Abstract

The monitoring of tool wear plays an important role in improving the processing efficiency and reducing the production cost of enterprises. This paper is focused on the detection of electroplated diamond mill-grinding tools by using the acoustic emission sensor. The wear stages of mill-grinding tools are divided into three parts, namely initial wear stage, normal wear stage, and severe wear stage. The characteristic parameter method and the waveform analysis method are applied to analyze the acoustic emission signals. The wear characteristics of the tool and workpiece in different wear stages are observed and analyzed. The results indicate that the acoustic emission waveform is relatively stable in the initial wear stage, and the continuous acoustic emission signal is dominated. Moreover, the diamond abrasive grains are mainly worn and slightly broken in the normal wear stage, and there are some pits on the machined workpiece surface after the initial wear stage. In the severe wear stage, most of the abrasive grains are broken or broken in a large area, and there are burst acoustic emission signals in the waveform.
