According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "An IIOT-Based present invention relates to an automated system for real-time monitoring and fault detection of cutting tools used in Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machining processes. The system continuously acquires machining parameters such as vibration, spindle speed, cutting force, temperature, and acoustic signals using embedded sensors mounted on the CNC machine. The collected data is processed through a microcontroller or industrial computing unit and analyzed using predefined algorithms to identify abnormal operating conditions such as tool wear, tool breakage, and chatter. Upon detection of a fault, the system generates alerts or automatically stops the machining operation to prevent damage to the workpiece and machine. This invention improves machining accuracy, reduces downtime, minimizes tool failure risks, and enhances productivity in automated manufacturing environments."
