The shape and size of irregularities on a machined surface have a major impact on quality, performance (leakage), and longevity.
The quantification and management of surface irregularities, through the measurement of surface roughness, is necessary to maintain high product performance.
Part 3 of our video series on Surface Finish will examine important elements of why and how we measure surface finish. The full table of contents is below:
Part 3 will discuss:
1. Why we measure Surface Finish
2. Types of surface roughness
- Linear
- Areal
3. How we measure surface finish
- Contact methods
- Non-Contact methods
4. Contact & Non-Contact measurement considerations
