Equotip 550

  • Equotip enables portable hardness inspection of almost any object, polished parts and heat-treated surfaces.
  • The hardness measurements are made by using the dynamic rebound testing method according to Leeb, the static Portable Rockwell hardness test and the Ultrasonic Contact Impedance (UCI) method.
  • The rugged Swiss-made metal NDT hardness testers are designed for portable hardness testing in the lab, in the workshop, at production facilities or on site.
Equotip 550 Leeb D Equotip 550 UCI Equotip 550 Rockwell
  • Based on the dynamic (rebound) method
  • Broad Hardness Scales Coverage (HV, HB, HRC, HRB, HRA, HS)
  • The UCI (Ultrasonic Contact Impedance) method uses the same pyramid-shaped diamond as a conventional Vickers hardness tester.
  • Measurements in HV with automatic integrated conversions to HB, HRA, HRB, HRC and many more common scales
  • Particularly suited for scratch sensitive and polished parts or on thin parts, profiles and pipes
  • Traditional Rockwell static test method
  • Measurements in HRC and HV with automatic integrated conversions to HB, HRA, HRB
    and many more common scales
