  2. Surface finish - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_finish

    Surface finish. Surface finish, also known as surface texture or surface topography, is the nature of a surface as defined by the three characteristics of lay, surface roughness, and waviness. [1] It comprises the small, local deviations of a surface from the perfectly flat ideal (a true plane). Surface texture is one of the important factors ...

  3. Surface roughness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_roughness

    Surface roughness, often shortened to roughness, is a component of surface finish (surface texture). It is quantified by the deviations in the direction of the normal vector of a real surface from its ideal form. If these deviations are large, the surface is rough; if they are small, the surface is smooth. In surface metrology, roughness is ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_finishing

    Surface finishing. A drill bit with surface finishing to make the cutting edges harder. Surface finishing is a broad range of industrial processes that alter the surface of a manufactured item to achieve a certain property. [1] Finishing processes may be employed to: improve appearance, adhesion or wettability, solderability, corrosion ...

  5. Surface metrology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_metrology

    Surface metrology. Surface metrology is the measurement of small-scale features on surfaces, and is a branch of metrology. Surface primary form, surface fractality, and surface finish (including surface roughness) are the parameters most commonly associated with the field. It is important to many disciplines and is mostly known for the ...

  6. Surface plate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_plate

    A 250 mm x 250 mm surface plate. A surface plate is a solid, flat plate used as the main horizontal reference plane for precision inspection, marking out (layout), and tooling setup. [1] The surface plate is often used as the baseline for all measurements to a workpiece, therefore one primary surface is finished extremely flat with tolerances ...

  7. Profilometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Profilometer

    A profilometer is a measuring instrument used to measure a surface's profile, in order to quantify its roughness. Critical dimensions as step, curvature, flatness are computed from the surface topography. While the historical notion of a profilometer was a device similar to a phonograph that measures a surface as the surface is moved relative ...

  8. Superfinishing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superfinishing

    Superfinishing, also known as microfinishing [1] and short-stroke honing, is a metalworking process that improves surface finish and workpiece geometry. This is achieved by removing just the thin amorphous surface layer of fragmented or smeared metal left by the last process with an abrasive stone or tape; this layer is usually about 1 μm in magnitude.

  9. Grinding wheel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grinding_wheel

    Spacing or structure, from 1 (density) to 17 (least dense). Density is the ratio of bond and abrasive to air space. A less-dense wheel will cut freely, and has a large effect on surface finish. It is also able to take a deeper or wider cut with less coolant, as the chips clearance on the wheel is greater.
