Combined hardness tester combines two methods of measuring hardness: Ultrasonic Contact Impedance (ASTM A1038) and Leeb (ASTM A956). This makes the device the most versatile portable device as it can be.
The main advantages of the Combined Hardness Tester NOVOTEST T-UD3:
ABILITY OF CONNECTING BOTH METHODS PROBES WITHOUT TURNING OFF THE DEVICE
The user can measure the hardness of completely different metal products of different shapes, structures, materials and the degree of surface preparation with same unit, just replacing probe.
SMALL PARTS MEASURING
Using the UCI, the operator can measure small products, we recommend parts weighing from 100 gr and a thickness from 1 mm, and when using theUCI Probe Test Stand NOVOTEST, even thinner.
COMPLEX SHAPE PRODUCTS MEASURING
Also, with the help of the ultrasonic probe, the user will be able to solve the tasks of measuring the hardness of grooves, surfaces of small radius, inaccessible places and products of complex shape.
SMALL IMPRINT OF UCI TYPE PROBE
Due to the fact that the UCI probe has a penetration depth of only a few microns, it becomes possible to work with products with high print requirements (the maximum non-destructive method is required), as well as measure the the hardness of hardened layers, such as nitriding and cementation.
MEASURING PARTS WITH BAD SURFACE
Using a dynamic probe (Leeb probe), the user can test the hardness of massive products with poorly prepared surfaces. The method also allows to measure products with a coarse-grained structure without a significant dispersion of measurements.
CALIBRATED FOR DIFFERENT MATERIALS AND SCALES
Thanks to the presence of built-in calibrations of the Leeb probe for various materials and scales, the device becomes a universal tool for measuring hardness for most common metals.
BUILT-IN CAMERA
The device has a built-in camera, which allows the user to store a measurement archive of images of the tested objects with binding of hardness to a specific place on the product.
Combined Hardness Tester NOVOTEST T-UD3 can be used with special soft for operate with saved archive of measurements. Or each saved recording cab be printed throug wireless printer that can be additionaly completed with the device.

Special type of probe with increased load. To carry out the measurement, it is necessary to apply a load of 10 kgf (set automatically by the probe).Low surface cleanliness requirements.
Heat-treated and cemented parts with poorly prepared surface.
Measurement on blades, on the inner surface of pipes, holes with high roughness.
50N (5 kgf)
The main type of probe for solving most hardness measurement tasks. To carry out the measurement, it is necessary to apply a load of 5 kgf (set automatically by the probe).Medium surface cleanliness requirements.
Heat-treated and cemented parts, such as shafts, turbines, gears, teeth, welds, heat affected zones.
Measurement in grooves, on teeth, in grooves, on radius surfaces.
Measurement on the blades, on the inner surface of the pipes, holes.
10N (1 kgf)
Probe with reduced load – designed to measure the hardness of products with increased requirements for the size of the print (polished, polished surfaces), to measure the hardness of thin surface hardened layers. For the measurement, a load of 1 kgf must be applied.More demanding on surface cleanliness, compared with U1 (50N).
Nitrided and cemented surface layers of molds, dies, dies, thin-walled parts.
Bearings, tooth flanks, saws.
Hardness measurement of thin hardening coatings.
Measurement on products after thorough machining.
