UCI Hardness Tester: The Most Reliable Modern Hardness Tester Available Now

The term “Hardness” is defined as the ability of any material to resist indentation. It can be determined by measuring the depth of the area of the indentation. Hardness is not a physical property of material rather it is simply a response to a specific test. So, the tensile strength of any material can be determined by testing its hardness using various tools. A traditional hardness tester is gigantic, bulky, and unportable. This is why materials have to be brought to the tester if the measurement has to be done urgently. But, some metals are not easily transportable. In such cases, portable hardness testers are very useful. One such amazing innovation is the ultrasonic hardness tester. This instrument is light-weight and has a compact size. Therefore, users can bring the tester and can measure metals anywhere they want. The ultrasonic contact impedance hardness tester or simply known as UCI hardness tester is a non-destructive tool as the measurement is done using ultrasonic vibrati...
