iX05 Ultra-fast nanoindentation in operando conditions
The iX05 is an operando nanoindenter. It is designed to measure local mechanical properties in real-world conditions such as high temperatures, low temperatures, high strain rates, or in liquid environments.
Traditional nanoindenters are optimized to measure materials in laboratory conditions. However, materials in practical applications often experience extreme environments that strongly influence their mechanical behavior. The iX05 is optimized to test materials in conditions representative of their targeted application.
The iX05 combines the high resolution and speed offered by MEMS-based technology with fast control electronics and environment control, making it the ultimate tool for measuring and visualizing mechanical properties of materials in a wide range of testing conditions.
