This book provides the tools to enhance the precision, automation and intelligence of modern CNC machining systems. Based on a detailed description of the technical foundations of the machining monitoring system, it develops the general idea of design and implementation of smart machining monitoring systems, focusing on the tool condition monitoring system. The book is structured in two parts. Part I discusses the fundamentals of machining systems, including modeling of machining processes, mathematical basics of condition monitoring and the framework of TCM from a machine learning perspective. Part II is then focused on the applications of these theories. It explains sensory signal processing and feature extraction, as well as the cyber-physical system of the smart machining system. Its utilisation of numerous illustrations and diagrams explain the ideas presented in a clear way, making this book a valuable reference for researchers, graduate students and engineers alike.

This book aims to develop methodologies for enhancing the build quality, automation, and productivity of laser-based additive manufacturing (LAM) systems. Effective online monitoring and intelligent process control methods provide the technical foundation for realizing such advanced LAM systems. Following a comprehensive introduction to LAM processes, including process classifications, process design, material considerations, and molten pool dynamics, the book presents a general framework for the design and implementation of an intelligent LAM monitoring system.Adopting a data-driven approach, the book elaborates on state-of-the-art techniques in measurement, signal processing, and machine learning for process monitoring and intelligent control, with the goal of improving quality, reliability, and production efficiency. Within this framework, both fundamental theories and recent advances in machine vision, deep learning, and digital twin technologies for LAM systems are introduced and discussed.The book includes over 120 figures and diagrams to illustrate key concepts and results. It integrates the author’s research and teaching experience in the field and serves as a valuable reference for researchers, graduate students, and engineers, as well as a supplementary resource for advanced undergraduate students.
