We often hear people compare very small sizes to “the width of a human hair.” Fair enough—most of us have a general sense of the size of a hair (it’s typically 50–130 microns wide, if you like to be specific!). Have you every actually looked at a hair at the surface texture scale? We acquired … Read more
This series of datasets covers the range of surface textures on a GAR Surface Roughness Microfinish Comparator. A comparator like this can be used to qualitatively gage surface finish, visually or by touch. The GAR S-22 Surface Roughness Scale Conventional Machining Microfinish Comparator used for this series. Measured via Zygo ZeGage Plus (10x) Data source: … Read more
Mold Tech is a collection of surface finishes for injection molded components, including geometric, organic, and natural patterned textures. A Mold Tech Texture Book (MT Texture Book), like the one below, contains “plaques” as samples of these textures: This dataset is a measurement of the Mold Tech MT-11520 surface. The finer textures like this were … Read more
