Surface roughness directly impacts sealing performance, friction, wear, coating adhesion, fatigue life, and overall product quality. Yet many manufacturing specifications still rely on Ra, a parameter developed nearly a century ago from a single 2D measurement trace. As modern surfaces become increasingly engineered and complex, manufacturers are discovering that traditional roughness measurements do not always provide the complete picture.

Part inspection is essential to manufacturing quality, but it also consumes production time, floor space, engineering attention, and capital. As manufacturers push for faster throughput and tighter tolerances, inspection systems must do more than find defects; they must reduce touch time, preserve valuable shop-floor space, and deliver reliable data without slowing production.
