EQUOTIP BAMBINO 2 - Portable Metal Hardness Tester
Direct and straightforward metal hardness testing � the Equotip Bambino 2 stands on its own, without separate indicating platforms and cables. The Equotip Bambino 2 is an economical and easy-to-use portable rebound tester for hardness measurements on most metals.
It combines a light and compact design and an innovative impact device D to offer an unmatched price/performance ratio.
The DL Accessory Kit is used to extend the range of applications. It allows testing in confined spaces and recessed surfaces through a long, slim testing nozzle.
Applications
�Suitable for most metals. Also useful for curved and recessed sample surfaces.
�Testing of metallic work pieces when the test indentation should be as small as possible, in line with non-destructive testing (NDT)
�Determination of the hardness of pre-assembled machines or large steel and cast constructions (e.g. in steel mills)
�Measurement in confined spaces along process chains (e.g. in heat treatment shops)
�Quick or manually documented acceptance tests and checks of incoming goods (e.g. from automotive sub-suppliers)
�Off-site testing (e.g. technical goods purchasing or consulting)
Features
�Rapid reload and trigger mechanism and automatic compensation for impact direction (360°)
�Wide measurement range on most common hardness scales (HL, HV, HB, HRC, HRB, HS)
�Immediate display of single readings in large bright digits + average of a measurement series
�2 in 1: Conveniently switch between universal Equotip D probe and slim DL nozzle (accessory)
�Scratch-proof, hard-coated, zinc alloy housing � rugged and durable, compact in size
Intelligent, on/standby power switching for optimal battery charge life
�Free firmware updates via the internet through USB
Product Variation
�The DL Accessory Kit expands the application range of the Equotip Bambino 2 by extending its reach to confined spaces through a long, slim test nozzle.
�Proceq offers a wide selection of support rings to permit testing on a great variety of surface geometries.
�Proceq also offers an advanced version of the Bambino 2, the Equotip Piccolo 2, which in addition offers measurement statistics, additional conversions, data storage and data management on a PC.
