Step S3, rotation offset angle, θ of the chip compared to reference position is calculateda, with the cutting computational methods class of 8 times
Seemingly, OG is ∠ QOP angular bisector, and for the timing separation with above-mentioned cutting 8 times, time of cutting or reflection 6 times is with T "nTable
Show, wherein, n=1,2,3 ... 6;Then deviation angle during chip cutting light 6 times:
When the number of chip cutting light is 6 times, and only occur X, Y-direction skew when, definition now chord length to be square
The angle of central angle corresponding to the chip length of side is θ0, T0For afer rotates θ0Time needed for angle, then
T″kjRepresent kth time and the time interval of jth time cutting, wherein k, j=1,2,3 ... 6, i.e. T "kj=Tj″-T″k。
In the present embodiment, for the third time with the 4th time cutting time interval T34″≥T0, then now chip compared to benchmark position

According to geometrical relationship, have:
θ″1=2 π-ω * (T "6-T″1)
θ″2=ω * (T "3-T″2)
Now, afer rotates are obtained and cut light 6 times within one week, X, the offset x " and y " of Y-direction skew only occurs, such as schemes
Shown in 8, then have
OM1'=x ", ON1'=y ", OO2=OO2', ∠ θa=∠ O2OO2', ∠ θa'=∠ M1′OO2′
Therefore, afer rotates one week, during cutting light 6 times, the offset actually occurred is:
In the present embodiment, only for chip T34″≥T0Situation list embodiment, measured by above-mentioned steps same
Sample can obtain:
x0=x " * cos θa-y″sinθa, y0=x " * sin θsa+y″cosθa,
If T56″≥T0, then chip compared to reference position to right avertence, now,
If T12″≥T0, then chip compared to reference position to left avertence, now,
If T16″≥T0, then chip is inclined upwards compared to reference position, now,
It can be seen from the present embodiment above content, as long as calibration value of the record chip at reference position, that is, determine ω
And Rs, Ti;Re-record the time that sensor signal changes that rotated a circle when chip shifts, you can obtain the reality of chip
Border offset.Obviously, when the anglec of rotation of chip is 0, then equivalent to chip only there occurs X, the skew of Y-direction, further
Ground, if be calculated X, Y-direction offset value also be 0, illustrate that chip does not shift.
It should be noted that the time that chip offset is calculated in above-described embodiment only have selected the part in time set
