Measurement of Surface Roughness and Topography, 1996 Plastic Laminates Symposium Proceedings
The appearance and function of plastic laminates can be affected by the size, shape and spacing of topographic irregularities that are collectively called surface feature. These irregularities can be detected and evaluated using traditional surface roughness analysis instruments. Evaluation techniques include stylus or non-contact tracing of the sample, 2D or 3D visual characterization of the texture and numerical quantification based on standardized algorithms. Mahr Corporation offers both experience and equipment for all types of surface roughness evaluation.
