With the increasing development of cutting processing technology and the transformation of new intelligent manufacturing methods, accurately monitoring the launch and performance of cutting tools requires more advanced sensors. In this paper, the development trend of sensors for cutting processing is studied.
Introduction
Cutting processing technology is a modern manufacturing method that utilizes cutting tools to cut objects into parts through higher energy, and it is a commonly used processing method. It has the characteristics of fast cutting speed, high assembly accuracy and low energy consumption, and is suitable for processing various materials. With the development of cutting processing technology and social needs, cutting processing technology has had a great impact on the whole national production and economic development. The impact of cutting processing on the relevant industries is very large. It not only accelerates the speed of other production, but also produces unprecedented quality of products.
At present, cutting processing technology has been widely used in many manufacturing fields, such as machinery manufacturing, automotive industry, electronic industry and aerospace industry. It has become the basis of the development of modern industry, and is supporting the process of industrial transformation and upgrading. However, in the process of cutting processing, various problems and instability often appear, and it is difficult to monitor and control the cutting process accurately. In order to improve the cutting accuracy and reduce the stability of the cutting tools, the accuracy and stability of the sensor have been improved, and the development of cutting processing sensor technology has become a key factor to guarantee the cutting accuracy.
Content
At present, the development of cutting processing sensors mainly focuses on the following aspects:
1. The development of sensor technology. With the development of manufacturing technology, the traditional cutting processing sensors such as displacement sensors and force sensors can no longer meet the needs of cutting processing technology. In order to monitor and optimize the cutting process, more advanced and intelligent cutting processing sensors are needed. At present, micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) technology and optical fiber sensors have been widely used in the research of cutting process sensors. MEMS-type cutting processing sensors have the advantages of small size, high accuracy, excellent stability and good shock resistance, and can be used for the measurement and detection of cutting position, cutting force and tool wear during cutting processing. Optical fiber sensors can effectively measure the strain and temperature change of cutting tool during working process, and obtain the real-time information of cutting tools.
2. The development of multi-functional cutting processing sensors. With the development of cutting processing technology, the cutting process sensors need to be able to meet the needs of multiple aspects. At present, the research of multi-functional cutting process sensors is carried out. For example, the cutting process sensors developed by many research institutions can measure the cutting speed, cutting force and cutting temperature at the same time. In this way, the multi-dimensional cutting process information could be obtained, and the accuracy, stability and optimization of the cutting process could be improved.
3. Intelligent development of cutting process sensors. At present, cutting process sensors are expected to have more intelligent functions. For example, some cutting process sensors can predict the performance of cutting tools and identify the cutting noise and other problems, in order to quickly improve the cutting environment and reduce the instability of cutting. At the same time, the development of Internet of Things (IoT) technology provides more convenience for the development of intelligent cutting process sensors, and more advanced cutting process sensors can be developed.
Conclusion
With the continuous development and innovation of cutting processing technology, the application of cutting process sensors is becoming more and more extensive. Due to the proportion of cutting out of production cost in total production cost, cutting processing technology is known as the last mile of production, and the effect of cutting processing sensors is unprecedented. In the future, the development of cutting process sensors will focus on the intelligentization, multi-function and miniaturization. The development and application of cutting process sensors can not only improve the accuracy and stability of cutting processing, but also play an important role in the development of modern intelligent manufacturing technology.
