Surface Analytics Lab FHNW

    In the Surface Analytics Lab, we characterise surfaces in terms of topography, roughness, friction behaviour, surface energy or layer thickness.

    Our Offer

    Would you like to better understand the surface of your product?
    We offer you the opportunity to do so with imaging and spectroscopic methods. Be it friction or wear, contact angle or layer thickness, structures or roughness: we characterize surfaces for you.
