Abstract
Laser scanning technology has been used for several years. Nevertheless, no comprehensive study has been conducted to prove that the application of confocal chromatic sensor (CCHS) laser technology is effective and suitable to verify the integrity parameters of machined surfaces in terms of cutting tool damage. In this paper, the optimization and effects of five factors (cutting speed, feed, depth of cut, attachment length of the workpiece, and tip radius) on the roundness deviation measured by CCHS and, at the same time, on the amount of wear on the back side of the cutting part of the tool were studied according to ISO 3685, which was measured with a microscope. The results obtained were evaluated using the gray relational analysis method (GRA), in conjunction with the Taguchi method, and the significance of the factors was demonstrated using the analysis of variance (ANOVA) method.
