Flaws are unexpected and unintentional interruptions in the texture.
Flaws are unexpected and unintentional interruptions in the texture.
This is the component of the surface texture upon which roughness is superimposed. Waviness may result from machine or work deflections, vibrations, chatter, heat treatment or warping strain.
When components are produced either by machining or by hand processes, the movement of the cutting tool leaves certain lines or patterns on the work surface. This is known as surface texture.
