High-quality and rapid manufacturing of high-end equipment represents a core indicator of national competitiveness. The advancement of digital collaborative manufacturing urgently requires high-precision; multi task; and multi-parameter measurement and positioning technologies with unified large-scale benchmarks. In response to the demand for full-space; full-process; and multi-factor information acquisition in the manufacturing of ultra-large-scale equipment such as advanced ships and aerospace vehicles; Tianjin University has innovatively introduced the GPS concept into industrial precision metrology. The research team proposed a spatial measurement and positioning method that constructs an integrated measurement field through multiple types of distributed measurement stations; achieving unified spatial-temporal benchmarks and resolving the challenge of cumulative errors in large-scale measurements. The project has made breakthroughs in key technologies such as networked multi-task measurement; global accuracy control; and dynamic error fusion compensation; and has developed a complete set of high-performance metrological instruments. These achievements support major projects including advanced shipbuilding; aircraft manufacturing; and spacecraft ground simulation testing; providing a novel metrology approach for upgrading high-end equipment manufacturing technologies.
