The methodology of measurement and what is measured when calculating Ra and Rz are quite different. This is critical to understand if you will not be paid for your parts because the Ra you measured is not in fact the Rz surface profile that customer specified.
Ra is calculated by an algorithm that measures the average length between the peaks and valleys and the deviation from the mean line on the entire surface within the sampling length.
Ra averages all peaks and valleys of the roughness profile and then neutralizes the few outlying points so that the extreme points have no significant impact on the final results.
“Rz is calculated by measuring the vertical distance from the highest peak to the lowest valley within five sampling lengths, then averaging these distances. Rz averages only the five highest peaks and the five deepest valleys—therefore, extremes have a much greater influence on the final value.”
Ra is the arithmetical average value of all absolute distances of the roughness profile from the center line within the measuring length.
Rz is the average maximum peak to valley of five consecutive sampling lengths within the measuring length.
Ra averages all measurements and does not have any discriminating value in separating rejects from acceptable cylinders.”
When you want the better surface roughness of your parts, please feel free to contact More Super Hard, our experienced sales engineer will service for you.
PDC cutters are widely used for gas,oli drilling,coal minning etc.Grinding procession will directly influence the quality od PCD cutter.Moresuperhard provide diamond grinding wheel for grinding different parts of pdc cutter like surface grinding,external grinding wheel ,double-sided grinding disc and centerless grinding wheel.
In the grinding industry, ceramic diamond double-end grinding discs have attracted much attention for their high efficiency and high precision. In order to help newcomers quickly master the core knowledge in this field, Moresuperhard specially invited Jim, a sales expert in double-end grinding discs, to conduct a systematic training. From basic concepts to practical applications, this training content is full of practical content. Of course, in order to test the learning results, Jim assigned homework to everyone. The students' answers are all very good, which are summarized as follows for everyone to learn and refer to.
