Abstract
A method of inspecting a workpiece for a processing machine includes the steps of placing a workpiece on a worktable, moving a spindle located above the worktable to allow a laser sensor mounted with the spindle to be close to the workpiece, measuring a distance between the laser sensor and the workpiece by a laser beam emitted from the laser sensor on the work piece, and gathering data of the workpiece, such as size, shape or location, by moving the spindle to enable the laser beam to pass through the periphery of the workpiece.
Claims8
A method of inspecting a workpiece for a processing machine, comprising the steps of:
- a) positioning a workpiece on a worktable;
- b) moving a spindle located above the worktable to enable a laser sensor mounted with the spindle to approach the workpiece;
- c) turning on the laser sensor to generate a laser beam towards the workpiece and receive a return laser beam from the workpiece for inspecting a distance between the laser sensor and the workpiece;
- and
- d) moving the spindle to enable the laser beam emitted from the laser sensor to pass through a periphery of the workpiece for inspecting the workpiece.
