Abstract

The present paper focuses on two techniques, namely regression and neural network, for predicting tool wear. Predicted values of tool wear by both techniques were compared with experimental values. Also, the effects of the main machining variables on tool wear have been determined. The metal volume removed (MVR) was taken as response (output) variable and cutting speed, feed rate, depth of cut and hardness were taken as input parameters, respectively. The relationship between tool wear and machining parameters was found out by direct measurement of the tool wear by MVR. The results showed the ability of regression and neural network models to predict the tool wear, accurately.

Kurzfassung

Die diesem Beitrag zugrunde liegende Studie fokussiert sich auf zwei Technologien, und zwar der Regressionsanalyse und Neural Network Modellierungen, um den Werkzeugabtrag vorherzusagen. Die mit beiden Technologien vorhergesagten Abtragswerte wurden mit experimentellen Ergebnissen verglichen. Außerdem wurden die Effekte der Haupt-Maschinenvariablen auf den Werkzeugabtrag bestimmt. Der Metallvolumenabtrag (metal volume removed – MVR) wurde dabei als Antwort bzw. Output-Variable und die Schnittgeschwindigkeit, Vorschubrate, Schnitttiefe und Härte wurden dabei als Input-Parameter herangezogen. Es wurde ein Bezug zwischen dem Werkzeugabtrag und den Maschinenparametern hergestellt, in dem der Werkzeugabtrag direkt mittels MVR gemessen wurde. Die Ergebnisse zeigen die Möglichkeit der Regression und der Neural Network Modelle zur direkten Vorhersage des Werkzeugabtrages.
