Surface Texture Measurement - Engine Valves (Michigan Metrology)

3D surface texture impacts friction, wear, and many other functions. This video looks at 3D surface roughness measurement of automotive engine valves. This small part has several critical surfaces that impact performance, wear, engine noise, and more. Measuring these surfaces can be challenging, and we'll show you how it's done.
