The micro-Vickers hardness tester HVS1000 is especially well suited for high precision hardness testing of small and/or thin specimens such as sheet, foil, coatings, ceramic products, and hardened layers. To ensure a satisfactory indentation, the HVS1000 features automatic loading and unloading operations, a very precise loading mechanism and a robust lever system. The micro-computer controlled system ensures an absolutely precise hardness measurement with adjustable dwell time.
