■ MATERIAL TESTING SOLUTIONS A New Dimension in Materials Testing ® Pointwise testing ® Process understanding ® Products improvement

The Next Step Forward for Your Materials Testing Would you like to conduct materials testing where conventional methods fail - on component parts and small samples? Imprintec starts where hardness and tensile testing stop and reveals the local properties of your products. Precisely analyze your material properties The unique Imprintec indentation process can do just that. Based on the very latest scientific findings on innovative materials testing, our process can measure stress-strain behavior (see Fig. 1) and other properties directly on your components and material samples. Macro, micro...

Tensile testing Hardness testing imprintec process The benefits are obvious In contrast to conventional tensile and hardness testing, the Imprintec indentation process is a newly developed method for analyzing local material parameters. The process is similar to hardness testing, yet with a significant difference. The new technique reveals the yield strength and work hardening (stress-strain behavior) of your materials, with significant benefits. ® Non-destructive The impression required for the testing process is only a fraction of a millimeter deep, similar to hardness testing. Samples...

Applications Do you use, produce or process metallic products? Are you looking to have your range of components, surface coatings and samples tested precisely? Imprintec has the solution for your testing requirements facilitating a number of applications. A general overview of possible applications ® Determination of local properties where no tensile testing is possible ® Control and optimization of products and processes ® FEM simulation with local material parameters ® An increase in the performance limits of your materials ® A reduction of safety factors in component design through...

Metals & alloys Imprintec provides a completely new material testing process which combines the latest findings from the fields of science, FEM simulation and measurement technology. The process is patent-pending. Imprintec uses four process steps to quickly analyze the stress-strain behavior of your materials. Define Define as many measurement points and arrange points in grids as you like on your samples and components. Small and large samples can be tested due to variable testing volume. Test The indentation testing produces an impression that is only fractions of a millimeter deep....
