CHAPTER 8
Surface Measurement
Overview
• Surface metrology, which includes the commonly
recognized elements finish and roundness, is important
consideration in manufacturing.
* Asperity is defined as
unevenness of surface.
Various lay configuration
– Machine vision.
In this technique, a light source is used to illuminate the surface with
a digital system to viewing the surface and the data being sent to a
computer to be analyzed. The digitized data is then used with a
correlation chart to get actual roughness values.
– Ultrasound.
A spherically focused ultrasonic sensor is positioned with a non
normal incidence angle above the surface. The sensor sends out an
ultrasonic pulse to the a personal computer for analysis and
calculation of roughness parameters.
Microscope
• Examination of surfaces by
microscope can be
informative.
• Complex method.
Electrical averaging method
• The instrument automatically average the
readings.
