Measuring roughness in hard-to-reach places is a challenge for many manufacturers. Narrow openings prevent the entry of many roughness gauges inside bores, tubes, cylinders, and other tight spaces. And yet, these surface finish measurements are often crucial to acquire, especially on parts where roughness affects part performance.
在难以到达的地方测量粗糙度对许多制造商来说是一个挑战。狭窄的开口可防止许多粗糙度计进入孔、管、圆筒,和其他狭窄空间内。然而,获取这些表面光洁度测量值通常至关重要,特别是在粗糙度影响零件性能的零件上。
To address this challenge, Novacam designs and manufactures
OPTICAL 3D PROFILOMETERTM systems
that measure with small-diameter optical probes.
These fiber-based probes reach inside to measure
roughness (as well as 3D geometry):
为了应对这一挑战,Novacam 设计并制造了使用小直径光学探头进行测量的OPTICAL 3D PROFILOMETER TM系统。这些基于光纤的探头到达内部以测量粗糙度(以及 3D 几何形状):
on inside diameter (ID) surfaces of bores, tubes, and cylinders
在孔、管和圆柱体的内径 (ID) 表面上
on inside surfaces of tightly spaced blades of aerospace turbine disks
在航空航天涡轮盘的紧密间隔叶片的内表面上
on bottoms of blind holes, slots, or narrow channels
在盲孔、槽或狭窄通道的底部
and in other tight spaces where most other roughness gauges simply cannot reach.
以及大多数其他粗糙度仪根本无法到达的其他狭窄空间。

NOVACAM OPTICAL 3D PROFILOMETER system
accesses inside diameters (IDs) as narrow as 1 mm
with its small-diameter side-looking optical probe.
The probe
acquires a linear (axial) profile of the ID wall by scanning the ID surface while a linear motion stage advances it into the hard-to-reach space.
NOVACAM OPTICAL 3D PROFILOMETER 系统使用其小直径侧视光学探头可测量窄至1毫米的内径 (ID)。探头通过扫描内径表面获取内径壁的线性(轴向)轮廓,同时线性运动台将其推进到难以到达的空间。
The probe directs a beam of low-coherence light at the measured surface, collects the light signal reflected back from the surface, and sends this signal back to the system interferometer via an optical fiber. This fiber can be several meters long.
探头将一束低相干光射向被测表面,收集从表面反射回来的光信号,并通过光纤将此信号发送回系统干涉仪。这种纤维可以长达数米。

When equipped with a forward-looking probe, NOVACAM OPTICAL 3D PROFILOMETER systems measure roughness on surfaces that include
bottoms of narrow grooves (channels, slots) or blind bore holes.
These surfaces are notoriously difficult to scan with touch probes, optical systems that rely on triangulation, or with microscopes.
当配备前视探头时,NOVACAM OPTICAL 3D PROFILOMETER 系统可测量包括窄槽(通道、槽)或盲孔底部在内的表面粗糙度。众所周知,这些表面很难用接触式探针、依赖三角测量的光学系统或显微镜进行扫描。
Since the system probes scan in a collinear manner (the outgoing and reflected beam travel along the same axis), they provide much better
measurement coverage of
bottom corners of
high-aspect-ratio features
such as steep-walled grooves.
由于系统探头以共线方式扫描(出射光束和反射光束沿同一轴传播),因此它们可以更好地测量高纵横比特征(例如陡壁凹槽)的底角。
Depending on the probe, standoff distance varies from 0.5 mm to 100 mm for standard probes and can be up to 1 m for non-standard probes.
根据探头的不同,标准探头的间距从0.5毫米到100毫米不等,非标准探头的间距可达1米。

Measurements are acquired in a point-by-point manner at the rate of up to 100,000 3D point measurements per second, easily providing the point density required for calculating 2D roughness parameters such as
average roughness (Ra), maximum valley depth (Rv), maximum peak height (Rp), maximum height (distance from highest peak to lowest valley)(Rt), root mean square roughness (Rq), skewness (Rsk) and kurtosis (Rku).
以每秒高达10万个3D点测量的速率逐点获取测量值,轻松提供计算2D粗糙度参数所需的点密度,例如平均粗糙度 (Ra)、最大谷深 (Rv)、最大峰高 (Rp)、最大高度(从最高峰到最低谷的距离)(Rt)、均方根粗糙度 (Rq)、偏度 (Rsk) 和峰度 (Rku)。
For the finest roughnesses, 2,100 3D point measurements per second is typically the preferred speed.
对于最精细的粗糙度,每秒 2,100 个 3D 点测量通常是首选速度。
