Vickers, Rockwell, Superficial Rockwell, Knoop, HVT, HBT, Ball indentation,
test forces 1kgf - 250kgf
W-8002 Universal hardness tester with video indent measuring system with Brinell,
Vickers, Rockwell, Superficial Rockwell, HVT, HBT, Ball indentation,
test forces 3kgf - 750kgf
W-8003 Universal hardness tester with video indent measuring system with Brinell,

The NEXUS 8000 Series can be used for all hardness procedures according to standards Rockwell, Superficial Rockwell,
Brinell, Vickers and Knoop. But it is also capable of ball and indentation hardness testing for thermoplastics and the new
Vickers depth (HVT) and Brinell depth (HBT) procedures. The NEXUS 8000 universal hardness testers include all standard
hardness testing methods between 1kgf - 250kgf(8001), 3kgf - 750kgf(8002), 10kgf - 3000kgf(8003). All procedures
meet or exceed DIN, ISO, ASTM and JIS standards.
