Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of aero-engine processing, and in particular relates to a fixture and a measuring method for measuring a blade with a hole on a mounting plate. Background Art
[0002] The blades of aircraft engines and gas turbines are mostly processed by one or a combination of methods such as precision forging, precision casting, precision electrolysis, rolling or CNC machining to obtain a blade body profile with no or small allowance. With the increasing requirements for the processing accuracy of blades, and the complex spatial curved surface structure of the blade profile, the measurement of the size and position accuracy after processing often requires contact measurement methods (such as three-dimensional coordinate measuring machines) for detection. Before three-dimensional measurement, the measurement coordinate system needs to be calibrated with standard parts to ensure the stability and accuracy of the measurement.
[0003] For contact measurement methods, during the measurement process, it is often necessary to manufacture standard parts for adjusting and calibrating the theoretical position or coordinate system of the measuring equipment. Therefore, the accuracy of blade standard parts is much higher than that of batch processed blades. Such standard parts have a long production cycle, are difficult to manufacture, and have high manufacturing costs.
