The higher levels degrees of automation for industry 4.0 standards require optimization techniques in production activities including tool wear monitoring. The unmonitored tool may spoil the product if it is worn out more than the permitted levels or micro broken or cracked internally. A novel method suggested in this work utilizes neither extra ordinary calculation nor complex mathematical transformations in tool wear monitoring. This method follows no video capturing and image processing rather follows a simple sound wave monitoring captured at the time conversion process by a microphone. The SER a PCA variant technique with the purpose of used in selecting simply the higher velocity of principal components (PCs) in quantifying the feature extracted while separating noise from sound signals. A SER method is used for the selection of suitable PCs for consideration. The best methods of normalization suitable for the SER method is found and implemented the PCA-SER on signals after filter the signals by butter worth filter to remove noise. This proposed procedure resulted in wide differences and proper annotation in differentiating the degree of tool wear in fresh, slight and severely worn categories.

This paper details experimental results when turning Ti-6Al-4V using water-miscible vegetable oil-based cutting fluid. The effects of coolant concentration and working conditions on tool flank wear and tool life were evaluated. L27 fractional factorial Taguchi array was employed. Tool wear (VBB) ranged between 28.8 and 110 µm. The study concluded that a combination of VOs based cutting fluid concentration (10%), low cutting speed (58 m/min), feed rate (0.1mm/rev) and depth of cut (0.75mm) is necessary to minimise VBB. Additionally, it is noted that tool wear was significantly affected by cutting speeds. ANOVA results showed that the cutting fluid concentration is statistically insignificant on tool flank wear. A notable increase in tool life (TL) was recorded when a lower cutting speed was used.
