The PCE-RT 10 is a roughness tester designed to measure the surface texture or roughness of materials. This device is typically used in manufacturing and material science to ensure that surfaces meet specific roughness standards, which are critical for the performance and durability of mechanical components.
The tester is portable, making it convenient for use both in the lab and in field settings, allowing users to conduct on-the-spot assessments of material surfaces. It’s especially valuable in quality control processes where precise surface specifications are required.
The surface texture meter is used as a control tool in various mechanical manufacturing processes. This device displays all measured results in real-time on its LCD screen. To assess the roughness of a surface, the sensor must be positioned directly on it. The sensor then uniformly samples the surface as it moves along its guide rail.
