Abstract
In this paper, a cutting force model for self-propelled rotary tool (SPRT) cutting force prediction using artificial neural networks (ANN) has been introduced. The basis of this approach is to train and test the ANN model with cutting force samples of SPRT, from which their neurons relations are gradually extracted out. Then, ANN cutting force model is achieved by obtaining all weights for each layer. The inputs to the model consist of cutting velocity V, feed rate f, depth of cut ap and tool inclination angle λ, while the outputs are composed of thrust force Fx, radial force Fy and main cutting force Fz. It significantly reduces the complexity of modeling for SPRT cutting force, and employs non-structure operator parameters more conveniently. Considering the disadvantages of back propagation (BP) such as the convergence to local minima in the error space, developments have been achieved by applying hybrid of genetic algorithm (GA) and BP algorithm hence improve the performance of the ANN model. Validity and efficiency of the model were verified through a variety of SPRT cutting samples from our experiment tested in the cutting force model. The performance of the hybrid of GA–BP cutting force model is fairly satisfactory.
