Monitoring Of Tool Wear And Surface Roughness Using Anfis Method During Cnc Turning Of Cfrp Composite, Md Mofakkirul Islam May 2022

Monitoring Of Tool Wear And Surface Roughness Using Anfis Method During Cnc Turning Of Cfrp Composite, Md Mofakkirul Islam

Theses and Dissertations

Carbon fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) is gaining wide acceptance in areas including sports, aerospace and automobile industry . Because of its superior mechanical qualities and lower weight than metals, it needs effective and efficient machining methods. In this study, the relationship between the cutting parameters (Speed, Feed, Depth of Cut) and response parameters (Vibration, Surface Finish, Cutting Force and Tool Wear) are investigated for CFRP composite. For machining of CFRP, CNC turning operation with coated carbide tool is used. An ANFIS model with two MISO system has been developed to predict the tool wear and surface finish. Speed, feed, depth of …


A Geometry-Based Motion Planner For Direct Machining And Control, Robert M. Cheatham Jul 2007

A Geometry-Based Motion Planner For Direct Machining And Control, Robert M. Cheatham

Theses and Dissertations

Direct Machining And Control (DMAC) is a new method of controlling machine tools directly from process planning software. A motion planning module is developed for the DMAC system that operates directly off path geometry without pre-tessellation. The motion planner is developed with the intent to process Bezier curves. The motion planning module includes a deterministic predictor-corrector-type curve interpolator, a dynamics limiting module, and a two-pass jerk-limited speed profiling algorithm. The methods are verified by machining an automotive surface in a clay medium and evaluating the resultant machine dynamics, feed rate, and chordal error throughout the machining process.

Flexible Machine Tool Control For Direct, In-Process Dimensional Part Inspection, Tyler Addison Davis

Theses and Dissertations

For some time now coordinate measuring machines have been an integral part of the shop floor. The goal has been to make coordinate measuring machines (CMMs) into tools that can easily be used by machinists to improve their manufacturing capabilities. The value of a CMM as a quality control tool is undisputed. Now efforts are being made to further reduce the time and cost of measurement by reducing the physical distance between machining and measuring processes. The ability to reduce that distance to zero and measure a part directly on the chip-making machine has been a goal for many years. …
