euspen is delighted to partner with the National Physical Laboratory UK to bring you this meeting. NPL is the UK's National Measurement Institute and a world-leading centre of excellence in developing and applying the most accurate measurement standards, science and technology available.

New work on areal surface topography at NPL

NPL
NPL has recently completed a project to allow industry to benefit from the use of areal surface topography measurement to enhance a range of high-value products. The surface topography of a component part can have a profound effect on the function of the part. In tribology, it is the surface that influences such quantities as friction, wear and the lifetime of a component.

New optical metrology technique

Alicona Imaging GmbH have pioneered a new optical measurement technique that allows in-depth metrology of 3-D surfaces in the micro and nano range, and meets the ISO 25178 standard for topographical measurement. Full story on micromanufacturing.com.

European Metrology Research Programme (EMRP)

A call for potential metrology research topics on EMRP is open now to any entity or individual. The deadline for submissions is 28th March 2010.

'Microparts’ Interest Group Workshop
