비젼시스템을 이용한 공구마모 측정기술

It is well know that the interest on the on-line sensing of tool wear is groeing more and more with the aim of controlling machine tools productivity form the point of view of quality and quantity. This paper describes the sensing of the amount of flank wear with vision system. To obtain a proper image He-Ne laser generator is used as the lighting source and obtained image is processed with block processing algorithm and morphological image processing method. By means of this system it is possible to evaluate the parameters of tool wear. Experimental tests performed with this system on an NC lathe have shown good performances here described and discussed.
