Mechanical evolution of soymilk coagulation was investigated using a novel fiber optic sensor in order to solve the problem of instability in Chinese traditional tofu quality. The sensor signal was measured, and studied the effects of temperature, soymilk concentration, and calcium chloride solution concentrations on tofu making parameters. The scattering light ratio followed a sigmoid increase during soymilk coagulation. Tofu firmness, tofu moisture content, and tofu yield were predicted from the time to the maximum slope of the first derivative of scattering light ratio. The proposed mathematical model shows potential for on-line monitoring of soymilk coagulation.

Abstract With increase of machine speed, the influence of elastic components on dynamic characterises has become a very challenging problem. In our paper, we use self-made fiber-optic sensor on-line to detect the elastic locus. The sensor has highly transmitting and collecting light properties so that steady elastic locus has high precision and distinguishabilty. A theoretical analysis has been conducted using our program KEDL. The conclusions reveal more information about the dynamic characteristics of high-speed mechanisms.

A cost-effective technique for on-line wear monitoring of a milling tool is presented. The tool wear is estimated directly from a fiber optic sensor with high resolution and high bandwidth characteristics. This sensor provides a distance measurement between its probe and the tool profile. The contribution of this work is the application of this sensor to sense on-line wear of a milling tool. Since the light emitted by this sensor comes from a photodiode, it does not produce eye damage, this is safer than laser displacement sensors. This technique senses the tool wear in real time, while the tool is rotating, with an accuracy less than 1 micron. Experimental results are also presented for a four-flank cutting tool rotating at 300 rpm.
