A method is described for determining a relative position of an axis of rotation of a rotary table of a coordinate measuring machine. The rotary table has or forms a reference element that is arranged eccentrically in relation to the axis of rotation. The method includes a measuring step including performing a rotary movement of the rotary table, and producing measuring points that encode a position of the reference element by a sensor of the coordinate measuring machine during the rotary movement. The method includes a determining step including determining the relative position of the axis of rotation of the rotary table based on the measuring points.

A concentricity detection system is adapted to detect a concentricity of an annular component. The concentricity detection system includes a support base having a recess on a top surface, a transparent plate received and positioned in the recess, a vision detection device located above the support base and facing the transparent plate, and a backlight source located below the support base and facing the transparent plate. The annular component is disposed in the recess of the support base and supported on a top surface of the transparent plate. The vision detection device is configured to detect the concentricity of the annular component supported on the transparent plate. A through hole is formed in a bottom portion of the recess and a light from the backlight source passes through the support base via the through hole and the transparent plate to provide backlighting for the annular component.

A method for calculating eccentricity of rotor assembly axis based on radial runout measurement comprises matrix characterization of data and calculation of relative runout value at each point, establishment of a spring equivalent model and calculation of contact force, eccentric direction and magnitude; calculation of relative runout value; establishment of a spring equivalent model to analyze the relationship between force and displacement in each phase of a contact process, and then an uneven contact force at each point is obtained; and determination of eccentricity is to determine the magnitude of eccentricity. Based on the measured radial runout data in production practice, this method realizes the prediction of eccentricity of axis before assembly, improves the coaxiality of rotors after assembly, and has important practical guiding significance for axis prediction as well as assembly phase adjustment and optimization in the assembly process of aero-engine rotor pieces.

A mounting table has a first surface for mounting jigs one by one and a second surface for mounting a ring member. An acquisition unit acquires a gap dimension between the second surface and a facing portion of the mounted jig. A measurement unit measures a lifted distance of the ring member at each of circumferential multiple locations when an upper surface of the ring member is in contact with the facing portion. A thickness calculation unit calculates, for each of the multiple locations, thickness at each of different radial positions of the ring member based on the gap dimension and the lifted distance. A misalignment calculation unit specifies a characteristic position of the ring member for each of the multiple locations based on the calculated thickness and calculate a misalignment amount between a center of a circle passing through the characteristic positions and a center of the first surface.
