Error Analysis and Testing on Shafting Verticality for Horizontal Photoelectric Theodolite

Article Preview

Abstract:

It is vitally important to improve effects of error compensation for horizontal photoelectric theodolite and reduce production costs by executing rational control of verticality error of shafting. This paper analyzes the mechanism how the verticality error of shafting influences measurement precision of photoelectric theodolite considering the architectural characteristics of the frame of horizontal theodolite. Matlab software has been used to simulate pointing accuracy. Verticality error of shafting of horizontal theodolite has been detected. Measured verticality error of shafting is 37 and detection error is 10. Results of analysis and detection to be applied for error compensation can improve pointing accuracy of the theodolite.
