A.4. Surface Roughness<br />

<str<strong>on</strong>g>The</str<strong>on</strong>g> measurements <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> surface roughness used in this report are standard measurements<br />

produced by a laser surface pr<str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g>iler. <str<strong>on</strong>g>The</str<strong>on</strong>g> values are based <strong>on</strong> German DIN standards but<br />

typical <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> roughness measurements specified in numerous machining handbooks.<br />

Z 1<br />

Z 2 = R max<br />

Z 3<br />

Z 4<br />

L<br />

R max = <strong>the</strong> largest single roughness depth within <strong>the</strong> evaluati<strong>on</strong> length. <str<strong>on</strong>g>The</str<strong>on</strong>g> required<br />

standard is DIN 4768<br />

R z = mean value <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> <strong>the</strong> single roughness depths “Z” <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> c<strong>on</strong>secutive sampling lengths. <str<strong>on</strong>g>The</str<strong>on</strong>g><br />

required standard is DIN 4768<br />

R z = (Z 1 + Z 2 + Z 3 + ….. + Z n )/n<br />

R a = is <strong>the</strong> arithmetic mean <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> <strong>the</strong> areas <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> all pr<str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g>ile values <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> <strong>the</strong> roughness pr<str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g>ile.<br />

R a = [Integral {y(x)}dx] /L<br />
