Measuring surface roughness of skinny plastic part
Measuring surface roughness of skinny plastic part
(OP)
Hi all,
We have a plastic (UHMWPE or nylon) wheel. It's 30mm in diameter, and only 4mm wide.
Want to measure the surface roughness across the 4mm face.
Does anyone know is it possible to measure surface roughness on plastics like that?
And across such a short distance while on a radius?
Thanks
CBecks

for some reason I didn't see Keyence advertising on that page.

I've used a couple of optical and had a couple of laser systems demoed and I am highly suspect of them. Sounds good on paper but real life parts seem to throw a lot of curve balls.
