Welding seam measuring method based on micro field depth

Abstract

The invention discloses a welding seam measuring method based on micro field depth, comprising the following steps: placing a camera with optical amplification factor being more than 2 slantwise relative to the local surface of a welding seam, shooting the local surface of the welding seam twice under the condition of different distance between camera and the local surface of the welding seam, extracting clear bands from two shot images, respectively obtaining the coordinate of each object point which corresponds to each image point on the centre lines of two clear bands in a direction perpendicular to the welding seam to obtain two straight line segments in a world coordinate, carrying out plane fitting by using the two straight line segments to obtain the normal vector value of the local surface of the welding seam, and extracting the boundary of the local surface of the welding seam from any one of the clear bands to obtain the width and the center coordinate of the local surface of the welding seam. The welding seam measuring method can be used to stably and reliably measure the center coordinate, the width and the normal vector value of the local surface of the complex micro-fine welding seam, is easy to operate and has high detection precision.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of visual measurement technology and laser welding processing technology, and in particular relates to a welding seam measurement method capable of measuring the seam center coordinates, width and local surface normal vector of complex narrow and fine seams. Background technique [0002] Laser welding has the advantages of high energy density, fast welding speed, small heat-affected zone range, small welding thermal deformation, large depth-to-width ratio of the weld, and easy automatic control. With the successful development of high-power lasers and the development of laser fiber transmission technology Perfect, laser welding technology is gradually widely used in the automotive industry, shipbuilding, aerospace industry and other fields. [0003] In laser welding, the focused spot diameter of the welding laser beam is very small, about 0.3mm, so the laser welding process has extremely high requirements on the assem...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0007] To sum up, there are currently many researches and related products on visual sensors for weld seam measurement, but most of the above-mentioned visual sensors are aimed at argon arc welding of arc welding robots, and the seam width is wider (generally greater than 0.5mm), and the joints are mostly V-shaped

However, laser welding seams are mostly butt joints, and the width of the seam is narrow (for a 2mm thin plate, the width of the seam is required to be less than 0.1mm). However, most of the current visual weld inspection technologies are based on triangu
