Increasing demands for high quality and high performance gear manufacturing are reflected in a need for a model based investigation of gear hobbing process. This paper presents the development of a system for online measurement of actual cutting force components during gear hobbing. Although there are a large number of well developed cutting force measuring systems for different machining operations available in the market, it is difficult to find a system tailored to the requirements of a gear hobbing process. Hence, a fixture containing piezoelectric dynamometer and telemetry device is developed. The fixture is designed taking the real machining circumstances into consideration. The telemetry system enables wireless measurement of cutting force while machining. Multiphysics finite element analysis and Artificial Neural Network (ANN) are used as tools for modeling, simulation, and calibration of the developed system. Final stage of this work includes conducting hobbing experiments to validate both the model and the force measurement system.

Abstract The paper is focused in the field of cutting forces measurement by modern sensors and data acquisition systems. It is presented the measurement chain with its components. Thus, there are presented the piezoelectric sensors that are commonly used in modern cutting forces dynamometers construction, as well as some typical topologies. The measurement system includes a data acquisition system that allows the real time data acquisition during the cutting process. The proposed cutting force measurement system can be used in the measurement of three orthogonal forces in milling processes, as well as the measurement of the torque in drilling processes.

It is important to build the models for calculating the cutting-forces in high-speed machining, but it is difficult as the special test-bed with the cutting-force measurement system is complicated, cost much and cannot be applied directly on general machining tools. Aiming at the problems above, a new method was put forward about cutting-force modeling based on the current of high-speed electric spindles, in which the cutting-force models could be gained indirectly by analyzing the built-in motor current and the data gotten from cutting experiments on those general machining tools which are installed with electric spindles. Then on a vertical milling machine tool which is equipped with a high-speed electric spindle, a model for calculating the milling force was gotten using the method put forward by this paper. The results show that the method is simple and easy to be used in routine machine tools in plant spots and need no any special test-beds and any complicated measurement systems possessed only in the laboratory conditions.
