HIGH SPEED MEASUREMENT

FEATURES

High-end Vickers/Knoop/Brinell tester with low and high force ranging from HV0.02 to HV50. Closed Loop, Load Cell, Force Feedback technology for a reliable fast measurement procedure. Modular design, fits to almost any budget.

The NEXUS 4000 series of Micro/Macro Vickers, Knoop & Brinell hardness testers combines a practical design with universal specifications. State-of-the-art closed loop, load cell technology and a - Patent Pending - force feedback system, assure fast test results at the highest possible accuracy.

Unmatched consistency, repeatability and reliability now become affordable. The closed loop system applies force,calculates, filters and controls digital data in a 32-bits embedded CPU system.

The tester has a 4 position turret which can be customized by using different indentors, objectives, stages or Impressions indent measuring system, meeting your particular request and budget.

The NEXUS 4000 series meets or exceeds, ISO, ASTM, JIS (Nadcap) standards.

TEST PROCEDURE CONTROL

Traditional hardness testing systems use a “dead weight” mechanical design or inaccurate spring force mechanism to applythe test force. Such systems are lacking test control, as there is nofeed-back on the actual applied force.

The Closed Loop technology with a force feedback system, as applied in the NEXUS 4000 Series, constantly measures and controls the applied force on the tester’s indentor and tested surface. Consequently, this superior control system offers an almostunlimited selection of test loads and test rates for virtually any testcondition imaginable.

ACCURACY, RELIABILITY & EFFICIENCY

Elimination of overshoot due to sophisticated algorithms detectingcontact between the indentor and the object’s surface.The application and removal of the test force is fully automatic, aswell as the positioning of the indentor and the positioning of the pre-determined objective. The result is a flawless absolute vibration free operation while reducing the operator’s efforts to a minimum.

UPGRADE YOUR NEXUS LATER

The NEXUS 4000 series offers upgrades on request. For instance, your budget and your requirements allow a Vickers tester. Your choice could be a NEXUS Vickers/Knoop tester 4300. At any moment after your purchase you can upgrade your tester from for instance Vickers to Macro, Micro-Vickers or even to Brinell at fixed prices. The upgrades are possible in the 4300 or 4500 range. It requires simply a phone call to your distributor or toINNOVATEST® and the upgrade does not take more than a couple of hours, including calibration. Investing in a NEXUS series tester guarantees access to almost any load application in the Vickers, Knoop and Brinellrange up to 62.5kg.

High accuracy, flexibility and pure efficiency are synonyms for the NEXUS 4000 series.
