FT-I04 Accessories

The FemtoTools FT-S Microforce Sensing Probes are sensors capable of measuring forces from sub-nanonewtons to 200 millinewtons along the sensor’s probe axis. Both compression and tension forces can be measured. The FT-S Microforce Sensing Probes are available with a wide variety of tip materials and geometries including diamond Berkovich, cube corner, flat punch, wedge, conical and more.
Specialized versions are also available, including 2-Axis Microforce Sensing Probes.

The Scratch Testing Module (coming soon) consists of an exchangeable sample stage with an integrated piezoscanner. This enables the in-plane movement of the sample while simultaneously applying a normal force. Combined with the FemtoTools 2-Axis Microforce Sensing Probe, this module enables nanoindentation, nano-scratch and nano-wear testing, as well as SPM imaging of surface roughness, high-aspect ratio features and residual scratches or indents.
