Abstract
The initial contact of a rotating milling tool to a workpiece is detected in the presence of spurious noise spikes by digitally processing samples of a preprocessed vibration signal concurrently through basic tool touch detection logic and milling tool touch detection enhancement logic, and generating a touch indication if either logic set is satisfied. The basic logic detects a continuously increasing signal level higher than a threshold set above background noise. The milling logic detects an above-threshold signal sample and sets up an acceptance window about the expected time of contact of the next cutter. Tool touch is declared when an above-threshold signal occurs during the window; the milling logic is reset by a noise spike in the interval before the window starts. The basic logic detects tool touch in a dense spiky noise situation.
