Abstract
Line laser measurement technology is effective for obtaining the 3D point clouds of complex surfaces. Thus, a 3D gear measurement model is established in this study. All the point clouds of gear surfaces are rapidly obtained using a line laser sensor, and the holistic deviations of gear surfaces are acquired by calculating the normal errors of the gear surface. These informative and complete data include traditional gear error items and considerable valuable information that is not deconstructed. To exploit the acquired gear holistic deviations, the structured 3D model is constructed to express tooth surface errors. In this model, the control method of the statistical process is used to define highly representative assessment indicators, and a new gear accuracy assessment system is developed by selecting reasonable indicators. The measurement practice shows that this method exploits the complete information of the gear surface, including all the current accuracy assessment indicators, which can be used to expand the new assessment indicators. This method can be used to characterize the 3D topological tooth surface completely and comprehensively and realize the deep mining and extended applications of the 3D full information of gear surfaces.
