The design of typical measurement component which based on the 3-Dimensional Measuring Technology
Abstract: With the development of advanced manufacturing technology, such as the CAD / CAM software processing and rapid prototyping, and the universal and application in the machinery industry of these technologies, a profound technological revolution has taking place in the field of mechanical design and manufacturing, the digital manufacturing methods which based on the 3D digital definition are gradually in place of the traditional 2-dimensional design and analog processing approach. Gradually master the use of 3D CAD / CAM software then used for the digital design and manufacturing is the key to this technological revolution.
Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM) is an inspection and measuring apparatus with a high accuracy, high efficiency and high performances. Since the 1970s,with the widely use of electronic computer on the measuring machine ,which performance and the degree of automation are improve ,and could using in a wider range. CMM mainly only used for aerospace and other high-tech industries, but today, its have been widely used in various fields of modern manufacturing industry .It has becoming fastest-growing one of the modern measuring instruments in machinery manufacturing.
This article is used UG 3-dimensional modeling software to designing the entity which can be measured based on the 3-dimensional measuring technology .Then imported the entity into AutoCAD mapping software, and obtain the parts plans of the entity. Graphics of the surface ,which by the designed entity ,must to proceed CAM simulation processing and obtain NC program through after treatment in computer .Then use CMM to examination the similar existing parts. So we could not only to grasp the UG 3-D Modeling methods and the AutoCAD drawing methods, but also familiar with the CMM 's operating environment.
