Description
The iMicro nanoindenter features the InForce 1000 actuator for performing nanoindentation and universal nanomechanical tests. The InView software is a flexible, modern software package that makes nanoscale testing easy. The iMicro is a compact platform with the high-speed InQuest controller and vibration isolation gantry built in to the enclosure. An extensive range of materials and devices can be tested, including metals, ceramics, composites, thin films, coatings and polymers.
