Nitinol Professional Development Seminars
A 4-hour, hands-on crash course on nitinol, taught by Kellogg’s Research Labs.

What you’ll do
- What nitinol does: shape memory and superelasticity. Shape-set your own wire.
- Making it move: electric heating and the 4% rule. Lift a weight with a 0.5 mm wire.
- Designing with nitinol: sizing, speed, cycle life, ternary alloys and ASTM testing.
- Actuator types and applications: from diaphragm valves to multi-degree-of-freedom actuators.
Who it’s for: engineers, managers, and other decision makers. Teachers are welcome too.
Where: onsite at your school, district or company. Online when onsite isn’t practical.
You leave with: sample nitinol actuators, a workbook, a design checklist and a certificate for 4 hours of professional development.
