  • Various measurement patterns (straight, zigzag, circle, line set, random)

  • Instant HV hardness displayed on chart after measurements on carbonized layer

  • Various data outputs available – Measurement data, hardness distribution chart, case depth, max. value, min. value, mean value, dispersion, standard deviation, coefficient of variation, OK-NG criteria, conversion data, etc.

  • Upper/lower safety switches on Z-axis prevent damage to indenter and objectives
