At EDM Intelligent Solutions, our high-resolution 3D metrology systems allow us to provide our customers with quick and accurate surface roughness measurements of their products. Surface roughness measurement quantifies the frequency of peaks and valleys in the base material of a surface. Our 3D Metrology Services team offers our customers in-depth and non-contact measurements of almost any shape, size, and form.
An example of a Surface Roughness Measurement using 3D profiles to extract roughness data from a dark colored quartz countertop sample is shown below.
