Powder and suspension characterization
With the emergence of new application areas and higher demands being imposed on products, the quality of the starting materials is becoming a critical parameter in the production of advanced ceramics. Especially for ceramic and PM manufacturing processes, characterization of powders and suspensions allows potential quality defects and their root causes to be identified at an early stage.

Mechanical testing
Materials characteristics, such as strength, hardness, and fracture strength, are critical for component design and improvement of advanced materials. Fraunhofer IKTS draws on a number of standard and non-standard test methods to determine the mechanical properties of materials at all stages of the development cycle.

Quality assurance laboratory
Testing can be performed alongside development in nearly all areas of quality assurance according to national and international standards or customer-specific programs. Detailed environmental, material, and safety tests are performed in a fully equipped testing laboratory by well-versed staff with extensive experience in test planning, execution, and evaluation. Other activities include jig/fixture construction and regular calibration of the measuring and test equipment.
