In the context of intelligent manufacturing, machining is gradually moving towards high-precision, high-efficiency. As a new concept, ‘digital twin’ can help solve the problem of cutting data fusion between machine center in physical world and virtual models, accelerating intelligent and automated procedure. Signal monitoring of milling process is especially hard and effective real-time monitoring of temperature and vibration signals can help improve machining accuracy and reduce machining safety risks. Currently, embedding thermocouple into tool chip is the most common way to measure milling temperature, facing problems of unsteady signal transfer and long-term power supply. The main method for monitoring vibration is to install additional external sensors at machining system such as machine tools and workpieces. The acquired signals cannot meet the usage requirements because of various problems, such as poor consistency, low accuracy, and severe signal attenuation.In this paper, to carry out online temperature sensing, an end milling cutter with built-in thermocouple and an intelligent tool holder integrated with data processing devices are designed. To arrange thin thermocouple sensors, groove is processed on major flank of the milling tool as close to cutting edge as possible to get greatest proximity to the maximum cutting temperature zone; The mechanical assembly structure of handle is designed to integrate back-end data processing devices, including signal acquisition and ZigBee wireless transmission schemes; Based on electromagnetic induction, a self-powered plan is proposed using the rotational kinetic energy of the spindle to achieve passive signal monitoring of milling process. Based on temperature sensing intelligent handle, cutting experiments with different machining parameters were conducted to verify the feasibility. In this paper, ‘workpiece with pre-embedded thermocouples’ method is used to get the instantaneous maximum milling temperature as true value, then to modify the finite element analysis simulation model, and ultimately obtain the measurement error of the smart handle. The resolution of smart handle is 0.25 ℃, the range is 0~700 ℃, the update speed is 10Hz, and the average measurement error is 8.53%.An intelligent handle with embedded acceleration sensor is designed to get vibration signals with high quality. An internal cavity of BT40 handle is designed to install ICP vibration sensor, close to vibration source to reduce signal distortion; Signal processing device is optimized with highly integrated signal preconditioned scheme, high-speed acquisition and WiFi wireless transfer solutions, and reliable mechanical assembly of circuit boards and handle is achieved. Based on the designed intelligent vibration measuring handle, cutting experiments with different machining parameters were carried out to explore the disciplines of vibration signals, and a comparative experiment was conducted with traditional wired methods of headstock and workpiece vibration measurement. The excellent performance of the intelligent vibration measuring tool handle was demonstrated from multiple indicators. The resolution of the vibration measuring handle is 4.88 mg, with a range of -50 g~50 g, and an update speed exceeding 10 kHz.Research on tool wear state recognition is finished. Feature extraction from time domain, frequency domain and wavelet domain is explored and recognition model based om Fisher Discriminant and neural network is proposed, reaching an accuracy of 90.0%.In summary, a wireless passive tool holder with milling temperature sensing function and a smart vibration measuring handle with online processing and wireless transmission function are designed by different built-in sensors, which can be used to achieve in-situ online signal monitoring of milling process. Based on vibration sensing handle, a tool wear state recognition model is designed and optimized.
