Nanoindenters
Nanomechanical testers from KLA Instruments™ for materials characterisation and process control. These nanoindenters provide precise, reliable and repeatable testing to characterise static and dynamic mechanical properties of materials, under a wide range of test conditions.
Benchtop/Tabletop
Compact nanoindenters that make measuring hard coatings, thin films, and small volumes of material easy. These accurate, flexible and user-friendly instruments can perform a wide range of nanoscale mechanical tests including nanoindentation, hardness, scratch and universal nanoscale testing.
Freestanding
User-friendly nanoscale mechanical testers that quickly deliver accurate, quantitative results.
In-situ
Nanomechanical testers compatible with scanning electron microscope (SEM) and focused ion beam (FIB) chambers, or standalone vacuum chambers. The unique software-integrated tip-calibration system provides fast and accurate tip calibration.
