Cylindricity Error Measuring and Evaluating for Engine Cylinder Bore in Manufacturing Procedure

Abstract EN

On-line measuring device of cylindricity error is designed based on two-point method error separation technique (EST), which can separate spindle rotation error from measuring error.

According to the principle of measuring device, the mathematical model of the minimum zone method for cylindricity error evaluating is established.

Optimized parameters of objective function decrease to four from six by assuming that c is equal to zero and h is equal to one.

Initial values of optimized parameters are obtained from least square method and final values are acquired by the genetic algorithm.

The ideal axis of cylinder is fitted in MATLAB.

Compared to the error results of the least square method, the minimum circumscribed cylinder method, and the maximum inscribed cylinder method, the error result of the minimum zone method conforms to the theory of error evaluation.

The results indicate that the method can meet the requirement of engine cylinder bore cylindricity error measuring and evaluating.
