Rates are in effect from July 1, 2022, through June 30, 2023

ATAMI has a three-tier fee structure for shared tooling. The hourly rates in the tables below are for your use of the instruments after completing orientation, tool training and tool-specific use certification. Training is provided by the ATAMI Capabilities Training Staff at standard hourly rates.  

Both university and industry research groups benefit from affordable monthly caps. See Monthly Rates in the second table below. "Oregon University" rates apply to the following institutions - OSU, UO, OHSU, PSU, OIT.

ATAMI also offers consultation and services for commissioned work. Each job is unique: cost is the combination of hourly labor and tooling rates plus the costs of materials and shipping, as applicable. See Labor Rates in the third table below. Contact ATAMI Director, Todd Miller to discuss your project and how we can assist. Fees for services are not subject to caps.

ATAMI invoices for usage and services on a calendar-month basis in the month after fees are incurred.
