TMA 402 F1 / F3 Hyperion®
Thermomechanical Analyzer - Vertical Dilatometer
The heart of the TMA 402 Hyperion® is a highly precise inductive displacement transducer (LVDT).
This technology has stood the test of time; it is also used for dilatometers and allows measurement of even the smallest of length changes, into the nanometer range (digital resolution of 0.125 nm).
Simultaneous measurement of force and displacement signal
The force operating on the sample is generated electromagnetically in the TMA 402 Hyperion®. This guarantees a quick response time for experiments with a changing load, e.g. tests creep behavior. A highly sensitive force sensor (digital resolution < 0.01 mN) continuously measures the force exerted via the push rod and readjusts it automatically. This sets the TMA 402 Hyperion® apart from other instruments, which use only preset values.
