Description
Summary:The presented research was aimed at finding a suitable tool and procedure for monitoring undercuts or other problems such as cutting without abrasive or inappropriate parameters of the jet during the abrasive water jet (AWJ) cutting of hard-machined materials. Plates of structural steel RSt 37-2 of different thickness were cut through by AWJ with such traverse speeds that cuts of various qualities were obtained. Vibrations of the workpiece were monitored by three accelerometers mounted on the workpiece by a special block that was designed for this purpose. After detecting and recording vibration signals through the National Instruments (NI) program Signal Express, we processed this data by means of the LabVIEW Sound and Vibration Toolkit. Statistical evaluation of data was performed, and RMS was identified as the parameter most suitable for online vibration monitoring. We focus on the analysis of the relationship between the RMS and traverse speed.
