New setup for calibration of vertical angle measuring systems
Santrauka
Precision instrumentation is the key factor in quality assurance in various fields of industry. Precision angle measurements performed by using total stations is a field showing a lot of potential. Horizontal angle measuring system calibration is well documented and researched field however vertical angle measuring system calibration tends to lack proper investigation. This paper deals with the analysis of modern calibration methods of vertical angle measuring systems after which the new arrangement for vertical angle calibration of the total station is presented. The principle of the vertical angle calibration using special equipment is described. The primary results of the research are presented in this paper as well as advantages and weaknesses of this new setup approach are discussed.
