MANULAB
MANULAB is a national research infrastructure for state-of-the-art manufacturing research. Laser Robotics welding laboratory is one of MANULAB's 11 laboratories.
Laboratories
All our labs have designated contact persons. SINTEF builds and operates important research infrastructure and we have over 100 laboratories that form the basis for our research. From zero-emission buildings, to ocean basins, nano, CO2, electrical engineering and full-scale aquaculture sites - world-leading laboratories, from ocean space to outer space.
Mass spectrometry - Advanced research-based analyses
We perform research-based mass spectrometric (MS) and high-throughput (HTS) analyses for SINTEF, academia and industry.
Materials testing
We can test and characterise a wide range of different materials in our laboratories. Materials and components are bent, tensioned and compressed, and go through fracture- and fatigue tests.
Metallographic characterization laboratory
In the characterization laboratory we have strong expertise in metallographic characterization of steel, aluminum and other metals and alloys. The laboratory is located very close to the mechanical/fracture mechanical laboratory, the corrosion...
MiNaLab
MiNaLab conducts research and development in the field of microsystems and nanotechnology, along with operating a small-scale production line for high-tech sensors.
Molecular biology laboratory
We have state of the art equipment for molecular biology, including an Illumina MiSeq sequencer, droplet digital PCR (ddPCR), Agilent Bioanalyzer, CHEF Mapper XA pulse field gel electrophoresis system and a Bluepippin cassette-based gel...
Molten Salt and Electrolysis Lab
Molten salts includes fluorides, chlorides and carbonates melts for use in several electrochemical processes. Aluminium electrolysis is the predominant field of work but also electrowinning of Titanium, Iron, Magnesium, Silicon and Rare Earth Metals...
Polymer and composite mechanical testing lab
We offer both standardized and tailored mechanical testing solutions for a wide range of polymer and composite materials, components and industrial applications.
Polymer and composite processing lab
In this lab we produce test specimens and simple product prototypes of polymer and composite materials. Effects of processing and recycling can be studied. Furthermore, new material formulations can be compounded, e.g. by blending polymers or by...
