The paper presents a verification of the multifractal analysis proposed in other papers. It has been found that the analysis of simulated profiles formed by removing overlaps and secondary cracks from a real profile (which corresponds to a file obtained from a profilographometer) ensures proper diversity of fractal characterization, adequate for the degree of fracture surface development of the investigated grades of sintered carbide measured with a Taylor-Hobson's Talysurf 2 profilographometer.
