Koopa Portable Hardness Tester is the fastest hardness tester which ever designed. It is capable of three tests per second. Its unique design, precision, speed and flexibility in choosing hardness scales and type of materials, make it suitable for testing of almost all metals in industry. Two models of impact devices with three energy are available.

   The Koopa Portable Hardness Tester is the easiest, fastest and the most accurate hardness tester. There is no need to charge the impact device manually, you simply push a button on probe and the impactor is activated with a constant energy (by an electromagnetic field, in contrast with custom probe which is activated by spring). Therefore the impact device is small and as fast as three tests per second and you can work with one hand. The tester is a ‘plug and play’ device. It means it eliminates probe-to-system reconfiguration. For example ,if a user requires another probe for a specific measuring application, he simply plugs in an optional Koopa probe and the tester automatically identifies the device.

   The materials can be tested in five directions ideal for use on internal surfaces of castings, fabricated assemblies and on large cumbersome samples. The external impact device has a tungsten carbide tip and is designed to handle most hardness requirements. Users, who requires documentation and data storage in personal computers, can use the USB port to transfer the data to a flash memory.
