Equipments

Materials testing and materials evaluation testing machines

These are devices that evaluate the mechanical properties, the processing and the characteristic of the materials.

  • Macro-materials testing machine This device performs the macro-material mechanical test under the high-temperature and moist environments.
  • Micro-materials testing machine This device performs the micro-material mechanical test.
  • Focused ion beam (FIB) machining system This device processes the micron-size test piece.
  • Nano indentor This device performs the nano-hardness measurement.
  • Thermoelastic stress analysis testing system This device performs the thermoelasticity stress analysis by using the thermography.
  • Magnetic force microscope This device performs a magnetic structure at the atom and the nano-level.

Advanced processing machines

These are devices that processes various materials.

  • Electromagnetic forming machine This device performs high-speed plastic deformation and joining by using the electromagnetic force generated when electric current flows through a coil.
  • Laser-based directed energy deposition fabricated by AIST (Laser DED) Fine structure fabrication of parts was built by this metal printing system.
