CISAM-Ernst e-computest / Computest-Lite – portable Rockwell hardness tester
Applications
For quality control of metal parts directly in production or on site, when large or hard-to-transport products cannot be taken to the laboratory. It works on the Rockwell principle with a single diamond indenter for all metals; the instrument can be adjusted in all directions, so hard-to-reach locations can be accessed. Computest-Lite is a simplified version for hardness measurement only, without data management and sharing functions.
Key features
- One diamond indenter for the entire range of metals – no need to change indenters
- Measurement is not affected by yielding or bending of the part (manufacturer’s claim)
- Low weight: mechanical unit 750 g, electronic unit 360 g
- 6″ touch-screen tablet display; Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, micro USB, micro SD (e-computest)
- Functions: tolerances, statistics, sequences, files, barcode reader, geolocation
- ACCREDIA (ILAC MRA) calibration certificate on request
