Hardness tester TUKON 1202
The device enables hardness and microhardness measurements using the Vickers method. The hardness tester is equipped with a manual table with micrometric screw adjustments. The indentation size is measured manually through the microscope eyepiece. The measurements are recorded in the device, allowing for the calculation of basic statistical parameters such as mean and standard deviation, as well as automatic conversion to other hardness measurement scales.
Device parameters:
- Load range: 10 g – 1 kg
- Indenter type: Vickers, Knoop
Equipment is available in accordance with the Regulations for the Use of ACMiN's Research Infrastructure. (https://acmin.agh.edu.pl/home/acmin/5_Wspolpraca/Aparatura/Zasady_i_koszty_korzystania_z_infrastruktury_badawczej_ACMiN.pdf)
