Dilatometer (DIL)
Precise measurement of the thermal expansion of materials
LINSEIS Dilatometers (DIL) enable the precise determination of thermal linear expansion in solids, powders, and other materials under controlled temperature conditions. Through the accurate detection of dimensional changes, phase transitions, sintering processes, and other thermophysical properties can be reliably analyzed, making dilatometry an essential tool for research, quality control, and material development.
Developed for a wide range of applications, LINSEIS dilatometers are available from compact laboratory instruments to high-temperature systems for advanced research and industrial environments. Suitable for metals, ceramics, glasses, polymers, and composite materials, these systems provide reproducible, standards-compliant, and high-precision results in accordance with international standards including ASTM, ISO, and DIN specifications.
The Top Dilatometers for Maximum Precision
Dilatometer variants and design principles
☑️ Horizontal alignment
Horizontal dilatometers are characterized by a simple, robust design and an attractive price-performance ratio.
They are the ideal choice for the medium temperature range and enable convenient sample handling and quick sample changes.
In addition, tailor-made systems for larger samples can be implemented to cover special applications or unusual geometries.
☑️ Vertical alignment
Vertically aligned dilatometers work according to the zero-friction principle, in which the sample is in contact only with the end stop and the push rod – for maximum measuring precision without mechanical friction losses.
Depending on the configuration, up to three furnaces can be integrated to cover the entire temperature range from -180 °C to 2800 °C. This makes vertical systems suitable for both low and extremely high temperatures.
Another advantage is the increased sample throughput:
A hot oven can be started up automatically while a cold oven is already ready for the next measurement – this significantly speeds up the changeover process.
Why Linseis – The difference in dilatometry
☑️ Long-Term Investment with Added Value
The focus is not only on precision, but also on sustainable added value throughout the entire lifecycle. These systems offer some of the lowest operating costs in their class thanks to durable, low-maintenance components, a robust design, and intelligent software maintenance.
Fewer service calls, shorter downtimes, and continuous remote updates ensure maximum system availability and future-proof operation — for decades to come.
☑️ Customized Solutions – Flexibility as Standard
Every measuring task is unique – which is why systems are not limited to standard configurations, but can be precisely tailored to specific applications. Whether a special furnace, custom sensor technology, an extended temperature range, or customer-specific software integration, solutions can be adapted to match exact requirements.
With a modular product architecture, customization becomes standard – delivering fast, precise, and reliable solutions for even the most demanding applications.
