Digital & Touch Screen Rockwell Tester Supplier for Kenya
MCS Mechatronic builds digital and touch screen Rockwell hardness testers in Kolhapur, India, and supplies them to heat-treatment shops, forging and casting units, fastener makers and quality labs across Kenya. Motorised loading, automatic dwell and a digital readout give fast, operator-independent HRC, HRB and superficial readings on the shop floor.
Kenya is East Africa's main industrial and logistics hub. Steel rolling mills around Nairobi and Mombasa, road, rail and housing projects, and KEBS testing requirements are driving investment in testing equipment, and Kenyan buyers often supply labs in Uganda, Tanzania and Rwanda as well. Rockwell testing is the quickest check on heat-treated and finished steel parts, which makes it the first hardness tester most plants buy.
MCS Rockwell Hardness Tester Range
Choose between the touch screen model for production lines and the digital model for workshops and labs. Both cover regular and superficial Rockwell scales.

Rockwell Tester Applications in Kenya
Our machines are used by steel rolling mills, construction and cement producers, building material labs, universities and technical institutes, and regional testing laboratories. Typical Kenyan applications include:
Heat treatment shops
HRC checks after hardening, tempering and case hardening
Forgings and castings
Incoming and final hardness checks on forged and cast parts
Fasteners and springs
Hardness verification of bolts, nuts, pins and spring steel
Automotive components
Gears, shafts and bearings on the production line
Sheet metal and non-ferrous
Superficial scales for thin sheet, coatings and soft metals
Training and research labs
Engineering college and polytechnic material labs
Testing Standards Supported
MCS Rockwell hardness testers conform to IS:3804, BS 10109-2 and ASTM E18, and the superficial models to IS:5073, BS 10189-2 and ASTM E18. These cover the test methods most steel and component buyers specify.
In Kenya, product conformity is overseen by KEBS (Kenya Bureau of Standards), and laboratories that issue accredited reports work under KENAS (Kenya Accreditation Service). Touch screen models store batch results with statistics and export them to PDF for your lab records and customer certificates.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you export Rockwell hardness testers to Kenya?
Yes. MCS Mechatronic manufactures digital and touch screen Rockwell hardness testers in Kolhapur, India, and exports them to Kenya, shipping to ports such as Port of Mombasa and Lamu Port.
Which Rockwell scales can the MCS tester measure?
Regular Rockwell scales A to V with 60, 100 and 150 kgf total forces, and superficial N, T, W, X and Y scales with 15, 30 and 45 kgf, using diamond and steel ball indenters.
Should I choose the touch screen or the digital Rockwell tester?
The touch screen RHT-TS is fully automatic and stores batch statistics, which suits production testing. The digital model is a simpler, economical choice for workshops, tool rooms and teaching labs.
Can it test round parts and do Jominy tests?
Yes. A V-groove table for round jobs and a Jominy end-quench test fixture are available as optional accessories.
Do you provide documents for KEBS PVoC clearance?
Imports into Kenya fall under the KEBS Pre-Export Verification of Conformity (PVoC) programme. MCS Rockwell testers conform to IS:3804, BS 10109-2 and ASTM E18, and results can be exported to PDF with batch statistics for your KEBS or client records. We supply the technical documents needed for PVoC inspection and clearance.
Can the machine run on the power supply used in Kenya?
The supply voltage depends on the model. Kenya's three-phase supply is 415 V at 50 Hz, so please mention your site voltage and frequency in your enquiry so we can confirm the right electrical configuration.
