Tech/Engineering - Engineering: Industrial / Control system
English term or phrase: kp
Test loads of digital hardness tester: 1 kgf to 10 kgf with steps of 0.5 kp

Hardness tester measures hardness of metal materials, not pills.
In Kudoz I found replies that it is kilo-pound, which is a measurement of force... Not sure whether kilopound is also applicable here.

Explanation:
The kilogram-force (kgf or kgF), or kilopond (kp, from Latin pondus meaning weight), is a gravitational metric unit of force. It is equal to the magnitude of the force exerted by one kilogram of mass in a 9.80665 m/s2 gravitational field (standard gravity, a conventional value approximating the average magnitude of gravity on Earth).[1] Therefore one kilogram-force is by definition equal to 9.80665 N.[2][3] Similarly, a gram-force is 9.80665 mN, and a milligram-force is 9.80665 µN.

Перевод там же на русском:
Килограмм-сила (кгс или кГ) равна силе, сообщающей телу массой один килограмм ускорение 9,80665 м/с² (нормальное ускорение свободного падения, принятое 3-й Генеральной конференцией по мерам и весам, 1901). Единица силы системы единиц МКГСС.
Килограмм-сила примерно равна силе, с которой тело массой один килограмм давит на весы на поверхности Земли (примерно, потому что вес немного зависит от широты, так как от неё зависит ускорение силы тяжести g ввиду не шарообразной формы земли, которое имеет разное значение на полюсах и экваторе).
В ряде европейских государств для килограмм-силы официально принято название килопонд (обозначается kp).

Это одна велиличина, только непонятно, почему ее сначала написали в кг и потом в понд???

Извините за "велиличина", хотела сказать одна и та же величина

Hardness is the measure of how resistant solid matter is to various kinds of permanent shape change when a force is applied.

Kilopond (kp) – Not to be confused with a pound. A unit of force also called a kilogram of force. Still used today in some applications, but not recognised by the SI system, making it a bad choice for modern applications.
1 kilopond = 1 kgf.

neutral  dacs04: Там написано, что нагрузка варьируется от 1 до 10 кг силы, с шагом 0.5 kp. Полкилофунта - это около 225 кг силы, намного больше, чем весь диапазон. Вероятно, в исходном тексте опечатка или две в единицах измерения силы.
