This Paper presents an application example of the Adaptive Robust Servocontrol (ARSC) scheme, which is an explicit (or indirect) pole-assignment adaptive algorithm with the property of "robustness". The ARSC scheme is applied to an end-milling process for cutting force regulation. It is shown that the federate of an end-milling process can be maximized by the adaptive regulation of the peak cutting force through the ARSC scheme. The results of simulation study and real cutting experiment are presented. It has been verified that asymptotic regulation can be achieved with robustness against the slowly time-varying perturbations to the process model parameters, which are caused by nonlinear cutting dynamics. dynamics.

Automatic monitoring of cutting process is one of the most important technologies for increasing the stability and the reliability of unmanned manufacturing system. In this study, basic methods which use the acoustic emission (AE) signals and cutting forces were proposed to monitor flank wear (width of flank wear) quantiatively. First, in order to detect flank wear, it was investigated that the influence of cutting conditions, that is, cutting velocity, feed and depth of cut, on AE signals (${AE_rms}$) and cutting forces. Furthermore, the relation between flank wear and the measured signals (${AE_rms}$, cutting force) was discussed.

The purpose of this paper is to investigate components of surface roughness in turning with respect to the tool configuration and the changes of working conditions. Tool configurations of SNMG120404, SNMG120408 and DNMG150404, DNMG150408 are used, and working conditions such as cutting speed 3nd feed are varied. That is, the changes of cutting speed and feed were 150, 200, 250 m/min and 0.05, 0.1, 0.3 mm/rev, respectively. From the results obtained by the frequency analysis with spectrum, it is noted that the surface roughness was influenced most significantly by the feed. It is also observed that the vibration of bite had an effect on both the surface roughness and the surface waviness. Moreover, the influence of surface roughness increases as the feed decreases. Lastly, the vibration of the spindle was found to have little influence on the surface roughness in normal cases and the tool configuration was not the components of the surface roughness.

In this study, the cross-coupling control (CCC) with three new features is proposed to maintain contour precision in high-speed nonlinear contour machining. One is an improved contour error model that provides almost exact calculation of the errors. Another is the utilization of variable controller gains based on the instantaneous curvature of the contour and the variable command. For this scheme, a stability is analyzed. As a result, the stability region is obtained, and the variable gains are decided within that region. The other scheme in the proposed CCC is a real-time feedrate adaptation module to regulate cutting force fur better surface finish through regulation of material removal rate (MRR). The simulation results show that the proposed CCC system can provide better precision than the existing method particularly in high-speed machining of nonlinear contours.

This paper presents a new model of NC verification in NC milling using z-map. The model can describe the motion of machine tool like a real machine effectively. The model uses x, y, and z directional feed rate as well as cutting data for modeling Z-map of workpiece. The model verifies the over-cut, the under-cut and the surface topography using NC codes and cutting conditions. To investigate the performance of the model, simulation study was carried out. As the results, the model gave the geometry accuracy of workpiece, the surface topography, and the chip loads.

Off-line feed rate scheduling is an advanced methodology to automatically determine optimum feed rates for the optimization of NC code. However, the present feed rate scheduling systems have lim~tations to generate the optimized NC codes because they use the material removal rate or non-generalized cutting force model. In this paper, a feed rate scheduling system based on an improved cutting force model that can predrct cutting forces exactly in general machining was presented. Original blocks of NC code were divided to small ones with the modified feed rates to adjust the peak value of cutting forces to a constant vale. The characteristic of acceleration and deceleration for a given machrne tool was considered when off-line feed rate scheduhng was performed. Software for the NC code optimization was developed and applied to pocket machining simulation.

In order to regulate the cutting force at a desired level during peripheral end milling processes, a feedrate override Adaptive Control Constant system was developed. This paper presents an explicit pole-assignment PI-control law through spindle motor current monitoring and its application to cutting force regulation for feedrate optimization. An experimental set-up is constructed for the commercial CNC machining center without any major changes of the structure. A data transfer system is constructed with standard interface between an IBM compatible PC and a CNC of the machining center. Experimental results show the validity of the system.

Continuous sliding mode control is applied to turning process for cutting force regulation. The highest feedrate compatible with the allowable cutting force is applied in rough cutting process such that maximum productivity is ensured and tool breakage is avoided. The programmed feedrate is overridden after the control algorithm is carried out. However, most CNC lathe manufacturers offer limited number of data bits far feedrate override, thus resulting in nonlinear behavior of the machine tools. Such nonlinearity brings “quantized” effect, and the optimal faedrate is rounded off before being fed into the CNC system. To compensate for this problem, continuous sliding mode control is applied. Conventional switching control law at a sliding surface is replaced by a smooth control interpolation in a selected boundary layer to avoid the excitation of high-frequency dynamics. Simulation results are presented in comparison with those obtained by applying adaptive control.

기술과 과학이 끊임없이 발달되고 있는 가운데 생산기술과 생산공업도 비약적으로 발달되고 있다. 공작기계에 대한 요구사항은 일반적으로 고정도화, 고속도화 그리고 고능률화 나아가서는 자동화이다. 다시 말해서 더욱 좋은 품질(고정도화)과 저렴한 가격(고능률화)의 제품을 빨리 사용자에게 공급(고속화)할 수 있고, 다양한 제품을 만들 수 있는 공작기계가 요구되는 것이다. 고능률화 또는 고속화를 위해서는 고속절삭가공을 실현해야하며 그러기 위해서는 Spindle(주축)의 회전수를 높이고 각 축의 이송 속도가 빨라야 되며 절삭 이송을 고속화하여야 한다. 그리고, 머시닝센터에서는 공구를 자동으로 교환하는(ATC)을 신속히 해야 한다. 이와 같은 고속 공작기계에 대한 요구는 점점 많아지고 있으며 공작기계전시회가 열릴때마다 고속도화는 점점 진전되고 있다. 최근에는 주축의 회전수가 10,000$min^{-1}$은 보통이고 최고 40,000$min^{-1}$이상에 도달하고 있다.
