Traditional topography measurements for rough objects are usually based on point-contact scan. The way of point-contact scan is usually not a high-efficient way to obtain data. Hence, in practice, only a few traces are measured which result in limited data. In order to obtain topography of sufficient amount of data, the demand for rapid noncontact measurement is increasing. In this work, we propose a dual wavelength digital holography (DWDH) measurement system with a synthetic wavelength of 51µm. We apply the DWDH system for 3D measurement of rougher surfaces and objects with a complex and small-size structure to further explore the measurement capability of DWDH. The proposed system enables the possibility to obtain the entire topography with millions of points of a rough surface in a single noncontact measurement. Firstly, we measure a cylinder workpiece of 10mm radius with a large roughness of Ra = 2.6µm which causes severe noise to measurement. The measured radius is 9.8099mm, which indicates a good accuracy. The mean standard deviation of all measured points is 1.08µm, which indicates a good repeatability and good anti-noise capability of the DWDH system. Then the proposed system is applied to measure the tooth surface of a gear of 1mm module and 18 teeth which has a complex and small-size structure. The measured surface shape agrees with the ideal gear tooth surface shape well. And the mean standard deviation of all measured points is 0.94µm, which also verifies its good repeatability. Our work presents the possibility of broader DWDH applications in industrial topography measurements.
Dual-wavelength digital holography (DH) extends the depth range of measurement, but it faces an issue that it can’t
focus the whole extended depth range. In single-wavelength DH, the depth of focus of a correct reconstruction distance is
usually sufficient to cover the whole depth range. Therefore, in single-wavelength DH, autofocusing algorithms which can
obtain a correct reconstruction distance have been proposed and can solve the issue of focusing the whole depth range. But
in dual-wavelength DH and even multi-wavelength DH, the extended depth range of the measurement often spans multiple
depths of the focus of the optical system, which means that the depth of focus of a single reconstruction distance is not
capable to cover the whole extended depth range, making part of depth out of focus. Therefore, in dual-wavelength DH,
only autofocusing is not enough but extended focusing is demanded. However, we lack extended focusing approaches in
dual-wavelength DH. Therefore, we propose an extended focusing approach based on correlation coefficient (CC) to focus
the whole extended depth range in dual-wavelength DH. The proposed approach includes three steps: (1) dividing the
extended depth range by the depth of focus of the system; (2) using the CC-based autofocusing approach to find the correct
reconstruction distance of each divided region and reconstructing this region; (3) concatenating reconstructed image of
each region and constituting the whole-depth-focused image. Through simulation experiments and practical experiments,
the effectiveness and necessity of the proposed approach are verified.
