Method and device for calibrating robot measuring stations, manipulators and associated optical measuring devices
First Claim
1. A process for calibrating multiaxial measuring robots and a carried optical 3D sensor measuring device, within a said measuring station for vehicle body shells, the process comprising calibration taking place in a measuring cascade comprising:
- calibrating the optical measuring device with the optical measuring device working point;
calibrating the measuring robot with the measuring robot axes; and
subsequently calibrating the assignment of the measuring robot to the workpiece.

Abstract
A method and device is provided for multistage calibration of multiple-axis measuring robots (6) and associated optical measuring devices (10), especially 3D sensors, in a measuring station (1) for workpieces (2), preferably the bodyshells of motor vehicles. Calibration occurs in a measuring cascade comprising at least three calibrating steps, whereby the optical measuring device (10) and the operating point (28) thereof, the manipulator (6) and the axes thereof and the allocation of the manipulator (6) with respect to the workpiece (2) are successively calibrated. The calibration device (47) includes a control and a calibration system (27) for the operating point (28), a calibration body (15) for the axes of the manipulator and a calibration device (12) for the allocation of the manipulator with respect to the workpiece.
