Abstract
Cutting forces are valuable for monitoring machining processes, as they allow the evaluation of tool wear, process stability, and workpiece quality. This paper presents a new non-intrusive method for monitoring cutting forces using a Kalman filter (KF) and Rauch-Tung-Striebel (RTS) smoothing. The method incorporates structural acceleration measurements as well as feed drive motor currents, thereby achieving wide estimation bandwidth and steady-state (DC) gain preservation. The KF + RTS smoothing are parameterized using spindle speed-sweeping cutting tests, which significantly reduces the experimental effort for model identification. The approach was validated in different machining conditions, which demonstrated good agreement with dynamometer measurements.
