Video Micro Vickers Hardness Tester

Video Micro Vickers Hardness Tester is a specialized instrument used to measure the hardness of materials based on the Vickers hardness testing method. It is an advanced version of the traditional Micro Vickers Hardness Tester with the added capability of using a video camera and image analysis software to measure and analyze the hardness impressions accurately and precisely. The Vickers hardness test is a microhardness testing method that involves applying a specific load through a diamond indenter in the form of a square-based pyramid. The size of the indentation left on the material’s surface is measured, and the Vickers hardness value is calculated based on the indentation’s dimensions.

Video Micro Vickers Hardness Tester is a specialized instrument used to measure the hardness of materials based on the Vickers hardness testing method. It is an advanced version of the traditional Micro Vickers Hardness Tester with the added capability of using a video camera and image analysis software to measure and analyze the hardness impressions accurately and precisely. The Vickers hardness test is a microhardness testing method that involves applying a specific load through a diamond indenter in the form of a square-based pyramid. The size of the indentation left on the material’s surface is measured, and the Vickers hardness value is calculated based on the indentation’s dimensions.

The testing procedure using a Video Micro Vickers Hardness Tester is similar to the traditional Micro Vickers Hardness Tester. The indenter is pressed into the material surface using a specific load, and the indentation is captured by the video camera. The image analysis software then calculates the hardness value based on the indentation dimensions and provides the hardness measurement in the desired unit (usually in Vickers hardness number, HV). These are widely used in various industries, including materials science, metallurgy, research and development, quality control, and failure analysis. Their ability to provide precise and repeatable hardness measurements on small and delicate samples makes them invaluable tools for assessing material properties and characterizing microstructures.

Feature
