Methods for increasing the measurement range of the height of surface profile by the interference profilometer are proposed. The methods are based on using of multiple light sources with different wavelengths. It was shown experimentally that the measurement range increased at least 5 times due to using of two wavelengths, and at least 7 times due to using three wavelengths, while maintaining the resolution of the measurements.

A two-dimensional surface profile imaging technique based on heterodyne interferometer is proposed. A piezo translator vibrated grating is used to generate a heterodyne signal. A high speed CCD camera is used to extract the interference signal using a five step method. The uncertainty in the displacement measurement is approximately 0.035 µm within a measurement range of 1.7 µm, confirming the two dimensional heterodyne interferometer is valid for measuring the surface profile. The method is also available for low coherence heterodyne interferometer due to the optical frequency shifts caused by the vibration of grating independent on the wavelength.

Abstract Confocal probes are widely employed in many industrial fields due to the depth-sectioning effect. The author’s group has also proposed a chromatic confocal probe employing a mode-locked femtosecond laser source which can realize an axial resolution of 30 nm and a measurement range of 40 μm Efforts have also been made to improve the thermal stability of the developed femtosecond laser chromatic confocal probe so that the probe can be applied for long-term displacement measurement or surface profile measurement. Meanwhile, surface profile measurement has not been carried out by using the developed femtosecond laser chromatic confocal probe. For the verification of the performance of developed probe in profile measurement, in this paper, an experimental setup is built and a basic experiment is carried out. By using the probe with further improved thermal stability, the measurement of a sample surface profile is carried out. In this paper, the development of the experimental setup with the femtosecond laser chromatic confocal probe, as well as the results of the surface profile measurements, is presented.

Abstract An optimization study using the design of experiment technique is described, in which the surface profile height of a freeform surface, determined in coordinate measurements, is the response variable. The control factors are coordinate sampling parameters, i.e. the sampling grid size and the measuring tip diameter. As a result of the research, an optimal combination of these parameters was found for surface mapping with acceptable measurement uncertainty. The presented study is the first stage of optimization of machining error correction for the freeform surface and was intended to take into account mechanical-geometric filtration of surface irregularities caused by these geometrical parameters. The tests were carried out on a freeform workpiece milled with specific machining parameters, Ra of the surface roughness was 1.62 μm. The search for the optimal combination of parameters was conducted using Statistica software.

Confocal probes have been widely adopted in various industries owing to their depth-sectioning effects. A dual-detector differential chromatic confocal probe using a mode-locked femtosecond laser source is proposed herein, and the measurement range expansion of the probe using a supercontinuum light source is discussed. Supercontinuum light has an extremely wide spectrum. A simulation based on wave optics is performed to evaluate the detection sensitivity and measurable range by considering the chromatic aberration of the lens materials. Additionally, an experimental setup is constructed using a supercontinuum light source, and its feasibility is validated. A measurable range of 200 μm is adopted in the experiment, and three-dimensional surface profile measurements are performed. However, the developed confocal probe has not been used for surface topography measurements. Experiments are conducted to verify the performance of the developed probe.

Abstract A simple method for measuring grating groove density as well as its position and orientation is proposed based on the idea of ERT (Experimental Ray Tracing). Conventional methods only measure grating groove density with accuracy limited by its rotary stage and goniometer. The method proposed in the paper utilizes linear guides which could be calibrated to much higher accuracy. It is applicable to gratings of arbitrary surface profile or mosaic of a group of various gratings. Various measurement error sources are simulated by the Monte Carlo method and the results show high accuracy capability of grating parameters identification. A verification testing is performed. The accuracy dependency on main configuration parameters is evaluated. A method to expand measurement range by double wavelength is also discussed.

General load cells have typically constant sensitivity throughout the measurement range, which is acceptable for common force measurement systems. However, it is not adequate for high-performance control and high-stroke applications such as robotic systems. It is required to have a higher sensitivity in a small force range than that in a large force range. In contrast, for large loading force, it is more important to increase the measurement range than the sensitivity. To cope with these characteristics, the strain curve versus the force measurement should be derived as a logarithmic graph. To implement this nonlinear nature, the proposed load cell is composed of two mechanical components: an activator, which has a curved surface profile to translocate the contact point, and a linear torque measurement unit with a moment lever to measure the loading force. To approximate the logarithmic deformation, the curvature of the activator was designed by an exponential function. Subsequent design parameters were optimized by an evolutionary computation.
