[0002] Anisotropic composite material parts are usually processed into the final shape by edge trimming, milling and drilling processes, and meet the surface quality and assembly requirements. Due to the abrasiveness of CFRP (carbon fiber reinforced composite material) itself and the processing mode of dry cutting, tool wear increases rapidly during the processing of composite material parts. The rapid growth of tool wear leads to the fact that the processing quality of parts cannot meet the requirements, including surface damage such as fiber protrusion, delamination and poor surface roughness. The unqualified surface processing quality of anisotropic composite material parts will lead to poor assembly precision and low strength of aircraft wings and other components, and even affect the performance of the aircraft.

[0003] At present, due to the anisotropy and inhomogeneity of composite materials and other characteristics, the monitoring data of the processing process presents the characteristics of multi-distribution and strong disturbance, which leads to the difficulty in extracting abnormal fluctuation characteristics and accurately identifying abnormal fluctuations in the processing process.
