Nano-Indentation System II, MTS G200

Nano indenter G200 has a unique continuous stiffness measurement (CSM) testing system, which can measure the hardness and Young’s modulus of the mechanical properties. This technique allows the measurement of contact stiffness along with load and displacement data at any point on the loading curve and not just at the unloading point in the conventional indentation measurement. So, the mechanical properties of materials can be consequently calculated as a continuous function of indentation depth by CSM technique.
