Brief History of SwRI
|
| |
 |
| |
This fully automated, wide-field
inverted microscope supports micro-analysis efforts,
including live cell visualization, bacterial
visualization and particle detection. |
| |

The state-of-the-art equipment and facilities
of Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) are housed on more
than 1,200 acres in San Antonio. Almost two million square
feet of laboratories, offices, and test facilities
support work on nearly 2,000 client projects each year. SwRI
facilities include:
-
Microscopy (SEM, AFM, Raman, fluorescent, cell
culturing)
-
Anechoic
chambers (electromagnetic and acoustic)
-
Mechanical test labs (shock, drop, hardness, vibration,
wear, fatigue, torsion, compression)
-
Environmental testing facilities (atmospheric pressure,
temperature, and humidity)
-
Imaging
equipment (optical, thermal, X-ray, ultrasound, etc.)
-
Spectroscopy (HPLC, Raman, mass spec, gas
chromatography)
-
Vacuum MEMS probe station
