- Application: This ultrasound hardness testing device is ideally suited for mobile hardness testing, where the main emphasis is on obtaining rapid and precise results
- Principle: The SAUTER HO measures using a Vickers diamond tip, which is pressed into the test piece with a defined force. After that the tip is moved into high-frequency ultrasound vibrations. The hardness is derived from the attenuation
- Advantages compared with Rockwell and Brinell: Less test force and therefore only microscopic, small penetrations means that the testing is less destructive
- Advantages compared with Vickers: Demanding optical measuring is not required. You can therefore carry out measurements directly on-site, for example, on a permanently installed workpiece
- Advantages compared with Leeb: The high requirements for the weight of the test object are no longer required, in most cases
- Scope of supplies: Display unit, UCI sensor unit, transport case, software to transfer the saved data to the PC, accessories
