How does Duramin 600 support your Hardness Testing

Perfected for the production environment

Designed to last, the Duramin-600 employs industry strength components from the 400 kg frame to the display.

Easy to operate

Simple clamping, combined with clean software and a touchscreen, ensure stress-free operating and result reporting.

High accuracy

The accurate and repeatable loading system based on load cell technology, combined with advanced software algorithms, ensures specific and repeatable image and hardness evaluation.

Perfected for the production environment

Easy to operate

High accuracy

Duramin-600 is available with a six-position automatic turret, facilitating exchange of up to three indenters and three objective lenses. The exchange of indenter and lens runs fully automatically in each model, helping to avoid calibration and potential human errors.

Simple testing

Duramin-600 is available with an optional motorized spindle. This avoids the repetitive manual adjustment of the test anvil.

Motorized Z-axis

The Duramin-600 is built using a rigid metal frame that is ideal for rough conditions.

Robust frame

A variety of clamping devices and fixtures are available.

Flexible clamping

Duramin-600 is operated from a large 15-inch color touchscreen.

Built-in touchscreen

Measurement data can be exported in various formats and saved on a USB stick or network.

Data exporting function

Test reports and measurement data can be easily generated and exported.

Built-in report generator

The machine automatically stops in the event of a work piece collision or any unexpected vibration or movement. This prevents damage to indenters and secures safety for operators.

Optimal safety
