Abstract

The paper contains a description of replacing a process of marking-out iron casts with 3D scanning operation and the profits it implies. It presents some of the available scanning methods which is a part of surface metrology. The paper includes a description of scanning operation using structured light method and all information necessary to perform such operation, from the equipment construction up to creation of a report for the CNC machinist.

Highlights

Monitoring of machine part condition is an important research field in reliability analysis of mechanical components [1,2,3]
The introduction of scanner is accompanied by the two primary advantages for company: - shortening of technological times in relation to line-marking
The time savings obtained on the different mold models differ significantly because of drawing time

Summary

Introduction

Monitoring of machine part condition is an important research field in reliability analysis of mechanical components [1,2,3]. Many metrological techniques have been developed to analyse the surface quality, defect analysis and measurement of process temperature [4,5,6]. These techniques can be successful in various practical applications [7]. The defects of parts are very often caused by the inappropriately selected technological input parameters, condition and properties of a machine, as well as the process dynamics [12,13,14]. Many technologies are available making it possible to collect data concerning the shape of an object or to measure whole surfaces necessary to monitor the individual processes of production. The existing measurement systems allow for the determination of the location of the object points in space with the accuracy of micrometers, x-raying and projection of an element inside without the necessity do destroy it, as well as for analysis of stresses and temperature distribution in objects
