Low-cost piezoelectric lead zirconate titanate (PZT) diaphragm transducers have attracted increasing attention as effective sensing devices, based on the electromechanical impedance (EMI) principle, for applications in ...

This paper presents an approach for impedance-based sensor monitoring of dressing tool condition in grinding by using the electromechanical impedance (EMI) technique. This method was introduced in Part 1 of this work and ...

The grinding operation gives workpieces their final finish, minimizing surface roughness through the interaction between the abrasive grains of a tool (grinding wheel) and the workpiece. However, excessive grinding wheel ...

Cognitive modeling of tool wear progress is employed to obtain a dependable trend of tool wear curves for optimal utilization of tool life and productivity improvement, while preserving the surface integrity of the ground ...

The main difficulty in the grinding process is to identify the correct moment to dress the grinding wheel. Therefore, the cutting tool (grinding wheel) must be monitored. In this context, an innovative technique was developed ...
