More Details: The laser tracker has characteristics of high measurement accuracy and wide measurement range. Laser tracker technology, as an effectively large-scale measuring approach, plays a critical role in dynamic measurement. Currently, the static performance of laser trackers has been well studied. However, the dynamic characteristics of the laser tracker remain unclear in terms of evaluating its dynamic performance. The circular trajectory generator measurement system can quantify the dynamic performance of the laser tracker. We developed a standard circular trajectory generator using a stable servo system and then conducted an in-depth study on the dynamic performance of the laser tracker through statistical analysis. Numerous experiments have shown that if the laser tracker is set at equal spacing, the dynamic indication error is smallest when the measurement distance is 3 m, indicating that the fitted diameter at a distance of 3 m is closest to the diameter of the circular trajectory generator. If the laser tracker is set with equal sampling frequency, the dynamic indication error is smallest when the measurement distance is 5 m. When the circular trajectory generator is at low speed, the measurement spacing of sampling points of the laser tracker is fixed proportional to the number of measurement points, while at low or high speed the sampling frequency of the laser tracker is fixed proportionally to the number of measurement points. These conclusions will facilitate the application of the laser tracker in dynamic measurement.
