| Abstract |
A thermal model has been implemented in industrial operations where reliability and
robustness are important. To fully exploit the potential and usefulness of the thermal model it is
necessary to tune the model to accommodate a wide range of wheel / workpiece combinations whilst
also satisfying different quality criteria. Implementation is relatively simple and thermal damage to
the workpiece can be avoided in most grinding operations. The monitoring process can also be used
to aid in optimising dressing intervals or as a tool to identify deteriorating conditions. It is important
to understand how to develop and implement strategies to satisfy different user needs. This paper
reports on issues associated with tuning the model. Guidance is provided to assist with
implementation of the thermal model either as a stand alone monitoring tool or as a fully integrated
embedded feature of an intelligent control system. The paper has been prepared in response to queries
on this matter from industrial practitioners. |
