3D Metrology Services – Commercial – Light Colored Quartz Countertop Surface Roughness Inspection

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. 

Surface Base Material Measurement Example

An example of a Surface Roughness Measurement using 3D profiles to extract roughness data from a light colored quartz countertop sample is shown below.

Capture Data on Unpolished Light Quartz Surface

A 3D topographical map displays a textured surface with varying elevations represented by a color gradient. The surface features numerous depressions, some of which are colored in shades of blue and purple, indicating lower elevations. A color scale on the left side of the image quantifies the height differences, ranging from approximately -1772 to 707.4. The overall impression is of a complex, uneven terrain.

 

Extract and Analyze Critical Data on Unpolished Light Quartz

A surface profilometry graph displays the surface roughness of a material, with a red bar indicating the measurement path on a textured surface above. The graph shows significant variations in depth, indicating an uneven surface with peaks and valleys.

Capture Data on Polished Light Quartz Surface

A 3D topographical map displays a textured surface with variations in height, indicated by a color gradient from blue to green, with some purple and yellow spots representing extreme elevations or depressions. A color scale on the left shows height values ranging from -236.2 to 315, with increments of approximately 78.74. The map appears to be a close-up view of a material's surface, possibly for scientific or industrial analysis.

 

Extract and Analyze Critical Data on Polished Light Quartz

The image displays a 2D surface profile analysis of a material, likely asphalt or concrete, indicated by the textured gray surface at the top. A red bar highlights the specific area being analyzed. Below this, a graph plots the surface's depth (in micrometers) against its path length. The blue line shows significant variations, with peaks and deep troughs, suggesting an uneven and rough surface texture. The y-axis ranges from approximately -55.055 micrometers to 16.685 micrometers, and the x-axis represents the path length in some unit, with major grid lines at intervals of roughly 25,000 units.
