In automotive industry CWS is well suited to be used for measuring inline on precision surfaces machined by fine-turning, grinding or polishing. Examples of components are camshaft, crankshaft, piston pins and gear components. Also coated or painted surfaces can be measured.
Surface parameters in focus for automotive applications:
- Surface roughness, correlation to Rq
- Assymetry and asymmetry angle
- Structure and structure angle
- Gloss
Benefits with CWS in automotive applications
- Fast measurement over large or small areas
- Area measurment
- Non-destructive measurement
- Traceble measurement results
