Proposal For The Wear Analysis Of Metallic Material Cutting Tools
Albert Miyer Suarez Castrillón , Alba Yajaira Sanchez Delgado , Sir-Alexci Suarez Castrillon
Abstract
A research is presented to perform a wear analysis of industrial cutting tools, dedicated to the conversion of flat metal-mechanical materials in industrial parts, detailing the production costs, time, functions, training and bibliographic material necessary to implement it as a model to be followed in this type of companies. The wear analysis will be carried out by means of artificial intelligence techniques which will allow to know the useful life time of the blades used in hydraulic shears and benders. The aim is to reduce the costs and the final production time of the parts, as well as to improve the quality by making adequate cuts and bends. The results will allow to know when preventive or predictive maintenance should be done, avoiding the subjective value that an operator can give, which can cause disturbances in the production line when errors are detected in the finished parts. A review of the literature is carried out to determine the factors that affect tool wear, and suggestions are made as to how the cutting and bending process can be improved.
