Surface
Envelope covering the solid body having direct exposure to the
surrounding environment
Types of Surface
Smooth surfaces are used for
higher load carrying capacity
optics
fluid flow (laminar)
low friction
Rough surfaces are used for
better lubrication
better grip

Contact Method
As the stylus traces across the sample, it rises and falls together
with the roughness on the sample surface.

Traversing length
Assessment length

Sampling length
Part
Traversing length: Length over which the pick-up is traversed across the surface
After steady state conditions are reached, data logging will begin
Assessment length: Length over which surface data is acquired and assessed.
Sampling length (cut-off length): Fundamental distance over which a surface
parameter is assessed.
Unless otherwise stated, surface parameters relate to this length
Usually this is 0.8 mm (usually 20 to 40 crossings of mean line and profile)

Amplitude parameters:

It represents the standard deviation of the distribution of surface heights
This parameter is more sensitive to large deviations from the mean line

Amplitude parameters
Peak parameters - Followed in Germany and USSR
Rp: Maximum height of the profile above mean line within SL
Rv: Maximum depth of the profile within SL
Rt: Maximum peak to valley height of profile in assessment length
Rt = Rp + Rv
Rt is often quite unstable
since it can be influenced
by dirt or vibration

Amplitude parameters
Amplitude Density Distribution Curve
The term amplitude density corresponds exactly to the term probability
density in statistics.
The curve indicates how much of the profile lies at a particular height.
It can be obtained by plotting the density of the profile heights on the
horizontal axis and the profile heights on the vertical axis.

Amplitude parameters
Rsk (Skewness):
Used to distinguish between surface
profiles having the same Ra or Rq
values but with different shapes.
It s a measure of symmetry of the
profile about mean line
A symmetrical height distribution, i.e.
with as many peaks as valleys, has
zero skewness.
Profile with valleys filled in or high peaks has positive skewness
Profile without peaks or deep scratches has negative skewness.
The value of skewness depends on whether the bulk of the material of the
sample is above (negative skewed) or below (positive skewed) the mean line.

Spatial parameters
High spot count HSC)
It is defined as the number of high regions of the profile above the mean
line, or above a line parallel to the mean line, per unit length along the
assessment length.
The profile shown in the figure has eight high sopts.

Hybrid parameters:
The hybrid property is a combination of amplitude and spacing.
Any changes, which occur in either amplitude or spacing, may have
effects on the hybrid property.
