EQUOTIP PICCOLO 2 - Portable Metal Hardness Tester
The Equotip Piccolo 2 is a revolutionary portable rebound hardness tester for precise measurements on most metals.

It integrates the display and a patented mechanism in one device where the impact body type D is launched and loaded for the next test in a single motion!

The Piccolo 2 is designed and manufactured with the quality and precision that is expected from Proceq’s Equotip product family and will comply even with the roughest manufacturing environments.

The basic kit comes with the bundle of the Piccolo device and Piccolink PC software, permitting full communication between tester and PC via USB.

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
•On-site testing in metal production and processing
•Excellent for material selection, acceptance and quality control tests
•Great also for production level testing on heavy and big parts
•Handy for difficult to access or confined test locations, also curved sample surfaces
Features
•Scratch proofed anodized aluminum housing - rugged and durable, compact in size at just 147.5 x 44 x 20 mm (5.71 x 1.74 x 0.79 in.)
•The large bright LCD display and the 3-button keypad allow easy readings and simple device control
•Rapid reload and trigger mechanism and automatic correction for impact direction
•Wide measurement range on most common hardness scales (HV, HB, HRC, HRB, HS, Rm)
•The user may upload and use custom conversions for uncommon alloys
•Internal, non-volatile data storage of 2'000 readings complete with tagging of important information like day, time, and detailed measurement statistics
•Intelligent on/standby power switching for optimum battery charge life
•Bidirectional USB communication enables remote control from the PC and allows free and easy updates of the instrument and Piccolink software via internet.
Product Variation
•Proceq offers a wide selection of support rings to permit testing on a great variety of part geometries.
•Proceq also offers a version of the Piccolo with fewer features, the Equotip Bambino.
