    1 Overview 1.1 Application range of measurement principle Physically seen, HMO tester is a really simple dynamic hardness tester. An impact sensor with a hard metal tip is pressed with spring force against the surface of the test object. The surface might be slightly damaged, if the impact module strikes onto the surface, resulting a lack of kinetic energy.
