    Laser line triangulation for fast 3D measurements on large gears
    The causes of geometrical deviations from the production process and the prediction of application properties, such as noise behavior, wear, or material fatigue, are only possible by having detailed information about the gear geometry. The gold standard for the gear quality inspection is represented by dimensional measurements with a tactile sensor system. As a result for industrial applications, the slow serial measurement leads to the compromise of a random inspection of the gear geometry. For the purpose of a faster and more extensive surface acquisition, a laser line triangulation sensor is investigated providing 1280 points at a line width of 25 mm with up to 200 lines/s. The results at the tooth of a large cylindrical involute gear with a pitch circle diameter of 922 mm and a face width of 246 mm show the qualification for fast three-dimensional measurements of the convex and reflective surface. The detection of the complete profile line at once is possible. It is shown that the measurement deviation of laser line triangulation can be minimized by increasing the dynamic threshold. The measurement deviations amount to ± 8.2 μm and can be attributed to random and systematic errors. Compared to the standard gear inspection, an acceleration factor of 5700 was attained. An optical scanning of the complete tooth flank provides the prerequisite for an identification of surface defects in the form of breakouts and blemish.

    Geometry Measurement of Submerged Metallic Micro-Parts Using Confocal Fluorescence Microscopy
    The in situ geometry measurement of microstructures in the laser chemical machining (LCM) manufacturing process places high demands on measurement systems because the specimen is submerged in a closed fluid circuit. The steep slopes of the manufactured micro-components and the general lack of accessibility hinder the use of standard techniques such as tactile measurement or conventional confocal microscopy. A technique based on confocal fluorescence microscopy shows promise for increasing the measurability on metallic surfaces with large curvatures. By applying an intensely scattering fluorescent coating to the specimen, the surface position can be determined by the change in fluorescence signal at the boundary between specimen and coating. In contrast to the currently tested thin coatings (<100 μm) the measurements in layers thicker than 1 mm, as required for in situ application at the LCM process, show distinct dependencies on the fluorescent medium in terms of concentration and index of refraction. Hence, a fundamentally different signal evaluation approach based on a physical model of the fluorescence signal is needed to extract the surface position information from the detected fluorescence intensity signal. For the purpose of validation, the measurement of a step geometry is performed under the condition of a thick fluid layer and referenced with a tactile measurement. As a result, the model-based approach is shown to be suitable to detect the geometry parameter step height with an uncertainty of 8.8 μm or a step submerged in a fluid layer with a thickness of 2.3 mm.
