SONODUR 3 LITE LEEB

Essential Leeb hardness testing performance – proven quality for mobile applications.

Essential Leeb performance. Proven quality. The SONODUR 3 LITE LEEB is dedicated to pure Leeb hardness testing: focused, reliable, and uncompromising in accuracy. It uses the same high-quality probes and delivers the same precision as the SONODUR 3, while leaving out additional functions. Designed for straightforward operation, the LITE LEEB version omits camera features such as image storage, barcode naming, and DataMatrix adjustments.

UCI probe compatibility and Wi-Fi connectivity are not included; data transfer takes place via USB connection to your computer.

Alongside the Bluetooth-enabled probes, new wired Leeb probes now offer even greater flexibility. Choose from wired Leeb D and G or Bluetooth Leeb D, G, and DC probes.
