Development of a Laser-Guided Deep-Hole Evaluating Probe: Measurement of Straightness and Roundness

The probe with a 110mm diameter is originated and fabricated to measure hole accuracies of extremely deepholes. It consists of a measuring unit, an actuator unit, an active rotation stopper and a feed unit. The rolling of the probe is restricted and adjusted by the active rotation stopper. The probe is fed by the feed unit. In this measurement, accuracies are measured by using a rolling proof apparatus and machine table of deep hole boring machine instead of the stopper and the feed unit, respectively. Straightness, roundness and a diameter of a 110-mm hole are measured by the probe and testers made for each measuring purpose ...
