The NEXUS 8000™ Series can be used for all hardness procedures according to standards.Rockwell, Superficial Rockwell, Brinell, Vickers and Knoop. But it also can do ball and indentation hardness testing for thermoplastics and the new Vickers depth (HVT) and Brinell depth (HBT) procedures.
The NEXUS 8000™ universal hardness testers includes all standard hardness testing methods between 1kgf/9.8N - 250kgf/2.45kN(8001), 3kgf/29N until 750kgf/7.35kN(8002),10kgf/98N until 3000kgf/29kN(8003). All procedures meet or exceed DIN, ISO, ASTM and JIS standards.
The tester contains high-quality mechanical components and is based on a load-cell, closed loop force feed-back system. The advanced user interface IMPRESSIONS™ controls the automatic testing procedure and offers many functions, such as fully automatic indent measuring and data storage. The integrated camera with calibrated zoom function guarantees fast, and accurate user-independent Vickers or Brinell measurement.
The NEXUS 8000™ Series represents universal hardness testing, in the most versatile meaning of Universal. Aircraft engine parts, automobile parts, production lines, general quality assurance and laboratory use, are all fields covered by the NEXUS 8000™ Series.
