The gold standard in thermal-mechanical simulation.
Since 1957, Gleeble systems have set the benchmark for high-fidelity physical simulation, reproducing real manufacturing processes such as welding, forging, rolling, and continuous casting in the lab before a single production run.
Gleeble® is the brand the materials world knows; Dynamic Systems Inc. is the company behind it, designing, building, and supporting every system from Poestenkill, New York, and DSI Europe. More than 500 systems are at work worldwide, backing over 30,000 published research citations.
Visit gleeble.com →Proprietary direct resistance heating delivers highly accurate temperature control at heating rates up to 10,000°C/s, from room temperature to over 3000°C.
Programmable mechanical loading to 200 kN across a wide range of strain rates, for tension, compression, and full thermal-mechanical cycles.
Synchronized thermal and mechanical data captured at 10 kHz with available contact and non-contact measurement devices
