Abstract

A new sensorised boring tool has been developed to enhance the flexibility and precision of line boring processes. A position sensor and tool tip actuator to control and its controller electronics were integrated into a cutting tool. To take further advantage of this highly sophisticated tool, a process diagnostic method based on cutting force measurement method was developed. An observer implemented in the tool controller estimates the disturbance to the actuator using the tool position sensing information. The estimated disturbance is the same as cutting force applied to the tool tip. The algorithm utilising the cutting force to detect cutting process faults, such as tool tip breakage and misalignment of workpiece has been designed and tested experimentally.
