In order to achieve 3D digital measurement of large-scale equipment, based on OpenMVG (Open Multiple View Geometry), a technical framework, which is suitable for industrial photogrammetry, is generated. Firstly, the coded points in the set of images were identified and positioned, the matching relationships between multiple images were built by ID number, and the data interface for OpenMVG was established. Then, by means of OpenMVG solver, the 3D coordinates of the coded points at the normalized scale were solved. The actual scale factor was restored by using multiple scale bars arranged in the scene. Finally, the coordinates of the code points, the transformation matrix between the images and the camera parameters were obtained, which constitute the core parameters of the industrial photogrammetry framework and can meet many applications of industrial photogrammetry. Taking an airplane as a test object, which is in the space of 10m × 3m × 4m, the number of images by photogrammetry capturing is more than 500. The finally measured error with our method is less than 0.085mm. Compared with the current commercial photogrammetry system, the proposed method can achieve the same accuracy level with greater efficiency and expansibility.
The 12th European conference on non-destructive testing was held in Gothenburg, Sweden, in June 2008. The conference brought together non-destructive testing technicians from all over the world to exchange the latest development and application of non-destructive testing technology in different fields. Components in the aerospace field often have the characteristics of complex surface structure and material properties, which makes it difficult for traditional ultrasonic testing methods to effectively evaluate the internal defects. Aiming at the research and application status of ultrasonic nondestructive testing technology in aerospace field, the latest research and development achievements of ultrasonic array, aircoupled ultrasonic and laser ultrasonic et al are introduced. The future development direction and trend of advanced ultrasonic testing technology in aerospace field are discussed. The key technologies and research difficulties of current ultrasonic testing technology are summarized.

Ceramic matrix composite is increasingly wide used because of many advantages such as high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance and high specific strength. However, various defects can be created in the production because of the limitation of raw material and manufacturing process, and those defects can be detected by ultrasonic inspection, CT, infrared thermal imaging, X-ray inspection and so on. Based on the micro-focus CT system, this article investigates the testing method of adjustment sheet parts made of ceramic based composite. It is verified that micro-focus CT system is capable of detecting sub-millimeter holes in the production, and the result of measurement is accuracy. Besides, the micro-focus CT can obtain clear images of defects such as inclusion, crack and wire break-off. Furthermore, this CT system can achieve the calculation of porosity rate in the material.
There are a lot of difficulties in the process of CNC machining for open disk, such as small leading/trailing edge radius, difficult-to-machine materials, short tool life, complex CNC programming, long machining time, hard-tocontrol machining deformation, etc. The blisk grinding technique with CBN grinding wheels presented in this paper aims to solve the above-mentioned problems. To ensure this, firstly, cantilever grinding method and strip-width-maximization grinding method with barrel-shape grinding wheels are employed to realize high accuracy machining of blisk profile, the machining errors of suction/pressure surface are fluctuant in the range of 15~20μm, and the minimum leading/trailing edge radius is near 28.7μm. Secondly, a geometry-based adaptive machining method is suitable for the make up machining of leading/trailing edge, the residual error between machining area and its adjacent area is less than 10μm. Finally, 3-axis cylindrical CNC grinding method and cylindrical coordinate array grinding method are proposed and verified through simulation, which can shorten blisk (its blade length is less than 60 mm) machining time from hundreds of hours to 3 hours or so.
