With the wide use of CNC machine tools, data resources are gradually enriched. How to use the collected data resources for quality control becomes a hot topic for researchers. This paper introduces the use of grey correlation analysis theory to establish the relationship between the process parameters of CNC machine tools and quality data, and then provides a theoretical basis for the quality control using the process parameters of CNC machine tools.

Abstract. Manufacturing of high-precision components requires accuracies that even the most modern processing machines are often unable to deliver reliably. Slightly worn tools, incorrectly calibrated sensors or even different trajectories can lead to results that do not comply with the desired specifications. However, quality control is still mainly performed on randomized samples outside the machine tool in special measuring rooms. Therefore, closed-loop quality control becomes a cumbersome iterative process. With HoloPort, we present a digital holographic sensor system that is capable of measuring the complete topography of machined components with sub-micrometer precision directly inside a tooling machine. To our knowledge, HoloPort is the first wireless interferometric sensor inside a machine tool worldwide. As it is fully integrated, it features not only a multiwavelength interferometer but also a miniaturized graphics processing unit (GPU). This allows for full data evaluation directly in the sensor. A single measurement is taken and processed within 3 s during wireless operation. HoloPort is easy to integrate into a variety of machine tools. This contribution includes detailed information about the sensor architecture. Experimental results on milled parts demonstrate the performance of the system and illustrate possible inline applications as well as future perspectives for the sensor.

Dimensional quality control is critical for wider adoption of Additive Manufacturing (AM) as a direct manufacturing technology. Due to the process’ complex physics, AM-fabricated parts still require post-processing with machine tools, which significantly negates its time and cost benefits. In this paper, we investigate product shape deviation for Mask Image Projection Stereolithography (MIP-SLA) — one of the earliest commercialized AM techniques. By studying part fabrication mechanisms, we consider (i) over or under exposure, (ii) light blurring and (iii) phase change induced shrinkage or expansion as the most significant sources for shape deviations. Accordingly, the shape deviation modeling is established to quantify the effects of those influential factors and to understand the deviation mechanisms. Cylinders and cubes of various sizes were built to test our approach. Accurate prediction of shape deviation for all parts serves as a further confirmation of our model.

The paper deals with the improvement of quality control system harmonic drive with servo applying the method of compensation torque oscillations. The method consists of applying the rejection block. Post documents the oscillatory nature of the system servo-harmonic transmission. Described the reduction block connected to this system suppresses the oscillation of torque, speed and position of the harmonic drive output shaft thereby improving the quality of the regulatory process.The papers solves the problem of torque oscillations of the system which consist of servomotor and harmonic drive. Described rejection filter connected to the input of the system damps oscillations and increases the quality of control.

Ultramicrotomists live in a state of guerilla warfare with chatter. This situation is likely to be permanent. We can infer this from the history of machine tools. If set the wrong way for the particular combination of cutting tool and material, most if not all machine tools will chatter.In more than 100 years since machine tools became common, no one has evolved a practical recipe that guarantees avoiding chatter. Rather than follow some single very conservative rule to avoid chatter in all cases, machinists detect it when it happens, and change conditions until it stops. This is possible because they have no trouble telling when their cutting tool is chattering. They can see chatter marks, and they can also hear a sometimes deafening noise.
