The three-dimensional (3D) size and morphology of high-temperature metal components need to be measured in real time during manufacturing processes, such as forging and rolling. Since the surface temperature of a metal component is very high during the forming and manufacturing process, manually measuring the size of a metal component at a close distance is difficult; hence, a non-contact measurement technology is required to complete the measurement. Recently, machine vision technology has been developed, which is a non-contact measurement technology that only needs to capture multiple images of a measured object to obtain the 3D size and morphology information, and this technology can be used in some extreme conditions. Machine vision technology has been widely used in industrial, agricultural, military and other fields, especially fields involving various high-temperature metal components. This paper provides a comprehensive review of the application of machine vision technology in measuring the 3D size and morphology of high-temperature metal components. Furthermore, according to the principle and method of measuring equipment structures, this review highlights two aspects in detail: laser scanning measurement and multi-view stereo vision technology. Special attention is paid to each method through comparisons and analyses to provide essential technical references for subsequent researchers.

Non-contact measurement technology based on triangulation with cameras is extensively applied to the development of computer vision. However, the accuracy of the technology is generally not satisfactory enough. The application of telecentric lenses can significantly improve the accuracy, but the view of telecentric lenses is limited due to their structure. To address these challenges, a telecentric surface reconstruction system is designed for surface detection, which consists of a single camera with a telecentric lens, line laser generator and one-dimensional displacement platform. The designed system can reconstruct the surface with high accuracy. The measured region is expanded with the used of the displacement platform. To achieve high-accuracy surface reconstruction, we propose a method based on a checkerboard to calibrate the designed system, including line laser plane and motor direction of the displacement platform. Based on the calibrated system, the object under the line laser is measured, and the results of lines are assembled to make the final surface reconstruction. The results show that the designed system can reconstruct a region of 20×40 mm2, up to the accuracy of micron order.

With the continuous progress of computer and laser measurement technology, non-contact measurement based on laser scanning technology has been more and more applied in the industrial production process. Since the 1990s, 3D laser scanning technology used as a new technology has been developed rapidly. The 3D laser scanning technology, also known as High Definition Surveying (HDS), was based on the principle of laser ranging. The technology on the surface of a measured object can record some features of large dense points, including 3d coordinates, reflectance and texture information, so as to rapidly reconstruct 3D models of a measured target and various map data such as the line, the surface and the body. Meanwhile, it is a revolutionary leap that the technology improves the traditional single point measurement to the surface measurement, and realizes the digital reconstruction of the objects. Especially, for some conditions such as contact measurement and complex component detection that cannot be measured, 3D laser scanning technology has a natural advantage in the field of industrial design and measurement .
