Facility Description
Accurate 2D and 3D form and roughness measurement
Capable of detailed surface contour and profile analysis
Measures heights and depths ranging from microns to millimeters
Delivers precise surface texture data for various materials
A Formtracer is a surface measurement system that uses a stylus or probe to scan the surface of a sample and measure its topography. The stylus, typically diamond-tipped, moves across the surface, detecting vertical displacements caused by surface features like peaks and valleys. These height variations are recorded, creating a detailed 2D or 3D surface profile. Formtracers are widely used in precision engineering and quality control to measure surface roughness, texture, and form with high accuracy.
