Machined NURBS Surface Description Using On-Machine Probing Data

Article Preview

Abstract:

The error distribution of a machined NURBS surface is complex to describe since the machined surface isnt that easy to obtain. A new method for machined NURBS surface description based on inspection database of on-machine probing is presented. The main idea is to approximate the machined surface using the inspection data and the basis functions of the nominal NURBS surface and to get the error distribution of the surface. A virtual part with a NURBS surface is presented and its error caused by the interaction of the machine-tool-workpiece is obtained using the FEA method at the inspection points. A machined NURBS surface is achieved and the error distribution of the surface is expressed. This method provides a new way in error compensation and it will improve the machining accuracy of a NURBS surface.
