Context-aware machining phase extraction in CNC processes

The goal of this Master’s thesis is to interlink CAD/CAM planning data with machine-generated high-frequency data. Develop a hybrid data-fusion framework that leverages both signal patterns and CAD/CAM planning data to predict machining phases and contextualize anomalies, e.g., by segmenting machining phase operations (e.g., tool engagement, cutting, air gaps) using a hybrid ML approach. An expected outcome is a framework that combines time-series machining signals (torque data) with planning data from CAD/CAM systems (feed rates, spindle speed, etc.).

This thesis will be carried out in an industry cooperation with MUST Visibility FlexCo, Graz.
