Research on remote state monitoring and intelligent maintenance system of CNC machine tools

Abstract

In order to improve the operation reliability of high-grade computer numerical control (CNC) machine tools and reduce the maintenance time of failures, the remote state monitoring and intelligent maintenance system for CNC machine tools was proposed. Through collecting the basic information of equipment, maintenance information, and the information of the vibration, temperature, main current and power of the machine tool based on soft-bus technology, the system analysed the real-time state data, got the reliability parameters, extracted the fault features and established the maintenance knowledge base. Combining the dynamic monitoring data and static data, the system evaluated the key parts of machine tools. By the fault knowledge base, the system analysed the reason for failure and recommended the maintenance method. With the function modules, the system can improve the intelligent maintenance level of CNC machine tools and improve the using efficiency of machine tools.
