Abstract

A comparative study between two types of tool wear monitoring systems for milling processes is introduced in this paper. The suggested sensory fusion approach includes the implementation of an infrared camera, in addition to force, vibration, sound and acoustic emission sensors. The majority of the research work available in literature and industry focuses on using one dimensional signals, such as force, vibration. Two dimensional data, such as infrared and visual images, are limited in literature in relation to machining operations. This work compares between one dimensional and two dimensional data for the development of a tool condition monitoring system for milling processes. The paper presents a comparative study between the performance of signal and image processing algorithms using neural networks. Fourier Transformation and Wavelets analysis are used to process one dimensional and Two dimensional data respectively. The results indicate that two dimensional data obtained from infrared images has significant capability in comparison to one dimensional data for the detection of tool wear for the selected image and signal processing algorithms.
