Abstract
A new approach using a neural network to process the features of the cutting force signal for the recognition of tool breakage in face milling is proposed. The cutting force signal is first compressed by averaging the cutting force signal per tooth. Then, the average cutting force signal is passed through a median filter to extract the features of the cutting force signal due to tool breakage. With the back propagation training process, the neural network memorizes the feature difference of the cutting force signal between with and without tool breakage. As a result, the neural network can be used to classify the cutting force signal with or without tool breakage. Experiments show this new approach can sense tool breakage in a wide range of face milling operations.
