The AG-280 roughness and waviness meter, as an integrated measuring device, is easy to operate and adaptable to various scenarios. The following is a detailed operation and usage process to help users quickly master the instrument application method.

1、 Preparation before use

(1) Equipment inspection: After unpacking, confirm that the host, standard measuring needle, roughness standard test block, product certificate, instruction manual, warranty card, random tools, and host are fully configured and undamaged or missing.

(2) Power preparation: The instrument supports built-in rechargeable battery power supply. When charging, it needs to be connected to an AC220V ± 10% power supply and a matching AC transformer. The charging time is about 3 hours; After being fully charged, it can complete about 50 measurements, meeting the needs of mobile measurement.

(3) Environmental requirements: The instrument should be placed in a flat environment such as a workshop calibration station, laboratory, and measuring room. It can also be used for on-site and in-situ measurement to ensure that the measurement environment is free from factors such as severe vibration and excessive dust that affect measurement accuracy.

2、 Startup and Basic Settings

(1) Power on operation: Long press the instrument power button to start the device, wait for the system initialization to complete, and then enter the main operation interface.

(2) Language selection: In the main interface settings options, select the Chinese or English operating language according to your needs. After confirmation, the system will switch to the corresponding language display.

(3) Configuration call: The instrument software has built-in configuration records for different operating scenarios. For measuring different workpieces, there is no need for cumbersome settings. Simply select the matching preset configuration from the configuration list; If there is no corresponding preset, you can enter the custom configuration mode to set parameters.

3、 Workpiece placement and sensor adjustment

(1) Workpiece fixing: Place the workpiece to be measured steadily in the measurement area, ensuring that the measuring surface of the workpiece is free of oil stains and impurities. Auxiliary fixing tools can be used to keep the workpiece stable and avoid displacement during the measurement process.

(2) Sensor height adjustment: The sensor is connected to the host through a lifting frame, without the need for an additional platform. The height of the lifting frame can be manually adjusted to bring the measuring needle close to the measuring surface of the workpiece, ensuring appropriate contact between the measuring needle and the workpiece surface and avoiding excessive compression or poor contact.

4、 Confirmation of measurement parameters and initiation of measurement

(1) Measurement type selection: In the operation interface, select any measurement type from roughness profile, waviness profile, raw profile, support curve or graph according to the measurement requirements.

(2) Parameter and filter settings: Confirm the standards used for measurement (supporting multiple countries and standards such as JIS, ISO, DIN, ASME, GB, etc.), set the filter type (Gaussian, FFT, PC, DP, 2RC, etc.), filter parameters (λ c, λ s, λ f), evaluation length (sampling length x number of samples, supporting standard mode and custom mode), measurement speed (0.05mm/s, 0.10mm/s, 0.50mm/s, 1.00mm/s, 2.00mm/s), return speed (optional gear for the same measurement speed) according to the characteristics of the workpiece and measurement requirements.

(3) Start measurement: After all parameter settings are completed, click the "One click Measurement" button on the interface, and the instrument will automatically measure according to the preset parameters. The measuring needle moves along the X direction to collect surface data of the workpiece. Do not touch the workpiece or sensor during the measurement process.

5、 Viewing and outputting measurement results

(1) Result viewing: After the measurement is completed, the system will automatically generate measurement data and characteristic curves (such as support rate curve, amplitude frequency analysis curve, amplitude distribution curve, etc.), which will be displayed intuitively on the 5-inch color touch screen. Users can view various measurement parameter values, contour graphics, and other information.

(2) Data output: If you need to save or print measurement results, you can select PDF format storage through interface operation, or connect to WiFi for printing, which is convenient for subsequent data archiving and analysis.

6、 Shutdown and maintenance

(1) Shutdown operation: After the measurement work is completed, exit the measurement interface first, ensure that the data has been saved, and then long press the power button to turn off the instrument.

(2) Daily maintenance: Clean the surface of the measuring needle to avoid oil stains and impurities affecting measurement accuracy. The measuring needle is made of 5 μ mR diamond 90 ° material and should be handled gently to avoid collision damage; When the instrument is idle, it should be stored in a waterproof box of the host to avoid moisture and dust contamination; Regularly check the connection between the sensor and the host to ensure a secure connection.

(3) Battery maintenance: When the instrument is not used for a long time, it is necessary to ensure that the battery is fully charged and stored, and regularly replenish the battery to avoid battery damage caused by depletion.
