Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the technical field of coordinate measuring machines, and particularly to a remote control calibration device and method for a coordinate measuring machine. Background Art
[0002] Coordinate measuring machines are widely used in fields such as aerospace, instrumentation, and precision manufacturing. Their main function is to measure the geometric dimensions and precision errors of products. To ensure the measurement accuracy of coordinate measuring machines, in addition to electrical debugging and precision compensation work before leaving the factory, it is still necessary to regularly use calibration devices, such as gauge blocks and gauge block supports, to calibrate the accuracy of coordinate measuring machines.
[0003] When calibrating the accuracy of a coordinate measuring machine, it is necessary to adjust the position of the gauge block in multiple directions, such as the horizontal direction, the vertical direction, and the 45° direction in space. This function is mostly achieved through a gauge block support. The existing gauge block support is manually adjusted by an operator, and the adjustment steps are cumbersome, and it is easy to have an angular deviation during the adjustment process. In addition, in some special working environments, such as a radiation environment, the operator cannot enter the site to manually adjust the angle of the gauge block support, making it difficult to calibrate the accuracy of the coordinate measuring machine, and thus it is impossible to judge the stability of the accuracy of the coordinate measuring machine.
