Research abstract
SYSTEMS AND PROCESSES ENGINEERING CORPORATION (SPEC) HAS DEVELOPED AN ADVANCED DESIGN FOR LASER BASED, OPTICAL PHASE-LOCK-LOOP (OPLL) CAPABLE OF MEASURING THREE DIMENSIONAL ACCURACIES OF 1 MICRON (O.99994 IN) FROM A STANDOFF DISTANCE OF 1 M (APPROXIMATELY 3 FT). THIS NON-CONTACT, REAL-TIME MEASURING DEVICE, CAPABLE OF MEASURING DURING THE MACHINING PROCESS, WILL ENHANCE PRODUCTIVITY, OPTIMIZE ACCURACY AND PRECISION, AND WILL BE A CRITICAL COMPONENT OF FUTURE AUTOMATED FACTORIES. IN THE PHASE I PROGRAM, SPEC WILL PROVIDE MANUFACTURING MEASUREMENT SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS AND INTEGRATION ANALYSIS, MEASURING SYSTEM DESIGN STUDIES, SYSTEM DEFINITION AND SIMULATION, PROTOTYPE DESIGN, PHASE II PROTOTYPE DEVELOPMENTAL PLAN, AND A FINAL REPORT.
