AFM

Nanoindenter with atomic force microscope

The device allows to determine mechanical properties of materials in nano and micro scale (adjustable force range from 1 mN to 20 N) such as: hardness, Young's modulus, plastic and elastic work, wear, adhesion and cohesion of coatings. Equipped with atomic force microscopy module (AFM) it is possible to map surface topography and determine roughness parameters, such as Sa, Sq and Sy. It is possible to perform measurements for ceramic, polymer, metal and composite materials.
