In the printing industry the examination of the surface quality of
rotogravure cylinders or anilox rollers is decisive for the consisting
quality of the printing products. Inspection by means of the 3D-Volume
measuring system µ-surf allows fast and precise surface structure
characterization on the shop floor
This newly developed mobile measuring system was specially designed
for the surface inspection of large component parts, such as rotogravure
cylinders. Due to its compact design with bend optics it is largely
resistant to vibrations and achieves a high precision. The motorized

the computer-based distance tracking, it is possible to use combined
measurements series (stitching) along the curved surfaces (e.g. along the
circumference of the roll). In addition to roughness evaluation, modern
surface analyses can be carried out to determine the 3D properties (e.g.
the volume). In the printing industry, for example the mobile measuring
system is used for quality control of chrome rollers and for volume
measuring of cells on laser structured (metal or ceramic), engraved and
etched rotogravure cylinders. The following measuring values can be
determined: length, width, depth, area, screen and volume. The mobile
