Roughness Tester

Introduction

A roughness tester measures surface texture and irregularities. It is widely used in manufacturing and material testing. The system ensures surface quality evaluation. It solves subjective inspection errors. By providing digital profiling, it supports precision engineering.

Standards

ISO 4287:1997-Geometrical Product Specifications (GPS)-Surface texture: Profile method-Terms, definitions and surface texture parameters

ISO 4288:1996-GPS-Surface texture: Profile method-Rules and procedures for the assessment of surface texture

Complies with the above standards, but is not limited to them.

Features

1. Clear labelling and colour-coded controls reduce operator error.

2. Durable construction suits routine laboratory use.

3. Clear controls and display support straightforward operation.

4. Low running costs and no locked consumable requirement.

5. Safety devices protect samples, the unit and the operator.

FAQ

What is the Roughness Tester mainly used for?

The Roughness Tester is used for a defined laboratory measurement, preparation or processing task. It supports analytical, quality-control, research, clinical or industrial work where consistent, repeatable results are required.

Which standards and regulations apply to the Roughness Tester?

The instrument is designed with reference to IEC 61010 electrical safety, the applicable international standard for the measurement or process and relevant GB/T standards. Procedures should follow the relevant method. Compliance documentation can be provided on request.

How long is the warranty period?

We provide a 12-month limited warranty on the instrument and its key working parts. Consumables, accessories and parts subject to normal wear are excluded, as is damage caused by incorrect operation or maintenance. An extended service plan is available on request.

How easy is the Roughness Tester to use?

The controls are designed for regular laboratory use, so most users become confident after a brief introduction. The manual walks through each step, and common settings can be saved for repeat work. Online or on-site training is available if the site requires it.

How long does delivery usually take?

Standard models require 7-30 working days. In-stock units can ship within 3-7 working days. Custom configurations or large built-to-order systems may require additional time, and we confirm the exact schedule before order confirmation.

Is calibration included?

The unit is calibrated and tested before delivery. For ongoing accuracy, verify it against traceable reference standards every 6 to 12 months, or according to the laboratory quality schedule. We can arrange calibration service and certificates where required.

Are consumables and spare parts easy to obtain?

Filters, seals, probes and similar items are standard and can be supplied through our channel. Customers may also source equivalent items that meet the specification. Provide the model and serial number to confirm compatibility before ordering.

Can the Roughness Tester be customised?

A range of options is available to match the application, such as alternative settings, fittings, data outputs or power supply. We confirm each option and its effect on price and schedule up front. Larger custom builds can be discussed.

Do you provide on-site installation?

Standard installation is straightforward and supported by the manual and start-up documentation. Our technical team can guide staff remotely through checks and validation. On-site commissioning is available as a quoted service.

What maintenance and safety points matter?

Do not use the instrument outside its rated range or intended samples, skip calibration or ignore safety and maintenance instructions. Follow the operating manual and laboratory safety rules.
