A microscopy approach for in situ inspection of the ?CMM stylus for contamination (2017)
Journal Article
Feng, X., Pascal, J., & Lawes, S. (in press). A microscopy approach for in situ inspection of the ?CMM stylus for contamination. Measurement Science and Technology, 28(9), https://doi.org/10.1088/1361-6501/aa7c93

During the µCMM measurement process, contamination gradually builds up on the surface of the stylus tip and affects dimensional accuracy of the measurement. Regular inspection of the stylus for contamination is essential in determining the appropriat... Read More about A microscopy approach for in situ inspection of the ?CMM stylus for contamination.

Optimization of surface measurement for metal additive manufacturing using coherence scanning interferometry (2017)
Journal Article
Gomez, C., Su, R., Thompson, A., DiSciacca, J., Lawes, S., & Leach, R. K. (2017). Optimization of surface measurement for metal additive manufacturing using coherence scanning interferometry. Optical Engineering, 56(11), 1-8. https://doi.org/10.1117/1.OE.56.11.111714

Surface topography measurement for metal additive manufacturing (AM) is a challenging task for contact and non-contact methods. In this paper, we present an experimental investigation of the use of coherence scanning interferometry (CSI) for measurem...
