Thermal Analysis: TMA
|
|
The TMA 402 thermo-mechanical analyzer combines in a unique way the flexibility for investigation of samples under loads of various types and configurations with extremely precise, high-resolution determination of expansion and deformation. This is achieved through the vertical design, with the very homogeneous furnace at the bottom and thermostatically controlled measurement system at the top.
Easy handling and exchangeable sample holders for expansion, penetration, bending and tension measurements, as well as load selection via standard weights, mean quick sample preparation and measurement.
Dynamic elasticity measurements are possible with an electromagnetic dynamic load accessory.
Polymers, composite materials, glass, ceramics and metals are among the preferred application materials in the form of cylinders, rods, small plates, films, fibers or wires.
