Professional Portable Asker C Hardness Tester
The TIME5432C Asker C Hardness Tester is a professional portable hardness tester designed for accurate hardness measurement of microporous materials commonly used in the rubber and plastics industry. Ideal for footwear manufacturing, EVA foam production, sponge materials, cellular rubber, and other microporous materials, the TIME5432C delivers reliable Asker C hardness measurements with excellent repeatability. Equipped with a high-precision LVDT displacement sensor, the instrument provides stable measurement performance and dependable accuracy, making it suitable for quality control, production, laboratories, and incoming material inspection.
The TIME5432C Portable Asker C Hardness Tester measures across the full Asker C hardness range from 0 to 100 Hc with a resolution of 0.1 Hc. Furthermore, the instrument offers three measurement modes, including real-time measurement, peak value hold, and timed hold, allowing operators to optimise testing procedures for different materials and production requirements. Automatic zero-point calibration helps maintain measurement accuracy while reducing setup time before inspection.
Designed for Industrial Inspection
The bright OLED display provides clear hardness readings together with an intuitive menu interface for simple and efficient operation. In addition, programmable upper and lower hardness limits with audible alarm notifications simplify PASS/FAIL inspections during production and batch testing. The instrument automatically calculates average values while removing abnormal readings, helping improve measurement consistency and minimise operator influence.
The TIME5432C Portable Asker C Hardness Tester stores up to 200 averaged measurement records for efficient quality documentation and inspection management. Moreover, optional PC software enables measurement data to be transferred via USB to Microsoft Word or Excel for reporting, analysis, and long-term record keeping. The built-in rechargeable battery provides up to 24 hours of continuous operation, making the TIME5432C an ideal solution for routine hardness testing in footwear manufacturing, foam production, and rubber processing industries.
