Abstract

Integrated use of the neural and fuzzy techniques in cutting tool monitoring is illustrated in the paper. The results are compared with ANN and previous neuro-fuzzy (NF) approaches. The paper shows that the NF technique can comply with the fundamental requirements of intelligent manufacturing, i.e. real-time nature, uncertainty handling and learning abilities, with the additional benefits of managing both symbolic and numeric information, hybrid learning, and a kind of explanation facility. Finally, the integration of such a hybrid system in an intelligent manufacturing environment is investigated.
