The invention provides a method for measuring a half cavity of a
cell type
radio frequency superconducting cavity, and relates to the technical field of measurement of the half cavity of the
superconducting cavity, the half cavity is installed on a predetermined measurement tool to obtain a to-be-tested piece so as to fix the half cavity, and then the to-be-tested piece is installed on a three-coordinate measurement platform to prepare for detection; the three-dimensional
standard model of the half cavity is inserted in advance during detection, and a coordinate
system of the three-dimensional
standard model is adjusted to establish a standard; then, a coordinate
system is manually and roughly established by using a half-cavity
equator plane and an
equator inner circle of a to-be-tested piece, and the specific position of a half cavity is found; a coordinate
system is automatically and precisely established by using a half-cavity IRIS plane, an IRIS inner circle and an
equator inner circle of a to-be-tested piece, the precisely established coordinate system coincides with a coordinate system of the three-dimensional
standard model, finally, the size and form and location tolerance of the half-cavity of the to-be-tested piece are detected, three coordinates are adopted to carry out
contact type measurement on the basic size and the inner surface profile of the half-cavity, and the measurement accuracy is improved. And the influence of half-cavity
surface reflection and
refraction is avoided, so that the
measurement precision is improved.
