Abstract:Determination of the stylus tip radius and its wear or damage is a classical problem in tactile surface topography measurements. The determination of the stylus geometry may be tedious and inconvenient, therefore we looked for an easily applicable method. This study shows that the Rsk parameter and the difference between the Rv and Rp parameter may indicate the stylus tip radius as well as wear when using a sine-wave profile material measure, which is commonly supplied with a roughness tester for calibrating a… Show more
