The invention relates to a device and a method for automatically measuring the feature size of an irregular object, and relates to the technical field of
size measurement. The device comprises a shape and size measuring device used for carrying out
point cloud scanning measurement on an object to be measured and obtaining
point cloud data, and further comprises a mechanical arm provided with a vacuum chuck; the conveying belt is arranged below the mechanical arm; and the slide is used for carrying an object to be detected, and the slide is arranged on the
conveyor belt to be conveyed. The method comprises the following steps that 1, a mechanical arm adsorbs a slide carrying an object to be measured through a vacuum chuck so as to send the object to be measured to shape and
size measurement equipment,
point cloud scanning measurement is carried out, and point
cloud data are obtained; 2, the feature sizes of the irregular object are defined as X, Y and Z, and X, Y and Z are the sizes of the fragments in the three orthogonal directions; 3, after the irregular point cloud of the to-be-measured object is obtained through scanning, the point cloud needs to be preprocessed, and point cloud
noise is removed;
