Features of Microindentation Tester (MHT3)
Instrumented indentation testing (IIT) for hardness and elastic modulus
Depth-instrumented indentation: the penetration depth is continuously monitored as a function of the force applied in order to measure not only the hardness of materials but also the elastic modulus
From nano- to macro indentation in one single instrument * Microindents from low depths (a few nm for surface detection) to high depths (maximum 1 mm) * Large range of force applied (from 10 mN to 30 N) in order to match the sample characteristics * High force range specifically useful for rough surfaces
High precision on depth and force for accurate microindentation measurements * Two independent sensors: one for force and one for depth for accurate metrological measurements * High frame stiffness: 2 x 108 N/m for increased depth accuracy
Depth-profiling of material properties * Depth profiling with Continuous Multi Cycles (CMC): hardness and elastic modulus as a function of penetration depth * Force- and depth-controlled modes * Visual matrix with multi-selection of indent positions on a specific surface area * Multiple modes of testing: user-defined sequences to be able to set the parameters for testing conditions as desired
