| Intelligent Workflow - 4 easy steps to run your test |
| Clemex CMT.HD is the top-of-the-line automated microhardness tester. With 4 easy steps, it provides added precision when positioning indents thanks to its integrated image stitching technique* and its layout tools. By visualizing the complete sample, no matter its size, traverses and/or patterns can now be mapped-out with unequaled precision. Auto focusing, and automatic measuring and reporting, allow this system to function unattended, thus increasing throughput and productivity |

See the Entire Sample
Place the sample in the sample-holder and, with one click, build a mosaic image of the sample* or scan the complete sample on a commercial flatbed and set reference points for one or more traverses using the annotation tools. |
 |
|
 |
Set-Up Traverses/Patterns
Open, modify, or create new traverses/patterns using reference points or lines. Traverses and patterns can be individually adjusted. |
 |
|
 |
Click & Walk Away
Clemex CMT.HD intelligently follows the predefined patterns, indents the sample, focuses when needed, measures, and generates data dynamically. Everything is automated, freeing users for other tasks. |

| Intelligent Macro View Images |
| Get a detailed image of the whole sample in seconds, using our exclusive Clemex Mosaic function* with the 2.5x objective or scan the complete sample holder using a commercial Flatbed scanner. No matter the size of the sample, get a crisp and precise image. Thanks to these unique feature developed by Clemex, obtain a perfect, high resolution, and evenly illuminated view of the full sample. With Intelligent Macro View Images an operator can see microstructural changes, Heat-Affected or Heat-Treated zones, and much more. Reference points for traverses can be set exactly where they are needed so that indents yield significant data. High-res mosaic images can be saved for later use, in analysis reports, or for archiving purposes. |

| Intelligent Layout Tools |
 Positioning reference points and measuring where traverses are to be placed is made easy using the annotation tools in Clemex CMT.HD. Conveniently located on the side of the Image Window, these tools perform multiple functions:
- Finding the center of the sample
- Drawing straight and/or parallel lines
- Adding ticker marks
- Adding measurements for report purposes
- And more…
 No matter the complexity of the pattern layout, combining intelligent Macro View images with annotation tools allows traverses and/or patterns to be positioned precisely where they are needed.

Clemex Macro View
Clemex CMT.HD is the first ever hardness tester to offer a complete, high definition image of a sample, no matter its size. This innovative feature provides an “aerial view” of the sample, offering sharp close-ups as well as global views. The Mosaic Image* makes it possible to position as many as 99 traverses – to within a few micron

Unique Reference Circle Tool
This exceptional tool allows indents to be positioned at precise distances from the sample’s edge. The Reference Circle is the ideal tool for irregular or curved samples, where indents need to be at a given distance from the edge. Used as a visual guide in conjunction with the Stage Pattern Window, once a radius is specified, the distance between indents is determined by a Y value that resets every time a field is added to the pattern. |

Multidirectional Traverses
Thanks to the powerful Clemex Hardness Tester stage control interface, single or multiple traverses/patterns can be rapidly created. Save, copy, or paste traverses/patterns to predefined locations with a simple click of the mouse. The T-Bar tool rotates traverses to any angle to ensure its perpendicularity with the sample edge or to accommodate sample tilt. Up to 99 patterns or traverses can be created, with each traverse comprising up to 32,000 indents. |
