The Micro in-situ mechanical testing system is a high-precision measuring instrument mainly used for testing the mechanical properties of microscale samples. It can achieve a maximum longitudinal load of 1 mN, with a displacement resolution of less than 0.02 nanometers, and can analyze the microscopic structure and physical property relationships of materials by combining high-resolution transmission electron microscopy and energy spectrum functions. This system supports various testing modes such as tension and compression, and facilitates non-contact strain measurements for samples ranging from 10 micrometers to 1 millimeter, with a measurement accuracy better than 1×10^-5, a maximum load capacity of 10 N, and a load sensor measurement accuracy of ±0.15%.
