Determination of the coefficient of expansion of a carbon tube and its assembly for thermal compensation of metrological structures

Résumé

Composite materials are increasingly used in 3D metrology devices. Their use is justified by their interesting mechanical properties including their low density and good rigidity but especially their low coefficient of thermal expansion. In fact, in order to improve production efficiency, companies nowadays integrate more and more control equipment directly in situ. These are then subject to thermal variations. The use of composite materials is an interesting approach. However, in some cases, the lack of knowledge of their coefficient of thermal expansion and their behavior might increase measurement uncertainties. The objective is to study the thermal behavior of a carbon tube alone and the same tube with aluminium fixing elements at its extremities, in order to determine the coefficients of expansion of the carbon alone and to quantify the influence of the fixation with aluminium elements. This experiment makes it possible to directly compensate the dimensional variations of the metrological structure depending on the temperature variations and thus to limit measurement uncertainties. The thermal expansion coefficients of the carbon tube and its assembly are determined by measuring relative variations in height with a ZERODUR® reference bar. The whole is positioned in a climatic chamber.
