The Newage® HMV-2 Series microhardness tester is designed for measuring the hardness of small parts and metallic structures used in precision equipment, processed surface layers, and metal plating layers. The HMV-2 Series is ideal for metallographic research and product quality control. It features an intuitive LCD touchscreen operator interface combined with an excellent optical system with a minimum unit of diagonal length measurement of 0.01 µm for extremely high accuracy.
The HMV-2 offers two modes of testing. The standard testing modes lets you setup your test for fast, efficient hardness testing based on only a test load and test duration period. However, the serial testing modes lets you generate a batch of indentations and then measure the diagonal length of those indentations.
The HMV-2 includes a variety of analysis functions including statistical calculations and data editing, hardness conversion and data output in tabular or graphical representations.
The HMV-2 Series can combine with our C.A.M.S. software for a complete microhardness testing system with computer controlled operation, setup and data management facilities. The C.A.M.S software features intelligent prompts which guide the user through various procedures and setup steps such as creating a traverse specification file. All traverse operations are controlled through drop down menus. Setting up to test multiple specimens is a simple “point-and-shoot” operation. Just locate the starting point and traverse direction on each sample and start the test. Up to 24 traverses can be setup as a part of a single procedure. And traverse setups can be copied and used to create other setups. Setup status indicators show selected tester parameters. Test results appear with color indications showing tolerance status. Test values can be easily displayed using other scales. Operators can also save the screen image in a bitmap format to file and append with detailed testing results.
Traverse reporting and data management is simple too. All the test results and description information for your part is stored in a database format. This allows you to select multiple traverses for comparison from a single part or from many different parts by overlaying them onto the same graph. You can perform statistical analysis using the corresponding test result from different traverses. Other graphically rendered information can include tolerances that are created for key individual tests in the traverse or a “tolerance band” for the entire traverse curve or for evaluating total case depths. |

Features & Benefits
- Standalone or Computer-based Operation & Control
The HMV-2 can operate as a standalone tester, or combine with our C.A.M.S. software for advanced microhardness testing. Incrementally expand system functiionality as your needs grow.
- Automatic Load Changing
Test loads from 10g to 2000g may be configured. Set dwell times from 5 to 999 seconds.
- Excellent Measurement Accuracy
The minimum length of diagonal measurement is 0.01 µm.
- Multiple Testing Modes
Perform standard tests based on a load and dwell time. Or perform serial testing on a batch of multiple impressions. Or, use our C.A.M.S. for computerized testing and data management.
