Abstract

This paper presents a device for visual online measurement used in TUT microfactory for biomedical implants. This device is used in a laser micro lathe for measuring the diameter and shape of the laser micromachined part on-line in order to control the turning process and to achieve the targeted final dimensions and shape. This paper evaluates some key characteristics of the device and the measurement method affecting the attainable measurement accuracy of the device.
