Hardness tester has generous working
area
Test programmes are quick and easy to configure, being largely self-explanatory for both the test bench engineer and the user at the machine
In line with the demands of laboratory testing and productive environments, the Zwick ZHU250 universal hardness tester is geared for standards-compliant hardness testing according to Vickers, Brinell, and Rockwell, plus ball-pressure hardness testing Characterised by its intuitive operating concept, the ZHU250's test programmes are quick and easy to configure, being largely self-explanatory for both the test bench engineer and the user at the machine

Dual axial and torsion testing capability offered
Axial and torsion testing can be carried out in combination or separately on a new testing machine from the Zwick Roell Group.
All the settings and parameters are multi-lingual with a representation that is simple to understand, says Zwick.
This robust, highly accurate device is well suited for applications up to 250kg.
With its generously sized working area, measuring 300x250mm, the ZHU250 makes handling of large specimens such as alloy wheels child's play.
Particularly worth mentioning is that the indentations are measured optically parallaxis- and error-free using a measurement line concept integrated into the focusing screen.
This approach ensures high reproducibility of the test results.
With the launch of the ZHU250, Zwick says it is first to market with a hardness testing machine that accommodates the current contents of the DIN EN ISO 18265 standard to enable the revaluation of hardness values.
Now, in addition to the conventional tables thus far employed for steels and low-alloy steels and steel castings, the user is provided with standards-compliant revaluation options for materials made from aluminum and copper. Request a free brochure from Zwick Roell ...
