Inspection Metrology Measurement - a procedure in which an unknown quantity is compared to a known standard, using an accepted and consistent system of units The means by which inspection by variables is accomplished Metrology – the science of measurement Concerned with seven basic quantities: length, mass, electric current, temperature, luminous intensity, time, and matter From these basic quantities, other physical quantities are derived ©2008 Pearson Education, Inc., Upper Saddle River, NJ.

Characteristics of Measuring Instruments
Accuracy – how closely the measured value agrees with the true value Precision – a measure of the repeatability of the measurement process Rule of 10 – the measuring instrument must be ten time more precise than the specified tolerance Resolution – the smallest variation of the variable that can be detected Speed of response – how long the instrument takes to measure the variable Others: operating range, reliability, cost ©2008 Pearson Education, Inc., Upper Saddle River, NJ.

Analog vs. Digital Instruments
Analog measuring instrument – output signal varies continuously with the variable being measured Output signal can take on any of an infinite number of possible values over its operating range Digital measuring instrument – can assume any of a discrete number of incremental values corresponding to the variable being measured Number of possible output values is finite Advantages: Ease of reading the instrument Ease of interfacing to a computer ©2008 Pearson Education, Inc., Upper Saddle River, NJ.

CMM Operation and Controls – Four Main Categories
Manual drive CMM – human operator physically moves the probe and records x-y-z- data Manual drive and computer-assisted data processing – can perform calculations to assess part features Motor-driven CMM with computer-assisted data processing – uses joystick to actuate electric motors to drive probe Direct computer control (DCC) – operates like a CNC machine tool and requires part program ©2008 Pearson Education, Inc., Upper Saddle River, NJ.

CMM Software The set of programs and procedures used to operate the CMM and its associated equipment Example: part programming software for DCC machines Other software divide into following categories: Core software other than DCC programming Post-inspection software Reverse engineering and application-specific software ©2008 Pearson Education, Inc., Upper Saddle River, NJ.

Core Software Other than DCC Programming
Minimum basic programs for the CMM to function, which applies only to DCC machines Examples: Probe calibration – defines probe parameters so that CMM can automatically compensate for probe dimensions Part coordinate system definition – instead of aligning the part with the CMM axes, axes are aligned to part Geometric feature construction – e.g., hole center Tolerance analysis – compares measurements with part drawing dimensions and tolerance ©2008 Pearson Education, Inc., Upper Saddle River, NJ.

Advantages of using CMMs over Manual Inspection
Reduced inspection cycle time – translates to higher throughput rate Especially with DCC, approximately 90% reduction in certain tasks Flexibility – CMMs are general-purpose machines Reduced operator errors in measurement and setup Greater inherent accuracy and precision Avoidance of multiple setups – in general all measurements of a given part can be made in one setup ©2008 Pearson Education, Inc., Upper Saddle River, NJ.

Inspection Probes on Machine Tools
Mounted on toolholders Stored in the tool drum Handled by the automatic tool-changer the same way cutting tools are handled Inserted into the machine tool spindle by the automatic tool-changer When mounted in the spindle the machine tool is controlled very much like a CMM Sensors in the probe determine when contact is made with part surface so that required data processing is performed to interpret the sensor signal ©2008 Pearson Education, Inc., Upper Saddle River, NJ.

Portable CMMs In the conventional application of a CMM, parts must be removed from the production machine and taken to the inspection department where the CMM is located New coordinate measuring devices allow the inspection procedures to be performed at the site where the parts are made Example: Faro gage, a.k.a. Personal CMM, is a six-jointed articulated arm At the end of the arm is a touch probe to perform coordinate measurements, similar to a CMM ©2008 Pearson Education, Inc., Upper Saddle River, NJ.

Advantages of In-Situ Inspection
Necessity to move parts from the machine tool to the CMM and back is eliminated Material handling is reduced Inspection results are immediately known The machinist who makes the part performs the inspection Because part is still attached to machine tool during inspection, any datum reference locations established during machining are not lost Any further machining uses the same references without the need to refixture the part ©2008 Pearson Education, Inc., Upper Saddle River, NJ.

Surface Measurement Most surface measuring devices use a contacting stylus Therefore, classified as contact inspection Cone-shaped diamond stylus with point radius = mm ( in) and 90 degree tip angle As stylus is traversed across surface, tip also moves vertically to follow the surface topography Movement is converted to electronic signal that can be displayed as either Profile of the surface Average roughness value of the surface ©2008 Pearson Education, Inc., Upper Saddle River, NJ.

Machine Vision Acquisition of image data, followed by the processing and interpretation of these data by computer for some useful application Also called “computer vision” 2-D vs. 3-D vision systems: 2-D – two-dimensional image – adequate for many applications (e.g., inspecting flat surfaces, presence or absence of components) 3-D – three-dimensional image – requires structured light or two cameras ©2008 Pearson Education, Inc., Upper Saddle River, NJ.

Image Acquisition and Digitization
With camera focused on subject, viewing area is divided into a matrix of picture elements (“pixels”) Each pixel takes on a value proportional to the light intensity of that portion of the scene and is converted to its digital equivalent by ADC In a binary system, the light intensity is reduced to either of two values, white or black In a gray-scale system, multiple light intensities can be distinguished Each frame is stored in a frame buffer (computer memory), refreshed 30 times per second ©2008 Pearson Education, Inc., Upper Saddle River, NJ.
