Professional Digital Shore Durometer for Lab & Production

Unlock precision in hardness testing with the DRIVE Series Digital Shore Durometer. Designed for professional laboratories, this versatile instrument offers extreme accuracy and repeatability for testing rubber, plastics, and elastomers. Fully compliant with ASTM D2240, ISO 48-4, and ISO 868, the DRIVE Series ensures your quality control meets international standards.

Whether functioning as a stand-alone handheld device or integrated with a benchtop stand for automated testing, the DRIVE Durometer connects seamlessly to the HardnessCheck software for automatic data storage, curve acquisition, and SQL database management—providing total traceability for your results.

Dual Operation Modes

Manual Handheld Mode
Perfect for on-the-spot checks. Simply press the instrument against the sample. The integrated Approach Force Control helps the operator maintain consistent pressure, reducing human error during manual testing.

Benchtop Stand Mode (Optional)
Attach the unit to the optional support stand for fully automated testing. This eliminates operator influence entirely, ensuring maximum repeatability. Includes adjustable distance (max 160mm) between sensor and sample.

Key Features & Software Capabilities

✔
Comprehensive Environmental Data: Unlike standard testers, the DRIVE Series measures Ambient Temperature, Sample Surface Temperature, and Relative Humidity along with hardness, providing a complete picture of test conditions.
✔
Datagest Traceability Software: When paired with the optional software, you get total traceability. Export results to SQL databases, filter/analyze data, set tolerance limits, and generate multi-instrument test reports automatically.
✔
Accredited Calibration Option: We offer an optional ACCREDITED calibration certificate. This rigorous calibration covers dimensions, force application, indentor displacement, and test duration to ensure absolute conformity.
✔
Ergonomic & Durable: Internal mechanical parts are crafted using modern CNC machines for frictionless movement. Features a large 25x50mm backlit LCD and a rechargeable lithium battery (8 hours continuous use).
