  • Patent number: 10962487
    Abstract: A flaw detecting apparatus and a method for a plane mirror based on line scanning and ring band stitching are provided. The flaw detecting apparatus comprises: a line scanning detector, an annular illumination source, a rotary table rotatable about a Z axis, a translation table translatable along an X axis and a processor. By translating and rotating the plane mirror to be detected, an entire surface of the plane mirror to be detected can be detected by the line scanning detector, and the flaw of the entire plane mirror to be detected is obtained by a ring band stitching method. The method of line scanning and ring band stitching reduces the imaging distortion, the intermediate data amount, the difficulty in the distortion correction and difficulty in stitching, and improves the detection speed and the detection quality.

  • Publication number: 20200147753
    Abstract: A method for smoothing a dwell time during a processing to an optical component belongs to the field of processing optical components, and solves a problem of an adverse effect of dwell time jumps on a stability of the machine tool during processing. The method achieves a smoothing treatment to the dwell time by a diffusion transformation to the distribution of the conventionally calculated dwell time using a time diffusion model. After the smoothing treatment to the dwell time, the difference between times at adjacent discrete points is relatively small, thereby achieving a smooth transition between adjacent discrete points, and limiting the effect of the polishing tool on machine stability due to its frequent acceleration and deceleration during processing.
