A PNN self-learning tool breakage detection system in end milling operations

- The system provides a function of on-line real-time cutting tool monitoring.
- The system applies PNN to shorten the training time to achieve the objective of real-time learning in manufacturing.
- The property of PNN prevents the detection system from Type II error to ensure the quality of product.
- The self-learning ability enables the system to achieve higher accuracy of the system.
