What is a HYS file

HYS files mostly belong to Hysitron Triboscan. HYS files are specialized data files generated during nanoindentation testing. They are usually produced by systems such as Hysitron Triboscan and other Hysitron instruments (like the Triboindenter and TI 950 Nanoindenter) to record load-displacement measurements and related experimental details.

Nanoindentation Data: Most HYS files store raw nanoindentation data used to analyze material properties.

Hysteresis Loop Data: Some HYS files contain hysteresis loop information, used for examining energy dissipation in tests. Such files are often managed with OriginPro software.

To view these files properly, you will need the vendor-specific software. For nanoindentation files, use the Hysitron Triboscan software provided by Hysitron/Bruker (Bruker). For hysteresis loop data, the corresponding software from OriginLab (OriginLab) is appropriate.
FilExt.com tip: If you try to open a HYS file with a text editor or a generic viewer, the data may not be presented clearly due to its specialized internal format.

How to open a HYS file

You need a suitable software like Hysitron Triboscan to open a HYS file. Without proper software you will receive a Windows message "How do you want to open this file?" or "Windows cannot open this file" or a similar Mac/iPhone/Android alert. If you cannot open your HYS file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a HYS file directly in the browser:. Just drag the file onto this browser window and drop it.

How to solve problems with HYS files

Associate the HYS file extension with the correct application.
Update your software that should actually open data files. Because only the current version supports the latest HYS file format. Search, therefore, e.g. on the manufacturer website after an available Hysitron Triboscan update.
To make sure that your HYS file is not corrupted or virus-infected, get the file again and scan it with Google's virustotal.com.
