Hardness Testers
Shimadzu’s range of hardness testers – including conventional JIS-compatible models and models utilizing new principles of operation – can evaluate the hardness (strength) of all materials from steel through to new materials and from micro parts through to large products.
The Shimadzu Mooney Viscometer features excellent performance of the Mooney viscosity test with high efficiency ensured by controlling system.
HMV-G Series
Micro Vickers Hardness Tester
Standardized automatic length measurement function using a CCD camera built in a novel G frame (G21 series)
Easy-to-use software (G21 series)
Capable of automatically recognizing the total image of the sample and the sample edges (FA type)
DUH-211/DUH-211S
Dynamic Ultra Micro Hardness Tester
New material strength testing systems for materials in the micro field that cannot be handled by regular testers.
A new evaluation system for measuring the material strength of micro regions, such as semiconductors, LSI, ceramics, hard disks, vapor deposited films, and thin coating layers, not addressed by previous hardness testers. It can also be used to evaluate the hardness of plastics and rubbers.
Powerful Tools for Surface Strength Evaluations on Every Type of Material
This instrument uniquely measures dynamic indentation depth, not the indentation after the test. This in turn permits measurement of very thin films and surface (treatment) layers that are impossible to measure with conventional methods. Additionally, this same method supplies the data needed to calculate elastic modulus on the test specimens.
MCT Series
Micro Compression Tester
Evaluates Compression Strength of Various of Micro Specimens.
The Shimadzu micro compression testers MCT Series evaluate the strength of micro components, micro particles generated in powder processing and fine fibers used in new materials.
