Abstract

In this paper, the development of a number of material measures, which are designed to allow users to calibrate areal surface texture instruments, is presented. The material measures include grid structures, which allow the determination of the amplification, linearity and squareness of the x, y and z-axes, and star patterns, which allow the determination of the lateral period limit. Relatively complex methods of manufacture have been used to produce master artefacts, which are then replicated to produce cost-effective artefacts for users. The process chain for the material measures is presented along with the methods used to calibrate them.
