Abstract:
A study of the cutting force pulsation due to tool breakage is presented. Monitoring algorithms extracting the cutting force signal changes caused by tool breakage and further processing the extracted cutting force signal to recognize tool breakage are proposed. Theoretical studies and experimental results performed in milling operations have proven the feasibility of the algorithms proposed.
