When it comes to quality control in metal manufacturing, accurate hardness testing isn’t just a best practice—it’s a necessity. Yet many teams still struggle with inconsistent readings, complex procedures, or limited material compatibility. That’s where the HYC-150 Magnetic-Lock Rockwell Hardness Tester stands out—not as another option, but as a smarter solution designed for real-world applications.
The HYC-150 isn't just compliant—it's engineered to meet GB/T 230.2 and ISO 6508 standards, ensuring traceable results that pass audits from ISO-certified labs to on-site production floors. With an average repeatability of ±0.5 HRC across 10 repeated measurements (steel test block A), this instrument reduces human error by up to 40% compared to traditional manual models.
Whether you're testing hardened tool steel (HRC 50–65), soft aluminum alloys (HB 40–100), or copper-based materials (HRB 60–85), the HYC-150 adapts seamlessly. Its interchangeable indenter system supports standard Rockwell scales (A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, K) and is widely used across automotive, aerospace, and machining industries—from bearing manufacturers to CNC part suppliers.
One-handed operation via its magnetic switch allows users to secure the device in seconds—no calibration tools needed. In field trials conducted at 3 major OEMs, new operators achieved consistent readings within 15 minutes, cutting training time by over 60% compared to legacy equipment.
Unlike older models that rely on visual alignment, the HYC-150 uses a multi-angle contact sensor that adjusts for surface irregularities—critical when testing castings or thin-walled components. Independent lab tests show a 98% consistency rate in repeat measurements under varying conditions (temperature range: 15°C–35°C).
Engineers often choose between precision and portability—but not anymore. Whether in a climate-controlled lab or a noisy workshop, the HYC-150 delivers reliable data without sacrificing mobility. For companies managing multiple sites, this means standardized testing across locations and reduced need for duplicate instruments.
“The HYC-150 has become our go-to for both R&D and final QC—it’s accurate, fast, and doesn’t require constant supervision.” — Quality Manager, Automotive Tier-1 Supplier
