[0053] S100 collects wear data of the cutting blades during the use of the processing equipment through sensors and uploads it to a sharing platform;
[0054] This step utilizes advanced sensor technology, enabling more real-time and precise monitoring of blade wear. This provides reliable data for proactive maintenance and replacement planning, thereby reducing the risk of production failures such as sudden blade breakage. Automated data cleaning and standardization processes ensure data quality and consistency, reduce human error, and improve the efficiency and accuracy of data processing. Standardized data formats support data compatibility and exchange between different brands and models of machinery, achieving interoperability of equipment data.
[0055] This step, through the establishment of registration, authentication, and access control mechanisms, ensures the security of data access and the protection of data privacy on the data sharing platform. The platform's data upload and download interfaces lower the technical barrier for users, enabling even non-technical personnel to easily manipulate data. Data is presented in chart form, making complex data more intuitive and easier to understand, helping users quickly comprehend the data and make appropriate decisions. The implemented data update mechanism and regular maintenance maintain the timeliness and accuracy of the data, enhancing the platform's reliability.
[0056] This step integrates advanced data analytics and machine learning algorithms to provide blade wear prediction services. This helps users predict blade life and optimize replacement schedules, reducing unexpected downtime. Leveraging cloud technology, the blade wear data sharing platform can integrate data from multiple plants, providing macro-level data analysis to uncover broader manufacturing trends and insights. The platform can automatically generate wear reports and maintenance logs, providing users with historical data and trend analysis to help them understand long-term wear patterns and cost-effectiveness.

Integrated online collaboration tools enable engineers, suppliers, and managers to communicate and collaborate in real time regarding blade use and maintenance. Integrating these functionalities into the blade wear data sharing platform module not only enhances existing production management systems but also drives the transformation towards smart manufacturing and Industry 4.0.
[0057] S200 utilizes data from a shared platform to evaluate the performance and durability of blades based on wear data, establishes a blade wear life model, conducts performance evaluations on blades of different brands and materials, and generates an evaluation report.
[0058] This step acquires data from a cutting tool wear data sharing platform, including but not limited to workpiece material, cutting speed, feed rate, depth of cut, coolant usage, wear type, wear amount, wear rate, service life, cutting tool material, cutting tool type, and specifications. Missing and outlier values are handled, and data standardization and normalization are performed to ensure data quality and lay a solid foundation for subsequent analysis. The processed data is stored in a unified data warehouse for easy analysis and modeling. Features, such as wear rate, wear type, and machining parameters, are extracted from the raw data, and feature selection and dimensionality reduction are performed to improve model training efficiency and predictive performance. Time series analysis is conducted on the cutting tool wear data to capture the dynamic changes in cutting tool wear and improve the model's predictive capabilities.
[0059] This step employs various machine learning models (such as linear regression, decision trees, random forests, support vector machines, and neural networks) for modeling, selecting the optimal model. The model is trained using training data, its parameters are optimized, and cross-validation and other methods are used to evaluate its generalization ability. Finally, the model's predictive performance is improved through hyperparameter tuning, feature selection, and ensemble learning.
[0060] This step involves collecting and analyzing a large amount of blade wear data. The system can then perform blade performance evaluation in a data-driven manner, significantly improving the scientific rigor and accuracy of the evaluation and reducing the impact of human factors. Utilizing advanced machine learning technology, a highly efficient predictive model is established, accurately predicting blade wear life and providing a reliable basis for blade selection, procurement, and replacement during the production process. By monitoring and analyzing blade wear data in real time, the system can dynamically adjust blade usage strategies, promptly identify and respond to anomalies, optimize the production process, and reduce production costs. Integrating blade performance evaluation with cost control and production management systems enables automated management and optimization of the entire process, improving production efficiency and reducing manual intervention. By building a knowledge base, the system can accumulate and share experience and knowledge gained during blade usage, enhancing the overall technical level and decision-making capabilities of the factory and bringing long-term competitive advantages to the enterprise.
[0061] S300 constructs an optimized production cost model for blades, establishing the relationship between blade wear and production costs. It analyzes the impact of blade wear on costs, and based on the analysis results, formulates optimization strategies for blade procurement, use, and replacement. It integrates cost control strategies into the production management system, automates the execution of optimization strategies, and monitors the effectiveness of strategy execution.
[0062] This step involves acquiring wear data from a blade wear data sharing platform and cost data from ERP or other financial systems. Missing and outlier values are handled to ensure data integrity and accuracy. The cleaned data is stored in a data warehouse for subsequent analysis and modeling. Feature variables highly correlated with blade wear and cost are selected from the dataset, such as blade unit price, total blade usage time, and labor cost rate. Statistical methods (such as Pearson correlation coefficient and Spearman correlation coefficient) are used to analyze the correlation between features and cost, identifying key cost drivers. Time series analysis and regression analysis are used to analyze the trend relationship between blade wear and cost, identifying patterns of cost change. Cluster analysis and classification analysis are used to identify cost change characteristics under different wear patterns, providing a basis for strategy formulation.
[0063] This step verifies the accuracy of the optimization model using actual production data, ensuring it accurately reflects the relationship between blade wear and cost. It assesses the model's applicability and operability in a real production environment, ensuring the strategy's feasibility. Based on the cost model, it optimizes the blade procurement strategy, including procurement timing and quantity. It determines the optimal blade lifespan to reduce unnecessary replacements and cost increases. A blade replacement strategy is developed to ensure blades are replaced at the optimal time, minimizing downtime and production costs. Simulation experiments are conducted to evaluate the potential economic benefits of the designed strategy, identifying potential problems and areas for improvement. Based on the simulation results, the effectiveness and benefits of the strategy are evaluated, ensuring it achieves the expected cost savings. Based on the strategy evaluation results, a detailed strategy implementation plan is developed to ensure smooth implementation. The implementation plan is integrated into the existing production management system to automate strategy execution. A strategy monitoring mechanism is implemented to track strategy execution results, adjusting the strategy and implementation plan based on actual feedback to ensure continuous optimization.
[0064] This step, through in-depth analysis of blade wear and cost data, develops optimization strategies based on a data-driven approach, improving the scientific rigor and accuracy of decision-making. The cost control optimization strategy development module considers not only blade procurement costs but also replacement costs, quality costs, and downtime costs, achieving comprehensive cost control. Through real-time monitoring and analysis, the system can dynamically adjust optimization strategies based on actual conditions, ensuring the effectiveness and adaptability of the strategies. Automating the execution of optimization strategies reduces manual intervention, improves execution efficiency, and allows for timely problem detection and feedback through monitoring mechanisms, continuously optimizing the strategies. By implementing optimization strategies, enterprises can significantly improve production efficiency and achieve long-term economic benefits and competitive advantages.

[0072] The specific formula for the blade wear life model is as follows:
[0073] y = β0 + β1x1 + β2x2 + ... + β n x n +ε
[0074] Where y represents the wear life of the blade, x1, x2…x n This indicates the characteristic workpiece material, cutting speed, feed rate, depth of cut, coolant usage, wear type, wear amount, wear rate, service life, insert material, insert type, and insert specification in the above wear data. β0 is the intercept, and β1, β2…β n ε represents the coefficients of each feature, indicating the degree of influence of each feature on the wear life of the blade; ε is the error term, representing the unobserved variation in the data.

It analyzes the impact of blade wear on costs, and based on the analysis results, formulates optimization strategies for blade procurement, use, and replacement. The cost control strategies are integrated into the production management system, automating the execution of these optimization strategies and monitoring their effectiveness. (See flowchart for example.) Figure 4 As shown, it specifically includes:

[0077] The specific formula for the blade optimization production cost model is as follows:
[0078] C total =(P tool ·Dtool / y)+(T change ·L labour ·N change (y))+C quality (y)+(T downtime ·L downtime )
[0079] C total It optimizes the production cost of blades;
[0080] P tool That's the price per blade;
[0081] D tool / y represents the total blade usage time required;
[0082] y represents the blade wear life;

[0085] N change (y) represents the number of blade replacements calculated based on the blade life y;
[0086] C quality (y) represents the machining quality-related costs based on the blade life y;

The implementation plan is then integrated into the existing production management system, a strategy monitoring mechanism is implemented, the strategy implementation results are tracked, and the strategy and implementation plan are adjusted based on feedback.
[0090] Figure 5 The knowledge base provided in this embodiment of the invention includes a flowchart detailing the specific steps involved in constructing the knowledge base and providing users with decision-making suggestions regarding blade selection, procurement timing, and usage cycle. Figure 5 As shown, the construction of the knowledge base, which provides users with decision-making suggestions regarding blade selection, procurement timing, and usage cycle, specifically includes:
[0091] S410 integrates wear data, cost data, and blade performance evaluation results, extracts decision rules from the data, structures the extracted rules and patterns, encodes knowledge base content using appropriate data structures and storage technologies, and develops decision support tools.
[0092] In step S410, the steps of integrating wear data, cost data, and blade performance evaluation results to extract decision rules from the data are used to quantify the comprehensive performance index of the blade, so as to provide decision support for blade selection, procurement timing, and usage cycle.
[0093] The functional expression for the overall performance index of the blade is as follows:
[0094]
[0095] Where F represents the overall performance index of the blade, P represents the blade performance evaluation score, D represents the blade durability factor, and W represents the current wear of the blade. max C indicates the maximum allowable wear of the cutting blade. ceff C represents the blade utilization efficiency coefficient. init C represents the initial purchase cost of the blade. maint This indicates the maintenance cost of the blade.
[0096] As a supplementary explanation, in the functional expression of the above-mentioned blade comprehensive performance index, the blade comprehensive performance index F is used to evaluate the overall performance of the blade. The blade performance evaluation score P′ can be quantified based on a series of performance tests (such as cutting speed, accuracy, durability, etc.). The blade durability factor D′ can be estimated based on historical data and wear curves, representing the blade's durability under expected usage conditions. The maximum allowable wear amount W of the blade... max Exceeding this value usually means the blade needs to be replaced. For the blade efficiency coefficient C... ceff Consider the ratio of the actual efficiency to the theoretical efficiency of the blade during use.
[0097] Furthermore, P′×D′ represents a comprehensive consideration of the blade's basic performance and durability. (1-W / W) max ) is a wear factor used to quantify the remaining service life of the cutting tool. As the wear amount W increases, the wear factor gradually decreases, thus affecting the overall performance index of the cutting tool. C ceff The efficiency of the blade during use is taken into account; if the blade's efficiency decreases during use, this coefficient will decrease accordingly. Denominator C init +C maint The total cost of the blades was considered, including initial purchase costs and subsequent maintenance costs. Cost factors directly impact the overall performance index; higher costs result in a lower index.
[0098] By using a functional expression for the overall performance index of the cutting tool, a quantitative overall performance index F can be obtained. This index comprehensively considers the tool's performance, durability, wear, and cost factors, and can support decisions regarding tool selection, procurement timing, and service life. When the F value falls below a certain preset threshold, it may mean that the tool needs to be replaced or repaired.
[0099] The S420 monitors the performance of decision support tools, regularly collects user feedback on tool usage, and provides feedback based on the latest blade wear and cost control data, as well as usage and effectiveness.
