CSM Instruments Develops, Manufactures and Sells Instruments to characterize
mechanical properties of surfaces, and so to provide, worldwide, to R&D
Laboratories and manufacturing industry: Equipments, Norms and Expertise.
CSM Equipments have been on the market for more than 30 years, first
under the name of LSRH then CSEM.
CSM Instruments provides equipment that allows the
mechanical characterization of a wide range of surfaces and bulk materials.
Adhesion of paints, optical thin films or hard coatings can be defined
using one of our Scratch Testers. These span the nano to the macro range
to analyze the widest range of materials. Dynamic Hardness measurements
can be performed to define not only the hardness of the material, but
also to evaluate the plastic and elastic deformation, the elasticity module,
creep and much more. For wear testing we offer Tribometer based on the
pin-on-disc principle that operate both in the Micro and Nano regime;
to record the change in friction coefficient. An abrasive wear test allows
the assessment of wear resistance of surfaces.
Other equipment measures film thickness.
We also supply AFM equipment confocal imaging and our laboratory will
perform analysis for you with any one of our standard machines.
