About Us

HAMMER is focused on design and Hi-Res complex devices manufacturing for both nuclear/astro-particle physics research and industrial technology transfer and services.

INFN Technology Transfer

The INFN is a leader organisation in basic research in the field of physics. To realise worldclass scientific experiments, researchers and technicians countinuosly develop cutting edge technologies in our specialised laboratories, always acquiring new expertise.

Technical Features

In the INFNs context, HAMMER poses itself as a network for AM prototyping, quality check and chemical analysis. Intense activities, often in collaboration with industries, are ongoing in this field.
