We faced a challenge: accurately measuring heavy samples in a vacuum and harsh environment. Existing equipment couldn’t meet our requirements, so we designed a completely new device. One that couldn’t be realized using traditional manufacturing methods. Together with the Equipment and Prototype Center at TU/e, we built it and pushed the boundaries of what’s possible. For those interested in the technical hurdles and the solutions, the paper is open access: https://lnkd.in/eRB7p2F8 Special thanks to Olaf van der Sluis, Johan Hoefnagels, Marc Geers, Yannick Kieskamp, Bram Creusen, Lucien Cleven and all the others for their contributions!
