A Method for Identifying the Wear State of Grinding Wheels Based on VMD Denoising and AO-CNN-LSTM

Abstract

Monitoring the condition of the grinding wheel in real-time during the grinding process is crucial as it directly impacts the precision and quality of the workpiece. Deep learning technology plays a vital role in analyzing the changes in sensor signals and identifying grinding wheel wear during the grinding process. Therefore, this paper innovatively proposes a grinding wheel wear recognition method based on Variational Mode Decomposition (VMD) denoising and Aquila Optimizer—Convolutional Neural Network—Long Short-Term Memory (AO-CNN-LSTM). The paper utilizes Acoustic Emission (AE) signals generated during grinding to identify the condition of the grinding wheel. To address noise interference, the study introduces the VMD algorithm for denoising the sample dataset, enhancing the effectiveness of neural network training. Subsequently, the dataset is fed into the designed Convolutional Neural Network—Long Short-Term Memory (CNN-LSTM) structure with AO-optimized parameters. Experimental results demonstrate that this method achieves high accuracy and performance.
