Non-contact geometry inspection of workpieces with optically non-cooperative surfaces

摘要

In order to produce optically cooperative surfaces to use triangulation measuring systems, the methods of surface and thin-coating technology are resorted to. Among these number physical methods such as PVD technology, (electro-)chemical treatment as, for example, electrochemical etching and electroless coatings as well as mechanical treatments of the components by means of glass-bead and corundum blasting. The processes mentioned are suitable for producing optically cooperative surfaces since, owing to the corresponding test parameters, a change of the component's surface occurs at the sub-micrometer scale. Currently, no indication in the literature is provided that such processes are employed for manufacturing optically cooperative surfaces vis-a-vis triangulation methods.
