Ultrasonics

Quick hardness testing wherever you wish.

As with all other hardness testers from

our MICRODUR line, the MIC 10

operates according to the UCI method

(Ultrasonic Contact Impedance). This

method enables quick and easy measure-

ment: position probe and read off the

value. This operational ease is achieved

because the Vickers diamond indent in

the material’s surface is electronically

measured and instantly displayed as a

hardness value without using the

cumbersome optical evaluation of a mi-

croscope normally associated with Vickers

hardness testing.

The small, handy MIC 10 makes life easy

for you: a hardness tester that you can

take anywhere - on scaffolds for testing

large containers and pipes, or for testing

components at any location. The small

narrow probes even enable you to make

measurements on positions difﬁcult to ac

cess, such as tooth ﬂanks or roots of gears.

You can measure in any direction, e.g.

in the horizontal or overhead positions.

The instrument carrier and prop-up stand

permits two hand operation, for correct

probe positioning and guidance.

Easy operation, high performance and unique data processing.

What this small instrument can do.

By pressing a key, you can display your

reading as a single value or as the active

arithmetical average value of a hardness

measurement set. Editing of erroneous

single values, without having to interrupt

the measurement set, is just as simple.

Adjustable alarm thresholds show you

critical measurement values both visually

and with audiable alarms. The calibration

parameters for measurements on low and

non-alloyed steel are preprogrammed into

the MIC10; however, the instrument can

be easily and quickly recalibrated to other

materials.

Instrument operation can be customized

for speciﬁc testing requirements:

unnecessary functions can be inhibited,

e.g. various hardness scales or the rec-

alibration capability. This reduces key

presses and simpliﬁes operation.

Saving data - unlimited possibilities.

We have given a lot of thoughts to the

subject of saving data and have come up

with the MIC 10 DL in order to give you

special support with repetitive testing and

documentation.

Memory cards are available in addition to

the internal memory of the instrument,

these not only store measurement data

but also material dependent instrument

settings and report formats. You are able

to calibrate the instrument automatically

for speciﬁc material using the informa

tion stored on the memory card. Reports

can be created in an individual format

and printed via the RS 232C interface of

the MIC 10. Once again, the operation is

simple: switch on data logger or insert a

memory card and measure.

Probe connector

After measurement, the complete

measurement set is automatically stored

at the next available location and can

be recalled at any time, displayed and

printed.

*Only for Data Logger version MIC 10 DL

Additionally, the user programs of the

UltraHARD series offer you a range of

possibilities for data transfer to a PC and

further data processing like evaluation,

statistics and documentation.
