The need for machining has grown exponentially with increasing demands for quality and accuracy, and despite of more than a century of research in the field, there are no reliable and accurate models that describe all the physical phenomena needed to optimize the machining processes. The scientific community has begun to explore hybrid methods instead of expanding the capabilities of individual modelling schemes, which has been more efficient than efficacious direction. Following this trend, we propose a hybrid finite element — machine learning method (FEML) for modelling metal cutting. The advantages of the FEML method are reduced need for experimental data, reduced computational time and improved prediction accuracy. This paper describes the FEML model, which uses a Coupled Eulerian Lagrangian (CEL) formulation and deep neural networks (DNN) from the TensorFlow Python library. The machining experiments include forces, chip morphology and surface roughness. The experimental data was divided into training dataset and validation dataset to confirm the model predictions outside the experimental data range. The hybrid FEML model outperformed the DNN and FEM models independently, by reducing the computational time, improving the average prediction error from 23% to 13% and reduced the need for experimental data by half.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":56011,"journal":{"name":"CIRP Journal of Manufacturing Science and Technology","volume":"55 ","pages":"Pages 333-346"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2024-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142531483","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Firstly, a novel method for accurately determining the curvature parameters of pinion tooth surfaces, based on predefined contact parameters, has been developed using ease-off topology. Then, based on the pinion gear cutting pitch cone model, a coupled tooth line vector transformation model is proposed to calculate the principal curvature parameters of the nodes. Additionally, a set of equations for the pinion tooth surface contact control parameters is derived, and a formula for calculating the pinion gear cutting adjustment parameters is provided. Finally, two sets of pinion tooth surface contact control parameters were obtained using DTS-PCM: the calculated tooth contact analysis(TCA) and ease-of-topology results. The findings demonstrate that the proposed method is largely consistent with the outcomes of the GEMS calculations, thereby validating the accuracy of DTS-PCM.

An original Drop Hammer based Orthogonal Cutting (DHOC) test machine driven by gravitational potential energy was developed to conduct the machinability test. Using the Cutting Distance with Equal Energy (CDEE) method, machinability can be assessed by measuring the cutting distance without expensive measuring apparatus. Therefore, the cutting distance indicator can simplify the test procedure. Meanwhile, the CDEE method avoids the necessity for precisely calculating the consumptions of various complex cutting energies. Moreover, in-situ measurements coupled with the Digital Image Correlation (DIC) technique and Electron Back-Scattered Diffraction (EBSD) characterizations were utilized to evaluate the deformation characteristics and surface integrity during the CDEE tests. The proposed CDEE method has been validated from three aspects involving materials, cutting tools, and surface modification technology. Furthermore, a machinability optimization procedure based on the CDEE method has been proposed. The cutting distance indicator was used as an optimization objective for optimizing technology parameters to improve machinability.
