Wear
 
Measurements
1. Depth of wear - maximum y distance from the extrapolated original surface to the existing worn 
surface, shown as "Min" in data table.  Surface projection is made using a second order polynomial line fit to both the left and right portions of the parent material.  This allows the program to work on both flat and curved surfaces.
2. Width of wear -maximum x distance between the outer edges of the worn parent material, shown as "Wid" in the data table. 
 

Industry Examples
1. Aircraft Engines - measurement of the wear on tubing and pipes due to friction.
2. Space - inspection of wear on seals and gaskets.
3. Remanufacturing - measurements of wear on gears and other components to determine whether they can be reworked or must be scrapped.
4. Turbine Engines - inspection of wear on pressure face of fan disks.


Sensors and Controllers
Sensor selection will be dependent on the size of the part, the size of worn area and on the resolution required.  Any of the sensors and controllers could be used for this application.  Sensor stand-off's that fit over the part or guide the sensor into the correct measurement position will help the user obtain consistent and repeatable results.
