How should you correctly measure a surface?
Whether you work with contact or optical profilometers, one of the biggest challenges in surface metrology isn’t capturing data – it’s knowing how to measure and analyze it properly.
In this practical webinar, we will guide you step by step through the key decisions that ensure reliable, meaningful surface measurements.
Speaker: Claire Kayser, Product Manager for Profilometry at Digital Surf
You’ll learn:
- How to choose the right type of instrument based on surface characteristics
- When a profile measurement is sufficient – and when full areal analysis is necessary
- How ISO standards (ISO 21920 and ISO 25178) influence your measurement strategy
- How to correctly apply S-, F-, and L-filters to obtain trustworthy results
- Which parameters are most relevant depending on surface type
- What to do when specifications are missing
Through real examples and practical demonstrations, we’ll explore stochastic, directional and structured surfaces and show how measurement strategy must adapt to texture complexity.
This session is designed for:
- Engineers and technicians using profilometers
- Quality control specialists
- Surface metrology professionals
- Researchers working with surface measurement data
- Both new and experienced users
Whether you use Mountains® software or another analysis solution, this webinar will help you make better, more confident surface measurement decisions.
