Laboratory Agitator Ball Mill, Netzsch LabStar

Laboratory Agitator Bead Mill

The Institute of Materials Research is equipped with a range of different ceramic processing equipment including a modern laboratory agitator bead mill (Netzsch LabStar) used primarily for the development and production of ceramic suspensions / slurries. The agitator bead mill can be equipped with two different sized milling chambers and two material lining options to meet a wide range of research an development challenges.

Laser beam welder

Nd-YAG-Laser equipped with vacuum chamber and specimen manipulator for precision welding of titanium alloys. Permanent power: 100 W, pulse power: 6.5 kW

FEA

High performance software (e.g. ANSYS, ABAQUS) is available for Finite Element Analyses (FEA) of structural behaviour of components and micromechanical behaviour of materials.

Furnaces operated in vacuum, air, or defined atmosphere

In the institute several furnaces with chamber sizes up to 60x60x60cm and a maximum temperature capability of 1750°C are available. In vacuum (typical 10-6 mbar) or in a defined atmosphere (N2, H2, Ar etc.) a maximum temperature of 1600°C can be used.

Winding machines for fabrication of ceramic matrix composites

Two in-house designed and built computer-controlled winding machines using CADWind™ software package for the fabrication of ceramic matrix composites (CMC)
