There’s a new standard for nanoindentation software: TestWorks® 4 from MTS
Nano Instruments. With TestWorks 4 software, you’ll be able to run tests and
manage your data with unprecedented ease and simplicity. Through the simple and
intuitive interface, you can set up and run indentation experiements quickly—and
change your test patterns as often as you like—with the ease of a few clicks.

|
Benefits
|
|
12.5 kHz with on-board averaging
|
|
Capture critical events without storing excessive data.
|
|
Instrument control at 500 Hz
|
|
Precise experimental control based on acquired and calculated data.
|
|
User-controlled (and variable) data recording rates
|
|
Get exactly the data you want by changing recording rates based on experimental conditions. Record
based on points per second, points per change in value, or peak value. Not just time. This means if a
major event such a fracture occurs, you can get more data at the critical point of the experiment
|
|
User-defined calculations and PID feedback control
|
|
Control experimental progress based on novel calculations and PID feedback control (at
500 Hz!). Have you ever considered a constant hardness test? Now you can!
|
|
Open architecture for external hardware
|
|
Record and use data from your own instrumentation simulateously with ours.
|
|
Experimental test method automatically
stored with data
|
|
All aspects of instrument configuration, experimental chronology, and data analysis are stored for future
reference with the data set. The most esoteric experiment may be exactly duplicated years later.
|
|
Supports any calculational model
|
|
Oliver & Pharr is the predominant calculational model used in nanoindentation. However, TestWorks
supports small force / small displacement measurements that are not necessarily indentation.
From MEMS testing to tensile experiments, surface topology, polymers and beyond—TestWorks
allows you to enter the calculations you deem important based on your samples.
|
|
One-button execution of routine tests
|
|
Routine tests for quality control can be run by a technician with minimal experience.
|
|
Batch-wizard
|
|
Use a simple step-by-step guide to configuring all test settings. Set up hours of tests to run and walk away!
|
|
Ability to configure users (with passwords) so they have
their own data directories and user interface settings
|
|
For various users, customize preferences such as access level, preferred test
method, data-storage location, and interface apperance.
|
|
Automated units conversions
|
|
Specify inputs and results in any units you want. Even mix British and
metric units; TestWorks takes care of the conversion.
|
|
Easy-to-read statistical analysis of all results
|
|
At a glance, see the mean, standard deviation, covariance and more for any result (even user-defined results!)
|
|
Powerful post-test data manipulation
|
|
Change input values, change units, redefine calculations, add new
calculations, and TestWorks quickly handles it all.
|
|
Real-time reporting and plotting
|
|
Plot or simply watch the value of any streaming calculation (channel), including user-defined calculations.
|
|
Continuous updates on experimental status
|
|
Know what the instrument is doing at all times through user-customized meters, messages, and graphs.
|
|
Run a data analysis copy of TestWorks in your office
|
|
TestWorks software will run in your office to allow you to review data at your
desk while the instrument continues to process the next sample.
|
|
Every instrument comes with Microsoft© Office
|
|
Manipulate and present your data with the tools you are already comfortable using.
TestWorks helps you get from testing to presentation in record time.
|
|
Automated export to Microsoft© Excel
|
|
Output instrument settings, user inputs, and results directly to a single, well-organized Excel
workbook. (No intermediate steps of exporting to text files and then importing into Excel!)
|
|
Automated reporting in Microsoft© Word
|
|
A report is automatically generated in Microsoft Word that summarizes instrument configuration,
user inputs, and important results. Easily configure the report format to suit your preferences.
|
|
Analyst™
|
|
Easily combine and graphically compare results from multiple samples.
Analyst can do in seconds what used to take hours by hand.
|
|
Virtual Indenter
|
|
Simulate indentation experiments using this powerful, easy-to-use finite element package.
