Total Height Of Profile (Rt, Pt, Wt)
Total height of profile is the vertical distance between the maximum profile peak height and the maximum profile valley depth along the evaluation length.
Surface Roughness Parameters
This section explains the main parameters of ISO 4287:1997. Each parameter is classified according to primary profile (P), roughness profile (R), and waviness profile (W) in order to evaluate different aspects of the profile. (When the wavelengths of the waviness and primary profile components are compared, the surface roughness component is the asperity component of that which has the comparatively shorter wavelength.)
