CUTTING PROCESS PARAMETERS MEASUREMENTS BY MEANS OF COM-PUTER VISION

The objective of this work is to use computer vision techniques, adopting the experimental research as a methodological approach to measure cutting process parameters. This work will present the measurement of cutting time and the passive times during turning process. This proposal can be easily justified because cutting process optimization is a complex task. The measured results will be use to minimize costs and maximize production. All the measurements will be happen in shop floor online with the process evolution. The cutting time and the passive times involved during the cutting process is essential to allow the cutting parameters optimization.
