Surface roughness often shortened to roughness, is a component of surface texture. It is quantified by the deviations in the direction of the normal vector of a real surface from its ideal form. If these deviations are large, the surface is rough; if they are small, the surface is smooth. Roughness is typically considered to be the high-frequency, short-wavelength component of a measured surface (see surface metrology). However, in practice it is often necessary to know both the amplitude and frequency to ensure that a surface is fit for a purpose.
Roughness plays an important role in determining how a real object will interact with its environment. Rough surfaces usually wear more quickly and have higher friction coefficients than smooth surfaces (see tribology). Roughness is often a good predictor of the performance of a mechanical component, since irregularities in the surface may form nucleation sites for cracks or corrosion. On the other hand, roughness may promote adhesion.

how do we define average roughness
Average Roughness—in surface texture measurement, it's one of the most frequently specified surface roughness parameters. In this video we look at how average roughness (Ra, or Sa) is calculated for 2D (profile) and 3D (areal) measurements. We look at what Ra can — and can't — tell us about a surface. And, we discuss the differences between Ra and Sa, and some similar parameters that you may encounter in surface texture analysis software.

SJ-310 Portable Surface Roughness Tester
A portable surface roughness tester able to operate independently of mains power and make measurements on almost any part of a workpiece of practically any size. The large 5.7" color LCD with touch-screen functionality improves operability and provides high visibility. Statistical analysis of up to 3 parameters from 300 samples can be performed showing average, standard deviation, max, min, pass rate and histogram. Up to ten measurement setups, along with stored data, can be displayed and printed out on the built-in thermal printer, or stored in the built-in memory.
