IN-PLACE NON-CONTACT DETECTION METHOD FOR SHAFT WORKPIECE

The present invention discloses an in-place non-contact detection method for a shaft workpiece. The method includes: establishing a detection system, calibrating the detection system and establishing a detection coordinate system; analyzing a pose of a workpiece in the detection system to establish a coordinate system of a workpiece clamping device; controlling the workpiece clamping device of a shaft workpiece processing machine tool to rotate, continuously acquiring data by a linear laser measuring instrument, and calculating and analyzing the acquired data to obtain an ideal reference axis of the shaft workpiece; continuously acquiring data of a detection part, and calculating and analyzing the acquired data to obtain actual machining precision of runout of a shaft neck of a camshaft; and continuously acquiring data of the detection part, and calculating and analyzing the acquired data to obtain machining precision of coaxiality of the shaft workpiece.

Morphic manufacturing

A manufacturing control system for an additive, subtractive, or hybrid machining system implements a morphic manufacturing approach that integrates in situ inspection and related decision-making into the manufacturing process. After execution of a machining or deposition operation, the system performs a sensor scan to collect sensor measurement data for the resulting part while the part remains in the manufacturing work cell. The measurement data is compared with an as-designed digital model of the part to determine whether further machining or deposition is necessary to bring the finished part into tolerance with the model. If necessary, the system performs another additive and/or subtractive manufacturing operation on the part based on analysis of the measurement data to bring the part into tolerance. The measured inspection data can be stored in association with each manufactured part for auditing purposes or for creation of part-specific digital twins.

A manufacturing control system for an additive, subtractive, or hybrid machining system implements in situ part inspection to collect as-built metrology data for a manufactured part while the part remains in the work envelop, and uses the resulting measured inspection data to generate an as-built digital twin that accurately models the finished part. After execution of a subtractive and/or additive tooling operation, the system performs a sensor scan to collect three-dimensional imaging measurement data for the resulting manufactured part while the part remains in the work cell. The measurement data is then integrated with as-designed part metadata for the idealized part to yield the as-built digital twin. Since metrology measurements are integrated into the manufacturing process, customized as-built digital twins can be generated for each manufactured part without requiring manual inspections to be performed on each part.
