Abstract

A machine tool monitoring device of a machine tool for machining a work piece, includes a signal unit ( 24 ) provided for an ultra-broad-band operation. The signal unit ( 24 ) processes a signal ( 32, 34 ), which has a sequence ( 46 ) of pulses ( 48 ) and includes an arithmetic-logic unit ( 40 ) for associating a detected signal ( 34 ) with a use situation ( 52, 58 ) by means of a fuzzy logic-based and/or neural logic-based signal processing. The signal unit ( 24 ) preferably has a programmable data base ( 44 ) in which a use situation ( 52, 58 ) in a machining process is associated with a procedure ( 56, 60 ) for changing the machining process.

Claims (18)

1. A machine tool monitoring device of a machine tool for machining a work piece, comprising:

a signal unit ( 24 ) provided for an ultra-broad-band operation,

wherein the signal unit ( 24 ) has a programmable data base ( 44 ) in which a use situation ( 52 , 58 ) in a machining process is associated with a procedure ( 56 , 60 ) for changing the machining process,

wherein the signal unit ( 24 ) includes an arithmetic-logic unit ( 40 ) that is provided for associating a detected signal ( 34 ) with a use situation ( 52 , 58 ) by means of a fuzzy logic-based and/or neural logic-based signal processing.

2. The machine tool monitoring device as recited in claim 1 , wherein the signal unit ( 24 ) is provided for processing a signal ( 32 , 34 ), which has a sequence ( 46 ) of pulses ( 48 ).

3. The machine tool monitoring device as recited in claim 1 ,

wherein the signal unit ( 24 ) is provided for determining a work progress in a machining of a work piece.

4. The machine tool monitoring device as recited in claim 3 , wherein the signal unit ( 24 ) is provided for determining a distance ( 62 , 64 ).

5. The machine tool monitoring device as recited in claim 1 ,

wherein the signal unit ( 24 ) is provided for determining a speed (V) of a work piece ( 50 ) to be machined.

6. The machine tool monitoring device as recited in claim 5 , wherein the signal unit ( 24 ) has a data base ( 44 ) in which a use situation ( 52 , 58 ) is associated with at least one signal pattern ( 54 , 59 ).

7. The machine tool monitoring device as recited in claim 5 , further comprising an electronic output device ( 18 ) that is provided for outputting a piece of monitoring information to a user.

8. The machine tool monitoring device as recited in claim 5 , further comprising an electronic input device ( 20 ) that is provided for inputting at least one piece of monitoring information.

9. The machine tool monitoring device as recited in claim 1 ,

further comprising a regulating device ( 26 ) that is provided for regulating at least one parameter ( 68 ) of a work piece machining process.

10. A machine tool, comprising:

a machine tool monitoring device, said machine tool monitoring device comprising a signal unit ( 24 ) provided for an ultra-broad-band operation,

wherein the signal unit ( 24 ) has a programmable data base ( 44 ) in which a use situation ( 52 , 58 ) in a machining process is associated with a procedure ( 56 , 60 ) for changing the machining process, and wherein the signal unit ( 24 ) includes an arithmetic-logic unit ( 40 ) that is provided for associating a detected signal ( 34 ) with a use situation ( 52 , 58 ) by means of a fuzzy logic-based and/or neural logic-based signal processing.
