Michigan Metrology, experts in solving problems related to surface texture, wear, finish and friction, are now offering courses in surface texture analysis, friction and wear in online formats. "These courses are designed for scientists, engineers and technicians working in medical devices, automotive, aerospace, materials, polymers, and other fields," said Don Cohen, Ph.D., who presents the courses. "We have been holding classes in surface metrology and tribology for over fifteen years. Presenting the classes online will make this fundamental material available to a wider audience of people who cannot easily travel to attend the training in person." The Surface Roughness/Texture and Tribology courses cover measuring roughness, waviness and form, an introduction to surface measurement instruments, an overview of data analysis techniques and tools, fundamentals of lubrication and more. A 4-hour version of the class is available via the online training site Udemy. This version of the course offers a thorough introduction to the topics above in a self-paced, downloadable format.
