The quality of a machined surface is becoming more and more important to justify the increasing demands of sophisticated component performance, longevity, and reliability. Usually, any machining operation leaves its own characteristic evidence on the machined surface in the form of finely spaced micro irregularities (surface roughness) left by the associated indeterministic characteristics of t...

In this study; utilizing the elastic matrix ball has higher processing efficiency and better superficial quality than traditionalgrinding. The diversity of elastic abrasive tool characteristics contact with bend surface results in irregular wear abrasion，and abrasive tool machining status gets complicated. There is no theoretical interpretation of parameters affecting the grinding accuracy. Bec...

Tool wear measurement is of great concern in machining industry, as it affects the surface qualities, dimensional accuracy and production costs of the machined components. The orthodox methods of measuring tool wear are time consuming and limited in accuracy and application. In this study, machine vision system based on digital image processing was developed for measurement of tool wear. The ba...

deep cryogenic heat treatment is assumed as a supplementary heat treatment performed on steels before the finaltempering treatment to enhance the wear resistance and hardness of the steels. in this study, the effects of thedeep cryogenic heat treatment on the wear behavior and corrosion resistance of the 1.2080 tool steel were studiedusing the wear testing machine and polarization and impedance...

-Electrical discharge machining (EDM) process, at present is still an experience process, wherein selected parameters are often far from the optimum, and at the same time selecting optimization parameters is costly and time consuming. In this paper cryogenic treatment is used for increasing the material removal rate and lowering the tool wear rate. cryogenic treatment is a process of keeping th...

Hard turning with cubic boron nitride (CBN) tools has been proven to be more effective and efficient than traditional grinding operations in machining hardened steels. However, rapid tool wear is still one of the major hurdles affecting the wide implementation of hard turning in industry. Better prediction of the CBN tool wear progression helps to optimize cutting conditions and/or tool geometr...

This paper describes the development of a machine vision system for automated tool wear inspection. The proposed approach measures the tool wear region based on the active contour algorithm and classifies the wear type by means of neural networks. Test results show that prevalent tool wears can be checked robustly in a real production environment and therefore the manufacturing automation can b...
