چکیده
This paper reviewed existing studies in the area of tool condition monitoring. The review revealed the substantial amount of works that have been done in the area of tool condition monitoring in machine tool. However, it was observed that investigating the feasibility of using the main spindle and feed motor currents for tool condition monitoring in micromachining has not been carried out despite their advantage of low cost and simplicity. Therefore this study went further to investigate spindle and feed motor current signals as to their ability for sensing and monitoring tool wear progression on a micro milling machine. This initial investigation revealed some promising process signals for monitoring tool wear progression in micro milling.
