Abstract
A stylus abrasion detection method includes obtaining a measurement curve of a standard specimen in which an unevenness that changes periodically is formed on a surface, by causing a stylus to trace along the surface of the standard specimen, detecting a displacement of the stylus in a direction perpendicular to the tracing direction, and using the displacement for obtaining the measurement curve; performing a frequency analysis on the measurement curve; calculating an abrasion amount of the stylus from a result of the frequency analysis; and displaying the abrasion amount calculated by the abrasion amount calculation.
