Revetest Xpress (1N - 200N)

The REVETEST Xpress is the cost effective solution for Industrial and Quality Control (QC) applications.

This Xpress allows measurement of adhesion, scratch resistance and hardness with a very user-friendly, simple interface.

The instrument is delivered with software that allows the user to predefine the measurement protocol on a stand-alone computer. After the protocol has been defined, it is exported via a USB memory stick which is then inserted into the touch screen monitor of Revetest Xpress. A simple press of the "start" button on the touch sreeen will then start the test procedure. No further operator interaction is necessary to run the test. At the conclusion of the test, the user has the choice to study the sample either directly on the Xpress (if equipped with the microscope option) or on another optical microscope.
