Company profile
Based in Osterode am Harz, Hesse Instruments has specialised in heating microscopes, a laboratory measuring device for the thermo-optical examination of materials, since 2000. Today, we are a small, dedicated team of qualified engineers and technicians who are primarily involved in the development, production, sales, commissioning and servicing of heating microscopes.
The heating microscope is used to analyse test specimens optically and contact-free under the influence of temperature. Our image analysis software automatically evaluates shadow images of the test specimen and determines geometric parameters and characteristic temperatures. The design of the measuring cell allows materials to be heated above their melting point.
This makes our heating microscope suitable for determining the
- thermal expansion behaviour
- sintering behaviour
- softening behaviour
- melting behaviour
- wetting behaviour
- viscosity behaviour (for glass-like melting materials)
of various materials.
The heating microscope is used in research, development and quality control in industry, as well as in research institutes and universities. In addition to investigating the melting behaviour of ashes, the heating microscope is mainly used in the glass and ceramics industry.
Thanks to our many years of experience in the field of heating microscopy, our extensive knowledge in the field of materials science and materials engineering, and our network of customers and cooperation partners worldwide, we have been able to continuously expand our application expertise and market knowledge of heating microscopes.
Hesse Instruments takes heating microscopy to a new level worldwide. We offer our customers high-quality measuring instruments and optimal application technology consulting for the long term
