This work presents improvements to a patented 3D laser scanning system with a friction-compensated laser positioning mechanism. By employing a dynamic friction model, the system accurately identifies angular positioning errors through a combination of manual and automatic measurements with different control inputs. The study conducts experiments involving multiple friction cycles and SEM micrograph analysis to compare the microscopic irregularities of steel surfaces before and after friction-based positioning. Parameters of the friction system are derived or estimated from processed input-output test data. A nonlinear control is proposed to compensate for friction effects, resulting in improved positioning accuracy. Experimental implementation using an STM32 board demonstrates a remarkable reduction in the uncertainty of 3D coordinates measured by applying friction-compensated laser positioning. The findings highlight the effectiveness of the proposed friction compensation method, making the 3D laser scanning system more precise and reliable for diverse applications.
