Workpieces like a shaft or hole make contact on their functional boundaries and its circularity is obtained based on the functional boundaries by enveloping features. Data for evaluating roundness error can be obtained from coordinate measuring machines. A technique for roundness error based on the curvature has been proposed to deal with coordinate measurement data. The computational geometric concepts of convex hulls are used to reduce the computation. The method developed is implemented and validated with the data available in the literature. 相似文献

Form deviations of cylindrical features present in the manufactured parts are measured using coordinate measuring machine (CMM) and expressed as circularity or cylindricity errors evaluated using appropriate reference features. In the present work, computational geometric techniques are used to establish a circle as reference feature, and a heuristic algorithm is proposed to get a unique convex inner hull. Using the concept of equi-distant lines and diagrams, minimum circumscribed (MC), maximum inscribed (MI), and minimum zone (MZ) circles are established. For the first time, algorithms purely based on computational geometric concepts have been developed in the present work to arrive at MC, MI, and MZ circular cylinders. As the algorithms and the implementation details are explained with simple data sets, the practitioners can easily understand these methods and implement them in CMMs for the evaluation of circularity and cylindricity errors. The algorithms are also tested on larger datasets, and in all cases, accurate results are obtained in less than a second. 相似文献

Automotive industry is one of the most prospective manufacturing industries in the present world. In order to keep up with
the challenges of competitors, the automobile industries are taking necessary steps to satisfy the customers by supplying
products of good quality at lower cost. The machine vision inspection systems play an important role in quality control with
their accurate dimensional measurement capability. The data obtained from these systems have to be analyzed using appropriate
algorithms. In the present work, algorithms based on computational geometric techniques have been developed, to set up the
coordinate system for the data obtained from the laser vision system for subframe and lower arm assembly of automobile front
chassis module. The concept of a convex hull and a modified Voronoi diagram are utilized for establishing the coordinate system
for measurement data. The design coordinate system is determined using the Voronoi diagrams. The measurement and design coordinate
systems are mapped using 3D transformations. The results obtained for the sample data are also presented in this paper. 相似文献

The objective of this study is to improve the efficiency in achieving accurate and speedy inspection when coordinate measuring machine (CMM) is used to measure geometric tolerance. The grey prediction in grey theory was applied in developing the algorithm for predicting the number of measuring points required for measuring geometric tolerance in this article. The said algorithm was used to plan the number of measuring points of the next workpiece and to predict the geometric tolerance dimension of the next workpiece. This step provided better foundation for on line inspection to determine the number of measuring points required for measurement inspection of the next workpiece. Besides, it can predict whether the geometric tolerance of the next workpiece conform with the geometric tolerance dimension marked on the design drawing. This algorithm is used to determine whether the manufacturing process requires modification, in an attempt to save human and material resources and improve failure rate.In this paper, the said algorithm refers to the flatness measurement point algorithm in a plane of the workpiece. In planning for the increase of measuring points, this algorithm is bound by the principle of keeping the measurement scope a rectangular shape by adding a row of measuring points. When the prediction value exceeds the designation dimensions range, immediate inspection of the manufacturing process is needed. The concept of on line inspection of the addition of measuring points is also incorporated together with the grey prediction model and concept of standard deviation model in an effort to develop the said algorithm.Experimental data were also introduced to verify the flatness geometric tolerance measuring points algorithm for the flatness geometric tolerance in a workpiece plane. The objective is to reach a balance between the smallest number of measuring points possible required for inspection and inspection accuracy. Consequently, one can avoid using too many measuring points, which increases the inspection time, while achieving the required measurement accuracy. 相似文献

Free-form non-rigid parts form the essence of today’s automotive and aerospace industries. These parts have different shapes in free state due to their dimensional and geometric variations, gravity and residual strains. For the geometric inspection of such compliant parts, special inspection fixtures are used in combination with coordinate measuring systems (CMM) and/or optical data acquisition devices (scanners). In our previous work, a general procedure was developed to eliminate the use of inspection fixtures. We measured the similarities between CAD model and scanned data by taking the advantage of the geodesic distance metric. Then, using finite element non-rigid registration, we deformed the CAD model into range data to find the geometric deviations. Here, we apply a new method to robustify the generalized numerical inspection fixture. We filter out points causing incoherent geodesic distances and demonstrate that our approach has several significant advantages, one being the ability to handle parts with missing range data. The other advantage of the method presented is its capacity to inspect parts with large deformations. 相似文献

The form errors of three-dimensional surfaces have an effect on the proper functioning of an assembly. Methods for evaluating form errors of surfaces of spherical and cylindrical components are available. However, in most machines and instruments the functional components are axisymmetric, e.g. spindles, and have varying geometry in the form of steps, tapers etc. Evaluation of the form errors at different zones on the component as well as a form error characteristic of the whole component is required in such cases. To do this coordinate data or circularity traces are obtained at different horizontal sections using a coordinate measuring machine or a roundness measuring instrument respectively and the required form error is then evaluated. Different algorithms developed for fitting the axis of the component which is the first step in the evaluation of form errors are described. The method of normal least-squares fitting was found to be superior to the general least-squares method. 相似文献

Freeform surfaces have become an integral part of the automobile and aerospace industries. The parts with a very thin wall in proportion to their size are referred to as nonrigid (or flexible) parts. Generally, for the geometric inspection of such flexible parts, special inspection fixtures, in combination with coordinate measuring systems (CMM), are used because these parts may have different shapes in a free state from the design model due to dimensional and geometric variations, gravity loads and residual strains. A general procedure to eliminate the use of inspection fixtures will be developed. Presented methodology is based on the fact that the interpoint geodesic distance between any two points of a shape remains unchangeable during isometric deformation. This study elaborates on the theory and general methods for the metrology of nonrigid parts. We will merge existing technologies in metric and computational geometry, statistics, and finite element method to develop a general approach to the geometrical inspection of nonrigid parts. 相似文献

Geometrical fitting is useful in different fields of science and technology, in particular least squares minimum (LSM) methods are widespread in contact probing for coordinate measuring machines, as well as a reference shape for surface metrology. We present a new intuitive and simple LSM algorithm for circle fitting, the polarity transformation regression. It is a non-linear algebraic method from a generic geometric transformation. We derive the explicit expression of the model estimators from the data points. Then, the algorithm is compared with other methods based on simulation and some literature data sets. The proposed algorithm presents a comparable accuracy, low computational effort and good behavior with outliers based on the initial test, outperforming other well-known algebraic methods in some of the studied data sets. The basis of the algorithm is finally suggested for other potential uses. 相似文献

The objective of this study is to improve the efficiency of achieving accurate and speedy inspection when a coordinate measuring
machine (CMM) is used to measure circularity geometric tolerance. Grey prediction using grey theory was applied in developing
the heuristic algorithm for predicting the number of measuring points required for measuring circularity geometric tolerance.
The heuristic algorithm was used to plan the number of measuring points of the next workpiece and to predict the circularity
geometric tolerance dimensions. This step provides a better foundation for on-line inspection to determine the number of measuring
points required for measurement inspection of the next workpiece. It can also predict whether the circularity geometric tolerance
of the next workpiece will conform with the circularity geometric tolerance dimension on the design drawing. This heuristic
algorithm could also be used to determine whether the manufacturing process requires modification, in order to save human
and material resources and reduce failure rate. In this paper, a circularity heuristic algorithm for deciding the number of
measuring points for the circularity geometric dimension is proposed to reduce the angle between measuring points. In this
heuristic algorithm, the addition of measuring points is determined by whether the predicted circularity value exceeded the
scope of the grey interval. When more points are to be inspected, equiangular inspection is again performed. Once the predicted
circularity value exceeds the limitation of the design drawing circularity geometric dimensions, the manufacturing process
is examined immediately. The concept of adding measuring points for on-line inspection is combined with the grey prediction
and the standard deviation concept to establish the circularity heuristic algorithm for deciding the number of the measuring
points. Experimental data are also introduced to verify the measuring point algorithm for the circularity geometric dimension
of a workpiece. The objective is to reach a balance between the smallest number of measuring points required for inspection
and inspection accuracy. Consequently, it is possible to avoid using too many measuring points, which increases the inspection
time, while achieving the required measurement accuracy. using too many measuring points, which increases the inspection

In any manufacturing process, the manufactured parts always show some kind of variation in their geometric characteristics (e.g. form, size, orientation, and position). To achieve the desired part quality, these geometric characteristics need to be maintained within predetermined design limits as defined by tolerances. After a part is manufactured, it is then inspected to tolerance specifications. In industries, coordinate measuring machines (CMMs) and vision systems are widely used to accomplish the verification tasks. Owing to the lack of proper definitions and implementational details of the correct assessment criteria for different geometric characteristics, it is difficult to develop appropriate algorithms for the inspection software of the CMMs. Though the standards have used the concepts of the tolerance zones (TZs) [1] and minimum zones (MZs) [2] for other geometric (e.g. form, location, etc.) characteristics, the incompleteness in their definitions creates ambiguities in implementing the inspection procedures. It is necessary to develop rigorous definitions of the geometric characteristics (of manufactured parts) that are to be established from discrete, manufactured data points in terms of either TZs or MZs. It is also important to establish the required mathematical criteria for assessing those geometrical characteristics of the manufactured features. In this paper the concepts of TZ and MZ have been thoroughly investigated for establishing practical methodologies for part inspection. 相似文献

Laser scanning equipment and coordinate measuring machines are used to sample points from manufactured surfaces for inspection
purposes. The sampled points are then used to evaluate the geometric deviations associated with the surface. The evaluation
of geometric deviations involves an optimisation step which fits a substitute surface to the measured points, while minimising
the error between the substitute surface and the measured points. The geometric deviation is equal to the difference between
the maximum and the minimum normal distances between the fitted surface and the measured surface points. The choice of the
objective function used in fitting the substitute surface affects the accuracy by which the geometric deviations are estimated.
This paper presents a procedure for determining the best fitting function. It considers the trade-off between the accuracy
of the estimation and the susceptibility to measurements and sampling errors. The proposed procedure has been verified for
a number of geometric deviation types. Those results show that adopting a generic form for the fitting objective function
may lead to large estimation errors with some geometric deviations, and that the proposed procedure reduces these errors significantly. 相似文献

The present article describes a method for enhanced accuracy in machining components produced on CNC wire-cut electrical discharge machines. In this method, machining programs are generated on the basis of nominal geometric models of the produced objects, developed in CAD/CAM systems. After the initial machining, coordinate measurements are performed. On the basis of these measurement results, the values and distribution of the machining deviations are determined. The obtained information is then used to modify the nominal geometric models of the produced objects and to correct the machining programs. After that, the machining process and measurements are repeated. The method described in the present article was verified using the example of a curvilinear profile, produced with the use of a wire-cut electrical discharge machine. 相似文献
