The Effect of Surface Preparation on Result Deviations During Roughness Measurements Using the Contact Method
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: This paper presents the influence of the preparation of the inspected surface on the deviations obtained when measuring the basic roughness parameters using the contact method. The problems described in the article are often encountered in industry when measurements are performed in mass production conditions, where a short measurement time is extremely important. Presented are the measurement results of five samples made of 1.0503 steel after the grinding process, subjected to various methods of preparation for roughness measurement: sample immediately after treatment, sample after treatment and after evaporation of liquid part of the coolant, sample after blowing with compressed air, sample after blowing with compressed air and washing in isopropyl alcohol, and the sample after blowing with compressed air and washing with acetone. The measurement results obtained from the contact profilometer provide the basis for developing recommendations regarding the preparation of surfaces for inter-operational and final measurements in the production process.
