Radius Compensation

Blades are an important part of aviation engine, its manufacturing compliance seriously affect the performance of the engine. Blades tend to be free-form surface modeling, which makes it extremely difficult to measurement. Since no probe radius compensation, high efficiency, non-contact optical measurement methods get more and more attention, but the inspection uncertainty of optical measurement is usually between 30um to 50um .To reduces the optical non-contact measurement uncertainty, this paper presents an Optical-triangulation-based method for measurement of blade sections. There is a data optimization process in the method, and this feature makes the proposed method can obtain better measurement results. At last, some experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of this method.

Obtaining CAD (computer aided design) descriptions of actual parts having complex surfaces is a key part of the process of reverse engineering. This paper is concerned with the estimation of actual surfaces using coordinate measuring machines fitted with a spherically tipped touch probe. In particular, it addresses in detail the problem of probe radius compensation. A general mathematical model, using kriging, is proposed which first generates the initial probe centre surface and then estimates the compensated or part surface. The compensation is achieved using normal vectors to the initial probe centre surface at each measured point to compensate for the probe radius. The method is validated experimentally on known and free-form surfaces.

Free Form Surfaces

To deal with the lack of accurate and efficient inspection methods in complex free-form surfaces, three-dimensional measurement method based on the optical measurement and computer image processing technology was proposed. It adopted laser scanning technology to get point clouds of free-form surface. Used rapid measurement software to inspect precision of point cloud& CAD model. What could be the cause of machining errors was analyzed. 3D deviation inspection of complex surfaces was applied by an artifact. Detected the machining error of an important section, and outputted test report. This research provides a convenient and swift method for the inspection of free-form surface and processing quality control.

This work discusses issues concerning the implementation of scanning of unknown engineering objects containing just simple (i.e. no freeform) surfaces with touch probes on three-axis computer numerical control (CNC) measuring machines in order to reconstruct their shape in a computer aided design (CAD) system. Several ideas are put forward e.g. scanning along vertical slicing planes adaptive point sampling distances in-process ‘proactive’ segmentation of points into curve sections and probe radius compensation in two directions as well as limited remedy of edge scanning ambiguities. Most of the suggested algorithms are implemented as parametric numerical control (NC) programs on an OKUMA machining centre.

Workpiece localization has direct relations with many manufacturing automation applications. In order to gain accurate workpiece measurement by on-machine measurement system or coordinate measuring machines (CMM), the touch trigger probe is widely adopted. In spite of the high repeatability of the touch trigger probe, there are still error sources associated with the probe. In this paper, we will focus on probe radius compensation. We first show the sources of probe radius error. Then, several compensation methods in related papers are reviewed. After that, a new radius compensation method is proposed in this paper. Simulation and experimental results of probe radius compensation by different methods are given. It is shown that our proposed method has the best performance both in terms of compensation accuracy and computational time. The method is also implemented in a computer aided setup (CAS) system.

Radius Compensation

First of all, using the coordinate measuring machines 3D measured points are acquired. These machines are widely used in gear manufacturing industry but each of them handles the compensation problem in different ways. Thus, the aim of this paper is to compensate the measured data points on the tooth surface of bevel gears with the value of probe radius. This paper presents an option to solve the compensation with the value of probe radius and shows the steps, the methodology to implement this idea in practical use. There are used triangular meshes on the measured data points and determined the normal vector of each point detected on the tooth surface of the bevel gears.
