Nano Indentation



Significant improvements in product performance and substantial cost savings can be achieved through the analysis of thin films and coatings. A detailed understanding of nano-mechanical properties can lead to greater efficiency and provide opportunities for genuine competitive advantage.

The NanoTest range of instruments from Micro Materials offers the greatest level of versatility currently available, opening up significant new possibilities to the materials scientist. This is made possible through the NanoTest's unique modular design and comprehensive analysis packages. With the ability to choose from, or combine, Indentation, Scanning and Impact Testing operating modules, it is possible to create a materials testing system to suit your particular application.
