The metal hardness tester PCE-Instruments PCE-2000N uses the Leeb method. This is a dynamic hardness testing method in which a hard metal ball strikes a test surface with a defined impact energy. The impact of the hard metal ball on the test surface results in plastic deformation of the surface at the point of impact. From this deformation, energy loss occurs, which is proportional to the hardness of the sample and can be determined from the ratio of the rebound velocity to the impact velocity of the sample.
The hardness meter from PCE Instruments can be used to measure six different hardness scales (HL, HV, HRA, HRC, HB, HV, HS) as well as ten different materials.
The hardness tester is delivered with impact device D, however optionally other impact devices (DC, DL, C, D + 15, E, G) can be connected for more specific applications. Additionally, data can be stored directly on a USB stick, which further extends the flexibility of this portable hardness tester. With an extremely easy-to-read OLED display, ergonomic design, and a user-friendly menu, operating the instrument is extremely easy.
