Dynamic Mechanical Analyzer (DMA)

Dyanamic Mechanical Analyzer
TA Instruments, Q800 DMA

The Q800 is the world’s best-selling DMA, for very good reasons. It utilizes state-of-the-art, non-contact, linear drive technology to provide precise control of stress, and air bearings for low friction support. Strain is measured using optical encoder technology that provides unmatched sensitivity and resolution. With its unique design, the Q800 easily outperforms competitive instruments, and is ideal for high-stiffness applications including composites. The Gas Cooling Accessory extends the operating range of the Q800 to -150°C. The GCA uses cold nitrogen gas generated from controlled evaporation of liquid nitrogen.
