Time 3200/3202 Surface Roughness Tester

Name: Time 3200/3202 Surface Roughness Tester
SKU: 126258

Designed as a multi-purpose surface roughness tester the TIME 3200/3202 is a versatile piece of equipment that can perform with high accuracy.

The TIME 3200/3202 comes as a complete kit but and can be extended for specific tasks like measuring in a deep groove, a small hole or in hard to reach places that have no room to position the complete device.
It is suitable for the more demanding test tasks due to its extensive range of functions. In addition to the basic functions, the device enables testing of many critical applications.

An inductive transducer with a diamond tip performs the physical measurements. Voltages are generated when the sensor is deflected, they are then converted into a roughness pattern by the instrument's electronic system.
The measured surface profiles can be presented on the display in addition to the different characteristics.
With a large spectrum of roughness measurement parameters, 13 for the 3200 and 17 for the TIME 3202, virtually every type of surface roughness measurement can be made using this device.

The TIME 3200/3202 surface roughness tester comes standard with a protective cover for the pickup and a steel support that is mounted to the back of the device. This enables the operator to elevate and level out the device when measuring above the plain surface. Plus there are several optional add-ons that enable specific measuring positions like a leveling table and a measuring platform.

The kit comes with a RS232 communication cable that can connect the TIME 3200/3202 with an optional printer or a PC that runs the software for TIME 3200/3202 surface roughness testers, or you can use the up to 15 groups data and graph internal storage that can be transferred at a later date, including all the measurement characteristics and surface profile.

The TIME 3200/3202 Surface Roughness Tester is designed for practical use in the workshop as well as for universal measurement tasks in the laboratory.

Surface roughness measurement

Surface roughness measurement,

Surface roughness is a variation in the material surface on a microscopic scale, it determines the visual effect of a surface, shiny or mat, and the friction of the material vs another surface sliding over it.
In a lot of cases the roughness determines the characteristics of the material or object. Things like the ability to form a seal when contacting another surface or the amount of heat and wear created from a bearing surface.
A smoother surface will also be less sensitive for dirt and bacteria growth and will therefore be easier to clean, this is important in food processing industries.
In other situation a minimum friction or higher adhesion is desired which requires a higher surface roughness.

To be able to compare the different surface roughness it is usually measured in Ra or Rz and will be calculated in µm or µin according to ISO 21920-2:2021
Measurements are usually made using a mechanical gauge or a laser scanner.

Ra provides the calculated average deviation of the surface from the mean value (value if the surface was perfectly flat) of the sampling area.
Rz provides the average of variation in height between the highs and lows of 5 lines within the sample surface area
Rt shows the maximum deviation between highs and lows within the sample surface area.
Sampling Length is the benchmark’s length used to determine its surface roughness.
Evaluation length is the total sample length required to determine the roughness of the material and may include more than one sample length.
