MZT-500

The Mitutoyo MZT-500 series test system evaluates mechanical properties that conventional hardness testing machines for fine specimens are unable to measure.

Features & Benefits

The Mitutoyo MZT-500 Series test system models are exceptionally powerful tools in the fields of research and development and quality control. The MZT-500 can evaluate mechanical properties such as various CVD and PVD-deposited or generated films which include ion-plated films, hardness of ultra-fine cross-sections, bonding mechanical properties, and mechanical wear properties of carbon fibers, glass fibers, whiskers, etc.

  • Indentation factor and deformation characteristics in the load, dwell and unload phases are obtainable for use in determining properties of the specimen material
  • Hardness tests such as Vickers and Knoop hardness tests are supported
  • The balance lever vibration isolation mechanism reduces the effect of external vibrations on measurements
  • Indenter indentation depth can be measured up to a maximum of 20μm with a resolution of 0.1nm
  • Test forces between 0.1mN and 1000mN can be applied electromagnetically for evaluation of material properties in submicroscopic areas
  • Field-compatible form with cover for protection against dust and wind
  • The MZT-500L model features a manual XY stage
  • The MZT-500P model features an automatic XY stage
