The paper studies tool wear prediction during complex cavity milling, proposing a modeling pipeline that converts machining signals to time-frequency maps using short-time Fourier transform and then feeds both the raw signal and time-frequency representation into an improved depth residual network with an added feature fusion layer. The authors filter “tool wear sensitive” features using Pearson correlation from both time and frequency domains and extract deep residual features from the time-frequency map before fusing them for regression-based wear prediction. Reported experiments show an average prediction deviation of 0.76%, outperforming the original deep residual network, a shallow CNN, and an artificial feature-based machine learning model. The paper does not explicitly state limitations or caveats in the provided text. The paper does not explicitly discuss endometriosis or adenomyosis; it was included in the corpus via a keyword match in the upstream search index.

Abstract

The parts with integrated design technology are widely used in aerospace field because of their advantages such as high strength and high reliability compared with riveted structures, which often present multiple cavities and thin walls, and milling occupies a large amount of machining time, while it is very easy to cause rapid degradation of tool performance because their materials are mostly made of hard-to-machine metals. To address the failure of traditional methods in monitoring the tool trajectory of complex cavity milling process, this paper proposes a tool wear prediction method based on short-time Fourier transform and improved depth residual network. Firstly, the short-time Fourier transform is used to convert the signal into a time-frequency map. Then, to solve the problem that the depth residual network describes the machining state from a single perspective, the original model is improved by adding a feature fusion layer. Finally, the signal and the time-frequency map are simultaneously input into the improved deep residual network, and the tool wear sensitive features filtered by Pearson correlation coefficient are extracted from the time domain and frequency domain of the signal, and the deep features in the time-frequency domain are extracted from the residual block structure of the time-frequency map, and the tool wear sensitive features and the deep features in the time-frequency domain are fused in the feature fusion layer to complete the model training. The experimental results show that the average prediction deviation of tool wear by the regression model established in this paper is 0.76%, which is lower than that of the original deep residual network, shallow convolutional neural network and artificial feature-based machine learning model.
