Portable hardness tester for aluminium "INBC-01" MicroMet PLUS Series.

This model is a portable instrument suitable for the control of any type of aluminium, from the softest to the hardest. No particular experience or manual skill is required to the operator, as it is sufficient to place the hardness tester on the surface to be checked and press until it is completely in contact; the hardness value is displayed on the analog dial.

The scale of the latter has a high resolution; it is in fact divided into 100 Hba parts.

The support on the piece to be checked is very stable thanks to the specific 3-point contact system and the ergonomic shape of the handle. The value obtained on the Hba scale can be converted into HB, HR, HV, HW scales using the tables provided in the standard equipment.

The instrument is supplied in a case complete with spare indenter, two control plates, calibration key and support foot.
