MECHANICAL TESTERS INTRO
Nanovea Mechanical Testers provide superior scratch tester, hardness tester and wear tester modes for determining properties of thin/thick coatings and substrates. Nano, Micro and Macro Module options for applications such as measuring hardness and elastic modulus of particles in pharmacology to high loads required to test the fracture toughness of hard coatings in the tooling industry. Nanovea scratch, hardness and wear tester modes use independent force & depth sensors to obtain depth versus load curves used in instrumented indentation. Force feedback control loop allows stable high precision testing during scratch and wear tester modes
The Nanovea Platform and Compact Bases can retrofit a Nano Module up to 400mN and a Micro/Macro Module 40N-200N to cover the widest range in the industry. Optical Pen & Atomic Force Microscope are available for high resolution 3D imaging of scratch, indentation and wear track results in addition to allowing other metrology measurements. Image pattern recognition is now a breakthrough Software option on both the Nano and Micro Module (Nanovea PRVision).*For Mechanical Testers specifications see brochure download. For Mechanical Testers technical testing data see application notes.
MECHANICAL TESTERS BASE
COMPACT BASE | Limited Budget
Cost-effective solution with 25mmx100mm XY motorized tables, a Z motorized approach of 25mm. A video zoom lens is available for scratch analysis or to select the area of test. A Compact version without X,Y and Z motorizations is available for nanoindentation work only. On this version, a Z micrometer table allows coarse positioning of the head prior to the measurement and a X micrometer table allows to move at each indent. Ideal option for budget limitations and small research facilities.
• Low Price • Compact Size • Broad Application Use • 25mm x 100mm XY • Replace Your Benchtop
PLATFORM BASE | Nanovea Standard
The Platform Base is equipped with a full video microscope with access to a wide range of microscopy options. Two motorized tables, with 150mm range, and a Z motorized approach of more than 50mm, with a gas-spring slide for a maximum clearance of 140mm gives plenty of space to test larger samples. A clamp comes standard but other sample holders can be made custom. The base also integrates a position contol joypad and an emergency stop botton. Nanovea PRVision is now an option on the Platform Base for Auto Pattern Recognition during indentation testing. Ideal option for diverse and expanding measurement needs.

ERGONOMIC WORKSTATION | Strict Environment
An anti-vibration table is recommended for nanometric level tests. The Ergonomic Workstation integrates a high quality air table in addition to attached flexible arms for both the keyboard and the monitor. A Plexiglas enclosure, independently supported by the table, protects against air movement and sound waves. Ideal option for strict environment mechanical testing.
