Aiming at the problems of low efficiency of the traditional method for detecting smooth plug gauges and poor repeat accuracy of measurement parameters, a measuring system for the diameter of a smooth plug gauge based on machine vision technology is designed. This system drives the work-piece to move by two-dimensional work platform and collects image data through CCD, and the diameter parameters of the smooth plug gauge are obtained by processing the image which uses the threshold neighborhood location and segmentation method. In this paper, the mechanical structure and control structure of the measuring system are designed, the measurement principle and calibration method are explained, the relationship between the diaphragm and the threshold value under a fixed light intensity, and the relationship between the light intensity and the threshold value under a fixed diaphragm are studied. Finally, experiments have verified that the measuring system can complete the measurement efficiently, automatically, and with high precision within 20 s, and the repeatability of the measurement does not exceed 1 μm.
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.
