6 Measuring
6.1 Specimen
1. The surface of the specimen shall be flat and parallel over an area to permit the presser foot to
contact the specimen over an area having a radius of at least 6 mm from the indenter point.
2. The Specimen shall be suitably supported to provide for positioning and stability.
3. The specimen shall be at least 6 mm in thickness unless it is known that results equivalent to the
6 mm values are obtained with thinner specimen.
The lateral dimensions of the specimen shall be sufficient to permit measurements at least 12 mm from
any edge.
6.2 Measure
1. To press the indenter on the surface of specimen and make sure the presser foot is contact
closely to it.
2. When data is stable, the buzzer will make a sound and the value will be shown until the next
measuring.
Test mode: maximum average value mode
Hardness value measured: 58,1 H
Current statistic times: 5
The measured number: 2
Current average value: 57,8 H
Range: 0,7 H
Multi-point measuring will be realized repeating above steps.
