MetroSurf

Functional texturing is defined as the generation of geometric features—whether positive or negative—arranged in specific patterns on a component’s surface to enhance its properties. Consequently, the dimensional characterization of these surface structures is essential for ensuring both quality and functional performance. Therefore, a primary objective of this project is to develop the measurement equipment and … Read more

MultiMet

Currently, there is a wide range of metrological equipment focused on both macro- and micro-geometric dimensional characterization. However, macro-systems face limitations when measuring components smaller than 1 mm or dealing with complex, non-prismatic geometries where traditional 3D systems cannot achieve the required measurement uncertainties. Conversely, micro-geometric systems are typically restricted by their small measurement range … Read more
