Precise optical measurements: non-contact and under controlled conditions up to 2400°C
The Center of Device Development CeDeD at Fraunhofer ISC develops and manufactures custom high-temperature measurement systems and high-precision thermal testing equipment for in-situ material characterization under extreme temperatures, controlled atmospheres, and customizable environmental conditions.
Our optical high-temperature testing systems (Thermo-optical measuring systems: TOM units) are tailored to specific customer requirements and application scenarios. They enable the realistic simulation of industrial thermal treatment processes on a laboratory scale across a wide temperature range from -40 °C to +2,400 °C.
The systems allow non-contact and largely non-destructive testing of materials under defined and reproducible conditions. They are applied across various industries such as energy technology, aerospace, process engineering, and advanced materials research.
