PCE-900 Hardness test instrument for metals
9 materials pre-calibrated / Conversion into 6 different hardness scales
/ Type D impact probe
The Leeb Hardness Test Instrument PCE-900 measures the hardness of nine different metals using the Leeb rebound method. This means that with the hardness test instrument a firing pin bounces on a metallic surface and the intensity of the rebound is used as an indicator of the material hardness. The hardness test instrument PCE-900 measures the metal hardness in 6 different hardness scales, including: Rockwell, Vickers, Leeb, Brinell and Shore. A distinction is made between Rockwell B and C when measuring in the Rockwell scale.
The Leeb hardness test instrument PCE-900 comes with a type D impact probe as standard. This probe can be used for many measurements. Via the optional software, the measured values can be transmitted live to the PC. This makes the PCE-900 Leeb hardness test instrument an important instrument in the field of material inspection in goods control.
