Description
A surface roughness measurement device is an instrument used to evaluate the texture of a material’s surface. It provides a numerical value of the surface roughness, which is an important factor in material science, manufacturing, and quality control. The device measures the irregularities or deviations from a perfectly smooth surface, which can affect how the material behaves, how it interacts with other surfaces, and its performance in specific applications. Surface roughness is quantified by parameters such as Ra (Arithmetic Average Roughness), Rz (Average Maximum Height of the Profile), Rt (Total Height), and other statistical measures that describe the roughness, waviness, and texture of the surface.
