Micro Materials is constantly developing and refining equipment that consistently sets new benchmarks for performance and adaptability.
The current product range continues that tradition of innovation and functionality. From single-test instruments to multi-functional vacuum systems, we have solutions to suit a wide range of applications and budgets.
The NanoTest Vantage
The NanoTest Vantage is our flagship system. A multi-functional, multi-scale and multi-environment nano-mechanical testing instrument. The NanoTest Vantage is a fully modular system that allows the user to configure the system to meet their individual needs. The system can be expanded at a later date to include further modules, meaning that your system can evolve as your needs/research interests change.
The NanoTest Alpha cleverly combines multiple nanomechanical and tribological test techniques and multiple environments in a single, affordable instrument to provide the most cost-effective, reliable solution on the market today. Keeping all of the measurement accuracy and precision of the flagship Vantage system, the Alpha allows entry into the range at a lower price point with the option to upgrade in coming years as research needs develop.
Researchers are increasingly demanding that test conditions closely mimic real-world environments in order to provide the most reliable, accurate prediction of properties. With the NanoTest Vantage, Micro Materials already offers the most comprehensive range of nano-mechanical test options. These are now further extended with the Xtreme, which provides a vacuum environment testing from -100 to 1000 °C without oxidation or frosting of samples.
