Abstract Scope |
In this paper we will discuss our work in developing real time sensing of the glass shaping process. A real time control system allows the data to be temporally and spatially registered to the laser power and the tool position and velocity. An Optris PI 640e infrared camera senses the temperature distribution of the workzone to ensure its formability. A FLIR Blackfly S USB3 camera records images of the glass shaping process and tracks the tool position. This information provides the true plunge depth. An Everest K2 chromatic confocal sensor measures the resulting part morphology intermittently during the shaping process. An ATO three-axis force sensor with a 5 kg capability is also integrated into the control system. This data will be used to determine the correlation between material displacement and forming forces. We conducted a series of experiments to model the shaping process. |
