A hardness test is non-destructive testing methods that determines the hardness of a material by measuring the depth of the penetration from an indenter onto it. Hardness testing instruments are typically designed to preform one of the three main methods of hardness testing: Vickers, Rockwell, and Brinell hardness testing. However, some may be capable of performing more than one method with universal hardness testing machines being capable of all three.
