Burr Measurement: A Round Robin Test Comparing Different Methods

Remaining burrs after machining pose a severe risk for components life, if the burrs get loose. To reduce or eliminate burrs several deburring technologies are applied. To choose a deburring system and to reveal the results of deburring it is necessary to be able to measure burrs. The results of a round robin test conducted within the working group of burrs within the CIRP (International Academy for Production Engineering) to compare different burr measurement systems are presented.
