Additionally, for workpieces with uneven allowance and high removal rates, the efficiency of traditional constant feed machining is notably low. To address these issues, this paper investigates a feedrate adaptive control method aimed at improving machining efficiency. Firstly, we analyze the signal data collected by the system. Using spindle system power as the signal for machining state monitoring, we study the composition of the collected spindle system power signals based on the energy transfer relationship of the spindle system. On this basis, we design a preprocessing algorithm for the power data, incorporating the concept of the command domain to mark the power data collected when the spindle speed is not constant. Secondly, a feedrate adaptive control method based on fuzzy theory is proposed to achieve adaptive control under constant power constraints. The proposed algorithm is validated through simulations, demonstrating good convergence. Furthermore, we design a control parameter self-adjustment algorithm. By constructing a reference model of the cutting process, this algorithm enables real-time adjustment of the fuzzy control parameters, ensuring the controller optimally performs at each stage of the machining process. Finally, experiments were conducted on an aerospace workpiece under both traditional constant feed machining mode and the proposed feedrate adaptive control machining mode. The results show that the proposed method improves machining efficiency by 23.1% and maintains spindle system power near the target power.

Current tool wear monitoring models typically focus on repeatable sensitive features in the machining signal that are consistent with the wear trend, and can only monitor from a single view. However, in actual machining processes, especially in micro-milling where signal strength is weak and signals are not sensitive to wear, such a single-view monitoring approach struggles to handle the complex nonlinear variations in signals during actual machining. Therefore, this study innovatively proposes a tool wear monitoring model based on a dual-view fusion feature learning mechanism. The feature extraction capability of the model is enhanced by introducing a Siamese neural network. First, the Kolmogorov-Arnold neural network (KAN) is constructed to extract repeatable features that align with the tool wear trend from all signals, building the original feature vector. Secondly, the Siamese neural network is embedded to capture the feature differences between the current signal and the initial machining signal, and the feature difference vector is constructed. The feature difference vector effectively avoids interference of signals caused by sudden variation of cutting state and environment during the intermediate machining process, which enhances the differentiation of the machining signals under different wear states and provides a new training perspective for tool wear monitoring. Then, the original feature vectors are fused with the feature difference vectors to form a dual-view fusion feature with excellent generalization ability. The model not only captures global features in all signals, but also adaptively learns correlations and differences between signals, providing richer feature information for tool wear monitoring. To verify the superiority of the model, ablation experiments and micro-milling experiments are performed. The results show that the Siamese network effectively enhanced the feature extraction and generalization capabilities of models. The performance of models with dual-view features for tool wear monitoring is improved compared to standalone models. Among all models, the dual-view model based on the Siamese and the KAN network has the highest accuracy, with 97.95 % prediction accuracy. In addition, it is still highly accurate under new micro-milling conditions.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51124,"journal":{"name":"Mechanical Systems and Signal Processing","volume":"236 ","pages":"Article 113038"},"PeriodicalIF":7.9,"publicationDate":"2025-06-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144510756","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The TP-CTS process utilizes a dual-stage feed drive system coordinated through a master–slave strategy, wherein the machine tool axis serves as the master servo and the fast tool axis as the slave servo. Tool trajectories are pre-filtered and assigned to the master servo, while the slave servo compensates in real time for deviations from the reference trajectory. The pre-filtering approach effectively bypasses the kinematic and dynamic constraints of the master servo, enabling full utilization of the dynamic capabilities of both servos. To further enhance system performance, an online data-driven control strategy is developed for the slave servo, integrating a Koopman operator-based feedforward controller with a high-bandwidth feedback controller to achieve near-zero phase-lag tracking.

To address this issue, this paper introduces a force–displacement (F&D) collaborative decoupling measurement method specifically designed for measuring all-angle vector forces using distributed measurement techniques. Firstly, simulation calculations are used to analyze the error source of vector force coupling when vector forces are applied at different angles. By analyzing the cause of coupling, a multi-layer coordinate system and its corresponding transformation relationship are derived through the placement of multiple measuring points within the test device. Then, the output of the force sensors is decomposed and reconstructed layer by layer according to the multilevel coordinate system transformation, and combined with the orthogonal linear matrix, the coupling error is eliminated under the multi-source interference. Finally, the experiment of unidirectional loading and vector loading is carried out. The results show that the amplitude error of vector force after decoupling is less than 0.95 %, and the angle error of vector force is less than 3.76 %. The error is reduced by over 50 % when compared to the linear decoupling method. The comparison with different decoupling methods shows that this method has the highest decoupling accuracy.
