ABSTRACT:
The surface parameters and characteristics of a conductive workpiece are determined by applying a voltage between the workpiece and a capacitance probe having proximity sensing capabilities, and moving the probe in two or three co-ordinate axes relative to the workpiece while measuring the capacitance between the probe and workpiece, and controlling the probe velocity and/or direction within a stand-off band adjacent to the workpiece as a function of the capacitance value measured for purposes of effecting significant real time process controls, and determining the workpiece surface parameters as a function of the probe movement and capacitance measured.
