AbstractIn this study, three-probe error separation was developed with three chromatic confocal displacement sensors for roundness measurement. Here, the harmonic suppression is discussed first to set suitable orientation angles among three sensors. Monte Carlo simulation is utilized to test the error separation and optimize the orientation angles and off-axial distance. The experimental setup is established using chromatic confocal sensors with a precise rotary platform. The experimental results show that the measured roundness with an orientation-angle combination of (0°, 90.1°, and 178.6°) is much better than that of another nonoptimal selection (0°, 90.4°, and 177.4°). The roundness error is only 0.7% between the proposed measurement system and an expensive ultraprecision roundness meter. Furthermore, it is proven that the eccentricity distance should be decreased as small as possible to improve the measurement accuracy. In sum, this paper proposes a feasible method for roundness measurement with reliable simulations, easily integrated sensors, and an ordinary precision rotary platform.

This paper introduces a spindle error separation technique called orthogonal mixed method. The problem of harmonic suppression is solved by the orthogonal mixed method, which exists in the process of measurement based on three point method.The measuring system consisting of a displacement sensor and a angle sensor is developed for spindle error and roundness measurement. Two sensors, which are placed in the same plane perpendicular to the spindle axis, are mutual into 900. The principle of the critical angle method of total reflection are used by two sensors to separate rotation error from spindle error. Above all, the measured results show that this method indeed solve the problem of harmonic suppression, make the results of measurement more accurate.

A capacitive sensing system for measuring spindle roundness was proposed in this paper, it was different with the past method using inductive sensors and laser displacement sensors. Three capacitive displacement probes were installed circularly on the measured shaft, because of capacitive sensor with average effect in two electrode plates, it is able to overcome the affect of microscopic factors. while the shaft was rotating with a certain speed, the probes measured the shaft’s profile in non-contact mode simultaneously, then through linear combination for three output signals, the spindle error of the rotating shaft was eliminated, and the roundness error was effectively separated from the measurement results. The experiment results have verified the effectiveness of roundness error measuring system based on mutiple capacitive probes, this capacitive sensing system can be used for rotating shaft roundness measurement.

High precision position control is essential in the process of parts manufacturing and assembling, where eddy current displacement sensors (ECDSs) are widely used owing to the advantages of non-contact sensing, compact volume, and resistance to harsh conditions. To solve the nonlinear characteristics of the sensors, a high-accuracy calibration method based on linearity adjustment is proposed for ECDSs in this paper, which markedly improves the calibration accuracy and then the measurement accuracy. After matching the displacement value and the output voltage of the sensors, firstly, the sensitivity is adjusted according to the specified output range. Then, the weighted support vector adjustment models with the optimal weight of the zero-scale, mid-scale and full-scale are established respectively to cyclically adjust the linearity of the output characteristic curve. Finally, the final linearity adjustment model is obtained, and both the calibration accuracy and precision are verified by the established calibration system. Experimental results show that the linearity of the output characteristic curve of ECDS adjusted by the calibration method reaches over 99.9%, increasing by 1.9–5.0% more than the one of the original. In addition, the measurement accuracy improves from 11–25 μ m to 1–10 μ m in the range of 6mm, which provides a reliable guarantee for high accuracy displacement measurement.

In this paper, we propose a scheme for measuring the focal length of a collimating optical instrument. First, a mathematical model for measuring the focal length of a collimator with double gratings is derived based on the moiré fringe formula and the principles of geometric optics. Mathematical simulation shows that a slight difference in the focal length of two collimators has an important influence on the imaging law of moiré fringes. Our solution has a good resolution ability for focal length differences within 5‰, especially in the small angle range below 4°. Thus, the focal length of collimators can be measured by the amplification of the slight difference. Further, owing to the relative reference measurement, the measurement resolution at the symmetrical position of focal length is poor. Then, in the designed experiment, a corresponding moiré image at different angles is acquired using collimators with known focal length. The experimental results indicate that the root mean square error (RMSE) of the collimator corresponding to grating angles of 2°–4° is better than 4.7‰, indicating an ideal measurement accuracy of the proposed scheme. This work demonstrates that our proposed scheme can achieve an ideal accuracy in the measurement of a symmetrical optical path.

A mechanically pulsed suction thermocouple has been developed. The gas to be measured is sucked through a sonic orifice, thus eliminating the influence of the velocity inside the combustor. The signal from the thermocouple is processed by an analogue circuit. Contrary to the usual approach to the problem of dynamic temperature measurements (i.e., the attempt to find an exact solution to the extrapolation of the temperature rise curve) in this work, a calibration of the probe was done. This calibration showed very little scatter and a good repeatability. The overall measurement accuracy was better than ±1 percent. As a test of application, a partial survey of the temperature distribution within an aircraft gas turbine combustor was done. A satisfactory agreement was observed between temperatures measured by the thermocouple and those determined from gas analysis. In this test the pulse thermocouple proved to be a reliable and fast tool for the measurement of local gas temperatures.
