In order to meet the needs of large plane’s flatness error measurement and aim at the time-consuming, laborious, expensive and inefficient problems, a flatness error measurement system of large plane based on laser dots was designed. The measurement system scanned the plane by the distance sensor which was driven by a double degree-of-freedom rotating platform. The Euler angles of distance sensor and the displacement data between the distance sensor and the measured plane were collected by the data acquisition card. Then the measurement system obtained the spatial coordinate values of laser dots through data processing. Eventually, the actual surface was reconstructed and the flatness error was calculated. The measurement results showed that the system could accurately reflect the actual surface and had great significance in promoting the industrial application of large plane’s flatness error detecting device.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
