Surface roughness affects friction, wear, fatigue, and appearance. Proper specification prevents unnecessary cost or inadequate performance.

Пошаговое руководство

  1. 1Measure Ra (average roughness) in micrometers or microinches
  2. 2Typical values: rough (3.2-6.3 μm), normal (0.8-1.6 μm), smooth (0.05-0.2 μm)
  3. 3Specify based on functional requirements

Решённые примеры

Ввод
Bearing surface typically requires Ra <0.4 μm (smooth)
Результат
Specify fine grinding or lapping
Affects bearing life

Распространённые ошибки

  • Over-specifying finish (unnecessary cost)
  • Under-specifying and causing functional problems

Часто задаваемые вопросы

Why does roughness matter for bearings?

Rough surfaces cause higher friction and wear. Smooth surfaces reduce wear 10-100×.

Does fine surface finish improve fatigue strength?

Yes, polished surfaces have ~50% higher fatigue strength than rough surfaces.
