Rockwell hardness tester Versitron® Series

The Versitron Rockwell hardness testing system is the industry workhorse of hardness testing - designed to meet the toughest challenges: clamp large parts, operate in poor environments, and test high volumes - all with less service problems and less operator skill requirements. The Versitron Series is a unique hardness testing system which provides its users with the benefit of the top-loading and test surface referencing technology. Applying both the pre-load and full load in one test cycle makes it possible to perform a test in as little as 4 seconds! This hardness testing machine is ideal for applications ranging from high volume to sampling, from production floor harsh environments to the lab and from testing awkward shaped parts to precise small part testing applications. The clamping ability is an inherent part of this Rockwell hardness tester and provides the user with the ability to clamp and hold parts in place prior to testing with up to 240 foot pounds (325 Nm). By clamping instead of using jack screws or cutting specimens, the test accuracy is improved and the testing time is decreased. The removable clamping shield protects the diamond indenter from being struck by the specimen during handling and when test samples are clamped the indenter is protected from damage resulting from test samples shifting under load.
