Surface roughness profile separation using singular spectrum analysis
Ziming Pang, Xiaochuan Gan, Ming Kong

TL;DR
This paper explores using Singular Spectrum Analysis (SSA) to separate surface roughness profiles and compares it to the ISO standard Gaussian filter method.
Contribution
The study introduces SSA as a viable alternative to the ISO Gaussian filter for surface roughness profile separation.
Findings
SSA can effectively separate roughness signals with an appropriate window length.
SSA produces roughness parameters comparable to the Gaussian filter, such as Ra, Rq, and Rku.
Abstract
Surface roughness is a critical parameter used to describe the microscopic geometric deviations of a part, and serves as an essential indicator for assessing the quality of surface processing in various mechanical components. This study evaluates Singular Spectrum Analysis (SSA) for surface roughness profile separation, comparing its effectiveness with the ISO standard Gaussian filter. Using NIST roughness measurement data, this study investigates how SSA’s window length and grouping method affect roughness parameters. The findings indicate that with an appropriately chosen window length, the SSA technique can effectively separate roughness signals and yield roughness parameter values comparable to those obtained using the Gaussian filter, such as the arithmetical mean deviation of the assessed profile (Ra), the root mean square deviation of the assessed profile (Rq), and the kurtosis…
