i3D® WLI Eco for compact local material data
compact
fast
i3D® technology
Core Points
WLI Eco is right when local data should start internally but still stay compact.
For teams that want to use local material data internally without starting immediately with maximum automation and mapping depth.
Superspeed optional
When variants need to be compared quickly, a mode from roughly 20 seconds per point is possible.
Compact platform
Eco brings local material data into the laboratory without requiring a large automation project.
WLI optional
If required, optical 3D information from test indentation and topography can be added.
Details
i3D® WLI Eco for compact local material data
What matters directly in the setup.
Short standard time, compact platform, optional 3D measurement and a clean entry into local material data. That is exactly what Eco stands for.
- Semi-automated entry into the Imprint Test according to DIN SPEC 4864 and ASTM E3499 for local yield strength Rᶦₚ₀,₂, tensile strength Rᶦₘ and stress-strain curves
- Compact system architecture for laboratory, development and QA with a lower barrier to entry than larger automation platforms
- Useful for first internal routines, screening, feasibility assessment and reproducible local comparisons
- Optional with white light interferometry for optical 3D measurement of surface and test indentation
- around 72 seconds per measurement point in standard mode
- optional superspeed mode from roughly 20 seconds per point
- currently around 9 weeks delivery time for new devices
- procurement as purchase or leasing depending on budget and project logic
Software
Eco uses the same evaluation logic for local material data and stress-strain curves.
The compact entry changes nothing about the actual evaluation: inverse FEM, local yield strength Rᶦₚ₀,₂, tensile strength Rᶦₘ and stress-strain curves run in the same digital workflow.
- inverse FEM evaluation directly in the software workflow
- local material data from indentation and geometry without a break in method
- suited for first screening routines, variant comparison and documented laboratory work
What WLI Eco changes in day-to-day work
WLI Eco is strong when local material data should become available internally and the setup deliberately needs to stay compact.
Eco is therefore not a small Pro substitute, but the right entry if local material data should become available internally and scaling is planned for a second step.
- fast entry into in-house local material characterization
- well suited for laboratory, R&D and QA with a clear first task
- scalable if more points, automation or mapping are needed later
Procurement and options
Eco is currently offered as a new device. WLI, superspeed and software packages are added according to the workflow instead of being overloaded by default.
That keeps the entry economical without giving up the methodological value of i3D®.
- new devices as the current procurement route
- purchase or leasing possible
- WLI module optional
- superspeed mode optional

If sample, part or laboratory target is roughly clear, it can be checked quickly whether Eco is technically sufficient.

Compare WLI Eco directly with the adjacent system classes.
That makes it clearer whether Eco is sufficient or whether Pro, mBV, BVR or Inline is the better system logic.
System pages should show the neighbouring setup choices directly instead of forcing users back to the overview first.
