Optical Dialtometer Platform 868 and 806
Optical dilatometry is an innovative and versatile technique capable of measuring, without sample contact, dimensional changes in the sub-micro range and beyond the softening point into the melt, accurately reproducing real industrial firing cycle conditions. The contact-less measuring principle greatly simplifies the sample preparation process. It reduces the need for precise parallelism between the two ends of the specimen.…
Optical Dilatometer Platform 868
Result of over twenty years of R&D of optical instruments for the study of the thermo-mechanical behavior of materials, ODP 868 makes possible the analysis of samples beyond the limits of classical heating microscopy. Its versatility makes of ODP 868 the most innovative tool for production and R&D laboratories for the optimization of all the industrial processes that involve thermal cycles.
The Heating Microscope mode uses a 5Mpix high resolution camera to study the physical behavior of the materials during the industrial firing cycles.
With the Morphometrics applicative it is possible, in real-time during the analysis, to automatically calculate and visualize different characteristic temperatures and parameters selectable by the user.
Capable to analyze samples in a wide range of shapes and sizes (for example a 3mm sample and simultaneously a 10mm sample), ODP 868 can simultaneously analyze up to 8 samples of ISO standard size.
DIL 806 Optical Dilatometer
A versatile instrument for thermal expansion and contraction measurements, DIL 806 uses an innovative measurement principle to make unconventional experiments possible, and to improve many conventional tests.
