he device operates both UCI (Ultrasonic Contact Impedance) and the Leeb (dynamic) probes. Getting benefit from two types of measurements is the ultimate advantage that a portable device can provide. UCI method for the hardness testing The UCI hardness measuring method complies to ASTM A1038. The ultrasonic contact impedance (UCI) probe is purposed to be used for hardness measuring in the case of the testing area minimal thickness (from 1 mm), objects of complex surface shape, and for measuring surface hardened layers hardness. Leeb method for the hardness testing The Leeb hardness measuring method complies to ASTM A956. The Leeb probe (D type) is used for hardness measuring of massive objects (more than 5 kg, and more than 10 mm) and made of steels non-ferrous metals, cast irons, coarse-grained materials, e.t.c. Also, Leeb method perfectly complements with UCI hardness measuring method when UCI method is not applied.
