Abstract
A highly accurate measuring system has been developed for providing three–dimensional measurements of engineering surfaces and the quantification of surface degradations due to wear or other deformation processes. It is based on a stylus profile–tracing instrument, and incorporates an automatically controlled parallel–profile digitising stage. A software package has been developed to facilitate the processing, manipulation and visualisation of the data to research workers and/or customers. Examples of typical quantitative and qualitative full–colour surface representations produced by the system are shown.
