An optical technique using laser for non-contact measurement of surface roughness and form accuracy of ground surfaces is presented. It is found that, when a ground surface is illuminated by a beam of laser light, the roughness height and slope distribution has significant influence on the pattern of reflection and it maintains an unique Gaussian distribution relationship with the surface roughness. The principle idea of the optical measurement system is therefore monitor the radiation, and then calibrate it in process against surface roughness by means of necessary digital data processing. On the other hand, measuring the form accuracy of a ground surface is accomplished by using a triangular method, which is based on observing the movement of an image of a spot of light projected onto the surface. The image is focused, through a series of lenses for magnification, on a photodetector array lf line configur- ation. Then the relative movement of image and consequently the form accuracy of the surface can be obtained through appropriate calibration procedures. Experimental test showed that the optical roughness measurement technique suggested in this work is very efficient for most industrial applications being capable of monitoring the roughness heights ranging 0.1 to 0.6 .$\mu$m CLA values. And form accuracy can be measured in process with a resolution of 10 .$\mu$m.

Machining information such as form accuracy and surface roughness is an important factor for manufacturing precise parts. To this regard, OMM (On the Machine Measurement) has been researched for last several decades to alternate CMM (Coordinate Measurement Machine) process. In this research, the OMM system with a laser displacement sensor was developed for measuring form accuracy and surface roughness of the machined workpiece on the machine tool. The surface roughness was estimated comparing the sensory signal with the reference data measured from master specimen. Also, form accuracy was determined from the moving averaged raw data. In addition, the geometric error map constructed beforehand using the geometric errors of the machine tool was used to compensate the obtained form accuracy. The overall performance was compared with CMM result, and verified the feasibility of the measurement system.

In this paper, an average surface roughness, $R_a$, was measured by optical measurement and its mathematical model according to spindle speed and feedrate was obtained by least square method. Also, its result is compared and investigated with real measured average surface roughness. The optical measurement of surface roughness is performed by CLSM(confocal laser scanning microscope) and the captured HEI(height encoded image) data is used as an original data for the generation of average surface roughness and its mathematical plane or contour surface of surface roughness. Using this polynomial model with two independent variables, the behavior of an average surface roughness is investigated and analyzed with an experimental modeling of least square algorithm. And it can be used for the prediction of $R_a$ in different condition of machining.

This paper proposed a simple method for measuring surface roughness of ground surface. utilizing non-contact in-process measuring system using the diode laser. The measurement system is consisted of a laser unit with a diode laser and a cylindrical lens a detecting unit with polygon mirror and CCD array sensor. and a signal processing unit with a computer and device. During operation, this measuring system can provide information on surface roughness in the measuring distance with a single sampling and simultanilusly monitor the state of the grind wheel. The experimental results, showed that the increase of the feed rate and the dressing speed an caused increase in the surface roughness and when the surface roughness is 4Rmax-10Rmax, the cutting speed is 1653m/min-1665m/min. the feed rate is 0.2m/min-0.9m/min, the dressing speed is 0.2mm/rev-0.4mm/rev, the stylus method and the in-process method can be obtained the same results. thus under limited working conditions. using the proposed system. the surface roughness of the ground surface during cylindrical grinding can be obtained through the in-process measurement method using the diode laser.

The measurement of surface roughness and waviness by means of noncontact method is an important area to be developed for GAC(Geometrical Adaptive Control) system. This paper deal with the design of noncontact in-process measurement system which measures the surface roughness and waviness during cylindrical grinding. This measuring system is simple and the apparatus proposed is composed of a laser unit, photodetector and optical system. During operation, the surface of a workpiece is continuously scanned by a laser beam. This method makes it possible to detect the surface roughness and waviness along the feed direction by control the spot diameter of laser beam. The experimental results show that the presence of chattering, loading and glazing can be detected sensitively along the feed directions.

Measurement of surface roughness has been done by two dimensional method until now. In recent, three dimensuional method is introduced for the precise measurement of surface roughness. But the study about stylus type three dimensional measurement method is a little. Therefore, in this study, arbitrary machined surface is selected and same part is measured by two dimensional and three dimensional method. The result is that the ratio of tow dimensional to three dimensional value is 0.9-1.1 in Ra. But two dimensional measurement method is underestimated because the ratio is 0.5-0.9 in Rz, Rmax. And it is suitable that the number of measuring line is 100 and y pitch is 5 um by three dimensional surface roughness measuring method.

The practicability of Ion-Sputter machining renders it possible to make diamond stylus for surface roughness measurement with micro stylus tip radius less than 2${\mu}mR$, and to measure surface roughness of fine-machined surface. In this study, we researched the wear or Ion-Sputtered stylus with 0.1${\mu}mR$ and 0.5${\mu}mR$ for micro-figure measurement and polished stylus with 0.5${\mu}mR$ according to measurement distance. As a result, we know that the case of Ion-Sputtered stylus is worn down easilier the case of polished stylus. And we know that in the evaluation of stylus wear, it is more useful method that examine the wear by measuring the variation of stylus tip radius than by evaluating the variation of Ra values.
