[0037] The gantry numerical control milling machine machining method provided by the embodiment of the adaptive intelligent tool path planning comprises the following steps:

[0038] S1: Obtain three-dimensional model data of a workpiece, perform feature recognition and analysis on the three-dimensional model data, determine the features to be machined of the workpiece, including planes, curved surfaces, holes and grooves;

[0039] S2: According to the features to be machined, in combination with a machining process knowledge base, automatically match suitable tool types, tool sizes and initial cutting parameters, the machining process knowledge base stores tool and cutting parameter data corresponding to different materials and different features;

[0040] S3: Based on an adaptive algorithm, real-time collection of state information of the gantry numerical control milling machine in the machining process, the state information includes cutting force, tool vibration, spindle power and machining temperature, real-time adjustment of the tool path and the cutting parameters according to the state information to optimize the machining process.

[0041] Through three-dimensional model analysis to realize automatic feature recognition, reduce manual intervention and improve machining preparation efficiency; through matching of tools and parameters by the process knowledge base, the rationality of the initial machining scheme can be ensured, and the trial and error cost can be effectively reduced; through real-time state monitoring and adaptive adjustment, the machining process is optimized, and the machining precision and surface quality can be improved.

[0042] Specifically, in the embodiment, the adaptive algorithm is used to real-time adjust the tool path and the cutting parameters, specifically: when the cutting force exceeds a preset threshold, the feed speed is reduced or the cutting depth is reduced; when the tool vibration amplitude exceeds the allowable range, the curvature of the tool path is adjusted or the cutting direction is changed; when the spindle power abnormally fluctuates, the cutting parameter combination is optimized.

[0043] Through cutting force threshold control, tool overload can be avoided, tool life can be prolonged, and machining errors caused by uneven stress can be reduced; through vibration control, surface roughness can be improved, and machining defects caused by resonance or abnormal vibration can be prevented; through spindle power optimization, energy consumption can be reduced, machine overload can be avoided, and machining stability can be improved.

[0044] The adaptive algorithm includes a multi-parameter collaborative optimization equation for calculating a real-time adjustment factor, and the equation expression is as follows:

[0045]

[0046] Wherein:

[0047] k(t) is a machining parameter adjustment factor at time t, used to correct the feed speed or the cutting depth, and the value range is close to 1;

[0048] α is a preset adjustment coefficient, and the value range is (0, 1).

[0049] w i (t) is the dynamic weight of the i-th state parameter at time t, which satisfies

[0050] x i (t) is the real-time collected state parameter (including cutting force, tool vibration, spindle power);

[0051] x i,th is the safety threshold of the corresponding parameter, which triggers the adjustment of the machining parameter when it is exceeded;

[0052] norm(x) is the normalization function, defined as:

[0053] At the same time, the dynamic weight update equation is

[0054] where β is the learning rate, which controls the step size of weight update to avoid oscillation in the optimization process;

[0055] e(t) is the machining error feedback value, which comes from the workpiece surface roughness detection or size deviation measurement.

[0056] Suppose the state parameters collected at a certain time are:

[0057] Cutting force F(t) = 1.2F_th;

[0058] Tool vibration A(t) = 0.9A_th;

[0059] Spindle power P(t) = 1.1P_th;

[0060] The preset parameter α = 0.6, the initial weights w_1 = 0.4, w_2 = 0.3, w_3 = 0.3, and the learning rate β = 0.1.

[0061] 1. Calculate the normalized deviation:

[0062]

[0063] 2. Calculate the adjustment factor:

[0064] k(t) = 1-0.6·(0.4·0.2+0.3·0+0.3·0.1) = 1-0.6·0.11 = 0.934

[0065] That is, the feed speed adjustment is 93.4% of the original value;

[0066] 3. Update the weights (assuming machining error e(t) = 0.05):

[0067] w1(t+1) = 0.4 + 0.1 · 0.05 · 0.2 = 0.401,

[0068] w3(t+1) = 0.3 + 0.1 · 0.05 · 0.1 = 0.3005

[0069] The total weight is kept at 1 by normalization.

[0070] Technical effects of this equation:

[0071] Multi-parameter collaborative optimization: By weighted summation of cutting force, vibration, power and other parameters, avoid optimization deviation caused by single parameter adjustment, improve machining stability.

[0072] Adaptive learning ability: Dynamic weight update mechanism enables the system to automatically optimize the influence weight of each parameter according to historical machining data, adapt to different materials and working conditions.

[0073] Precision and efficiency balance: Adjustment factor k(t) real-time correction of machining parameters, reduce tool wear and machine tool loss under the premise of ensuring precision, such as automatically reducing the feed speed when cutting force overload, to avoid tool collapse or workpiece scrap.

[0074] Process iterative evolution: The weight update equation continuously optimizes the control strategy based on machining error feedback, enabling the system to accumulate experience in batch production and reduce manual parameter adjustment workload.

[0075] Working principle of the equation:

[0076] 1. Data acquisition and preprocessing: Real-time acquisition of cutting force, vibration, spindle power and other data by sensors, comparison with preset threshold and calculation of deviation by norm function;

[0077] 2. Adjustment factor calculation: The multi-parameter collaborative optimization equation calculates k(t) according to the deviation and dynamic weight, and is used to correct the feed speed or cutting depth.

[0078] 3. Machining parameter adjustment: The numerical control system dynamically updates the tool path parameters according to k(t), such as v new = v old · k(t);

[0079] 4. Error feedback and learning: After machining, the error e(t) is obtained through quality detection, and the weight update equation is used to optimize the parameter weight for the next machining;

[0080] 5. Iterative optimization: The above process is continuously iterated in each machining, forming a closed-loop control of "monitoring-adjustment-learning", gradually improving the adaptability of the machining scheme.

[0081] Currently, traditional adaptive machining usually adopts single parameter threshold control (such as adjusting only cutting force), without considering the coupling effect of multiple physical quantities; the equation realizes the collaborative optimization of multiple parameters through weighted summation and dynamic weight updating, has better practicability, and the equation parameters can be calibrated through actual machining data, are suitable for different materials and workpiece characteristics, and have stronger engineering adaptability and popularization value compared with the prior art; in addition, the equation introduces the weight iteration mechanism in machine learning into numerical control machining parameter adjustment, so that the system has autonomous optimization capability, solves the pain point of traditional methods that rely on manual experience for parameter adjustment, and significantly improves the intelligent level of machining.

[0082] Specifically, in the embodiment: when determining the tool path, a layered partition strategy is adopted, the machining area of the workpiece is divided into multiple sub-areas, the tool path is planned for different sub-areas respectively, and a transition path is arranged at the junction of the tool paths of adjacent sub-areas to reduce the idle travel and sudden stop and rapid movement of the tool.

[0083] The layered partition strategy shortens the idle travel of the tool, reduces the non-cutting time, and can improve the machining efficiency; the transition path design avoids sudden stop and rapid movement of the tool, can reduce the machine tool wear and tear, and improves the machining smoothness.

[0084] Specifically, in the embodiment: the machining process knowledge base is continuously updated and optimized through a machine learning algorithm, the machine learning algorithm is based on actual machining data including machining quality feedback and tool life data, and adjusts and perfects the tool and cutting parameter data in the knowledge base.

[0085] The knowledge base is continuously optimized through machine learning, so that the machining scheme is continuously improved with experience accumulation, and can adapt to new materials and complex features; the data-driven parameter adjustment improves the machining consistency, and can reduce the quality fluctuation caused by human experience difference.

[0086] Specifically, in the embodiment: when machining a complex curved surface, an equal residual height-based tool path generation algorithm is adopted, the tool travel and step are automatically adjusted according to the curvature change of the curved surface, so as to ensure that the machined curved surface has uniform surface quality.

[0087] The equal residual height algorithm is used to ensure the uniformity of curved surface machining, reduces the subsequent polishing process, and can improve the machining precision of complex curved surfaces; by automatically adjusting the travel and step to adapt to the curvature of the curved surface, overcutting or undercutting can be avoided, and the curved surface forming quality is improved.

[0088] Specifically, in the embodiment: it also includes virtual simulation before machining, a simulation model is used to simulate the machining process of the gantry numerical control milling machine, the planned tool path is verified and optimized, potential interference problems and machining defects are found in advance, and the tool path is adjusted.

[0089] Through virtual simulation to find interference problems in advance, avoid collision accidents in actual processing, can reduce the risk of equipment damage; through path optimization to reduce the number of trial cutting, shorten the production cycle, can reduce material waste.

[0090] Specifically, in this embodiment: when the tool wears or breaks during processing, real-time detection is performed through the tool state monitoring system, the tool state monitoring system judges the wear or breakage of the tool based on sensor data including vibration signals and current signals, and once an abnormality is detected, the tool is automatically replaced, and the tool path and cutting parameters are re-optimized according to the characteristics of the new tool.

[0091] Through real-time monitoring of tool state to find wear / breakage in time, avoid workpiece scrap, can improve the reliability of processing; use automatic tool changing and parameter re-optimization to reduce downtime, improve machine tool utilization.

[0092] Specifically, in this embodiment: when processing multiple identical or similar workpieces, a workpiece processing template is established, the tool path, cutting parameters and self-adaptive adjustment strategy in the first processing process are stored as a template, and the template can be directly called during subsequent processing, and fine tuning is performed according to the small differences of actual workpieces, to improve processing efficiency.

[0093] Using template processing to reduce the amount of repeated programming work, shorten the preparation time of multi-piece processing, can improve batch production efficiency; through the fine tuning mechanism to ensure the consistency of similar workpiece processing, can reduce the operation threshold.

[0094] Specifically, in this embodiment: the gantry numerical control milling machine is equipped with an intelligent control system, the intelligent control system integrates a processing technology knowledge base, a self-adaptive algorithm module, a tool state monitoring module and a virtual simulation module, and the modules communicate and work together to realize comprehensive intelligent control of the processing process.

[0095] Through the intelligent control system integrating multiple modules to work together, realize the automatic control of the whole process of processing, can reduce the manual intervention; through the data intercommunication between the modules to optimize the decision logic, can improve the system response speed and overall performance.

[0096] Specifically, in this embodiment: during processing, the remaining processing time is predicted in real time in combination with the removal rate model of the workpiece material, and the tool path and cutting parameters are dynamically adjusted according to the actual processing progress and remaining time to ensure that the processing task is completed on time and the processing quality is guaranteed

[0097] Through processing time prediction and dynamic adjustment to ensure timely completion of tasks, optimize production plans, suitable for orders sensitive to delivery dates; use the quality and efficiency balancing mechanism to shorten the processing cycle under the premise of ensuring accuracy.

[0098] In summary, the adaptive intelligent tool path planning gantry CNC milling machine processing method provided by the embodiment has the following advantages:

[0099] High precision: Multi-dimensional adaptive adjustment and real-time monitoring reduce processing errors and improve the forming precision of complex workpieces.
