Nanoindentation experts


The world's most versatile, cost-effective, and high-performance nanoindentation platform for use in SEM and airborne in situ.




Alemnis AG is a pioneer in the field of in situ materials testing and is known for innovations that lead to groundbreaking discoveries in materials science.

Alemnis enables innovative academic research in materials science by providing state-of-the-art micro- and nanomechanical property measurement instruments that can be applied in a wide variety of test environments.

Alemnis nanoindentation products are based on years of experience in the design of scientific instruments and piezoelectric transducers carried out in joint projects between EPFL (Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne) and Empa (Swiss Federal Laboratories for Materials Science and Technology, Thun ).

A publication by the inventors received the 2004 Bunshah Award from the American Vacuum Society. It is considered an important milestone in the scientific community.
