NOVOTEST T-D2 Leeb Hardness Tester

The Leeb Hardness Tester NOVOTEST T-D2 correspond to to ASTM A956 is the most popular metal hardness testing method in the world, because of very easy to use and does not require special skills from the operator. The probe is mounted on the sample, and by pressing the release button, measurement is performed, and the hardness value is displayed on the device’s screen. The method works well with low alloy steels, stainless steels, as well as non-ferrous metals.

It is usually used for bulk products, without thorough surface preparation and is less sensitive to inhomogeneous or coarse-grained materials.

Advantages

• Hardness testing of standard and alloy steels.
• Hardness testing of cast irons and non-ferrous metals.
• Tensile strength testing of carbonized steel products in the pearlite stress grade.
• Implementation of the rebound method (Leeb).
• Allows the user to test products with a weight greater than 5 kg and a thickness greater than 10 mm without additional actions.
• Wide range of hardness measurement
• Allows testing of products with coarse, uneven structure (castings, forgings).
• Ease and simplicity of set-up and operation.
