Copper rod surface quality by atomic force microscope

$15.00

The surface quality of copper rod, in practice, is classified by different methods, all of which use a combination of visual inspection and/or counts from eddy current testers. To classify the surface quality of the rod we used an Atomic Force Microscope to measure the actual topography of the surface.
