in manufacturing industry, it has been acknowledged that tool wear prediction has an important role in higher quality of products and acceptable efficiency. being an emerging area of research in recent years, drilling tool wear is an important factor which directly affects quality parameters of machined hole such as hole centring, roundness, burr formation and finished surface. in this paper, t...

Monitoring the tool flank wear without affecting the throughput is considered as the prudent method in production technology. The examination has to be done without affecting the machining process. In this paper we proposed a novel work that is used to determine tool flank wear by observing the sound signals emitted during the turning process. The work-piece material we used here is steel and a...

In finish-machining, geometric accuracy and surface quality m adversely affected by the tool wear at the minor flank and nose area. This paper describes an investigation into "comprehensive" tool wear estimation, including flank-, crater-. minor flank-, and nose-wear, based on an analysis of dynamic cutting force in oblique machining. The force, measured in terms of its three orthogonal compone...

A model of the flank wear of cutting tools is developed by using linear control theory. The flank wear is assumed to consist of a mechanically activated and a thermally activated component. The wear process is mathematically treated as a feedback process, whereby the progressive wear raises the cutting forces and temperature thereby increasing the thermally activated wear-rate, and contributes ...

In this analysis, an attempt has been made to study the effects of included angle, hardness, rake angle, tool approach angle and nose radius of cutting inserts on flank wear with the surface roughness as constraint. The selected parameters are varied through three levels. A new parametric study without considering any kind of benchmark problems in this area is performed and methodology has been...

a high strength nickel chromium alloy (50cr-50ni-nb alloy), commonly referred to as in-657, is specifically used for components in furnaces which are fired by low grade fuel oils containing high levels of vanadium, sodium and sulphur. the purpose of this study is to experimentally investigatethe effect of machining parameters on machinability in turning of inconel 657. the considered parameters...

In this research work a series of tests were conducted in order to determine flank wear and cutting force FY on hard AISI 440 C martensitic stainless steel and SCM 440 alloy steels. The operating parameters are cutting speed, feed rate and a constant depth of cut to investigate the flank wear and cutting force. No cutting fluid was used during the turning process. The cutting tool used was CBN ...

This paper presents a new statistical-based method of tool life monitoring for turning process, called Integrated Kurtosis-based Algorithm for Z-filter Technique, I-kaz, which was based on statistical analysis. The I-kaz method calculates the related coefficient for the measured machining signals. The input data of the I-kaz was acoustic signal that was generated during machining process, which...

In this paper, predictive modeling of cutting and ploughing forces, stress distributions on tool faces and temperature distributions in the presence of tool flank wear are presented. The analytical and thermal modeling of orthogonal cutting that is introduced in Karpat, Zeren and Özel [3] extended for worn tool case in order to study the effect of flank wear on the predictions. Work material co...

In the present work, two different types of artificial neural network (ANN) architectures viz. back propagation neural network (BPNN) and radial basis function network (RBFN) have been used in an attempt to predict flank wear in drills. Flank wear in drill depends upon speed, feed rate, drill diameter and hence these parameters along with other derived parameters such as thrust force, torque an...
