Product Overview

The NOVOTEST T-UD3 is a professional portable combined hardness tester that integrates Ultrasonic Contact Impedance (UCI) and Leeb rebound testing methods into a single, highly versatile instrument. Designed by NOVOTEST, the T-UD3 enables accurate hardness testing across a wide range of materials, component sizes, and surface conditions.

This dual-technology capability makes the T-UD3 ideal for field inspections, quality control, maintenance, production testing, and material verification, especially where traditional bench testers cannot be used.

Key Features
