Notes:
In automated manufacturing systems such as flexible manufacturing systems (FMSs), one of the most important issues is the detection of tool wear during the cutting process. This paper presents a hybrid learning method to map the relationship between the features of cutting vibration and the tool wear condition. The experimental results show that it can be used effectively to monitor the tool wear in drilling. First, a neural network model with fuzzy logic (FNN), responding to learning algorithms, is presented. It has many advantageous features, compared to a backpropagation neural network, such as less computation. Secondly, the experimental results show that the frequency distribution of vibration changes as the tool wears, so the r.m.s. of the different frequency bands measured indicates the tool wear condition. Finally, FNN is used to describe the relationship between the characteristics of vibration and the tool wear condition. The experimental results demonstrate the feasibility of using vibration signals to monitor the drill wear condition.
