In world literature much attention is devoted not only to the conscious surface shaping, but also to many problems that can be encountered during surface measurement. The development of surface metrology tries to respond to many industrial needs and keep up with sophisticated production techniques. Nevertheless the estimation and comparison of surfaces after several successive treatments is still complicated. For this purpose, the authors proposed the use of a correlation function to evaluate milled and then burnished surfaces, which is an alternative instrument to the parametric evaluation of the surface topography. This method can directly give an answer, whether the technological process has been carried out as expected. The measurements were carried out using a multi-sensor AltiSurf A520 instrument, manufactured by Altimet, according to its own developed methodology.
