The invention belongs to the technical field of manufacture and measurement of measuring devices, more particularly relates to a high-precision automatic measurement method of axial size of abrupt-change cross section of a revolving body. The measurement method is based on the principles of adopting a high-precision
linear array CCD
optical imaging technology and a high-precision
motion control technology, performing rapid measurement on a
contour line at longitudinal section of the revolving body to obtain contour data of the revolving body, calculating curvature change of the
contour line of the revolving body, and seeking local extremum points of the curvature change on the
contour line to obtain the axial position of the abrupt-change cross section, thus calculating the axial size of the abrupt-change cross section. The measurement method is suitable for rapid measurement of the axial size of grooves, benches, frustums and the like of various complex revolving body parts, and the method is especially suitable for revolving body parts which are provided with small-space grooves and can not be easily measured by a
contact method.
