Estimation of the Time Constant of Precision Plunge Grinding in Dwell Period Based on Acoustic Emission Measurement

Abstract

Our previous work presented a method for estimating the time constant of grinding system in infeed period. To monitor the precision cylindrical plunge grinding process in dwell period, an estimation of the time constant of grinding system in the dwell period, using acoustic emission signal, is presented in this paper. Acoustic emission signals generated during precision grinding are sensitivity and present challenges for accurate and reliable process monitoring. Experiments demonstrate the results of the acoustic emission sensing approach in estimating the time constant in the dwell period of cylindrical plunge grinding.
