Stylus damage prevention index

Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part C: Journal of Mechanical Engineering Science, 2000
Stylus methods for measuring surfaces have sometimes been blamed for causing damage to the surface because of the stylus pressure. This paper investigates this possibility and develops a ‘potential damage index’ which takes into account the instrument parameters, static and dynamic, and surface parameters.

Preventing Potato Bruise Damage

Bruising costs the U.S. potato industry hundreds of millions of dollars annually and penalizes growers via lower prices, reduced demand and increased storage loss. This training guide helps producers, packers and shippers avoid these shortfalls by identifying the types of bruising (skinning, blackspot, shatter bruise and pressure bruise); by detailing ...
