The DuraVigo-150 is a sturdy closed-loop Rockwell-hardness tester, supporting all Rockwell and superficial Rockwell scales between 3 and 250 kg. The electronic power control system offers high accuracy, efficiency, and flexibility, requiring minimal maintenance. As a vigorous workhorse, the DuraVigo-150 is constructed with a steel C frame for stability and padded with durable rubber to prevent dents and paint chippings from dropped components.
No matter what material you work with, with Struers you can be sure your lab has the right setup to meet the standards you need, with optimal reproducibility and repeatability of results.
The DuraVigo-150 Rockwell hardness tester offers flexibility and conformity to ISO and ASTM standards with its permanent electronic test force monitoring and automatic test cycle. Its direct sub-micron depth gauging system, precisely aligned with the indenter’s axis, prevents measurement errors caused by system deformation. This ensures accurate and reliable hardness readings, making it an ideal choice for quality control in various industrial applications.
With enhanced functionality and connectivity, the new DuraVigo-150 facilitates effortless transfer of test results to various data storage mediums through its conveniently positioned USB port. Its 6.5” capacitive touch color display, ensures operational precision and swift response.
The accompanying software boasts an intuitive interface and large buttons, simplifying operation. Noteworthy features include high-/low-limit settings displayed in green and red, comprehensive statistics overview, and additional functionalities like hardness conversion and surface corrections, making it indispensable for quality control across diverse industrial sectors.
Robust display unit with touchscreen and simple user interface.
The all-metal machine frame is suitable for the toughest environments, with rubber padding to prevent paint damage from falling specimens. A truly vigorous Rockwell hardness tester.
The entire test is fully automatic, and it can be started with a push of a button. This includes preloading, loading, unloading, and hardness evaluation.
Different types of samples can be handled, due to the wide selection of anvils and clamping devices that can be used with DuraVigo-150.
The DuraVigo-150 utilizes load cell technology to ensure accurate and repeatable test loads. This eliminates the load undershoot or overshoot typically associated with dead-weight load systems.
The protective clamping device can be removed without tools, providing unobstructed access to the Rockwell indenter. Easily switch between diamond and ball indenters without long work interruptions.
Effortlessly send your measurement results to your PC or local network. Use the easily accessible USB port with a thumb drive, or a USB cable and the Utility software to directly write the data to Excel.
Maximize efficiency with test Programs! Save scale, conversion, light, and time settings effortlessly. Easily retrieve parameters for specific samples with just 3 clicks. Ideal for applications with diverse scales or using the same scale for different materials.
