Hello Everybody,
I am about to start some testing on cylindrical samples (2cm diameter x 10cm length) that are subject to wear in a fluidized bed and I am looking for a profilometer for my mesurements of the wear rate on those samples. I have been looking around but it's been hard to find some affordable equipment which could place the dimensions of my samples. Does someone know a profilometer that could meet my needs?
Thanks for the help,
ACR
