Equipment

The AMH-50K-S Hysteresisgraph (Laboratorio Elettrofisico) is a DC automatic measuring system for characterization of hard magnetic materials. AMH-500 meets the International Standard IEC 60404-5 and ASTM A977. Measurements are performed at room temperature.

The Arc Melter (Edmund Buehler) is a tool for melting and alloying in pure inert gas atmosphere. It si designed for melting samples at temperatures up to 3500°C. Description Designed for melting samples of up to approx.

The DSC 404 F1 Pegasus (Netzsch), High-Temperature Differential Scanning Calorimeter, is designed for the exact determination of specific heat of high-performance materials at high temperatures. It comprises a high-capacity heat flux DSC for highly sophisticated application measurements.

An Electrical Discharge Machine (ZAPpb) is a highly accurate instrument used in the manufacturing to produce complicated forms and patterns in metals that are challenging to manufacture using conventional techniques. In order to erode the material and produce the required form, EDM employs a regulated electric discharge between an electrode and the workpiece.

The Melt Spinner (Edmund Buehler) is a tool for the production of rapidly solidified amorphous or nanocrystalline ribbons or splats on a laboratory scale, either in high vacuum or inert gas atmosphere.

The Micro Hardness Tester ZHμ HD (Zwick Roell) is a high-precision instrument used in material science to measure the hardness of small samples with great accuracy. This microhardness tester utilizes an optical system to precisely measure the indentation created on the sample surface by a diamond indenter under a controlled load.

The Nanoindentation Tester NHT2 (Anton Paar) is designed for measuring hardness, elastic modulus, creep, and other surface properties from the nanometer to the micrometer scale. The wide ranges of load and penetration depth enable you to measure the mechanical properties of a large variety of materials.

The AFM XE-100 Park System is a powerful Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) designed for high-resolution imaging and nanomechanical characterization of surfaces. It is a cutting-edge instrument that offers high precision and accuracy, making it suitable for a wide range of applications in materials science, biophysics, and other fields.

The PPMS VersaLab (Quantum Design) is a portable, cryogen-free cryocooler-based material characterization platform. With a temperature range of 50 – 400 K, this 3 tesla platform is perfect for accomplishing many types of materials characterization.
