A study on fault diagnosis and maintenance of CNC-WEDM based on binary relational analysis and expert system

The paper presents a binary relational analysis and expert system base module for maintenance and fault diagnosis of CNC wire EDM. The module proposes a framework of integrated maintenance and fault diagnosis system. The study explores the binary coded matrix system, which plays an important role in prediction and diagnosis of wire electrical discharge machining (WEDM) faults on the spot by expert guidance. In this study, 15 inputs were considered to observe eight probable causes with the help of the forward and backward propagation algorithms. Inputs and output matrices were considered in the form of a square matrix. To explain the fault diagnosis and to realize the importance of maintenance through advice, the detection of faults is investigated through forward and back propagation of matrix transformation on the spot. It is an integrated backup that can be individually focused when input and output parameter do not match. It is a time saving, knowledge acquisition, easy to maintain, and capable of self-learning system. To verify the developed framework, 120 data sets were generated for proper analyzing of acquired output through graphical representation. The paper also presents some of the important features of maintenance schedule and probable causes of wire breakage with remedial actions in tabular form. The developed system can help the operators, trainees, and manufacturing engineers in achieving trouble free machining through quick detection of faults and proper maintenance of machines in actual practice.

Development of a mechanical rock breakage experimental platform

With social and economic development and improvement of science and technology, tunnel boring machines, raise boring machines, reaming machines and road headers have been unprecedentedly applied to underground engineering construction. Mechanical rock breakage experiments became an indispensable mean for mechanical excavation of underground engineering. It can also guide the design and operation of excavation machines. This paper introduces the new mechanical rock breakage experimental platform developed by Beijing University of Technology. The design and manufacture of this platform considered the influence of high in situ stress, cutter head rotation and rock breakage by multi-cutters at the same time on the rock breakage process. Different tools, such as rolling cutters, scraper, ripper, and pick, for different excavation machines can be tested in the platform. It can also take into account the different rock mass structure in the sample box. Different construction conditions with different cutting tools can be realistically modeled. The experimental platform consists of a mechanical system, a hydraulic system, an automatic control system and a data acquisition system. After installation of the designed experimental platform, several tests with different construction conditions were conducted. The experimental results showed that the platform reached its design requirements.     

The effect of particle breakage mechanisms during regrinding on the subsequent cleaner flotation

Stirred mills have been widely used for regrinding, and are acknowledged to be more energy efficient than tumbling mills. These two types of mills present different particle breakage mechanisms during grinding. In this study, the effect of regrinding by both mills on surface properties and subsequent mineral flotation was studied, using chalcocite as the mineral example. A rod mill and a stirred mill with the same stainless steel media were used to regrind rougher flotation concentrates. Different chalcocite flotation recovery was achieved in the cleaner stage after regrinding in tumbling and stirred mills. The factors contributing to the different recovery included particle size, the amount of created fresh surfaces, surface oxidation and the redistribution of collector carried from rougher flotation. All the factors were examined. It was determined that the predominating factor was the different distribution of collector resulting from different particle breakage mechanisms in the stirred and tumbling mills, in line with ToF-SIMS analysis. In the tumbling mill, the impact particle breakage mechanism predominates, causing the collector to remain on the surface of newly produced particles. In the stirred mill, the attrition breakage removes collector from the surface, and decreases particle floatability. Furthermore, the type of grinding media in the stirred mill also influences the subsequent flotation, again due to the change of particle breakage mechanisms. The results of this study demonstrate that the selection of regrinding mills and grinding media should not only depend on the required energy efficiency, but also on the properties of the surfaces produced for subsequent flotation.     

Maximum dry density test to quantify pumice content in natural soils

Crushable volcanic soils are well-known for their distinctive texture, vesicular nature and grain fragility. These features of volcanic soils lead to difficulty in interpreting the results of laboratory and field testing because of the occurrence of particle crushing. Sands containing pumice particles are commonly found in the Hamilton Basin in the North Island of New Zealand. The pumice particles originated from a series of volcanic eruptions centered in the Taupo and Rotorua regions. As a result of flooding and erosion along the Waikato River, the pumice particles have become mixed with other materials and have been distributed over the Hamilton Basin; these mixtures are referred to herein as natural pumiceous (NP) sands. This paper initially investigates an appropriate technique for measuring the maximum dry density (MDD) of NP sands; then a modified MDD test is proposed for estimating the pumice contents of these sands. In order to examine the applicability of different standard methods for determining MDD, New Zealand and Japanese standards are employed. The results using the Japanese standard show consistent MDD values when repeating the tests due to negligible particle crushing. On the other hand, the results of MDD tests according to the New Zealand standard indicate that a significant amount of particle crushing occurs after each repeated test and, consequently, it is not possible to get the same result when the test is repeated. NP sands reach their ultimate potential breakage during the modified MDD tests (at least, for the level of loading applied) and they experience different levels of particle crushing which may be a function of their pumice content. As a way forward, the relative breakages of the materials tested are used to estimate the pumice contents of the NP sands.     

Novel aspects of wet milling for the production of microsuspensions and nanosuspensions of poorly water-soluble drugs

Micronization and nanoparticle production of poorly water-soluble drugs was investigated using single wet milling equipment operating in the attritor and stirred media modes. The drug particles in the median size range of 0.2–2?µm were prepared by changing the milling mode and operating conditions of a Micros mill with a purpose of elucidating the dynamics of the wet milling process. It was determined that particle breakage due to mechanical stresses and aggregation due to insufficient stabilization are two competing mechanisms which together control the wet milling dynamics of the poorly water-soluble drugs. The study in the attritor mode using four different classes of stabilizers with six drugs indicated that steric stabilization worked better than electrostatic stabilization for the drugs studied. In addition, the existence of different minimum polymer concentrations for the stabilization of microsuspensions and nanosuspensions was indicated. The major role of a non-ionic polymer during the production of fine particles is its stabilization action through steric effects, and no experimental evidence was found to support the so-called Rehbinder effect. Periodic addition of the polymer as opposed to the addition of the polymer at the start of milling process was introduced as a novel processing method. This novel method of polymer addition provided effective stabilization and breakage of drug particles leading to a narrower and finer particle size distribution. Alternatively, it may allow shorter processing time and lower overall power consumption of the milling process for a desired particle size.     

DETERMINATION OF TIME-DEPENDENT CONSTITUTIVE MODEL PARAMETERS FOR MICROCRYSTALLINE CELLULOSE

ABSTRACT

Material parameters of a time-dependent elasto-viscoplaslic constitutive model, proposed by Adachi and Oka, have been determined for microcrystalline cellulose. Adachi and Oka model has eight material parameters, with five of them (i.e., consolidation index, swelling index, critical index, shear modulus, and Poisson's ratio) same as those in the more commonly used in time-independent modified Cam-clay model, and remaining three parameters account for time-dependency. To measure the time-dependent parameters, constant strain-rate conventional triaxial compression (CTC) test was designed and conducted using Penn Slate's flexible-boundary cubical triaxial tester (CTT) with microcrystalline cellulose as the test material. To deposit the powder, the sprinkle filling method was used in a layer by layer fashion with a small spoon. The three time-dependent Adachi and Oka parameters were determined from these tests. Adachi and Oka model was verified by comparing the predicted values from the model with measured values from the CTT at 0.05 level of significance. Results showed that: 1) there were no significant differences (p > 0.05) between measured and predicted HTC responses at all loading rates; 2) failure values were predicted accurately (p > 0.05); and 3) there were significant differences (p < 0.05) between measured and predicted CTC responses at all loading rates.
