Hardness testers for plastic and rubber

Automatic hardness testers, portables or bench top, for Shore and IRHD hardness methods in compliance with ASTM and ISO standards.
Easy measure on plastic and rubber materials and synthetic fibers.

SHORE
SHORE - Portable hardness tester for rubber, plastic, medical components, paper, sponge.

Shore A - B - C - D - D0 - 0 - 00 - E - M - 000 - 000S

Portable  hardness tester in compliance with ASTM 2240, ISO R.868, DIN 53505, JIS  K7215 standards.
Slim measuring nose to ensure exact measurement also  on small components.
Suitable for tires, roll, for soft flexible rubber,  plastic, PVC, polyester, neoprene, leather, thiokol, nitril rubbers,  etc.
Optional clamping system to apply a constant and vertical  pressure on all test piece, also on curved surfaces assuring accurate  results
The tester can be installed on the relative bench support for  laboratory purpose.

IRHD
Bench top hardness tester for automatic hardness measurements on plastic, rubber and synthetic fibers.
IRHD, Micro IRHD, Shore A, D, O, OO. In compliance with ASTM 48 / ASTM 1415 / ISO 7318 / DIN 53519-2 standards.
The  measurement cycle and the physical contact with the sample by the  indenter are managed by the software with phase control by load cells in  closed loop load control (patent AFFRI) this eliminates manual errors  and the influences of external vibrations.
With a single motion the  tester automatically descends toward the sample locking it and then  performs the hardness test measurement cycle.
Test measurements that are  fully controlled by the computer eliminates human error and increases  the accuracy, repeatability and reproducibility of the measurements.
The  Anvil specimen holder can accommodate predetermined sample holder for  each chord dimension of 'OR’ according to ASTM 1414 without having to  perform manual settings.
The measurements are stored in the computer hard drive and analyzed for statistical processes.

MICRODAKO FULLY AUTOMATIC CYCLE 2 models
MICRODAKO
MICRODAKO is a fully motorized hardness tester which determinate the hardness of thermoplastic, rubber and vulcanized rubber samples, in accordance to standardized methods IRHD and Shore.
High-defnition of 0.1 IRHD.
Load forces are easily selected from the PC and are automatically applyed trough load cells with elecronic controlled in Closed Loop. (Pat. AFFRI)
MICRODAKO is equipped with a touchscreen PC support and a powerful software to control the entire instrument: from the configuration of the test, to the complete management of statistics.
MICRODAKO can be configured with a wide range of accessories according to customer requirements.

FULLY AUTOMATIC CYCLE:

Just push the start button and the instrument will perform the testing cycle in automatic succession without breaching a phase:
1. Approach and contact with the sample (from 150 to 0 mm)
2. Clamping of the sample
3. Execution of measurement
4. Release of the sample
5. Transmission and display of test data
Fully motorized and automatic, the test is not affected by operator in uences and can easily be used by operators of entry level.
