Surface characterization in biology & medical technology
The demands placed on instruments that are used in biology or medicine, and in particular that come into contact with the human body, are extremely high. A great deal of importance is attached to the surface quality of such equipment, which includes dental implants and artificial hip joints. There are also high expectations of both the reliable functioning and a long service life of such equipment – and these represent the biggest challenges of all.
Surface profilers detect the beauty and all its details
