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.

Recently researches for high speed machining have been actively performed. Few analytical studies, however, have been published. In this paper, a model of cutting forces is analytically studied to predict cutting characteristics in end mill process, especially considering both feed rate and spindle speed. The developed cutting model is based on Oxley's machining theory, which predicts the cutting forces from input data of workpiece material properties, tool geometry and cutting conditions. Experimental verification has been performed to verify the predictive cutting force model using tool dynamometer. It has been found that the simulation results substantially agree with experimental results.

The chip control problem is one of the important subjects to be studied in the metal cutting process. Especially, an important practical problem concerns the form of chips pro- duced in machining since this has important implications relative to : 1. Personal safety. 2. Possible damage to equipment and product. 3. Handling and disposal of swarf after machining. 4. Cutting forces, temperatures, and tool life. However, a dependable way to predict the form of chips in a wide range of cutting conditions has not been established satisfactorily. In this paper, the relationship between the form of chips and the ratios of cutting forces were studied experimentally. According to what the experiments have been carried out in the turning process the main results can be summarized as follows : 1. By use of the multiple linear regression model, emperical formulas which are suitable to wide ranges of cutting conditions with accuracy were obtained satisfactorily. 2. The correlations between the form of chips based upon the classification by Henriksen and the ratios of cutting forces, namely (feeding force/thrust force), (principal force/feeding force) were determined. 3. Using above results, the algorithms which predict the form of chips were constituted. With these algorithms, the form of chips in a wide range of cutting of cutting conditions can be predicted.

The in-process detection of the tool wear is one of the most important technologies in completely auto- matic operation of machine tool. In this research, using the tools having flank wear, the dynamic compo- nent of cutting forces is considered to be available for identifying the cutting process. In order to investi- gate this relation in detail, the cutting forces in turning of workpiece made of aluminum were measured by dynamometer of piezoelectric type, and the dynamic components of cutting force were analyzed. The fre- quency analysis, probability density analysis and RMS analysis of the dynamic components were carried out independently. Through the experiments, the characteristics of the tool system have a large effect on the dynamic component of cutting forces. As a result, it is shown that the dynamic cutting force was able to detect flank wear accurately.

In order to design establish automation or optimization of the machining process, predictions of the forces in machining are often needed. In this paper, a theoretical model in face milling is presented based on Oxley's predictive machining theory, where the cutting forces are predicted from input data of fundamental work material properties, tool geometry and cutting conditions without any preliminary cutting experiment. A simulation system for the cutting forces in face milling is developed using the model. Milling experimental tests are conducted to verify the model and the predictive results are compared and discussed with the experimental results.

Automatic monitoring of cutting process is one of the most important technology for increasing the stability and the reliability of unmanned manufacturing system. In this study, basic methods which use the acoustic emission (AE) signals and sutting forces proposed to monitor tool wear (flank wear) quantitatively.

If the on-line cutting conditions (e.g. speed, feedrate, radial and axal depth of cuts) can be identified in an end milling process, much information about cutting forces will be estimated from the cutting force model. Therefore, those estimated conditions can be applied to monitoring and control areas. In this paper, a real-time estimation algorithm for radial and axial depth of cuts is studied in end milling using the averaging cutting forces per tooth. The analytical estimation models of depth of cuts are derived from the geometric cutting force model. The validity of the estimation models is verified on a horizontal machining center through the experiments in various cutting conditions.

The cross section of the circular rod type workpiece to be cut in the band saw machine is variable at every moment in the sawing process. When the cutting feed rate is fixed to the constant speed, the cutting edges of the band saw teeth are also variabl eat any moment, so this causes the wear of the land saw teeth and the deterioration of the quality in the surface roughness. In this study, to work out this kind of problem basically, the mean cutting force of a tooth in the band saw was estimated by using the workpiece which was smaller than the interval of each tooth, i.e. band saw pitch, in the thickness. Then the static cutting forces were predicted by appling the mean cutting forces referred above to the mechanistic cutting force model which were analyzed through the geometric profile of a band saw tooth.

This paper presents an effective cutting force model that enable us to predict the instantaneous cutting force in face milling from a knowledge of the work material properties and cutting conditions. The development of the model is based on the orthogonal machining theory with the effective rake angle which is defined in the plane containing the cutting velocity and chip flow vectors. Face milling testes are performed at different feeds and, a fairly good agreement is shown between the predicted cutting forces and test results.
