절삭가공에서 공구의 마멸은 생산의 최적화에 영향을 주는 가장 중요한 요소중의 하나라고할 수 있다. 따라서 생산시스템이 자동화되고 유연성 및 생산성이 증대되면서, 공구의 수명이 끝났을 때의 공구교환을 위한 최적 의사 결정전략(Decision making stratagy)은 그 중요성이 점차 커지고 있다. 한편, 공구는 마멸의 진행에 따라 그 수명을 예측하여 교환해 주는 것이 바람직하다. 그러나 공구의 마멸은 여러가지 요인들의 복합적 작용에의해 발생하는 현상 이므로 그것을 정확히 예측한다는 것은 많은 어려움이 있다. 본 연구에서는 절삭력을 이용하여 공구의 여유면마멸 (Flank wear)과 경사면마멸을 감지하고자 한다 먼저 절삭력을 정적인 성분(Static component)과 동적인 성분(Dynamic component)로 구분하여 공구의 마멸을 감지하는데 이용하였다. 절삭력의 정적인 성분은 절삭조건의 변화에 대해 정규 화된(Normalized) 절삭력으로 모델링하여 공구의 여유면 마멸을 감지 하였다. 또한 공구의 경사면마멸이 발생한 경우에는 절삭력의 동적인 성분이 크게 변화함을 알 수 있었다.

초정밀 절삭용 다이아몬드 공구의 날끝 형상에 관해서는 여러 가지 설계안이 개발되어 제각기 성공적으로 사용되고 있지만 제품 품질의 균일성, 즉 성능과 수명의 차이는 아직까지 미해결이다. 또한, 초정밀공구의 날끝 능선에 관해서 최근 측정 데이터가 발표되고 있으나, 양호한 날끝능선, 불량한 능선 및 소정의 다듬질이 이루어지지 못하고 수명에 달해버린 능선 등에 대한 제각기의 형상, 구조 등이 밝혀지지 않고 있으며, 공구의 제작법을 개발하는 것은 금후의 연구과제로 남 아있다. 그리고, 단결정 바이트의 연마에 대해서는 많은 기술적인 진전이 이루어져 왔으나, 수 명의 차이는 해결하지 못하고 있다. 이는 날끝능선의 연마방향과 더불어 다이아몬드의 이방성, 원석의 품질 등과 관련이 있다고 볼 수 있다. 공구의 마멸과정이 결정방위에 의존하는 것은 당연하겠지만, 공구의 연마가공에서는 이방성 그 자체가 공구마멸에 나타나는 문제 및 경사면과 여유면의 마멸과 달리 예리한 인선을 둔화시키는 날끝 능선의 마멸은 어떻게 진행되는가가 문 제이며, 공구의 결정방위와 성능, 수명과의 관련은 실험적으로 해명되어야 할 것이다. 또한 재 료인 다이아몬드 원석에 있어서도, 커다란 결함이 발견된 것은 제외되지만 극히 경미한 결함은 어디까지 허용될 것인지가 문제이다. 내부응력, 착색 등 결함의 인자는 다양하지만 제각기 공구 의 성능 및 수명과의 관련은 명확하게 밝혀져 있지 않다. 이러한 인자 중에서도 어느 것이 가장 크게 영향을 미치는지 확인된다면 커다란 진보가 이루어질 것으로 기대된다.

Evaluation of cutting condition is one of the most important aspect to improve productivity and quality. In this study, the wear and cutting characteristics(cutting force, acoustic emission signal and surface roughness) of ceramic cutting tool for hardened die material(SKD11) were investigated by experiment. Flank wear on relief face of tool was occurred more dominant than crater wear on rake face. Experiments were performed under the various cutting condition.

Carbon fiber epoxy composite materials are widely used in the structures of aircrafts, robots and other machines because of their high specific stiffness, high specific strength and damping. In order for the composite materials to be used in the robot structure or machine element, bearing mounting and joining surfaces must be provided, which require accurate machining. In this paper, the machinability and tool wear characteristics of the milling operation of the carbon fiber epoxy composite materials were experimentally measured. The tool wear mechanism and the Taylor tool wear constants were determined. Also, the surface roughness of milling operation was measured w.r.t. cutting speed and feed.

The characteristics of AE(Acoustic Emission) signal is related to cutting conditio, tool material, and tool geometry in metal cutting. The relation between AE signal and tool life was investigated experimentally. Experiment is carried out by gear shaping and SCM 420 workpiece. AE RMS voltage were increased according totool wear. It is suggested that maximum value of AE RMS voltage is an effective parameter to monitor tool life.

The development of flexible automation in the manufacturing industry is concerned with production activities performed by unmanned machining system A major topic relevant to metal-cutting operations is monitoring toll wear, which affects process efficiency and product quality, and implementing automatic toll replacements. In this paper, the measurement of the cutting force components has been found to provide a method for an in-process detection of tool wear. The static com-ponents of cutting force have been used to detect flank wear. To eliminate the influence of variations in cutting conditions, tools, and workpiece materials, the force modeling is performed for various cutting conditions. The normalized force dis-parities are defined in this paper, and the relationships between normalized disparity and flank were are established. Final-ly, artificial neural network is used to learn these relationships and detect tool wear. According to proposed method, the static force components could provide the effective means to detect flank wear for varying cutting conditions in turning operation.

This study is focused on the prediction of appropriate tool life by clarifying the correlation between progressive tool wear and AE(Acoustic Emission) signals, while cutting stainless steel by end mill on the machining center. The results of this study were that RMSAE tends to increase linearly along with the increase of the cutting speed, and it was more sensitive to depth of cut than to the variation of feed rate at the same cutting conditions, and RMSAE increases around 0.21mm flank wear hereby AE-HIT also increases. AE signals depend upon tool wear and fracture from the above results. Therefore, the AE signals can be utilized in order to monitor the tool condition.

The experimental study for turning circular free fanned surface with TiN coated insert tool was conducted for different cutting conditions such as cutting speed, feed rate and depth-of-cut. For the fluctuation of 1.0mm depth-of-cut, the characteristics for machined surface and tool wear were less influenced by the feed rate and cutting speed than those of higher depth of cut. The higher surface roughness and surface precision were obtained in lower cutting speed. For the fluctuation of 1.5mm depth-of-cut, the higher surface roughness was obtained for the case of the lower feed rate of 0.05-10mm/rev and the higher cutting speed of 80m/min. For the fluctuation of 2.0mm depth-of-cut, the surface roughness and surface precision were too worse to machine the specimen And the flank wear on the tool was increased rapidly rather than the crater wear.

Micro end-milling process is applied to fabricate precision mechanical parts cost-effectively. It is a complex and time-consuming job to select optimal process conditions with high productivity and quality. To improve the productivity and quality of precision mechanical parts, micro end-mill wear and cutting force characteristics should be studied carefully. In this paper, high speed machining experiments are studied to construct the optimum process design as well as the mathematical modeling of tool wear and cutting force related to cutting parameters in micro ball end-milling processes. Cutting force and wear characteristics under various cutting conditions are investigated through the condition monitoring system and the design of experiment. In order to construct the cutting database, mathematical models for the flank wear and cutting force gradient are derived from the response surface method. Optimal milling conditions are extracted from the developed experimental models.
