Problems solved by technology

[0003] As a simple and effective focal length detection method, the knife-edge detection method is widely used in the detection method of focal length control in the processing process. The traditional knife-edge detection method is limited by the subjective factors of the inspectors due to the use of visual methods to judge the focus position. , the accuracy of focal length detection is difficult to guarantee, especially the focal length detection of long focal length optical elements, because the optical path of the detection light is too long, it is easily affected by factors such as uneven ambient temperature and airflow disturbance, even if a digital imaging system is used instead of visual inspection It is also difficult to eliminate the influence of these factors on the accuracy of focal length detection
In addition, in the traditional method, the focus position is determined by the change of the shadow image over time during the light cutting process. This method of determining the focus position is difficult to achieve accurate focus positioning through relevant algorithms after the shadow image is digitized.
