Application of laser optical displacement sensor to foundry processes control and research
Journal Title: Archiwum Odlewnictwa - Year 2009, Vol 9, Issue 3
Abstract
An experimental set-up elaborated for distance measurement with a use of a laser optical displacement sensor has been described. The features of the elaborated device allow to measure a surface roughness and dimensions of small details. Elaborated computer software allows automatically to estimate the classical surface roughness indices. The surface roughness indices can be estimated also for sloping planes. A solidification surface profile in macro and micro scale can also be measured. The mentioned solidification surface profile is measured on solidified shells obtained by using of so-called remove remainder test. Exemplary measurements of mould and casting surface roughness have been presented.
