[0002] Optical products, especially infrared instruments, have some components that are irregularly shaped curved structures that are through-hole and have curved outer walls. After being cast into irregular curved castings, their curved surface shapes need to be inspected. The current inspection method is to make a correction inspection tool for the mouth of the casting and use 3D scanning and comparison to inspect the irregular curved surface shape. When using 3D scanning and comparison, further correction is made based on the comparison results, and then scanning and comparison are performed again after correction, which requires repeated scanning. When the number of castings is large, scanning and correction of each casting is too time-consuming, which increases the workload and seriously affects production efficiency.
