Hysitron TI 980

Powerful and versatile nanomechanical and nanotribological test system.

Bruker’s Hysitron TI 980 TriboIndenter operates at the intersection of maximum performance, flexibility, reliability, usability, and speed. It builds upon decades of Hysitron^® technological innovation to deliver new levels of extraordinary performance, enhanced capabilities, and ultimate versatility in nanomechanical characterization. The Hysitron
TI 980 is everything a superior nanomechanical test instrument needs to be, achieving remarkable advances in control and throughput capabilities, testing flexibility, applicability, measurement reliability, and system modularity.

Powerful base system configuration:

• Nanoindentation — hardness, elastic modulus, creep, stress relaxation, fracture toughness, high-speed property mapping
• Nanotribology — thin-film adhesion, friction coefficients, scratch/mar resistance, reciprocating wear
• SPM Imaging — topography and gradient imaging, nanometer - precision test positioning, friction force imaging
• Dynamic Nanoindentation — continuous hardness and modulus depth profiling, storage modulus, loss modulus, tan-delta

Maximum flexibility and future-proof characterization potential:

• Multi-layered enclosure delivers superior environmental isolation with integrated access ports for future technique expansion
• Universal sample chuck provides mechanical, magnetic, and vacuum mounting capabilities to accommodate the widest range of samples
