Registration is open for Michigan Metrology’s new one-day Surface Metrology and Tribology class, which will be held in Livonia, Michigan, November 14, 2024.

The one-day class offers an opportunity to learn the fundamentals of surface roughness, friction, and wear analysis and their applications in manufacturing and product development.

“Over the years, many people have requested a one-day version of our annual, two-day texture and tribology short course,” said Don Cohen, Ph.D., who established Michigan Metrology in 1994. “This new version of the class focuses on the material that matters most for the majority of people working with surface roughness and texture. For students looking for a deeper dive, the two-day class will still be held annually each spring.”

Topics for the one-day class include:

  • Measuring surface roughness and waviness.
  • Instruments for surface measurement.
  • Filtering texture data.
  • Analysis techniques and tools.
  • Surface texture parameters.
  • Applications and case studies.

“We have been refining and expanding our classes for over 20 years,” said Cohen. “We are now able to offer both this one-day class and the more in-depth two-day short course. Both options are thorough and affordable opportunities to learn the fundamentals of surface texture analysis and its applications.”

Since 1994, Michigan Metrology has been providing high-volume inspection services and solving problems related to surface roughness, wear, texture, finish, flatness, and more. Using advanced 3D surface roughness measurement and analysis techniques, state-of-the-art equipment, and expert understanding of 3D surface metrology, the company has helped thousands of clients with solutions for surface development, manufacturing process issues and product warranty concerns.
