TECHNOLOGICAL INSTITUTION FOR SUPERHARD AND NOVEL CARBON MATERIALS

The basic model of a nanohardness tester that implements the main methods for measuring hardness, Young's modulus, and a number of other mechanical parameters. The nanohardness tester implements the methods of static indentation, dynamic indentation and scratching. It is possible to measure the surface relief in the contact or semi-contact profilometer mode. The presence of an optical microscope ensures high accuracy of the mutual positioning of the indenter and the object of study. Additional components and sensors are available for this model.
