Fig. 3   Surtronic 3+

Function/capability:

  • The Surtronic 3+ is a portable, self contained instrument for the measurement of surface texture.
  • Parameters available for surface texture evaluation are: Ra, Rq, Rz(DIN), Ry and Sm.
  • Cut-off values : 0.25mm, 0.80mm, 2.50mm
  • Traverse lengths : 1/4 Lambda + n Lambda; ( n = 1, 3, 5, 10, 25.4 )

Research projects:

  • Failure mode of dental materials. (Dr. Wang Yan)
  • The in-vitro formation of Candida albicans biofilms on titanium discs with different surface roughness and their susceptibility to Am photericin B. (Dr. Hyden Ng)
