• Nano scratch resistance of polymer coatings
• Microindentation & scratch of DLC coatings
• Macro scratch of of gold coatings

3D Non-Contact Profilometry:

• Roughness of food packaging plastic
• LED phosphor coating surface topography measurement
• Volume loss of dental samples
• Depth of micro etching

Tribology:

• Wear rate of thin hard coatings
