MACHINE TOOL ABILITY REPRESENTATION: A REVIEW
Journal Title: Journal of Machine Engineering - Year 2018, Vol 18, Issue 2
Abstract
Smart manufacturing and predictive maintenance are current trends in the manufacturing industry. However, the holistic understanding of the machine tool health condition in terms of accuracy, functions, process and availability is still unclear. This uncertainty renders the development of models and the data acquisition related to machine tool health condition ineffective. This paper proposes the term machine tool ability as an interconnection between the accuracy, functions, the process and the availability to overcome the lack of the holistic understanding of the machine tool. This will facilitate the further development of qualitative or quantitative methods as well as models. The research highlights the challenges and gaps to understand the machine tool ability.<br/><br/>

DETECTION OF WEAR PARAMETERS USING EXISTING SENSORS IN THE MACHINES ENVIRONMENT TO REACH HIGHER MACHINE PRECISION
This paper presents methods to plan predictive maintenance for precision assembly tasks. One of the key aspects of this approach is handling the abnormalities during the development phase, i.e. before and during process...
HYBRID ADDITIVE AND SUBTRACTIVE MANUFACTURING PROCESSES AND SYSTEMS: A REVIEW
This review paper highlights the hybrid manufacturing processes which integrate the additive and subtractive processes performing on one hybrid platform consisting of the LMD (laser metal deposition) unit and CNC machine...
SIMULATION FOR INSTABLE FLOATING OF HYDRODYNAMIC GUIDES DURING ACCELERATION AND AT CONSTANT VELOCITY
High speeds and the resulting hydrodynamic pressure lead to significant floating of the linear guides. During this movement, the floating behaviour shows phenomena that can be explained by the Reynolds equation. This pap...
Application of bat-cell bio-ambient tests in exhaust gas emissions examinations for Euro 4 and Euro 6 combustion engines
The introduction of the subsequent European emission standards raises controversy among vehicle manufacturers and researchers. In order to meet the legal requirements, it is necessary to continually improve not only the...
PREDICTION OF THE SHAPE ACCURACY OF PARTS FABRICATED BY MEANS OF FLM PROCESS USING FEM SIMULATIONS
The prediction of component properties from the Additive manufacturing (AM) process poses a challenge. Therefore, this paper presents the development of a novel machine data (G-Code) based procedure as well as its progra...
