Measuring Surface Finish on Small Brass Worms

Measuring Surface Finish on Small Brass Worms

Measuring Surface Finish on Small Brass Worms

(OP)
Can anyone steer me to a company that can measure the surface finish on .6 module brass worms (ie. 6 mm diameter)  Any companies I have tried have told me that the parts are too small for their equipment.

Any suggestions would be appreciated

RE: Measuring Surface Finish on Small Brass Worms

You might try a company with optical or laser microscopes that also have software for computing surface roughness.  Michigan Metrology may be an option.

RE: Measuring Surface Finish on Small Brass Worms

Can't you use visual methods to confirm your
surface finish?  How fine a surface do you need?
