Description
Summary:Accurately identifying tool wear states with variable cutting parameters can improve machining quality and efficiency. However, existing wear state recognition methods based on unsupervised domain adaptation mostly employ the knowledge transfer learning strategy in a single source domain. They cannot fully utilize the sensor data distribution information of multiple cutting parameters, hindering recognition performance improvement. Thus, this paper proposes a wear-state recognition method for variable cutting parameters based on multi-source unsupervised domain adaptation. First, non-stationary Transformer encoders extract non-stationary common features; then, sliced Wasserstein distance-based domain-specific feature distribution alignment and classifier output alignment scale down the domain shift and make multi-domain distribution synchronous alignment less complex. Finally, the milling experiments with variable cutting parameters are conducted to validate the recognition performance of the proposed method.
