Optical thermal expansion measuring instrument for demanding research and development and manufacturing technology labs.

The "ODP 868," a result of over 20 years of research and development on optical testing devices for analyzing the thermomechanical behavior of materials, enables sample analysis that surpasses the limitations of conventional heating microscopes. With its multifunctionality, the ODP 868 is a highly innovative tool suitable for optimizing industrial processes related to manufacturing, research and development, and thermal cycles. The heating microscope mode uses a 5Mpix high-resolution camera to analyze the physical behavior of materials during industrial firing cycles. Through practical morphometrics, it calculates and visualizes various characteristic temperatures and parameters selected by the user in real-time during analysis. The ODP 868 can analyze samples of a wide range of shapes and sizes (for example, measuring 3mm and 10mm samples simultaneously) and can analyze up to 8 ISO standard-sized samples at the same time.

Introducing the "DIL802/802L," capable of high-precision dual sample measurement.

The DIL 803 is a dual-sample dilatometer that maximizes productivity by measuring two samples simultaneously. It can measure in vacuum or inert gas environments, while the DIL 803L is specialized for measurements in air. The horizontally arranged furnace ensures uniform temperature and eliminates the effects of air convection. A high-sensitivity LVDT is used to accurately measure even minute thermal expansion events.

• Analytical Equipment and Devices

Measurement of thermal expansion in the vertical direction is possible! The highest sensitivity is guaranteed by a high-resolution inductive sensor (LVDT).

The DIL820 series (DIL 821/822) is a high-precision vertical dilatometer belonging to the DIL 820 series from TA Instruments. These models are equipped with a new optical encoder that has a resolution of 1nm, making them particularly suitable for the analysis of challenging samples. The DIL 822 employs true differential measurement technology, providing the best sensitivity and accuracy for CTE (coefficient of thermal expansion) in the market.
