Digital cyber-physical system for designing and manufacturing of conical end mill

Abstract

Active development of digital cyber-physical systems for application the mechanical processing and design of new technologies opens up new opportunities for increasing the efficiency of control and monitoring. Cutting tool as general element of the technological system includes preparatory stages of its development consisting of different subsystems: subsystem for developing design methods; subsystem of CAD/CAM cutting tools (CT), subsystem for developing tool machining schemes; subsystem of automated production of CT, grinding multi-coordinate machine with CNC; subsystem of monitoring and control. Combine a digital twin with 3D computer vision, indicators of the tool machining process and the integration of the main parameters and indicators determined by combining data, knowledge about the grinding process, where the synergetic mechanism of communication of virtual and physical processes is revealed. Focusing on planning the process of disign conical end mills, a prototype tool is created to study potential scenarios for the application of the proposed cyber-physical in the intelligent prediction of the processing process at the stage of virtual shaping, which can provide an idea of the industrial implementation of the digital twin at enterprises in the machine tool industry.
