Development of an ANN model for prediction of tool wear in turning EN9 and EN24 steel alloy

An imperative requirement of a modern machining system is to detect tool wear while machining to maintain the surface quality of the product. Vibration signatures emanating during machining with a single point cutting tool have proven to be good indicators for the tool’s health. The current research undertaken utilizes vibration signatures while turning EN9 and EN24 steel alloy to predict tool life using Artificial Neural Network (ANN). During...
