APPLICATION OF ACOUSTIC EMISSION ON END MILLING MODELLING 

Anna Carla Araujo e Jose Luis Silveira  


Resumo: Application of acoustic emission technique for on-line monitoring of various manufacturing processes such as punch stretching, drawing, blanking, forging, machining and grinding has been reviewed and discussed. During the past several years has established the effectiveness of acoustic emission sensing methodologies for machine condition analysis and process monitoring. AE has been proposed and evaluated for a variety of sensing tasks as well as for use as a technique for quantitative studies of manufacturing processes. Acoustic emission generated during the end milling processes using a unique tool can give useful information of the detected wear and friction properties on tool/chip contact coefficients. The AE wear information can be added to the force prediction models developed for non-wear tools to include the edge force component.
