Tool failure is one of the main causes of failure in CNC machine tool machining. The real-time online monitoring technology of CNC machine tool is studied, which is helpful to improve the efficiency of failure-free operation of CNC machine tool and reduce the probability of scrap and equipment failure due to tool failure. Here, the correlation between inverter input current and tool wear condition was studied first, based on which a new method about how to calculate line current on inverter input side was defined, according to definition of current virtual value. Then, a real-time monitoring system for online tool wear is designed and developed. The experimental results show that the system can reflect the tool wear condition and remind to change tool timely.
