We recently acquired three model “LM6708” tapered roller bearing assemblies from different manufacturers. We decided to have a look at how their surfaces compared, and differed, right out of the box. This dataset is the FKG bearing, which has a ground surface and several taller/deeper features. Setting the vertical scales equal to each other makes … Read more
We compared the surfaces of the grips on two of our favorite pens: the “Uniball Grip” that we use with our logo, and the Pilot G-7 that we use for the Notepad Series. Both are relatively inexpensive, but they both write very well, and both feel great to hold. We put both surfaces under … Read more

Orange, lemon, lime…can you tell which surface belongs to which fruit? Over the past couple of years we’ve worked with researchers doing some fascinating work with GelSight instruments and our OmniSurf3D software. This year we’re excited to have added a GelSight system to our measurement instrument collection. This series of measurements of various citrus skins … Read more

This year we’re excited to have added a GelSight system to our measurement instrument collection. This series of measurements of various citrus skins shows how the tactile gage can measure soft surfaces with great … Read more
