  • Endoscopes

    PCE Instruments

    Originally designed for the medical sector, endoscopes are the ideal tool for inspection and maintenance today. Endoscopes offer new perspectives to viewing the insides of machines. Thanks to their flexible fibre optic cables and light weight enclosure, these extraordinary endoscopes are the ideal tool for inspection and maintenance. Endoscopes can locate problems and conflicts of the system very easily and quickly, allowing for preventative measures to be taken without the need to dismantle the machinery first. Complex dismantling of machines is usually very time and cost intensive. With the help of endoscopes, inspections in an industrial sector can therefore be organized considerably faster, more aimed and more cost-efficiently Endoscopes are used mainly by electricians, security personnel, specialists in the professional sector, and mechanics of all types. All of our endoscopes are ***Not for medical use***

  • Cupping Tester

    PCE-CPT 20 - PCE Instruments

    PCE-CPT 20 is a cupping tester, or coating flexibility tester, used for testing the adhesion, elongation and deformability of paints, lacquers, varnishes, powder coatings and other surface coatings on metal sheets. Used in manufacturing production, paint shop and quality control applications, the PCE-CPT 20 cupping tester aids in determining coating strength, durability and elasticity. A mandatory test in Qualicoat and QIB accredited quality control laboratories, a cupping test, also referred to as an Erichsen test or dent test, uses a spherical punch to deform a sample. This deformation results in a cup-like bulge. When using the PCE-CPT 20 to perform a cupping test in accordance with the ISO 1520 standard, the sample should be placed coating side up so that the 20 mm spherical punch presses against the uncoated underside of the metal sheet. The cupping test is terminated when small cracks and/or detachments are observed on the bulged part of the sample. The PCE-CPT 20 cupping tester's easy-to-read display shows the bulge deformation distances that can be used to determine the coating's flexibility rating.

  • Durometers

    PCE Instruments

    A durometer gauge or durometer tester is needed to perform a durometer hardness test procedure. Durometer devices determine the surface hardness of many different materials, including polymers and elastomers. Each durometer or hardness tester measures the depth of an indentation in the material caused by a defined force of a given geometric presser foot. The depth of the indentation reflects the hardness of the material. A general distinction is made between static and dynamic methods. In traditional static tests, the test force is applied uniformly with increasing magnitude, while in dynamic testing methods, an instantaneous load is applied.

  • Handheld Tachometers

    PCE Instruments

    The handheld tachometer is a means of measuring revolutions within the industrial sector, either optically or mechanically. The handheld tachometer can be used for maintenance and calibration of machines that have moving parts. The principle is similar to a bicycle speedometer, where time will be measured until a wheel has completely turned. The handheld tachometer has two different measurement methods.The handheld tachometer may have a contact connection to the moving parts. Alternatively, the handheld tachometer works with reflecting marks. This will be secured on the moving part. As the laser strikes the reflecting mark during rotation, it will be reflected and detected in the handheld tachometer via a sensor. Rotation speed and speed can be seen on the handheld tachometer. The handheld tachometer may combine both possibilities (contact and non-contact connection). Next to the handheld tachometer you find other devices for measuring revolutions at PCE Instruments.

  • Accelerometers
