Study of the Applicability of the Method of Optical Triangulation for Evaluation of the Geometric Parameters and Cleanliness of the Surface of Products of Complex Shapes

The results of experimental studies of the applicability of the method of optical laser triangulation for constructing the profile of conical and cylindrical products with a ribbed surface, made by milling, are reflected. An algorithm for constructing a geometric profile of products of complex shape based on a system of triangulation sensors is proposed. The results of experimental approbation of the proposed algorithm on the stand for automated control of the geometry of complex-profile parts using a laser triangulation 2-D scanner are presented. The sensitivity of a laser triangulation 2-D scanner to the roughness parameters during milling the surface of products is evaluated. The accuracy characteristics of the triangulation method for determining the surface roughness parameters for different orientations of laser radiation with respect to the test object are estimated.
