Bel Air Finishing now offers a Surface Metrology Service utilizing non-contact white light interferometry technology. This technology offers many benefits over single line surface metrology technology such as stylus type profilometers;

• Roughness over an area.
• Roughness on parts with complex geometry (convex, concave, etc.)
• Properties of the surface finish (direction & depth of finish, etc.)
• 3D View of a defect (helps identify the cause)
• And much more…

Send us a picture of your parts, and we will provide a range estimate for your review.
