In this paper, a non-contact coordinate measuring machine with laser displacement sensor, which consists of three translational axes, is designed and built independently. In order to obtain the measuring precision, it needs to calibrate the coordinate measuring machine. Learning from the calibration method of contact coordinate measuring machine, a detection method is proposed for calibrating the precision of the non-contact coordinate measuring machine. Based on the homogeneous coordinate transformation theory, the error model of coordinate measuring machine is built under the condition that the positioning errors, angular errors, straightness errors and perpendicularity errors are taken into comprehensive consideration. The final error expressions of three axes can be calculated in the use of error model and homogeneous coordinate transformation theory. The final values of the errors are acquired through the analysis of the error curves, which can be obtained by using the laser interferometer system. The method proposed in this paper is using the two-dimensional ball plate to measure the errors. By locating three different positions of the ball plate in the space and using automatic centering procedure to measure the center position which is previously calibrated, the final errors of three axes can be detected directly. By comparing the two results, it testifies that the two-dimensional ball plate detection method is reasonable. Comparing with the laser interferometer method, the two-dimensional ball plate detection method reduces the workload of adjusting the optical path and the time of measuring errors, which has the vital significance in calibrating the precision of non-contact coordinate measuring machine.

The Primary Rockwell Hardness Standard System was set up in the Center for Measurement Standards since July 1996 till June 1997. During the period, a compact laser interferometer, HP10737R 3-axis interferometer system was used to measure the effect of pitch and yaw of the Rockwell Hardness standard machine. Considering to increase the performance of hardness measurement, the geometry of the diamond tip has to be determined. In this paper, we will present the results of indenter geometry by μ-CMM (Coordinate Measuring Machine) in CMS.

This paper deals with parameter identification for a three-degrees-of-freedom (3-DOF) parallel manipulator, based on measurement redundancy. A redundant passive chain with a displacement sensor connects the moving stage to the machine frame. The passive chain is sequentially placed in three directions at approximately right angles to one another to reliably detect the motion of the stage. Linear encoders measure changes in lengths of the passive chain and the three actuated chains of the manipulator during traveling of the moving stage. Comparison between the measured length and the length calculated from forward kinematics of the 3-DOF manipulator reveals a length error of the passive chain. The least-squares method using a Jacobian matrix corrects 27 kinematic parameters so that the length errors of the passive chain are minimized. The above calculations were accomplished in both numerical simulations and experiments employing a coordinate measuring machine based on the parallel manipulator. Moreover, a length measurement simulation of gauge block measurement and a measurement experiment using the measuring machine were performed to verify the identified parameters.

The Articulated Arm Coordinate Measuring Machine (AACMM) is a new type of non-orthogonal system precision instrument with the advantages of large measuring range, small volume, low weight and portability. To improve the measurement accuracy of AACMMs, an error analysis and calibration method for AACMMs is proposed. The kinematic model of the AACMM was established with D-H model, and then the error model of the AACMM was established on the basis of kinematic model with total differential transforming method and the singular value decomposition of Jacobian matrix and the decomposition of orthogonal matrix elementary row transform. Finally, the error model was validated by position error residual calculation. The error model provides a theoretical foundation for calibration and compensation of the AACMM.

A calibrator for 2D grid plates have been developed. The calibrator was based on a commercial imaging coordinate measuring machine (imaging CMM). A laser interferometer for the calibration of the x-coordinate and two laser interferometers for the calibration of the y-coordinate were attached to the imaging CMM. By applying multistep measurement method for the calibration procedure, the geometrical error in the calibrator was reduced. The calibration of a precision 2D grid plate was demonstrated, and the expanded uncertainty was estimated to be 0.2 μm (k =2).

A new 5-DOF flexible coordinate measuring machine (CMM) is introduced in this paper, which uses REVO system produced by Renishaw. According to the D-H method, the mathematical model is built, and then the error model of the flexible CMM is derived. The parameter calibration based on the nonlinear least square method is analyzed theoretically. Due to the disadvantages of Gauss-Newton method, LM method is researched, which improved the singularity of the coefficient matrix. The calibration analysis is a basis for improving accuracy of the flexible CMM.

First, the forward kinematic model, the inverse kinematic model and the error model of a kind of coordinate measuring machine (CMM) using 3-DOF parallel-link mechanism are established based on the spatial mechanics theory and the total differential method, and the error model is verified by computer simulation. Then, the influence of structural parameter errors on probe position errors is systematically considered. This research provides an essential theoretical basis for increasing the measuring accuracy of the parallel-link coordinate measuring machine. It is of particular importance to develop the prototype of the new measuring equipment.
