• Measuring procedures, conditions and data are displayed clearly. (FM-810 Series)

BRINELL TESTING HV〈FM-810Series〉

• Accurate light load Brinell Testing is available as a standard function.
Necessary additional optional item “Ball Indenter φ1mm”. (FM-810 Series)

FRACTURE TOUGHNESS TESTING, Kc

• Kc value can be measured as a standard function according to JIS R 1607/ IF Method.
• Together with the value of Micro Vickers and Knoop,
it is very effective to evaluate the quality of new material. (FM-810 Series)

CLEAR VIEW AND EASY MEASURING

• The changeable aperture diaphragm and field aperture with a newly developed light
source mechanism provides more resolution at both high and low magnifications.
• Easily changeable color filter provides more resolution. (All Series)

A VARIETY OF SELECTABLE LOADS

HK〈FM-810Series〉
• Type of test load is selectable.
• You can select from an abundance of loads and have own load combination(Option/Negotiable)

X-Y COORDINATE DISPLAY

• Stage coordinate is indicated on the display in a link operation with
the digital microhead (option).

4 OBJECT LENSES (OPTIONAL)

• The new turret mechanism enables to observe wide specimen area
with up to 4 object lenses.
• Various magnifications easily available by rotating the correct objective into position.
• Placement of an indentation and its reading is more accurate and repeatable by
choice of proper objective.(FM-810 Series)

2 INDENTERS FOR HV/HK MEASUREMENTS (OPTIONAL) HBW〈FM-810Series〉

• The new turret mechanism enables to adapt 2 indenters simultaneously.
• It allows Vickers and Knoop tests without replacing the indenter. (FM-810 Series)
