It is an extrusion based rapid prototyping technology. FDM builds concept models, functional prototypes and end-use parts in standard, engineering-grade and high-performance thermoplastics. It’s the only professional 3D printing technology that uses production-grade thermoplastics, so parts are unrivaled in mechanical, thermal and chemical strength.

• Built Size: 10x10x14 inch
• Accuracy: 0.127 mm
• Slice Height: T12 (0.178 mm), T16 (0.254 mm)

PolyJet 3D printing is similar to inkjet printing, but instead of jetting drops of ink onto paper, PolyJet 3D Printers jet layers of curable liquid photopolymer onto a build tray. PolyJet 3D Printing technology offers many advantages for rapid tooling and prototyping, and even production parts including astonishingly fine detail, smooth surfaces, speed and precision.

• Built Size: 10x9.9x7.9 inch
• Accuracy: 20 to 28 microns for size below 50 mm & 200 microns for full size model
• Layer Thickness: 16 microns

3D scanner is used in development, quality assurance and production to reduce time and cost of building of 3D models. Main applications are 3D inspection, reverse engineering and rapid manufacturing.

3D scanning system consists of two types of 3D scanning heads:-

1. Atos core 45 mm
2. Atos core 300 mm
   Accuracy- 5 microns

Measuring area of Atos core 45 (5m) and Atos core 300 (5m) are 45 x 30 mm and 300 x 230 mm respectively

The instrument is able to measure the magnetoelectric coupling coefficient in DC and AC bias mode. The conductive samples of bulk and thin films could be used to measure in transverse and longitudinal mode. This setup has HIOKI LCR meter which could use to measure the magneto-dielectric coupling in DC bias mode at frequency range 100HZ to 1 MHz.

The electrochemical workstation/electrochemical analyzer is a unit that helps to carry out all the electrochemical characterization techniques/methods, like cyclic voltammetry (CV), chronoamperometry (CA), chronopotentiometry (CP), galvanostatic charge discharge (GCD), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), etc. This can be used for various applications like sensor studies, batteries, supercapacitors, etc.

Device used to determine the ferroelectric properties of insulating materials. This device can be used for determining ferroelectric characteristics of materials with varying temperature (RT - 2000C) and frequency.

This is a high energy palnetary ball milling system, (900 RPM with 2 grinding zirconia jar units). It is used to make homogeneous samples and grinding sample material down to very small sizes.

It is used to sinter the bulk ceramic pellets at very high temperature (RT to 17000 C).

The instrument is used to measure dielectric measurements characteristics of the ceramic pellets and thin films. Frequency range: 20Hz to 20MHz, Temperature range: (RT–650°C). The instrument is able to measure parameters such as impedance (|Z|), complex Z, phase angle (θ), capacitance (C), loss (D), admittance (|Y|), complex Y in different linear and logarithmic frequency sweep with basic impedance measurement accuracy of ±0.08%.

It is used for measuring electric charge or electric potential difference. It can be used to make voltage and charge measurements with very low leakage currents, down to 1 femtoampere.
