DuraScan – Vickers Hardness Tester​

DuraScan – Advanced Vickers Testing with Full Automation and Maximum Repeatability
The DuraScan series from ZwickRoell (through its subsidiary EMCO-TEST) is a market-leading solution for microhardness testing according to the Vickers, Knoop, and Brinell methods. With a load range from 0.25 g to 62.5 kg, it covers everything from thin surface coatings to solid material specimens—with the highest possible precision and repeatability.

These machines combine efficiency, flexibility, and process reliability—making them ideal for both routine quality control and advanced analysis in research and product development.

Model Overview:

• DuraScan 10 / 20 – Semi-automatic models for simpler testing needs. Ideal for manual selection of measurement points in combination with automatic data entry, reading, and calculation.
• DuraScan 50 / 70 / 80 – Fully automated models for complex and extensive testing tasks. The entire test sequence—from setting the indentation parameters to interpreting and displaying the hardness value—is performed automatically, eliminating operator influence and ensuring maximum reproducibility.

The system is controlled via intuitive software, which also allows for easy and traceable test planning, data analysis, and report generation. The machines are designed to meet the requirements of standards such as ISO 6507, ASTM E384, and ISO 4545.

Designed and manufactured in Europe, and backed by ZRS for installation, calibration, and service, the DuraScan series is the obvious choice for laboratories that demand top quality in every measurement.
