چکیده

Point Laser Triangulation (PLT) probes have significant advantages over traditional touch probes. These advantages include throughput and no contact force, which motivate use of PLT probes on Coordinate Measuring Machines (CMMs). This document addresses the problem of extrinsic calibration. We present a precise technique for calibrating a PLT probe to a CMM. This new method uses known information from a localized polyhedron and measurements taken on the polyhedron by the PLT probe to determine the calibration parameters. With increasing interest in applying PLT probes for point measurements in coordinate metrology, such a calibration method is needed. @S1087-1357~00!01703-2#

Dynamic Performance of Vibrometer Steering System for Dynamic In-Fight Tracking and Measurement

Noncontact dynamic measurements of lightweight flexible aerospace structures in motion present several challenges. Achieving high frequency and high resolution measurements requires multiple registered metrology systems. Many noncontact measurement methods are based on the object staying aligned with the sensor. Yet sometimes the desired loading is a result of the motion interacting with struct...

Optimal Path Planning for Helical Gear Profile Inspection with Point Laser Triangulation Probes

New commercial Point Laser Triangulation (PLT) probes enable Coordinate Measuring Machines (CMMs) to take faster, noncontact, accurate measurements. In this paper, we address how to apply this technology to inspect helical gears. Traditionally, gears are inspected with slow, costly, and dedicated machines. The proposed flexible inspection system with a fast measuring probe can significantly red...
