Future-Tech FLV-10AR Hardness Tester

The FLV-10AR is part of the new generation of hardness testers. Allowing for multiple hardness scales, this is a modular system that can be configured to suit specific requirements and budgets. The magnification can be tailored to suit the application and multiple indenters can be fitted to offer greater versatility carrying out micro-Vickers, Vickers, Brinell and Knoop hardness testing.

 

  • The Future-Tech FLV-10AR with load cell technology is a high performance universal hardness tester.

    The load cell type loading mechanism is offered as a alternative technology to dead weight systems. Calibration advantages are offered on load cell and each load is certified independently to ensure calibration across the range of loads available.

    The ultra-wide range of 10g to 10kg is offered to effectively replace a range of hardness testers to offer both micro hardness and conventional Vickers hardness with the additional facility for low load Brinell. One unit can cover the very wide range from the "micro" to the "macro".

    Manufactures with a precise Central Processing Unit and feedback control system stabilises the test load accuracy across the range of hardness for a hardness methods micro Vickers, Vickers and Brinell. The test load rage is offered at 1 gram increments to allow for adaptation of hardness load to meet the most demanding hardness test and material control applications.

    when a requirement for a Multi-Function for Hardness Testing, offering the most comprehensive hardness scales we can test more material types.

    The advantage for many testing labs is combining different test methods in one Universal hardness tester, which allows significant cost and space savings, flexibility and user-friendliness. Spectrographic offers a competitive range of dead-weight models up to best selling load-cell type systems. These Universal hardness testers can cover Rockwell Regular, Superficial as well as Brinell and Vickers scales in one single machine with support from an established manufacturer and a responsive local support company.
