Description
The design of the TMA PT1600 Thermomechanical Analyzer guarantees highest precision, reproducibility and accuracy. The system was constructed to performing a variety of Thermomechanical experiments, on an array of sample shapes and sizes, over a wide temperature range, to meet all TMA needs.
The system can perform either static or dynamic measurements due to a built in force/frequency generator.
Typical materials under investigation are: composite materials, glass, polymers, ceramics and metals. The variety of measuring systems allows sample geometries such as fibers, rods, films, rods or cylinders
