Industrial Needs

Requirement for precision measurement becomes extremely advanced as industrial needs advances. CMM (Coordinate Measuring Machine) is one of the most adequate measuring machines to meet the requirement. As the precision of CMM becomes higher, it is important to improve the sensitivity of probe. We developed a contact type probe which consisted of a QPD (quadratic photo diode), a ball lens, and a laser diode to detect the displacement of stylus. The probe system has a resolution of 31nm.

The article makes a contribution to the ever-important topic of evaluating geometric deviations of tolerated forms related to the datum system using coordinate measuring machines with a touch probe system. The datum system consists of the coordinate system and the coordinates planes. An integral part of the article is the quantification of the true position tolerated form related to the datum system and experimental evaluation of the deviation with calculation of measurement uncertainty, according to STN EN ISO 15530-3.

Practical Measurement Strategies for Verification of Freeform Surfaces Using Coordinate Measuring MachinesFreeform surfaces have wider engineering applications. Designers use B-splines, Non-Uniform Rational B-splines, etc. to represent the freeform surfaces in CAD, while the manufacturers employ machines with controllers based on approximating functions or splines. Different errors also creep in during machining operations. Therefore the manufactured freeform surfaces have to be verified for conformance to design specification. Different points on the surface are probed using a coordinate measuring machine and substitute geometry of surface established from the measured points is compared with the design surface. The sampling points are distributed according to different strategies. In the present work, two new strategies of distributing the points on the basis of uniform surface area and dominant points are proposed, considering the geometrical nature of the surfaces. Metrological aspects such as probe contact and margins to be provided along the sides have also been included. The results are discussed in terms of deviation between measured points and substitute surface as well as between design and substitute surfaces, and compared with those obtained with the methods reported in the literature.

Three dimensional laser scanning coordinate measuring machine is suitable for the measurement of 3D printing products, and its measuring range depends on the three coordinate measuring machine. It is the main 3D printing product measuring instrument [1]. In this paper, the principle of laser scanning three coordinate measuring machine is analyzed. The accuracy and reliability of the calibration system for 3D printing products are verified. According to the newly revised JJF 1064 Calibration specification for coordinate measuring machines [3], it is calibrated.

REVO five-axis system, designed for the orthogonal coordinate measuring machines, must be reconfigured for the application in the non-orthogonal coordinate measuring machines. First, in this article, error sources of the system and components of measurement data are analyzed; then, scale values of coordinate measuring machine axes, which are essential to derive the coordinates of measured points in non-orthogonal coordinate measuring machine, are separated out. Besides, the mathematical model of REVO is established based on the quasi-rigid body theory, from which the measurement results can be evaluated by data derived instead of that returned by the system. The effectiveness of both separation of scale values and mathematical model of REVO is proved by experiments and practice. The research of this article is of great significance to the application of REVO five-axis system in the non-orthogonal coordinate measuring machine.

Measurement Practices

The measurement of a part on a coordinate measuring machine may be affected by many factors such as machine frame accuracy, probe configuration, measuring environment, and measurement strategy. In order to understand the effect of some of those factors on measurements performed in industrial-grade machines, a master production workpiece has been chosen and circulated in Brazilian industries for collecting data points of the calibrated workpiece features according to a predefined master measuring protocol. Conclusions could be drawn about the behavior of each machine under varying conditions, measurement divergences from similar machines operating under distinct conditions, the complexity of measurements with CMMs, and the need for good measurement practices in the productive sector.
