The KLA iNano® is engineered for flexible and user-friendly nanomechanical testing of coatings, thin films, and small material volumes. Combining a high-stiffness gantry, integrated vibration isolation, and fast data acquisition electronics, it ensures reliable, repeatable nanoscale measurements across a wide range of materials—from soft polymers to hard ceramics.
Its InForce 50 electromagnetic actuator offers precise displacement control with nanometer-scale resolution and up to 50 mN load capacity, making it ideal for testing thin films, low-modulus materials, and small structures. The InView software suite—featuring RunTest, ReviewData, and InFocus—simplifies test setup, analysis, and reporting for efficient workflows in both research and industry.
The Continuous Stiffness Measurement (CSM) module enables real-time modulus and hardness profiling as a function of depth, while AccuFilm™ corrects for substrate influence in thin film characterization. NanoBlitz™ 3D and 4D mapping rapidly generate quantitative property maps, and ProbeDMA™ extends analysis to viscoelastic and frequency-dependent mechanical behavior of soft materials.
Optional modules such as scratch and wear testing, 300°C sample heating, and active vibration isolation expand the iNano’s versatility for advanced studies in tribology, thin film durability, and temperature-dependent performance.
Compact, stable, and ISO 14577–compliant, the iNano provides a powerful, space-efficient solution for academic, industrial, and quality assurance laboratories seeking quantitative nanomechanical data.
