Abstract
AbstractVariation propagation modelling in multistage machining processes through use of analytical approaches has been widely investigated for the purposes of dimension prediction and variation source identification. Yet the variation prediction of complex features is non-trivial task to model mathematically. Moreover, the application of the variation propagation approaches and associated variation source identification techniques using Skin Model Shapes is unclear. This paper proposes a multilayer shallow neural network regression approach to predict geometrical deviations of parts given manufacturing errors. The neural network is trained on a simulated data, generated from machining simulation of a point cloud of a part. Further, given a point cloud data of a machined feature, the source of variation can be identified by optimally matching the deviation patterns of the actual surface with that of shallow neural network generated surface. To demonstrate the method, a two-stage machining process and a virtual part that has planar, cylindrical and torus features was considered. The geometric characteristics of machined features and the sources variation could be predicted at an error of 1% and 4.25%, respectively. This work extends the application of Skin Model Shapes in variation propagation analysis in multistage manufacturing.
