TT-AFM; for Scientists with bigger Ideas than Budgets
The product range:
- TT-AFM
- TT-AFM Kit (to build the TT-AFM yourself for an even lower price)
With a price below 25'000.- Euro the TT-AFM is ideal for research work and teaching. All technical drawing as well as electronic schematics are supplied with the instrument as an option. Also the software is fully accessible and user programmable through LabView.
Thanks to all that, the TT-AFM can easily be modified, enhanced or adapted to unconventional usages.
One of the principles of the TT-AFM is: OPEN DESIGN

The following AFM modes are included:
- Contact mode
- Dynamic mode (vibrating cantilever mode)
- Phasemode
- Lateral-Force Mode
A high resolution Video-Microscope is integrated as well.
The customer forum on the AFM Workshop website gives customers and other interested persons a platform to discuss applications and exchange ideas.
Four day courses to mount the TT-AFM from the TT-AFM Kit are held on a regular basis at our office in Langen (close to Frankfurt, Germany).
The next workshop is taking place on May 21-25, 2012.
Please reserve your place for a workshop at your closest Schaefer office.
Please find here an article from the Kent State University USA about the recently held workshop at their educational lab.
