Metals

Metals have many interesting properties are used in a variety of applications throughout industry.  Advancing technology is driving metallurgy to smaller scales for increased functionality and demand for compact working parts which causes size itself to becomes a limiting factor with respect to how these parts are tested.

Hysitron's instruments provide the small scale sensitivity and precision necessary for nanomechanical testing of metal applications ranging in size from milimeters down to the nanoscale.  In addition to nanoindentation, nanoscratch, and nanowear testing, our instruments provide many additional testing features.

Please see our Product Options page for more information on how our instruments can help you with your metal application.
