Abstract

An abnormality detection device of a machine tool includes a plurality of vibration sensors mounted on a body of the machine tool at a plurality of positions; and a determination portion that determines an operation condition of the machine tool based on vibration information detected by the vibration sensors. The abnormality detection device detects abnormality of the machine tool according to determination information of the determination portion. The determination portion specifies a predetermined item whose machining accuracy lowers based on the mounted position of the vibration sensor that has detected abnormal vibration.

Claims (18)

1. An abnormality detection device of a machine tool, the abnormality detection device comprising:

a plurality of vibration sensors mounted on a body of the machine tool at a plurality of positions; and

a determination portion that determines an operation condition of the machine tool based on vibration information detected by the plurality of vibration sensors,

wherein the abnormality detection device is configured to detect abnormality of the machine tool according to determination information of the determination portion, and

wherein the determination portion is configured to specify a predetermined item whose machining accuracy lowers based on a mounted position of a respective vibration sensor of the plurality of vibration sensors that has detected abnormal vibration.

2. The abnormality detection device according to claim 1 , comprising:

a memory that stores correspondence between a combination of predetermined vibration sensors and the predetermined item, wherein

the determination portion is configured to specify the predetermined item whose machining accuracy lowers by selecting, based on the correspondence, the predetermined item according to a combination of the vibration sensors that have detected abnormal vibration.

3. A machine tool comprising the abnormality detection device of the machine tool according to claim 1 .

4. An abnormality detection device of a machine tool, the abnormality detection device comprising:

a plurality of vibration sensors mounted on a body of the machine tool at a plurality of positions; and

a determination portion that determines an operation condition of the machine tool based on vibration information detected by the plurality of vibration sensors,

wherein the abnormality detection device is configured to detect abnormality of the machine tool according to determination information of the determination portion, and

wherein the determination portion is configured to specify a predetermined aspect of abnormality whose machining accuracy is lowered, based on a mounted position of a respective vibration sensor of the plurality of vibration sensors that has detected abnormal vibration according to the operation condition, the mounted position associated with the predetermined aspect of abnormality.

5. The abnormality detection device according to claim 4 , comprising:

a memory that stores correspondence between a combination of predetermined vibration sensors and a plurality of respective predetermined aspects of abnormality, the plurality of predetermined aspects of abnormality including the predetermined aspect of abnormality, wherein

the determination portion is configured to specify the predetermined aspect of abnormality whose machining accuracy is lowered by identifying, based on the correspondence, the predetermined aspect of abnormality according to a combination of the vibration sensors that have detected abnormal vibration.

6. A machine tool comprising the abnormality detection device of the machine tool according to claim 4 .
