Abstract
In the measurement process of the large, complex surface, due to the errors of the installation, the errors of the machine bed itself and other factors, the probe can be over pressed. The situation of measuring interruption can be occurred. In the paper, take the measurement of the spiral bevel gear for example, by using of the gear meshing theory and differential geometry, through a series of coordinate transformations, the coordinates of the tooth surface grid nodes are calculated. Through measuring the tooth surface of the spiral bevel gear by using of Gear Measuring Center(GMC) and 3D scanning probe system, the follow-up control strategy of continuous scanning measurement based on the constant measuring force was proposed. The measurement and evaluation of the tooth surface were achieved through continuous scanning motion along the measurement path planned. In the measurement process, the measurement path was planned according to the theoretical models. The offset values of the probe were real-time detected, the constant deformation of the probe was ensured through controlling the motion of X,Y,Z axes. The mathematical model of the relationship between the velocity of each axis and the deformation vector of the probe was established. The continuous scanning measurement along the path planned based on the constant measuring force can be implemented. The requirement of the steady-state errors and real-time were meted by using of PID control strategy of subsection variable parameters. The method was finally simulated and experimented. The results showed that the occurrence of unexpected interruption in the measuring process can be effectively solved. It plays an important role for the highly-efficient and highly-precise measurements of the tooth surface.
