Surtronic Duo overview
What it does
The Surtronic Duo is a superior portable surface roughness tester
that measures multiple roughness parameters with a 1-button click.
Roughness measurement parameters Ra, Rz, Rp, Rv, Rz1max, Rsk, Rq
& Rku are displayed on a brightly lit intuitive 2.4” LCD colour display.
Its rechargeable battery operation makes it a convenient way of
performing fast, easy and precise on-the-spot measurements in almost
any environment and surface.
How it does it
The hard-wearing diamond stylus is drawn across the part with a
precision motorised traverse mechanism to ensure that the correct
horizontal distance is travelled. Vertical movement of the stylus is
detected by a high quality piezo-electric pick-up as it travels across
peaks and valleys which converts mechanical movement into electrical
signals. The electrical signal is digitised and sent to a microprocessor
for instant calculation of surface parameters using standardised
algorithms.
Charging
The mini USB port can be used for charging with the included mains
charger (or with any standard USB charger).
