Portable UCI Hardness Testers:

The Ultrasonic Contact Impedance (UCI) hardness testing method offers a fast, efficient, and user-friendly solution for non-destructive hardness measurements. By simply pressing and releasing the probe, accurate results are obtained in just 1-2 seconds. This makes it a preferred choice across industries for testing various materials and components.

A major advantage of UCI testing is its precise nozzle positioning, which makes it ideal for inspecting heat-affected zones (HAZ) of welds. Its superior accessibility also allows for effective hardness testing of gear teeth, bearings, and other complex structures.

The UCI method excels where traditional techniques fall short:

– Suitable for curved surfaces due to minimal contact requirements;

– Effective for testing non-monolithic components like bearings;

– No geometric limitations compared to stationary hardness testers;

– Works on thin-walled parts and blades.

With the Portable UCI Hardness Tester DELTA UCI-45, users can even measure the hardness of industrial and knife blades, offering unparalleled versatility for manufacturing, metalworking, and quality control.
