Milling process monitoring based on intelligent real-time parameter identification for unmanned manufacturing

This study addresses the critical need for intelligent process monitoring in unmanned manufacturing through real-time fault detection. The proposed hybrid approach, which is focused on overcoming the limitations of existing methods, utilizes machine learning (ML) for precise parameter identification in real-time to detect deviations. The ML system is developed using extensive data obtained from simulations based on enhanced force models also achieved through ML. Demonstrating over 96 % accuracy in real-time predictions, the method proves applicable for diverse unmanned manufacturing applications, including monitoring and process optimization, emphasizing its adaptability for industrial implementation using CNC controller signals.
