FA Application Package Tool Wear Diagnosis for Machine Tools

The Advanced Data Science Tool is a software that links to iQ Monozukuri Tool Wear Diagnosis for Machine Tools to utilize IoT data for the support of tool diagnosis, equipment maintenance, and statistical analysis.

This software is optional with iQ Monozukuri Tool Wear Diagnosis for Machine Tools.
PC
Use Case1

I want to check for any changes to the system state when a machining abnormality occurs!

By comparing the waveforms of air-cut data and actual machining data, it is possible to determine differences in cutting load. This information can then be used to diagnose tool abnormalities.

graph

Understand the difference in waveforms between an air-cut and actual machining

Comparing the waveforms allows you to better understand the difference between worn and new tools, as well as normal and abnormal machining.

Understand the difference in waveforms between worn and new tools

It is possible to check any tool deterioration trends and confirm any differences between molding (lots).

Features
By utilizing IoT data and comparing waveforms,
it is possible to better understand various states during machining.
Use Case2

I want to utilize big data to detect machining and equipment abnormalities!

graph

Check the variation in machining trends

By plotting the same machining feature value on a histogram, it is possible to check for any variations in tool wear and better grasp any trends in machining abnormality data.

graph

Check the correlation between measurement values, inspection values, and feature values

It is possible to check the correlation between feature values and machining quality (measurement/inspection values) by plotting them on a scatter diagram. This can help you to detect any machining abnormalities by easily identifying outliers.

graph

Check the variation of feature values between devices

By comparing the feature value histograms of the same machining process between different equipment, it is possible to identify equipment differences and deterioration trends and easily detect equipment abnormalities.

Features
Statistical analysis utilizing big data allows you to easily identify machining and equipment abnormalities.
Use Case3

I want to utilize IoT data to more accurately predict machining quality!

Machine learning is applied to the relationship between IoT data and machining quality (measurement/inspection values) and a predictive model is automatically calculated.

graph

Automatic calculation of a predictive model

Through cross-validation of learning and validation data that has been divided into blocks, it is possible to confirm the validity from the predictive model's regression analysis results. This improves overall calculation accuracy.

graph

Cross-validation using learning data and validation data

It is possible to check the prediction accuracy by comparing the calculated predicted values of the model with the actual measurement values.

graph

Confirmation of prediction accuracy

Features The combination of machine learning and IoT data can be used to create a highly accurate quality predictive model which minimizes machining abnormalities and defects.
