DigiTest Automatic Modular Hardness Measurement System
There are already a number of different hardness testers for plastics and elastomers in the market and their application is often not very easy and user-friendly. Their operation is often very painstaking and time-consuming.
This was the purpose and reason behind the development of the new generation of digital hardness testers, and that includes our new Digi-Test modular automatic measuring system.
Digi-Test system comes with lots of features and important novelties, which allow a quick handling, and user-friendly operation
One of these specialties is its Modular Construction, which means that all of measuring devices can be used with different electronic units, and they can be exchanged without any difficulties. This modular construction, provides you with a solution that fully meets your requirements, at an attractive pricing package, which can be expanded and upgraded in the future.

A plug-in system recognizes the plugged test head automatically and the electronic unit read the corresponding measuring range as soon as the test head is connected with the pick-up bracket. Therefore you don't have to select the measuring range as you had to do with other models.
Another demand for our new development was the automation of A/B/O as well as D/C/DO durometer scales on moulded parts and plates, which was not possible before. All the measurement within IRHD and Durometer scales, can be performed fully automatically.
There had been uncertainities and complaints about the difficulties that operators have had with the calibration procedures of the products in the market. Using the new automatic Digi-Test, you don't have to worry about it, since the digital measuring system does not any longer require the calibration of the measuring distance. This means that different temperatures, doesn't have any influences on the reading accuracy of the tester.
For observation of the flow and recovery characteristics of test objects, you can also use Hysteresis function.

Data logging and evaluation of the measured values can be done through the integrated RS 232 interface in connection with HARDTEST® software, which runs under MS-Windows® 95, 98, 2000 and NT software.
Advantages:
- The highest precision and accuracy is guaranteed by the digital measuring system
- Automatic test, for hardness measurements on moulded parts, with complicated and uneven shapes, and plate materials in all durometer and IRHD ranges
- Operating mode Hysteresis (data logging in connection with PC), for observation of the flow and recovery characteristics of a test object under load and after removing the load.
- Plug-in system: The measuring devices will only be plugged into the pick-up bracket, the measuring devices are identified automatically, and therefore there is no need to adjust the measuring distance.
- A serial interface serves for data logging of the measured values to a PC
- Through a short recess time and easy operation and handling of this intelligent system, results can be obtained quickly and reliably. There is no need to do any preselections.
- Temperature does not have any influences on the measuring devices, and therefore there is no need to adjust the measuring distance.
- Measuring devices can be integrated into production lines, or automatic manufacturing processes
