Intelligent Machining Technology in Cutting Process

Abstract

Metal cutting is a very complex process. In the cutting process, the related knowledge and theories of physics, chemistry, mechanics, materials science, vibration, tribology, heat transfer and other fields are involved. The cutting process control has been the focus of the cutting research. With the development of machining technology and the coming of the Industry 4. 0, researchers are getting more concerned with the intelligent machining technology. It is an inevitable trend to apply the intelligent machining technology in the cutting process. The connotation and the application process of intelligent machining technology is expounded to investigate the critical technology in intelligent manufacturing. The research results in the simulation and optimization, cutting process condition monitoring, and optimization control are reviewed. Through analyzing the application prospect and problems of intelligent machining technology, the main scientific problems and key technologies to be solved are proposed. Intelligent machining is the development direction of processing technology. The application of intelligent machining technology in the cutting process will bring another technological revolution in the manufacturing industry.
