Prediction of Machining Conditions from EDMed Surface Using CNN

초록

CNN is one of the deep learning technologies useful for image-based pattern recognition and classification. For machining processes, this technique can be used to predict machining parameters and surface roughness. In electrical discharge machining (EDM), the machined surface is covered with many craters, the shape of which depends on the workpiece material and pulse parameters. In this study, CNN was applied to predict EDM parameters including capacitor, workpiece material, and surface roughness. After machining three metals (brass, stainless steel, and cemented carbide) with different discharge energies, images of machined surfaces were collected using a scanning electron microscope (SEM) and a digital microscope. Surface roughness of each surface was then measured. The CNN model was used to predict machining parameters and surface roughness.
