Traceable measurements of surface form and property are essential for controlling the use of or assessing the condition of machined parts and tools in high precision mechanical manufacturing machines - especially when these components are subject to wear and surface contamination.
EMPIR project Multifunctional ultrafast microprobes for on-the-machine measurements (17IND05, MicroProbes) is working to develop new tactile microprobes for reliable and ultrafast, on-the-machine (i.e. in-line) topographical micro-form and roughness measurements. The microprobes are able to provide measurements 30 times faster than other, conventional and fast methods that use contact resonance and force-distance curves to measure adhesion, stiffness, friction, coating thickness and to detect contaminants through adhesion contrast. This workshop will present results from the project.
