M502.216 Rockwell hardness tester (digital) — 5.2" colour touchscreen, 175 mm height capacity — Metav IndustryLine

The M502.216 is a digital Rockwell hardness tester designed for standardised hardness checks on steels, cast iron, copper and brass with a maximum workpiece height of 175 mm.

• 5.2" colour touchscreen with measurement display
• Automatic conversion across multiple Rockwell scales
• Suitable for steels, cast iron, copper and brass

Consistent hardness values for production and quality control

The tester provides stable, repeatable measurement results by using defined test forces and controlled dwell times, which reduces operator influence and increases throughput. With selectable test loads of 588.4 N, 980.7 N and 1471 N and a preload of 98.07 N, the instrument covers the common Rockwell ranges required in component inspection and incoming material control. Compliance with EN‑ISO 6508, ASTM E‑18, JJS Z2245 and GB/T230.2 ensures that results are directly comparable to international acceptance criteria, turning a single device into a reliable cornerstone of a quality management chain.

Intuitive touchscreen operation that speeds up workflows

The 5.2" colour touchscreen shows applied load, indenter type, dwell time and measurement unit, allowing rapid selection of test parameters and immediate readout of hardness values. Automated conversion between Rockwell scales simplifies documentation by presenting results in the required scale without manual calculation. This digital interface reduces training time, minimises input errors and supports a faster inspection cycle — a clear productivity advantage for workshop and laboratory environments.

Compact footprint with practical handling and accessories

With a compact footprint (546 x 182 x 755 mm) and a maximum specimen height of 175 mm, the instrument fits onto standard benches while still accommodating larger parts. Supplied accessories include comparison plates (HRC and HRB), a 120° diamond indenter, a HM indenter Ø 1.588 mm and three support fixtures (Ø150, Ø60 and V‑form), which provide immediate readiness for a variety of test scenarios. The solid construction and 90 kg mass contribute to measurement stability, helping to maintain reproducibility across repeated tests.

Clear benefits for decision making and process reliability

By combining direct visual feedback, standardised test procedures and automated scale conversion, the instrument reduces uncertainty in hardness evaluation and supports faster decision making on material acceptance or process adjustments. The digital display and predetermined test forces enable straightforward documentation of measurements, which supports traceability and auditability in production contexts where consistent part quality matters.
