Abstract
White-light scanning interferometry (WSI) is an important tool in the surface topography measurement. The range of white light interference fringes is very narrow, which makes the traditional method of finding fringes extremely timeconsuming and inefficient, affecting the efficiency and automation of the measurement. Aiming at these problems, a composite auto-focus method for on-machine WSI is proposed in this paper. Utilizing the feature of constant relative axial position of cutting tool and measuring system, the position near the interference fringes is quickly located. Then the mountain climbing strategy is adopted to roughly locate the focusing position with the wide spectral light source. Finally, the narrow spectral light source is used to accurately locate the position of zero optical-path difference by finding the coherent envelope peak. The experiments shows that the proposed auto-focus method is effective to find clear fringes in the on-machine interferometry measurement and can achieve a nanoscale accuracy within microns range.
