Based on the pioneering Thermometric technology, our instruments offer maximum sensitivity, flexibility and productivity. Isothermal Microcalorimetry is an extremely sensitive technique complementary to TA Instruments differential scanning calorimeters. TAM is a microcalorimeter system represented by TAM IV, TAM IV-48 and TAM Air.

TA Instruments’ unique True Differential configuration makes our dilatometers the preferred choice for the most accurate measurement of Coefficient of Thermal Expansion (CTE). The high precision linear position sensor, the thermostat equipped measuring head housing, and the use of thermally ultra-stable materials all contribute to the outstanding displacement resolution, and ensure the most accurate measurement of low CTE valu…

 The clear choice for sintering studies without compromise of temperature uniformity.

Quenching dilatometers are used to study the heat treatment of steel and metal alloys, helping to identifying the heating rate, quenching rate, and isothermal dwell times necessary in metals manufacturing to yield the crystalline structure necessary to meet the required physical properties of the finished product.

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.…

Heating microscopy is a non-contact technique that, based upon an advanced image analysis of a specimen subjected to a thermal treatment reproducing industrial firing conditions, identifies several characteristic shapes and related temperatures key to the optimization of manufacturing processes in ceramics, metals, and alloys.
