NBN EN 1370:1997

This standard describes a method for the evaluation of casting roughness by means of visualtactile comparators. The method is applicable to all casting processes for all cast materials. The method can be used for the assessment of castings or areas of castings in the as-cast condition (beyond removal of casting appendages, such as gates, risers and flash removal of residues of the moulding material). This method does not give a means of determining the qualityof castings by visual examination.
