Publisher's Synopsis
The objective of this book is to provide the manufacturing industry with theoretical and practical information on optical surface finish measurement techniques, especially for high quality surface finishes which in future will have to be routinely achieved. This is accomplished by describing the theoretical operation of the various techniques together with their practical implementations and limitations. "Optical Surface Finish Measurement Techniques" should be of interest to manufacturing engineers, technical managers, and researchers in manufacturing industry. It should also appeal to postgraduate students in manufacturing technology.
