The Development Of The Computer Controlled Electro-Fiber Optic System For Surface Roughness Measurement Of Metals

The measurement of the surface roughness requires the advanced measuring systems when the mirror finished surfaces are concerned. The use of mechanical method gives the measurement errors and damages the surface. Therefore, the alternative measurement systems must become necessary to investigate. The present study covers the design and development of the electro - fiber - optic system for the experimental purposes. It is found that electro - fiber - optic system results are in a good agreement with the mechanical measurements results.
