The operation principle of the invention is as follows:
example 2
When the surface of the aircraft skin to be finished is relatively flat, the laser is irradiated from a fixed position, and the configuration of the laser system is not complicated. However, most surfaces of real airplanes are complex curved surfaces, some parts even have complex three-dimensional structures, and in order to keep a certain laser flux and scanning speed in the laser paint removal process, some additional devices, such as a laser profiler system including a laser line and a camera, need to be introduced, the system can be coupled to a linear positioning system of a laser, and a 3D model of a surface to be processed can be obtained in situ while simplifying experimental assembly. The laser processing method of the three-dimensional surface (free-form surface) based on the laser profiler comprises the following specific steps: (a) vertically moving an XYZ worktable to enable laser lines to scan the surface to be processed line by line, and in the process, acquiring 3D shape data of the surface to be processed by using a laser profiler embedded in a laser system; (b) processing the captured image to obtain (pH, pV) pixel coordinates corresponding to each point on the surface to be processed, thereby generating a 3D model of the surface to be processed from the data point cloud, (c) programming the laser processing trajectory directly on the 3D model (instead of programming on a 2D projection), which can ensure the constancy of laser flux and scanning speed over the entire 3D surface during laser processing; (d) laser paint removal is performed. The three-dimensional laser track not only comprises the modulation of the 3D sample profile on the focusing distance, but also comprises the constancy of the scanning speed along the laser scanning track direction and is independent of the surface fluctuation, thereby realizing the uniformity of the surface to be processed during laser processing. However, with this configuration it is not possible to keep the angle of incidence of the laser beam constant, which can be problematic when processing surfaces with relatively sharp 3D topography.
The foregoing shows and describes the general principles and broad features of the present invention and advantages thereof. While the invention has been described with respect to the above embodiments, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that the invention is not limited to the above embodiments, which are described in the specification and illustrated only to illustrate the principles of the invention, but that various changes and modifications may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
