Abstract
Computer numerically controlled (CNC) machines have evolved to adapt to increasing technological and industrial requirements. To cover these needs, new generation machines have to perform monitoring strategies by incorporating multiple sensors. Since in most of applications the online Processing of the variables is essential, the use of smart sensors is necessary. The contribution of this work is the development of a wireless network platform of reconfigurable smart sensors for CNC machine applications complying with the measurement requirements of new generation CNC machines. Four different smart sensors are put under test in the network and their corresponding signal processing techniques are implemented in a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA)-based sensor node.

The predominant factor which drove the initial development of CNC machines was the need for increased productivity. The necessity of machining ever smaller components and to comply with the tougher standards that limit the number of defects in these components, requires CNC machines to not only increase their precision, speed and accuracy but also to maintain a high productivity. To cover these needs, new generation machines have to perform monitoring strategies to allow autonomous self-optimization that can be done through the integration of control-process strategies into the machine tool control architecture [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b1-sensors-10-07263">1</xref>]. These capabilities are achieved by incorporating multiple sensors [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b2-sensors-10-07263">2</xref>] for online measurement and processing that allow remote monitoring and intelligent maintenance for production maximization [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b3-sensors-10-07263">3</xref>]. The installation of these sensors should not affect the machining process [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b4-sensors-10-07263">4</xref>], therefore, the incorporation and use of a wireless sensor network is desirable.</p><p>In order to provide some of the desired features and functionalities, new generation CNC machines require the measurement of different variables that are useful for obtaining, in a direct or indirect form, the required information for diagnosing the machine’s operational condition and improving the machining process [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b1-sensors-10-07263">1</xref>]. The most common-measured variables on a CNC machine include, among others, vibration, current, force and acoustic emissions. Different methodologies have been proposed to obtain different parameters or features of the process, as well as the tool and the machine conditions in general. Some early works that use the previously mentioned variables in their methodologies are Albarbar, <italic>et al.</italic> [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b5-sensors-10-07263">5</xref>], Wright, <italic>et al</italic>. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b6-sensors-10-07263">6</xref>], Malekian <italic>et al.</italic> [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b7-sensors-10-07263">7</xref>], Rangel-Magdaleno, <italic>et al.</italic> [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b8-sensors-10-07263">8</xref>], Vela-Martinez <italic>et al</italic>. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b9-sensors-10-07263">9</xref>] that use vibrations for monitoring the electromechanical condition on the CNC machine, Romero-Troncoso <italic>et al</italic>. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b10-sensors-10-07263">10</xref>], Franco-Gasca <italic>et al</italic>. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b11-sensors-10-07263">11</xref>], Li <italic>et al</italic>. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b12-sensors-10-07263">12</xref>] that use current for detecting the cutting force and the tool wear, Huang <italic>et al</italic>. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b13-sensors-10-07263">13</xref>], Ertnuc and Oysu [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b14-sensors-10-07263">14</xref>], Shao <italic>et al</italic>. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b15-sensors-10-07263">15</xref>] that use force measurements for monitoring the cutting force, Alonso and Salgado [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b4-sensors-10-07263">4</xref>], Salgado and Alonso [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b16-sensors-10-07263">16</xref>] use acoustic emissions for tool-wear monitoring. Likewise, there are other works related to the dynamic parameters, such as Morales-Velazquez <italic>et al</italic>. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b17-sensors-10-07263">17</xref>] and Petrella and Tursini [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b18-sensors-10-07263">18</xref>]. By utilizing the dynamic motion parameters, it is possible to optimize the piece machining, minimize the tool wear, and increase the precision of the positioning platforms for micro-machining applications [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b7-sensors-10-07263">7</xref>], where different techniques have been studied, such as those using interferometry, or those using position sensing detectors (PSD) in order to validate the resolution and compensate for errors [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b19-sensors-10-07263">19</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b20-sensors-10-07263">20</xref>]. Since in most of the applications the online processing of the variables is essential, the use of smart sensors is necessary [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b21-sensors-10-07263">21</xref>]. Smart sensors have been developed and used for several applications in different works, as in those of Wang and Jianu [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b22-sensors-10-07263">22</xref>], Rangel-Magdaleno, <italic>et al.</italic> [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b8-sensors-10-07263">8</xref>], Petrella and Tursini [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b18-sensors-10-07263">18</xref>], Ramamurthy <italic>et al</italic>. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b23-sensors-10-07263">23</xref>] and Son <italic>et al</italic>. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b24-sensors-10-07263">24</xref>]. However, new generation CNC machines require the measurement of different variables at the same time; therefore, a wireless network is necessary for solving the necessity of incorporating multiple sensors with specific processing capabilities.</p><p>Some sensor networks based on different wireless technologies have been developed, as in the case of Salvadori <italic>et al</italic>. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b25-sensors-10-07263">25</xref>], who proposed a system that uses two hardware topologies responsible for signal acquisition, processing, and transmission; one is based on an intelligent sensor module, and the other is a module for remote data acquisition. Wireless communication is accomplished through a transceiver using Gaussian Frequency-Shift Keying (GFSK) modulation in the 2.4 GHz band with a transmission rate of 1 Mbps, but it uses a custom-made protocol. Son <italic>et al.</italic> [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b24-sensors-10-07263">24</xref>] proposed a wireless smart sensor network using the WiFi protocol which is based on the IEEE 802.11b standard, in which the communication is done through a commercial module that is used as a wireless bridge for the transmission of sensor data. On the other hand, Ramamurthy <italic>et al</italic>. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b23-sensors-10-07263">23</xref>] present a generic platform using WiFi and Bluetooth wireless protocols; the smart sensor node is composed of three layers in order to make the system more flexible and portable, yet, the resulting size makes it impossible to use the system in applications where the sensor has to be mounted in a limited area. Although the necessity of measuring a large number of variables in CNC machines is latent, most of the developed works have the limitation of incorporating multiple sensors on the machines; others do not have online processing capacity. Some smart sensors that allow this capacity have been developed, but they focus on the processing of a single variable. Other works that propose wireless sensor networks meet the bandwidth requirements, but with high power consumption, and because of the protocol used, the number of nodes can be insufficient for some CNC machine applications.</p><p>The contribution of this work is the development of a wireless network platform of smart sensors for CNC machine applications based on the IEEE 802.15.4 standard to comply with the measurement requirements of new generation machines, which are low power consumption and high scalability to allow the incorporation of a large number of network nodes. The sensor node prototype has a small size and low cost, and it consists of two parts: the wireless protocol and hardware signal processing (HSP). Both parts require high processing capabilities, so an FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) implementation provides the characteristic of reconfigurability to the sensor node allowing it to be configured in order to carry out a specific task, or reconfigured on-demand to carry out other tasks. In the case of the proposed network, this capability is available for each smart sensor, allowing multiple-signal processing in parallel, and making it suitable for online applications. In this work, four different smart sensors are put under test in the network and their corresponding signal processing techniques are implemented in the FPGA sensor node: (1) accelerometer-based vibrations monitoring, (2) sensorless jerk monitoring using an adaptive antisymmetric high-order FIR (finite impulse response) filter, 3) FPGA-based fused smart-sensor for tool-wear area quantitative estimation in CNC machine inserts, and 4) PSD-based micropositioning measurement.</p></sec><sec><label>2.</label><title>Background</title><sec><label>2.1.</label><title>Communication Protocols</title><p>For the development of a wireless sensor network, the evaluation of different communication technologies is necessary. Some factors that should be considered are: bandwidth, transmission rate, total range, scalability and power consumption. The IEEE 802.11g standard has a maximum transmission rate of 54 Mbps, a maximum range of 150 m and defines a maximum number of 32 nodes for a local area network (LAN); it requires additional encoding, which results in an increase of the power consumption [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b26-sensors-10-07263">26</xref>]. Another standard for a personal area network (PAN) is the IEEE 802.15.1 (Bluetooth); this standard has a transmission rate of 1 Mbps, a maximum range of 10 m and allows the integration of a network with a master device and up to seven slave devices that can only communicate with their master [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b27-sensors-10-07263">27</xref>]. The IEEE 802.15.4 (ZigBee) standard has a transmission rate of 250 kbps and a maximum range of 1,000 m in its most recent versions. This standard works in three different frequency bands and could contain up to 65,536 nodes on a network and has low energy consumption [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b28-sensors-10-07263">28</xref>]. <xref ref-type="table" rid="t1-sensors-10-07263">Table 1</xref> shows a comparative between standards as discussed above.</p><p>A sensor network for monitoring and failure-detection applications in a manufacturing cell with new generation machine tools requires a large amount of nodes because different variables are usually measured; the IEEE 802.15.4 standard allows the integration of 65,535 devices, which is considerably higher compared to most standards usually used for wireless sensor networks, in addition to other benefits such as its transmission range, latency and low power consumption, this standard is considered as the optimum for this application.</p></sec><sec><label>2.2.</label><title>Measurement of Variables in Machine Tools</title><p>Different techniques have been studied in relation to machine-tool condition monitoring and process optimization, using various physical variables for analysis such as acceleration current and dynamic movement by obtaining variables such as position, velocity and mainly jerk. Similarly, studies related to micro-machining have been done, obtaining position measurements in the order of microns.</p><p>Vibration measurements are essential for detecting and diagnosing any deviations from normal operation conditions in machines [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b5-sensors-10-07263">5</xref>]. When a machining process exceeds the desired limits, it may result in excessive vibration, poor quality of the end-piece finishing and permanent damage to the machine.</p><p>Cutting tools along with raw material represent the highest cost of the production process in a manufacturing industry [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b11-sensors-10-07263">11</xref>]. Among several techniques to detect the cutting force during a manufacturing process, current monitoring is the cheapest method because it is based on measuring the control current in the servo driver and then extracts the cutting force component [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b10-sensors-10-07263">10</xref>]. During a machining process, the motor current is directly related to the tool condition, where power consumption will be higher for a worn tool than for a sharp one in the same process [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b11-sensors-10-07263">11</xref>]. In the case of wear monitoring, the variables that have been used include force, vibration, acoustic emission, cutting temperature and current [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b4-sensors-10-07263">4</xref>].</p><p>Dynamic parameters are related as successive derivations by theoretically differentiating position signals, to obtain speed, acceleration and jerk [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b17-sensors-10-07263">17</xref>]. Jerk monitoring, defined as the first derivative of acceleration, has become a major issue in CNC machines; for this reason, different works have treated the estimation of this parameter, either from encoder counts or from accelerometer measurements [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b8-sensors-10-07263">8</xref>]. Particularly, jerk is related to machine wear, amplifier saturation and other undesired electromechanical conditions [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b17-sensors-10-07263">17</xref>].</p><p>The miniaturization of components has become an important part of modern technologies in order to meet the demand for reduced size and high accuracy. A miniature system provides portability, low material and energy consumption, and a better integration and process automation [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b7-sensors-10-07263">7</xref>]. To obtain a better precision, position control of a machine tool has become the primary concern. For precise positioning measurement, different techniques have been proposed, among them the use of position sensing detectors (PSD), which are low cost and have high resolution [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b19-sensors-10-07263">19</xref>].</p></sec><sec><label>2.3.</label><title>Signal Processing Methodologies</title><p>In order to test the functionality of the proposed smart sensor network, four methods recently used in machine tools have been identified, where the required processing can be implemented in each sensor node due to its reconfigurability.</p><sec><label>2.3.1.</label><title>Accelerometer-Based Vibration Monitoring</title><p>Rangel-Magdaleno <italic>et al.</italic> [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b29-sensors-10-07263">29</xref>] use as part of their methodology an accelerometer-based vibration measurement for condition monitoring and failure detection utilizing the DWT (discrete wavelet transform) for detecting broken bars in induction motors. The DWT is computed using a set of discrete-time low and high-pass filters, which is known as the Mallat algorithm. The Mallat algorithm has two sections: decomposition (DWT) and reconstruction (IDWT). During the decomposition processes, the original signal goes through a low-pass and high-pass filter bank to obtain the low frequency components known as approximations, and the high frequency component as details. Each level of decomposition decimates the original data length to the half of the data in the previous level. According to the filter bank properties, the frequency band for an approximation <italic>AC<sub>L</sub></italic> and a detail <italic>DC<sub>L</sub></italic> is given by <xref ref-type="disp-formula" rid="FD1">Equations (1)</xref> and <xref ref-type="disp-formula" rid="FD2">(2)</xref> respectively, where <italic>L</italic> is the level of the desired decomposition and <italic>fs</italic> is the sampling frequency. The reconstruction section takes the information obtained from one or more decomposition levels and returns the signal representation to the time domain:

The servo system is controlled for the movement while the position error is measured with the PSD. The profile of the measured error by the PSD was stored during machining for servosystem compensation.</p></sec><sec sec-type="intro"><label>2.3.5.</label><title>Characteristics of the Sensors</title><p>The characteristics of primary sensors to be used in the methodologies depend on the application needs. For instance, in the case of accelerometer-based vibration monitoring, the resolution of the sensor is determined depending on the level of detail needed and the accuracy depends on the vibration measurement range in the application; however, the methodology is suitable for any type of accelerometer. For jerk estimation, encoder resolution (counts per revolution) does not affect the algorithm of the methodology proposed, however a higher accuracy of the sensor will provide a better speed control. In the case of tool wear monitoring, a higher resolution will provide a better estimation of the flank wear area. Micropositioning methodology works for any sensor resolution but this will limit the minimum compensation of error and therefore the accuracy of the positioning system. Finally, each methodology can be adapted for the required resolutions, either by the sensor or by the number of bits at the analog to digital converter which require a change in data format.</p></sec></sec></sec><sec><label>3.</label><title>Wireless Smart Sensor Network</title><p><xref ref-type="fig" rid="f1-sensors-10-07263">Figure 1</xref> shows the general block diagram of the network, which can integrate <italic>n</italic> wireless smart sensors (WSS) based on the proposed platform, the maximum value of <italic>n</italic> is 65,535 for a single coordinator. The smart sensors are connected to different primary sensors that monitor the variables of interest from the CNC machine in a typical manufacturing cell. The master device or coordinator is implemented in a platform with similar characteristics, it is responsible for associating or disassociating the devices in its PAN, and it configures the processing and acquisition parameters. The network is capable of communicating directly with a computer, a display or a storage system.</p><p>The implemented platform consists of three stages as shown in <xref ref-type="fig" rid="f2-sensors-10-07263">Figure 2</xref>: signal conditioning, wireless transmission and reception, and hardware processing and control. The signal conditioning stage includes the instrumentation of the different type of sensors that are incorporated on the device; this stage is developed in an external module with a physical interface for coupling to the platform. This module is different for each type of sensor, and its construction is simple and compact. The wireless transmission and reception stage is constituted by a module that allows the modulation and transmission of data; this stage includes a commercial transceiver circuit, which uses the standard IEEE 802.15.4 in the physical and media access control (MAC) layer. Furthermore, it includes the physical environment for wireless transmission, composed of coupling circuitry for an external antenna.</p><p>The hardware processing unit is based on a low-cost and low-power consumption FPGA that controls the interface of the signal conditioning stage by implementing the driver for the analog-to-digital converter (ADC), which depends on the primary sensor connected to the platform. It connects to the transmission stage in order to control the radio transceiver for the wireless communication; it also handles the communication protocol according to the network capabilities and includes modules for hardware signal processing.</p><sec><label>3.1.</label><title>Wireless Protocol</title><p>In the hardware processing unit it is necessary to define a communication protocol for the wireless sensor network. Since the selected standard is capable of operating at three different radio frequency bands, the 2.4 GHz band is chosen because of its high transmission rate and because it operates in the industrial, scientific and medical (ISM) band.</p><p>The communication protocol uses a star topology network in which slave nodes can communicate only with the coordinator of the network [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b28-sensors-10-07263">28</xref>]; each node has a specific 16-bit PAN address, and at the same time a 16-bit and 64-bit individual addresses all stored in a memory into the device. The network coordinator integrates several tasks as: association and disassociation of nodes in the network, device configuration, data request and data reception, request of node status. Moreover, the nodes integrate specific tasks for the sensor network: association to only one coordinator, send data to request and receive setup instructions; that is why they are called reduced functionality devices (RFD) as they have basic functionalities in the protocol but they are not capable of coordinating a network of similar devices.</p><p><xref ref-type="fig" rid="f3-sensors-10-07263">Figure 3a</xref> shows the implemented architecture to manage the wireless transmission stage; it consists of two parts: the first part is an interface to the transceiver circuit for physical configuration of the device; it configures the MAC-layer characteristics and manages the transmission and reception options. The second part includes the implementations of the proprietary protocol that is based on an instruction read-only memory (ROM) that stores the parameters for the physical initialization of the transceiver; a frame-generator module and a frame-decoder module are implemented in this part according to the frame format required by the standard.</p><p>Memory in the transceiver is implemented as static RAM and it is accessible via the SPI port. Memory is functionally divided into control registers and data buffers (FIFOs), to handle the reception and transmission of packets. The frame-generator unit is shown in <xref ref-type="fig" rid="f3-sensors-10-07263">Figure 3b</xref>; it contains a field selector and an address counter to write through the transceiver driver the sequence of data in the transmission FIFO (TXFIFO) according to the frame format specified by the standard containing several fields; frame length, frame control, sequence number, PAN identifier and addressing fields and the data payload that contains the information from the HSP-modules. The first field is the frame length calculated depending of the number of data to be sent; the second field is the frame control defined by the standard and contains information of the frame structure. An 8-bit counter is used to generate the sequence number, this counter is incremented after the previous transmission is succeeded, and PAN identifier and addressing fields are located in a memory outside the module in order to be reconfigured. This module has an FSM (finite-state machine) to control the selector and the counters. The unit has a start frame generation (SFG) and end of frame generation (EFG) ports, in order to be externally controlled.</p><p>The frame-decoder unit, shown in <xref ref-type="fig" rid="f3-sensors-10-07263">Figure 3b</xref>, is constituted by a shift register, a frame length counter, an address counter and an FSM, once the transceiver has received a valid packet without errors an interrupt occurred and the packet is read, the first byte read from the reception FIFO (RXFIFO) is the frame length and the data is stored in a register in order to read only the packet, after the frame length is stored the following data is read and stored in the shift register, the fields are organized according to their origin and importance, extracting only the source address and the data payload. Each packet has information of the signal received; the received signal strength indicator (RSSI) can be extracted from the packet too. Also this module has a start frame decoder SFD port and end of frame decoder EOFD port to control the module externally.</p><p>A memory bank is defined with the structure of the instruction ROM that defines the tasks of this protocol. Within the instruction ROM, there is a section that contains the initialization parameters of the different devices, defines the type of network, the frame format, the transmission power, and the communication channel. The coordinator module keeps all its addresses fixed, while the node addresses are defined by the coordinator.</p></sec><sec><label>3.2.</label><title>Reconfigurable Processor</title><p>The main feature of the platform lies upon its capacity of incorporating different HSP modules; these modules can be implemented in the hardware processing stage due to its reconfigurability. <xref ref-type="fig" rid="f4-sensors-10-07263">Figure 4</xref> shows a block diagram of the proposed platform overall structure that depicts the FPGA-based processing stage where the description of an interface is implemented; this interface depends on the specific sensor connected to the platform, and on the drivers for the wireless module. <xref ref-type="fig" rid="f4-sensors-10-07263">Figure 4</xref> also shows the wireless transmission stage that consists of a radio frequency transceiver and the corresponding coupling circuitry.

The first methodology based on accelerometer measurement uses a smart sensor for detecting broken bars in spindle induction motors by using a DWT transform. The second methodology measures the servomotor driver current and the processing implemented on the smart sensor to estimate the flank-wear area in inserts during machining. For the third methodology, the validation was done by using a smart sensor for the measurement of the encoder signal from an axis servomotor of a CNC machine. The measure of position for a linear stage was obtained by processing in a smart sensor the voltage signal obtained from an optical sensor, calculating RMS value. For this experiment the PAN coordinator was placed at 5 m from the sensor nodes, allowing an optimum data reception and a bandwith network utilization of 22.53% of the total available of an IEEE 802.15.4 channel. During the test, additional data was transmitted in order to show the results validation, as in the case of accelerometer-based vibrations monitoring and encoder-based jerk monitoring methodologies; the omission of this additional information reduces the traffic in the network. The amount of data sent through is considerably reduced from 660,960 bps to 42,365 bps, 6.4% of the total raw data read. The applied processing allows the relevant information to be sent through the network for each particular application; it is also clear that the raw-data rate is over the maximum transfer rate in the specifications of the used standard [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b28-sensors-10-07263">28</xref>]. By using HSP modules in the WSS, the transmission time of the smart-sensor data after processing is significantly reduced in comparison with the raw data from the sensors; in this way, decreasing the traffic through the communication channel reduces the overall processing time, and increases the number of WSS that can be handled simultaneously in the network.</p></sec></sec><sec><label>6.</label><title>Conclusions</title><p>The wireless smart sensor network developed in this work is capable of coordinating different nodes for the measurement and processing of several variables in the new generation of machine tools under a completely hardware reconfigurable platform. The wireless communication based on IEEE 802.15.4 standard allowed fulfillment of the requirements for new generation CNC machines analysis and monitoring in a manufacturing cell, with the capability to incorporate a large number of variables for measuring and procesing. The proposed reconfigurable smart sensors can perform complex processing, which is optimal in a sensor network for condition monitoring and data analysis in a machining center, since each smart sensor pre-processes the information, reducing the amount of data to be sent through the network. The outcome of this capability provides a more efficient decision-making in the manufacturing cell, contrary to the supposed fact of performing a post-processing for all raw data obtained from the measurement of each variable. The application of the smart sensor network developed in this work can be suitable for monitoring and processing of other variables and other process where on-line measurement is required, as in a production line.</p></sec></body><back><ack><p>This project was partially supported by CONACyT scholarship 217968 and 217969, FOMIX-QRO-2008-CO2-102123 and SEP-CONACyT projects.</p></ack><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="b1-sensors-10-07263"><label>1.</label><element-citation publication-type="journal"><person-group person-group-type="author"><name><surname>Mekid</surname><given-names>S</given-names></name><name><surname>Pruschek</surname><given-names>P</given-names></name><name><surname>Hernandez</surname><given-names>J</given-names></name></person-group><article-title>Beyond intelligent manufacturing: A new generation of flexible intelligent NC machines</article-title><source>Mech.
