Abstract
Recently, manufacturing work has been transformed to small scale production form with various types to act up to user's expectation from mass production with a little items required in the past. Then FMS using NC type machinaries has been applied actively also in domestic manufacturing line to meet thus tendency, but there are many machining troubles occured during work process not be settled yet. Nowdays high efficiently has been required no less than high precision in grinding work for the improvement of productivity. In this study, to represent more advance FMS can be adapted to thus situation In-process type monitoring method using AE and Current sensors is suggested to investigate the machining condition in grinding process. As results form this experimental study, it is recognized well that grinding conditions and dressing point of in time cab be estimated effectively using monitoring method suggested. Furthermore, surface shape of grinding wheel on voluntary point of in time can be predicted indirectly through the observation and comparison of AE signal waveform obtained as performance of continuous dressing work.
