Technology of Materials Workshop

Laboratory Administrator: ANTHEMEDES Kon/nos (As. Professor)

The Materials Technology Laboratory forming in the Construction Sector since 2006, is growing more and more with the supply and installation of new modern machinery and equipment, for the training and practical training for students on subjects related with:

  • Casting of metals, particularly aluminum alloys
  • Cutting and preparation of mineral samples
  • Observing the structure of the samples under a microscope
  • Measuring the hardness of samples
  • Resistance measurement of samples

for doing so, the proper equipment was supplied

Likewise the laboratory is equipped with:

  • Furnace for melting metal
  • Molds for blend casting
  • Power cutter for cutting specimens
  • Grinding machines for grinding of samples
  • Microscopic observation of specimens
  • Durometer for measuring the hardness of specimens
  • Tensile machine to measure the tensile

it should be noted that, apart from education and practical training for students, the equipment is used especially for dissertation projects and research programs of the institution.
