Abstract

This article discusses the problems related to the use of non-contact 3D scanning techniques and their support by means of replication methods for the analysis of the geometrical changes in deep tool impressions used for the forward extrusion of valve-type elements assigned for motor truck engines. The 3D scanning method, despite its unquestionable advantages, also has certain limitations, such as scanning the inner surfaces of deep cavities. This is caused by the fact that the larger the angle between the reflected laser light and the normal direction to the measured surface, the larger the area covered for the analysis, yet at the same time, the higher the measurement error. The authors performed an analysis of the geometrical loss of the tools as well as the corresponding replication masses, together with a discussion of the results related to minimization of the measuring errors. For the analyzed tool, the maximum angle during direct scanning was 40 degrees, which unfortunately does not enable an analysis of the entire pattern, while for larger angles, it is necessary to make the measurement by indirect scanning, i.e., by replicating the cavity imprint of the tool. Therefore, for a given geometry, the reflection angle should be determined individually.
