Popis: Vibrations are a common issue in the machining and metal-cutting sector, in which the spindle vibration is primarily responsible for the poor surface quality of workpieces. The consequences range from the need to manually finish the metal surfaces, resulting in time-consuming and costly operations, to high scrap rates, with the corresponding waste of time and resources. The main problem of conventional solutions is that they address the suppression of machine vibrations separately from the quality control process. In this novel proposed framework, we combine advanced vibration-monitoring methods with the AI-driven prediction of the quality indicators to address this problem, increasing the quality, productivity, and efficiency of the process. The evaluation shows that the number of rejected parts, time devoted to reworking and manual finishing, and costs are reduced considerably. The framework adopts a generalized methodology to tackle the condition monitoring and quality control processes. This allows for a broader adaptation of the solutions in different CNC machines with unique setups and configurations, a challenge that other data-driven approaches in the literature have found difficult to overcome.
