Hysitron Triboindenter
Description
The Triboindenter performs indentation tests by driving a diamond indenter
into the specimen surface and dynamically collecting the applied force and displacement data.
Material properties are derived from the load and depth data. Specimens are typically relatively smooth and flat.
