Ball-end milling is an effective method for trial manufacture or small batch production of this type of gear, but the precision of the gear is usually low. In this research, the main sources of the errors of the gear, machining errors of the tooth profile and trace of the gear obtained were analyzed. The correction amounts for these errors are then determined by using a CNC gear tester. They are used to generate a new 3D-CAD model for gear machining with better nrecision.展开更多

In order to effectively control machining error, the method of integrating multivariate statistical process control (MSPC) and stream of variations (SoV) is proposed. Firstly, machining error is modeled by multi-operation approaches for part machining process. SoV is adopted to establish the mathematic model of the relationship between the error of upstream operations and the error of downstream operations. Here error sources not only include the influence of upstream operations but also include many of other error sources. The standard model and the predicted model about SoV are built respectively by whether the operation is done or not to satisfy different requests during part machining process. Secondly, the method of one-step ahead forecast error (OSFE) is used to eliminate autocorrelativity of the sample data from the SoV model, and the T2 control chart in MSPC is built to realize machining error detection according to the data characteristics of the above error model, which can judge whether the operation is out of control or not. If it is, then feedback is sent to the operations. The error model is modified by adjusting the operation out of control, and continually it is used to monitor operations. Finally, a machining instance containing two operations demonstrates the effectiveness of the machining error control method presented in this paper.展开更多

EM-ELM has good generalization ability. But many useless neurons in EM-ELM have little influences on the final network output, and reduce the efficiency of the algorithm. Based on the EM-ELM, an improved ABC algorithm is introduced to optimize the parameters of the hidden layer nodes, decrease the number of useless neurons. Network complexity is reduced. The efficiency of the algorithm is improved. The stability and convergence property of the proposed prediction method are proved. The proposed prediction method is used in the prediction of network traffic. In the simulation, the actual collected network traffic is used as the research object. Compared with other prediction methods, the simulation results show that the proposed prediction method reduces the training time of the prediction model, decreases the number of hidden layer nodes. The proposed prediction method has higher prediction accuracy and reliable performance. At the same time, the performance indicators are improved.展开更多
