1 Introduction

As an emerging technology in the field of intelligentmanufacturing the motorized spindle of the computernumerical control (CNC) machine tool is regarded as a corecomponent of all manufacturing facilities its performancecould determine the machining accuracy and productionefficiency of CNC machine tools even the wholemanufacturing supply chain to a large extent [1] (us itsreliability improvement and health management causewidespread concern For the purpose of improving theavailability and reducing production expenses of the mo-torized spindle condition-based maintenance (CBM) hasdrawn much attention [2] It focuses on utilizing the con-dition monitoring information collected in real time toassess health status and to develop optimal maintenancestrategies [3]

As a condition monitoring method control charts of thestatistical process control (SPC) theory can be incorporatedwith maintenance analysis to realize CBM optimization

Shrivastava et al [4] integrated the cumulative sum(CUSUM) control chart with preventive maintenance (PM)planning for joint optimization of maintenance activitiesand chart parameters Integrated models combining the X

control chart with PM actions were proposed in [5 6] inorder to protect the equipment from quality declineLampreia et al [7] modified CUSUM and exponentiallyweighted moving average (EWMA) control charts for onlinevibration monitoring thus reducing false alarms andplanning early interventions (e similar modelling idea wasalso adopted for the economic design of maintenance planswith the Shewhart control chart chi-square control chartetc as discussed in [8ndash12] Mehrafrooz and Noorossana [13]developed a model under the assumption of perfect main-tenance the model could express six alternative scenarios ofthe monitored process to achieve the most economicmaintenance schedule (e integrated model was furtherdeveloped by Yin et al [14] considering ten scenarios of thedelayed monitoring process From the perspective of reli-ability improvement some SPC charts were also established

to monitor the feature of time-between-events (TBE) as-suming that TBE followed the gamma distribution [15] thenormal distribution [16] the exponential distribution [17]the Weibull distribution [18] etc

However these aforementioned control charts are allunivariate which are commonly used to monitor indi-vidual observations of a certain type of characteristicvariable For the case of the motorized spindle conditionmonitoring usually contains multiple sensor signals suchas vibration bearing preload acoustic emission soundand temperature [19] and the signals are often auto-correlated [20] (erefore the conventional SPC charts willnot be effective to extract useful and reliable informationfrom the monitoring process leading to larger errors inCBM optimization

To overcome this problem the paper develops a three-stage approach for the purpose of extracting the fusionfeature monitoring the health degradation and optimizingthe CBM strategy for motorized spindles (e main con-tributions of the proposed approach are described as follows

(1) Proportional hazard model (PHM) is introduced toextract the health indicator (e benefits can bedemonstrated in two aspects on the one hand PHMcan integrate multivariate information frommultiplemonitoring signals together with failure data whichresults in the more accurate degradation detectionfor CBM optimization On the other hand thehazard rate from PHM is selected as the health in-dicator of SPC charts It can reduce random inter-ference for SPC charts when monitoring theautocorrelation process the detection error such asthe false alarm or undetected failure can be effec-tively avoided

(2) CBM optimization is combined with SPC chartdesign based upon economic considerations thehealth condition of motorized spindles can beconstantly updated and two types of the failuremechanism including the random failure and thefatigue failure and four possible scenarios are takeninto consideration (e integrated model can avoidunnecessary or untimely maintenance and achieveconsiderable economic benefit by reducing main-tenance costs and raising production efficiencywhich provide effective service and guidance forpractitioners

(e remainder of the paper is organized as followsSection 2 describes the CBM optimization problem andassumptions in detail in which the failure mechanism SPCcharts and maintenance policy are discussed In Section 3the integrated model for combined SPC chart design andCBM scheduling is developed (e hazard rate extractedfrom the PHM is used to characterize the health conditionand the SPC scheme considering four possible scenarios isestablished to monitor the degradation trend in real time(en Section 4 introduces the proposed three-stage ap-proach for optimizing the CBM schedule upon economicconsiderations In association with the PHM and the SPC

charts the average long-run cost during a renewal cycle isminimized by optimizing the upper control limit (UCL)Next a real case of the motorized spindle is studied to verifythe feasibility and practicability of the proposed approach inSection 5 Finally conclusions are presented in the lastsection

2 Problem Statement and Assumptions

For this research the degradation of the motorized spindleduring the long life cycle is due to both external factors likecumulative shocks environmental stress etc and internalfactors like continuous aging etc (erefore the system willsuffer from random failures and fatigue failures Multiplecondition features together with failure event data can beused as the health indicator to characterize the effects ofdegradation

(en the SPC chart is used as a failure diagnosis tool formonitoring the health indicator and detecting the two typesof failures the random failure also known as the hardfailure which is self-announcing and could be detectedimmediately and the fatigue failure also known as the softfailure which is defined to occur only when the degree ofdegradation reaches the preset control limits (e SPC chartscheme is shown in Figure 1 and its control limits can beusually computed following the formula [21] in Table 1according to different SPC charts

When combined withmaintenance planning the controllimits of SPC charts can be regarded as the trigger of amaintenance action the optimization of the CBM strategy istransformed into determining the optimal control limits inorder to minimize the maintenance cost from the per-spective of economic efficiency

(e integrated CBM model is developed under the as-sumptions as follows

(1) (e changing trend of the health indicator may notbe obvious over time and increase rapidly after thesystem enters the wear-out stage In order to graspsystem degradation level and implement mainte-nance actions in time inspections are scheduledevery Δ time unit to detect the health conditionperiodically (e inspection time is short so that theinspection activities are considered instantaneousand nondestructive (e cost per inspection Ci ispredetermined as a constant according to the actualcondition

(2) (e two types of failures correspond to two types ofmaintenance activities which are the preventivereplacement and the corrective replacement re-spectively To be more specific if a hard failureoccurs unexpectedly the corrective replacement isperformed instantly and the average cost per cor-rective replacement Cc covers all costs with respect tothe failure and its associated problems On thecontrary if the monitoring health indicator is de-tected to exceed the control limits at the inspectiontime which is interpreted as a soft failure thepreventive replacement is carried out (e average

cost per preventive replacement Cp covers the costsfor performance maintenance improvement andother related operations In generalCc gtCp since thecorrective replacement is relatively more complexthan the preventive replacement

(3) After each replacement the condition of the mon-itoredmotorized spindle will be restored to the initialstate representing that the system is under the ldquoasgood as newrdquo maintenance strategy In addition it isassumed that the time for both preventive andcorrective replacements is not considered in theCBM model

3 Condition-Based Maintenance (CBM)Model Development

(e integrated model for SPC chart design and CBMscheduling is developed from an economic point of viewwhose objective is to minimize the average long-run costconsidering the costs of all inspections and maintenanceactivities

31 Proportional Hazard Model (PHM) PHM proposed byCox [22] is a popular model which is used to describe therelationship between the degradation influence and thehazard rate (e degradation level is characterized bymultiple features during lifetime operation which areconsidered as covariates(e advantage of using the PHM in

CBM is that it could deduce the hazard rate considering allcovariates in the current state such as the failure event andcondition monitoring factors According to the PHM thehazard rate at time t is defined by

h(t Z(t)) h0(t)exp(cZ(t)) (1)

where h0(t) is the baseline hazard rate at time t and it will becontinually modified by Z(t) let Z(t) [Z1(t) Z2(t) middot middot middot

Zn(t)] be a vector made up of values of n conditionmonitoring features at time t which is a time-dependentstochastic process representing the degradation evolutionAnd c is a vector made up of regression coefficients whichdetermines the influence weight of the monitoring featureson the failure rate

(e time to failure of the electromechanical systemcommonly follows the Weibull distribution [23] As formotorized spindles their baseline hazard rate of the PHM isassumed to be derived from a two-parameter Weibull dis-tribution which has the expression as

(2)

where βgt 0 represents the shape parameter of the Weibulldistribution and ηgt 0 represents the scale parameter of theWeibull distribution

Substituting the Weibull baseline hazard rate functionZ(t) and c vectors into the PHM Weibull proportionalhazard model (WPHM) is derived as

Based on the condition monitoring system the degra-dation features are acquired in real time and the covariatescould be predicted and updated expressed asZ(v) 0lt vltinfin (erefore the remaining useful life ofmotorized spindles can be predicted as derived in [24] by

According to the monitoring data of multiple featuresand the failure event data the parameters of the WPHM canbe estimated by the maximum likelihood method Since themotorized spindle may run to failure or be maintainedbefore failures in the actual CBM process the failure eventdata collected involve both time to failure and censored timeTaking these data types into consideration the likelihoodfunction is given by

where ti represents the value of time to failure ts representsthe value of censored time n is the number of failure timesand m is the number of censored time (e parameter es-timate of β η and c can be calculated by maximizingequation (7)

As a result the hazard rate in real-time operation can beextracted by the PHM it is adopted as the health indicatorinterpreting the current performance state In the next stepSPC techniques will be applied to monitor the changingtrend of the hazard rate and provide CBM decision support

32 Integrated Model and Optimization In the case ofcombining SPC charts with CBM scheduling for mainte-nance strategy optimization of motorized spindles fourpossible scenarios of the integrated CBM model can occurduring a renewal cycle as shown in Figure 2 A renewal cycleis identified as the period between start of process

monitoring and a maintenance activity [25] and the fourdifferent scenarios are further illustrated as follows

Scenario 1 (S1) the performance of the motorizedspindle remains in control with no false out-of-controlalarm which is interpreted as h(t Z(t))leUCLWhen ahard failure occurs in the interval(kΔ (k + 1)Δ) k 0 1 middot middot middot n a corrective replace-ment is immediately implemented and restores thespindle to its initial conditionScenario 2 (S2) the performance of the motorizedspindle remains in control until a false out-of-controlalarm is given at (k + 1)Δ k 0 1 middot middot middot n A preventivereplacement is performed and restores the spindle to itsinitial conditionScenario 3 (S3) the performance of the motorizedspindle shifts to the out-of-control condition in theinterval (k1Δ (k1 + 1)Δ) k1 0 1 middot middot middot n which isinterpreted as h(t Z(t))leUCL However the SPCchart fails to capture an alert signal until the systemresults in a hard failure in the interval(k2Δ (k2 + 1)Δ) k2 0 1 middot middot middot n A corrective re-placement is then executed and restores the spindle toits initial conditionScenario 4 (S4) the performance of the motorizedspindle degrades to the out-of-control condition in theinterval (k1Δ (k1 + 1)Δ) k1 0 1 middot middot middot n minus 1 and theSPC chart succeeds to detect the out-of-control signalat k2Δ k2 k1 + 1 middot middot middot n A preventive replacement iscarried out and restores the spindle to its initialcondition

4 The Three-Stage Approach forCBM Optimization

In this section the proposed approach developed to monitorthe health degradation and optimize the CBM schedule formotorized spindles is described in Figure 3 (e approach iscomposed of three stages involving health indicator ex-traction degradation condition monitoring and CBM op-timization In order to implement this approach the PHM isconstructed and the hazard rate is estimated which is thenapplied in SPC charts as the monitoring statistic At lastcombining SPC with CBM management an integratedoptimization model is given to develop the maintenanceplan andminimize the average long-run cost of maintenanceby searching for the optimal control limits

(e three stages of the proposed approach are outlined asfollows

Stage 1 (construction of the PHM) the model isadopted to extract the estimation of the Stage 2 (es-tablishment of the SPC charts) as long as the pa-rameters of the PHM are estimated with the trainingdata the test data can be collected and plugged into themodel to obtain the hazard rate as the degradationfeature to be monitored (e samples of the hazard rateare then plotted on the control chart with the corre-sponding central line (CL) and UCL which can becomputed as Table 1 according to the selected charttypeStage 2 (establishment of the SPC charts) as longas the parameters of the PHM are estimated with thetraining data the test data can be collected and pluggedinto the model to obtain the hazard rate as the deg-radation feature to be monitored (e samples of thehazard rate are then plotted on the control chart withthe corresponding central line (CL) and UCL whichcan be computed as Table 1 according to the selectedchart typehazard rate by the fusion of event data andcondition monitoring data (is stage is illustrated indetail as follows

Step 1 (data acquisition) (e performance of mo-torized spindles mainly depends on their key func-tional components such as the bearings the toolclamping system and the rotary unions [26](erefore these components would be focused byinstalling additional sensors and different signals arecollected comprising vibration current forceacoustic emission temperature leakage flow etc [19]in order to describe the degradation characteristics ofthe system more accuratelyStep 2 (data preprocessing and feature extraction)Using the collected life cycle signals of the monitoredspindle to select the typical features in time fre-quency and time-frequency domains approachessuch as principal component analysis can be adoptedfor the purpose of reducing the dimension of featureswhile keeping the information with the largest con-tribution to describe system degradation processStep 3 (health indicator estimation) Combining theextracted features from the condition monitoring

system with failure event data in the lifetime ofmotorized spindles the PHM is constructed and itsparameters are estimated with the training samples(erefore the hazard rate observation can be obtainedas the health indicator for the next stage of degra-dation condition monitoring

Stage 2 (establishment of the SPC charts) as long as theparameters of the PHM are estimated with the trainingdata the test data can be collected and plugged into themodel to obtain the hazard rate as the degradationfeature to be monitored (e samples of the hazard rateare then plotted on the control chart with the corre-sponding central line (CL) and UCL which can becomputed as Table 1 according to the selected charttype(e chart is then adopted as a tool for anomaly de-tection and a trigger for maintenance activities Inparticular if a sample point plotted on the SPC chart iswithin the UCL the system is considered as in-controland the periodic inspection and daily health manage-ment are maintained Otherwise the system is definedas out of control which implies that the degradationlevel exceeds an acceptable threshold and a preventivereplacement is performed Meanwhile a failure of thesystem could occur during both in-control and out-of-control phases which will trigger a correctivereplacementStage 3 (optimization of the CBM) based on theaforementioned maintenance strategy the monitoringsystem integrating SPC charts and PHM is furtherdeveloped for CBM optimization Four differentscenarios that can describe the possibilities in mon-itoring process are taken into account in order toestablish the CBM model Each scenario is ended by amaintenance activity and the monitored system isrestarted as a new cycle with an ldquoas good as newrdquocondition Finally the SPC chart is updated and theoptimal CBM schedule is obtained through mini-mizing the average long-run cost during a renewalcycle by optimizing the UCL

5 Case Study

(eproposed three-stage approach is applied to a real case ofthe motorized spindle in order to illustrate its strongpracticability (e developing process of degradation andfailure of motorized spindles are mainly blamed on bearingfailures clamping device rubbing and rotary union loos-ening which can be characterized by vibration signals [27](erefore the case reported here is based on vibration signalanalysis in particular

51 Experimental Setup (e failure events and conditionmonitoring data sets are generated from the motorizedspindle going through run-to-failure experiments underconstant rotary speed at 4000 RPM (e experiment rig isshown in Figure 4

6 Mathematical Problems in Engineering

(e experimental setup is designed considering thestructure of the motorized spindle which is shown inFigure 4(a) the spindle can be subjected to the cuttingtorque provided by the dynamometer joined to the toolholder with the couplings and the biaxial cutting forcesprovided by the axial and radial loading systems(e spindleis kept running 12 hours per day except for irregularequipment adjustment and unexpected failures

Based on experimental requirements two PCB 356A15triaxial high sensitivity ceramic shear ICP accelerometersare installed on the front face and the back face of themotorized spindle respectively (e specific placement is

52 Feature Extraction and PHMConstruction (e trainingdata collected include time of inspections time to failurecensored time and vibration signal Each inspection lasts atleast 30 seconds which contains 150000 vibration signalswith the sampling rate of 5 kHz A total of 246 inspectionsspanning over 1000-hour operation test on the tested mo-torized spindle are conducted During the whole experi-mental period 7 hard failures and 5 suspensions areobserved Among them the 7 failures are considered asunexpected functional failures and the 5 suspensions aredue to adjustments of experimental equipment

Only the x-axial vibration measurements were used foranalysis and three commonly used time-domain features areextracted from the lifetime vibration data of the testedspindle(e technicians believe that the selected features cancontain essential information to interpret the specific failurewell [28] (e features as derived in [29] are summarized inTable 5

PHMs with different features are fitted and K-S good-ness-of-fit tests are performed to obtain a better model (eparameters and the test statistics of hazard rate functions areestimated and listed in Table 6 (e traditional Weibulldistribution without incorporating any feature is also fittedand its result is shown in Table 6 as Model 1

It implies in Table 6 that the significance of RMS in thePHM is greater than kurtosis and crest factor In additionthe fitting effect of the PHM integrating with condition

monitoring features is better than the traditional Weibulldistribution Since the PHM with RMS has the lowest K-Sstatistic of 02190 and the highest p value of 08255 com-paring with the other models in the table the PHM withRMS is selected for further degradation monitoring andmaintenance decision of the motorized spindle and itsparameters are estimated as β 20046 η 1513602 andc1 10768

53 SPC Establishment and Degradation Monitoring For amonitored renewal cycle of themotorized spindle a life cycleof 372 hours with 93 inspections in total is adopted to obtainthe 93 testing values of RMS as the lifetime features whichare shown in Figure 5(a) (en the set of RMS is pluggedinto the PHM obtained from the training data set in Section52 and the hazard rate is calculated and plotted inFigure 5(b)

(e hazard rate set of the testing cycle is then used asmonitored health indicators (e SPC charts introduced inSection 2 are constructed as supports for anomaly detectionand CBM optimization (e Shewhart I-chart and theEWMA chart are taken as examples which are shown inFigures 6(a) and 6(b) In the case of monitoring the hazardrate only UCL and CL are essential (e red solid linesrepresent the UCLs of the charts the green-dotted linesrepresent the CLs of the charts the black dots are corre-sponding statistics derived from the testing data of thehazard rate and the marked purple circles are degradationstates determined to be out of control

To be more specific the two charts are establishedfollowing the rules in Table 1 As for the Shewhart I-chartin Figure 6(a) the estimated process mean μ0 00219the estimated process standard deviation σ0 00013UCL 00258 CL 00219 and the control limit widthn 3 and the process is determined to be out of control atthe 62nd inspection Figure 6(b) depicts the results of theEWMA chart whose weight parameter is set to beλ 025 the UCL is stable at UCL 00234 and theprocess is determined to be out of control at the 60thinspection

Since the Shewhart I-chart monitors the performance ofthe motorized spindle only based on observed data at in-dividual inspections it is less sensitive in detecting degra-dation with small and moderate change trends incomparison with the EWMA chart [30] However in thecase of monitoring the hazard rate of the tested spindle theresults of the EWMA chart show little significant deviationcomparing to the Shewhart I-chart which is mostly theconsequence of using the hazard rate from the proposedPHM as the monitoring statistic (e model could com-promise multiple information based on time series in orderto eliminate autocorrelation in the process and reduce theinfluence of the random error As a result the two types ofchartsrsquo abilities for gradual degradation detection aresatisfactory

54 CBM Schedule Optimization To build the final CBMmodel the established SPC chart is keen to be updated andoptimized by finding optimal UCLlowast which is used to triggercorresponding maintenance actions so that the inspectionand maintenance cost can be minimized

In the current case the tested spindle is inspected every 4 hours the cost of each inspection Ciis ¥30 (epreventive replacement cost Cpis ¥500 and the correctivereplacement cost Ccis ¥6000 To simplify the analysisPdand Pfare set to be 0 and Puand Pnare set to be 1 whichreduce the four scenarios to two for the control chart Fi-nally the CBM model can be interpreted as follows

Scenario 1 (S1) the motorized spindle remains incontrol until a hard failure occurs in the interval(4k 4(k + 1)) A corrective replacement is imple-mented and restores the spindle to its initial conditionScenario 2 (S2) the motorized spindle degrades to theout-of-control condition in the interval (4k 4(k + 1))and the SPC chart succeeds to detect it at 4(k + 1) Apreventive replacement is carried out and restores thespindle to its initial condition

As a result the long-run cost rate is obtained through thefollowing formula

6 Conclusions

(e proposed three-stage approach in this paper is com-mitted to fusing various degradation features monitoringthe degradation process and developing the optimal CBMplans for motorized spindles (e combined effect of con-dition features degrading over time together with failureevents is interpreted by the PHM and SPC charts are thenintroduced to monitor the changing trend of the hazard rateobtained from the PHM Application of the SPC charts withperiodic hazard rate inspections helps in CBM modellingand four possible scenarios are defined to constitute themaintenance model At last the CBM plan with minimumlong-run cost is obtained by seeking for the optimal UCL

(e feasibility and practicability of the approach areproved by a case study using the actual spindle vibrationdata (e analysis results indicate that the PHM contributesto describing the degradation states of the motorized spindlemore accurately and three different time-domain featuresare extracted from the raw vibration signals and are used ascovariates in the PHM RMS is verified to have the bestfitting effect of the experimental data

(e proposed approach allows not only maintenanceoptimization but also accurate characterization of healthdegradation It can help maintenance technicians andmanagers reduce breakdown time delete unnecessarymaintenance actions and minimize maintenance costs in anintuitive and efficient way (e approach in this paper canalso be applied for the motorized spindle operating in CNCmachine tools for intelligent manufacturing in order toachieve better performance and a longer life of the wholemanufacturing supply chain

to monitor the feature of time-between-events (TBE) as-suming that TBE followed the gamma distribution [15] thenormal distribution [16] the exponential distribution [17]the Weibull distribution [18] etc

However these aforementioned control charts are allunivariate which are commonly used to monitor indi-vidual observations of a certain type of characteristicvariable For the case of the motorized spindle conditionmonitoring usually contains multiple sensor signals suchas vibration bearing preload acoustic emission soundand temperature [19] and the signals are often auto-correlated [20] (erefore the conventional SPC charts willnot be effective to extract useful and reliable informationfrom the monitoring process leading to larger errors inCBM optimization

To overcome this problem the paper develops a three-stage approach for the purpose of extracting the fusionfeature monitoring the health degradation and optimizingthe CBM strategy for motorized spindles (e main con-tributions of the proposed approach are described as follows

(1) Proportional hazard model (PHM) is introduced toextract the health indicator (e benefits can bedemonstrated in two aspects on the one hand PHMcan integrate multivariate information frommultiplemonitoring signals together with failure data whichresults in the more accurate degradation detectionfor CBM optimization On the other hand thehazard rate from PHM is selected as the health in-dicator of SPC charts It can reduce random inter-ference for SPC charts when monitoring theautocorrelation process the detection error such asthe false alarm or undetected failure can be effec-tively avoided

(2) CBM optimization is combined with SPC chartdesign based upon economic considerations thehealth condition of motorized spindles can beconstantly updated and two types of the failuremechanism including the random failure and thefatigue failure and four possible scenarios are takeninto consideration (e integrated model can avoidunnecessary or untimely maintenance and achieveconsiderable economic benefit by reducing main-tenance costs and raising production efficiencywhich provide effective service and guidance forpractitioners

(e remainder of the paper is organized as followsSection 2 describes the CBM optimization problem andassumptions in detail in which the failure mechanism SPCcharts and maintenance policy are discussed In Section 3the integrated model for combined SPC chart design andCBM scheduling is developed (e hazard rate extractedfrom the PHM is used to characterize the health conditionand the SPC scheme considering four possible scenarios isestablished to monitor the degradation trend in real time(en Section 4 introduces the proposed three-stage ap-proach for optimizing the CBM schedule upon economicconsiderations In association with the PHM and the SPC

charts the average long-run cost during a renewal cycle isminimized by optimizing the upper control limit (UCL)Next a real case of the motorized spindle is studied to verifythe feasibility and practicability of the proposed approach inSection 5 Finally conclusions are presented in the lastsection

2 Problem Statement and Assumptions

For this research the degradation of the motorized spindleduring the long life cycle is due to both external factors likecumulative shocks environmental stress etc and internalfactors like continuous aging etc (erefore the system willsuffer from random failures and fatigue failures Multiplecondition features together with failure event data can beused as the health indicator to characterize the effects ofdegradation

(en the SPC chart is used as a failure diagnosis tool formonitoring the health indicator and detecting the two typesof failures the random failure also known as the hardfailure which is self-announcing and could be detectedimmediately and the fatigue failure also known as the softfailure which is defined to occur only when the degree ofdegradation reaches the preset control limits (e SPC chartscheme is shown in Figure 1 and its control limits can beusually computed following the formula [21] in Table 1according to different SPC charts

When combined withmaintenance planning the controllimits of SPC charts can be regarded as the trigger of amaintenance action the optimization of the CBM strategy istransformed into determining the optimal control limits inorder to minimize the maintenance cost from the per-spective of economic efficiency

(e integrated CBM model is developed under the as-sumptions as follows

(1) (e changing trend of the health indicator may notbe obvious over time and increase rapidly after thesystem enters the wear-out stage In order to graspsystem degradation level and implement mainte-nance actions in time inspections are scheduledevery Δ time unit to detect the health conditionperiodically (e inspection time is short so that theinspection activities are considered instantaneousand nondestructive (e cost per inspection Ci ispredetermined as a constant according to the actualcondition

(2) (e two types of failures correspond to two types ofmaintenance activities which are the preventivereplacement and the corrective replacement re-spectively To be more specific if a hard failureoccurs unexpectedly the corrective replacement isperformed instantly and the average cost per cor-rective replacement Cc covers all costs with respect tothe failure and its associated problems On thecontrary if the monitoring health indicator is de-tected to exceed the control limits at the inspectiontime which is interpreted as a soft failure thepreventive replacement is carried out (e average

cost per preventive replacement Cp covers the costsfor performance maintenance improvement andother related operations In generalCc gtCp since thecorrective replacement is relatively more complexthan the preventive replacement

(3) After each replacement the condition of the mon-itoredmotorized spindle will be restored to the initialstate representing that the system is under the ldquoasgood as newrdquo maintenance strategy In addition it isassumed that the time for both preventive andcorrective replacements is not considered in theCBM model

3 Condition-Based Maintenance (CBM)Model Development

(e integrated model for SPC chart design and CBMscheduling is developed from an economic point of viewwhose objective is to minimize the average long-run costconsidering the costs of all inspections and maintenanceactivities

31 Proportional Hazard Model (PHM) PHM proposed byCox [22] is a popular model which is used to describe therelationship between the degradation influence and thehazard rate (e degradation level is characterized bymultiple features during lifetime operation which areconsidered as covariates(e advantage of using the PHM in

CBM is that it could deduce the hazard rate considering allcovariates in the current state such as the failure event andcondition monitoring factors According to the PHM thehazard rate at time t is defined by

h(t Z(t)) h0(t)exp(cZ(t)) (1)

where h0(t) is the baseline hazard rate at time t and it will becontinually modified by Z(t) let Z(t) [Z1(t) Z2(t) middot middot middot

Zn(t)] be a vector made up of values of n conditionmonitoring features at time t which is a time-dependentstochastic process representing the degradation evolutionAnd c is a vector made up of regression coefficients whichdetermines the influence weight of the monitoring featureson the failure rate

(e time to failure of the electromechanical systemcommonly follows the Weibull distribution [23] As formotorized spindles their baseline hazard rate of the PHM isassumed to be derived from a two-parameter Weibull dis-tribution which has the expression as

(2)

where βgt 0 represents the shape parameter of the Weibulldistribution and ηgt 0 represents the scale parameter of theWeibull distribution

Substituting the Weibull baseline hazard rate functionZ(t) and c vectors into the PHM Weibull proportionalhazard model (WPHM) is derived as

Based on the condition monitoring system the degra-dation features are acquired in real time and the covariatescould be predicted and updated expressed asZ(v) 0lt vltinfin (erefore the remaining useful life ofmotorized spindles can be predicted as derived in [24] by

According to the monitoring data of multiple featuresand the failure event data the parameters of the WPHM canbe estimated by the maximum likelihood method Since themotorized spindle may run to failure or be maintainedbefore failures in the actual CBM process the failure eventdata collected involve both time to failure and censored timeTaking these data types into consideration the likelihoodfunction is given by

where ti represents the value of time to failure ts representsthe value of censored time n is the number of failure timesand m is the number of censored time (e parameter es-timate of β η and c can be calculated by maximizingequation (7)

As a result the hazard rate in real-time operation can beextracted by the PHM it is adopted as the health indicatorinterpreting the current performance state In the next stepSPC techniques will be applied to monitor the changingtrend of the hazard rate and provide CBM decision support

32 Integrated Model and Optimization In the case ofcombining SPC charts with CBM scheduling for mainte-nance strategy optimization of motorized spindles fourpossible scenarios of the integrated CBM model can occurduring a renewal cycle as shown in Figure 2 A renewal cycleis identified as the period between start of process

monitoring and a maintenance activity [25] and the fourdifferent scenarios are further illustrated as follows

Scenario 1 (S1) the performance of the motorizedspindle remains in control with no false out-of-controlalarm which is interpreted as h(t Z(t))leUCLWhen ahard failure occurs in the interval(kΔ (k + 1)Δ) k 0 1 middot middot middot n a corrective replace-ment is immediately implemented and restores thespindle to its initial conditionScenario 2 (S2) the performance of the motorizedspindle remains in control until a false out-of-controlalarm is given at (k + 1)Δ k 0 1 middot middot middot n A preventivereplacement is performed and restores the spindle to itsinitial conditionScenario 3 (S3) the performance of the motorizedspindle shifts to the out-of-control condition in theinterval (k1Δ (k1 + 1)Δ) k1 0 1 middot middot middot n which isinterpreted as h(t Z(t))leUCL However the SPCchart fails to capture an alert signal until the systemresults in a hard failure in the interval(k2Δ (k2 + 1)Δ) k2 0 1 middot middot middot n A corrective re-placement is then executed and restores the spindle toits initial conditionScenario 4 (S4) the performance of the motorizedspindle degrades to the out-of-control condition in theinterval (k1Δ (k1 + 1)Δ) k1 0 1 middot middot middot n minus 1 and theSPC chart succeeds to detect the out-of-control signalat k2Δ k2 k1 + 1 middot middot middot n A preventive replacement iscarried out and restores the spindle to its initialcondition

Considering the four possible scenarios the averagelong-run CBM cost c can be transformed to the expectedcost over the expected length of a renewal cycle [26] which isgiven by

4 The Three-Stage Approach forCBM Optimization

In this section the proposed approach developed to monitorthe health degradation and optimize the CBM schedule formotorized spindles is described in Figure 3 (e approach iscomposed of three stages involving health indicator ex-traction degradation condition monitoring and CBM op-timization In order to implement this approach the PHM isconstructed and the hazard rate is estimated which is thenapplied in SPC charts as the monitoring statistic At lastcombining SPC with CBM management an integratedoptimization model is given to develop the maintenanceplan andminimize the average long-run cost of maintenanceby searching for the optimal control limits

(e three stages of the proposed approach are outlined asfollows

Stage 1 (construction of the PHM) the model isadopted to extract the estimation of the Stage 2 (es-tablishment of the SPC charts) as long as the pa-rameters of the PHM are estimated with the trainingdata the test data can be collected and plugged into themodel to obtain the hazard rate as the degradationfeature to be monitored (e samples of the hazard rateare then plotted on the control chart with the corre-sponding central line (CL) and UCL which can becomputed as Table 1 according to the selected charttypeStage 2 (establishment of the SPC charts) as longas the parameters of the PHM are estimated with thetraining data the test data can be collected and pluggedinto the model to obtain the hazard rate as the deg-radation feature to be monitored (e samples of thehazard rate are then plotted on the control chart withthe corresponding central line (CL) and UCL whichcan be computed as Table 1 according to the selectedchart typehazard rate by the fusion of event data andcondition monitoring data (is stage is illustrated indetail as follows

Step 1 (data acquisition) (e performance of mo-torized spindles mainly depends on their key func-tional components such as the bearings the toolclamping system and the rotary unions [26](erefore these components would be focused byinstalling additional sensors and different signals arecollected comprising vibration current forceacoustic emission temperature leakage flow etc [19]in order to describe the degradation characteristics ofthe system more accuratelyStep 2 (data preprocessing and feature extraction)Using the collected life cycle signals of the monitoredspindle to select the typical features in time fre-quency and time-frequency domains approachessuch as principal component analysis can be adoptedfor the purpose of reducing the dimension of featureswhile keeping the information with the largest con-tribution to describe system degradation processStep 3 (health indicator estimation) Combining theextracted features from the condition monitoring

system with failure event data in the lifetime ofmotorized spindles the PHM is constructed and itsparameters are estimated with the training samples(erefore the hazard rate observation can be obtainedas the health indicator for the next stage of degra-dation condition monitoring

Stage 2 (establishment of the SPC charts) as long as theparameters of the PHM are estimated with the trainingdata the test data can be collected and plugged into themodel to obtain the hazard rate as the degradationfeature to be monitored (e samples of the hazard rateare then plotted on the control chart with the corre-sponding central line (CL) and UCL which can becomputed as Table 1 according to the selected charttype(e chart is then adopted as a tool for anomaly de-tection and a trigger for maintenance activities Inparticular if a sample point plotted on the SPC chart iswithin the UCL the system is considered as in-controland the periodic inspection and daily health manage-ment are maintained Otherwise the system is definedas out of control which implies that the degradationlevel exceeds an acceptable threshold and a preventivereplacement is performed Meanwhile a failure of thesystem could occur during both in-control and out-of-control phases which will trigger a correctivereplacementStage 3 (optimization of the CBM) based on theaforementioned maintenance strategy the monitoringsystem integrating SPC charts and PHM is furtherdeveloped for CBM optimization Four differentscenarios that can describe the possibilities in mon-itoring process are taken into account in order toestablish the CBM model Each scenario is ended by amaintenance activity and the monitored system isrestarted as a new cycle with an ldquoas good as newrdquocondition Finally the SPC chart is updated and theoptimal CBM schedule is obtained through mini-mizing the average long-run cost during a renewalcycle by optimizing the UCL

5 Case Study

(eproposed three-stage approach is applied to a real case ofthe motorized spindle in order to illustrate its strongpracticability (e developing process of degradation andfailure of motorized spindles are mainly blamed on bearingfailures clamping device rubbing and rotary union loos-ening which can be characterized by vibration signals [27](erefore the case reported here is based on vibration signalanalysis in particular

51 Experimental Setup (e failure events and conditionmonitoring data sets are generated from the motorizedspindle going through run-to-failure experiments underconstant rotary speed at 4000 RPM (e experiment rig isshown in Figure 4

6 Mathematical Problems in Engineering

(e experimental setup is designed considering thestructure of the motorized spindle which is shown inFigure 4(a) the spindle can be subjected to the cuttingtorque provided by the dynamometer joined to the toolholder with the couplings and the biaxial cutting forcesprovided by the axial and radial loading systems(e spindleis kept running 12 hours per day except for irregularequipment adjustment and unexpected failures

Based on experimental requirements two PCB 356A15triaxial high sensitivity ceramic shear ICP accelerometersare installed on the front face and the back face of themotorized spindle respectively (e specific placement is

circled in Figures 4(b) and 4(c) and the vibration signal iscollected every 4 hours by ADLINKrsquos USB-24054-CH 24-bit 128 kSs dynamic signal acquisition (e test and thecondition monitoring system are controlled by LabVIEWprogram

52 Feature Extraction and PHMConstruction (e trainingdata collected include time of inspections time to failurecensored time and vibration signal Each inspection lasts atleast 30 seconds which contains 150000 vibration signalswith the sampling rate of 5 kHz A total of 246 inspectionsspanning over 1000-hour operation test on the tested mo-torized spindle are conducted During the whole experi-mental period 7 hard failures and 5 suspensions areobserved Among them the 7 failures are considered asunexpected functional failures and the 5 suspensions aredue to adjustments of experimental equipment

Only the x-axial vibration measurements were used foranalysis and three commonly used time-domain features areextracted from the lifetime vibration data of the testedspindle(e technicians believe that the selected features cancontain essential information to interpret the specific failurewell [28] (e features as derived in [29] are summarized inTable 5

PHMs with different features are fitted and K-S good-ness-of-fit tests are performed to obtain a better model (eparameters and the test statistics of hazard rate functions areestimated and listed in Table 6 (e traditional Weibulldistribution without incorporating any feature is also fittedand its result is shown in Table 6 as Model 1

It implies in Table 6 that the significance of RMS in thePHM is greater than kurtosis and crest factor In additionthe fitting effect of the PHM integrating with condition

monitoring features is better than the traditional Weibulldistribution Since the PHM with RMS has the lowest K-Sstatistic of 02190 and the highest p value of 08255 com-paring with the other models in the table the PHM withRMS is selected for further degradation monitoring andmaintenance decision of the motorized spindle and itsparameters are estimated as β 20046 η 1513602 andc1 10768

53 SPC Establishment and Degradation Monitoring For amonitored renewal cycle of themotorized spindle a life cycleof 372 hours with 93 inspections in total is adopted to obtainthe 93 testing values of RMS as the lifetime features whichare shown in Figure 5(a) (en the set of RMS is pluggedinto the PHM obtained from the training data set in Section52 and the hazard rate is calculated and plotted inFigure 5(b)

(e hazard rate set of the testing cycle is then used asmonitored health indicators (e SPC charts introduced inSection 2 are constructed as supports for anomaly detectionand CBM optimization (e Shewhart I-chart and theEWMA chart are taken as examples which are shown inFigures 6(a) and 6(b) In the case of monitoring the hazardrate only UCL and CL are essential (e red solid linesrepresent the UCLs of the charts the green-dotted linesrepresent the CLs of the charts the black dots are corre-sponding statistics derived from the testing data of thehazard rate and the marked purple circles are degradationstates determined to be out of control

To be more specific the two charts are establishedfollowing the rules in Table 1 As for the Shewhart I-chartin Figure 6(a) the estimated process mean μ0 00219the estimated process standard deviation σ0 00013UCL 00258 CL 00219 and the control limit widthn 3 and the process is determined to be out of control atthe 62nd inspection Figure 6(b) depicts the results of theEWMA chart whose weight parameter is set to beλ 025 the UCL is stable at UCL 00234 and theprocess is determined to be out of control at the 60thinspection

Since the Shewhart I-chart monitors the performance ofthe motorized spindle only based on observed data at in-dividual inspections it is less sensitive in detecting degra-dation with small and moderate change trends incomparison with the EWMA chart [30] However in thecase of monitoring the hazard rate of the tested spindle theresults of the EWMA chart show little significant deviationcomparing to the Shewhart I-chart which is mostly theconsequence of using the hazard rate from the proposedPHM as the monitoring statistic (e model could com-promise multiple information based on time series in orderto eliminate autocorrelation in the process and reduce theinfluence of the random error As a result the two types ofchartsrsquo abilities for gradual degradation detection aresatisfactory

54 CBM Schedule Optimization To build the final CBMmodel the established SPC chart is keen to be updated andoptimized by finding optimal UCLlowast which is used to triggercorresponding maintenance actions so that the inspectionand maintenance cost can be minimized

In the current case the tested spindle is inspected every 4 hours the cost of each inspection Ciis ¥30 (epreventive replacement cost Cpis ¥500 and the correctivereplacement cost Ccis ¥6000 To simplify the analysisPdand Pfare set to be 0 and Puand Pnare set to be 1 whichreduce the four scenarios to two for the control chart Fi-nally the CBM model can be interpreted as follows

Scenario 1 (S1) the motorized spindle remains incontrol until a hard failure occurs in the interval(4k 4(k + 1)) A corrective replacement is imple-mented and restores the spindle to its initial conditionScenario 2 (S2) the motorized spindle degrades to theout-of-control condition in the interval (4k 4(k + 1))and the SPC chart succeeds to detect it at 4(k + 1) Apreventive replacement is carried out and restores thespindle to its initial condition

As a result the long-run cost rate is obtained through thefollowing formula

Based on the vibration signals at each inspection of thedegradation process RMS is found to follow the normaldistribution with parameters μ(t)and σ(t) (e changes ofthe two parameters with time are studied with respect to the93 inspections which are expressed as

(rough optimization of equation (11) the optimalCBM schedule is finally obtained with UCLlowast 00524 andthe minimal long-run cost rate is c 151942 which isshown as the red-marked circle in Figure 7(a) According toequation (3) the RMS threshold versus the testing time ofthe motorized spindle can be obtained and depicted inFigure 7(b) (e result also has certain directive significancein practical application because the preventive replacementcan be simply triggered when the RMS observation at theinspection exceeds the RMS threshold

6 Conclusions

(e proposed three-stage approach in this paper is com-mitted to fusing various degradation features monitoringthe degradation process and developing the optimal CBMplans for motorized spindles (e combined effect of con-dition features degrading over time together with failureevents is interpreted by the PHM and SPC charts are thenintroduced to monitor the changing trend of the hazard rateobtained from the PHM Application of the SPC charts withperiodic hazard rate inspections helps in CBM modellingand four possible scenarios are defined to constitute themaintenance model At last the CBM plan with minimumlong-run cost is obtained by seeking for the optimal UCL

(e feasibility and practicability of the approach areproved by a case study using the actual spindle vibrationdata (e analysis results indicate that the PHM contributesto describing the degradation states of the motorized spindlemore accurately and three different time-domain featuresare extracted from the raw vibration signals and are used ascovariates in the PHM RMS is verified to have the bestfitting effect of the experimental data

(e proposed approach allows not only maintenanceoptimization but also accurate characterization of healthdegradation It can help maintenance technicians andmanagers reduce breakdown time delete unnecessarymaintenance actions and minimize maintenance costs in anintuitive and efficient way (e approach in this paper canalso be applied for the motorized spindle operating in CNCmachine tools for intelligent manufacturing in order toachieve better performance and a longer life of the wholemanufacturing supply chain

CBM is that it could deduce the hazard rate considering allcovariates in the current state such as the failure event andcondition monitoring factors According to the PHM thehazard rate at time t is defined by

h(t Z(t)) h0(t)exp(cZ(t)) (1)

where h0(t) is the baseline hazard rate at time t and it will becontinually modified by Z(t) let Z(t) [Z1(t) Z2(t) middot middot middot

Zn(t)] be a vector made up of values of n conditionmonitoring features at time t which is a time-dependentstochastic process representing the degradation evolutionAnd c is a vector made up of regression coefficients whichdetermines the influence weight of the monitoring featureson the failure rate

(e time to failure of the electromechanical systemcommonly follows the Weibull distribution [23] As formotorized spindles their baseline hazard rate of the PHM isassumed to be derived from a two-parameter Weibull dis-tribution which has the expression as

According to the monitoring data of multiple featuresand the failure event data the parameters of the WPHM canbe estimated by the maximum likelihood method Since themotorized spindle may run to failure or be maintainedbefore failures in the actual CBM process the failure eventdata collected involve both time to failure and censored timeTaking these data types into consideration the likelihoodfunction is given by

As a result the hazard rate in real-time operation can beextracted by the PHM it is adopted as the health indicatorinterpreting the current performance state In the next stepSPC techniques will be applied to monitor the changingtrend of the hazard rate and provide CBM decision support

32 Integrated Model and Optimization In the case ofcombining SPC charts with CBM scheduling for mainte-nance strategy optimization of motorized spindles fourpossible scenarios of the integrated CBM model can occurduring a renewal cycle as shown in Figure 2 A renewal cycleis identified as the period between start of process

monitoring and a maintenance activity [25] and the fourdifferent scenarios are further illustrated as follows

Scenario 1 (S1) the performance of the motorizedspindle remains in control with no false out-of-controlalarm which is interpreted as h(t Z(t))leUCLWhen ahard failure occurs in the interval(kΔ (k + 1)Δ) k 0 1 middot middot middot n a corrective replace-ment is immediately implemented and restores thespindle to its initial conditionScenario 2 (S2) the performance of the motorizedspindle remains in control until a false out-of-controlalarm is given at (k + 1)Δ k 0 1 middot middot middot n A preventivereplacement is performed and restores the spindle to itsinitial conditionScenario 3 (S3) the performance of the motorizedspindle shifts to the out-of-control condition in theinterval (k1Δ (k1 + 1)Δ) k1 0 1 middot middot middot n which isinterpreted as h(t Z(t))leUCL However the SPCchart fails to capture an alert signal until the systemresults in a hard failure in the interval(k2Δ (k2 + 1)Δ) k2 0 1 middot middot middot n A corrective re-placement is then executed and restores the spindle toits initial conditionScenario 4 (S4) the performance of the motorizedspindle degrades to the out-of-control condition in theinterval (k1Δ (k1 + 1)Δ) k1 0 1 middot middot middot n minus 1 and theSPC chart succeeds to detect the out-of-control signalat k2Δ k2 k1 + 1 middot middot middot n A preventive replacement iscarried out and restores the spindle to its initialcondition

Considering the four possible scenarios the averagelong-run CBM cost c can be transformed to the expectedcost over the expected length of a renewal cycle [26] which isgiven by

4 The Three-Stage Approach forCBM Optimization

In this section the proposed approach developed to monitorthe health degradation and optimize the CBM schedule formotorized spindles is described in Figure 3 (e approach iscomposed of three stages involving health indicator ex-traction degradation condition monitoring and CBM op-timization In order to implement this approach the PHM isconstructed and the hazard rate is estimated which is thenapplied in SPC charts as the monitoring statistic At lastcombining SPC with CBM management an integratedoptimization model is given to develop the maintenanceplan andminimize the average long-run cost of maintenanceby searching for the optimal control limits

(e three stages of the proposed approach are outlined asfollows

Stage 1 (construction of the PHM) the model isadopted to extract the estimation of the Stage 2 (es-tablishment of the SPC charts) as long as the pa-rameters of the PHM are estimated with the trainingdata the test data can be collected and plugged into themodel to obtain the hazard rate as the degradationfeature to be monitored (e samples of the hazard rateare then plotted on the control chart with the corre-sponding central line (CL) and UCL which can becomputed as Table 1 according to the selected charttypeStage 2 (establishment of the SPC charts) as longas the parameters of the PHM are estimated with thetraining data the test data can be collected and pluggedinto the model to obtain the hazard rate as the deg-radation feature to be monitored (e samples of thehazard rate are then plotted on the control chart withthe corresponding central line (CL) and UCL whichcan be computed as Table 1 according to the selectedchart typehazard rate by the fusion of event data andcondition monitoring data (is stage is illustrated indetail as follows

Step 1 (data acquisition) (e performance of mo-torized spindles mainly depends on their key func-tional components such as the bearings the toolclamping system and the rotary unions [26](erefore these components would be focused byinstalling additional sensors and different signals arecollected comprising vibration current forceacoustic emission temperature leakage flow etc [19]in order to describe the degradation characteristics ofthe system more accuratelyStep 2 (data preprocessing and feature extraction)Using the collected life cycle signals of the monitoredspindle to select the typical features in time fre-quency and time-frequency domains approachessuch as principal component analysis can be adoptedfor the purpose of reducing the dimension of featureswhile keeping the information with the largest con-tribution to describe system degradation processStep 3 (health indicator estimation) Combining theextracted features from the condition monitoring

system with failure event data in the lifetime ofmotorized spindles the PHM is constructed and itsparameters are estimated with the training samples(erefore the hazard rate observation can be obtainedas the health indicator for the next stage of degra-dation condition monitoring

Stage 2 (establishment of the SPC charts) as long as theparameters of the PHM are estimated with the trainingdata the test data can be collected and plugged into themodel to obtain the hazard rate as the degradationfeature to be monitored (e samples of the hazard rateare then plotted on the control chart with the corre-sponding central line (CL) and UCL which can becomputed as Table 1 according to the selected charttype(e chart is then adopted as a tool for anomaly de-tection and a trigger for maintenance activities Inparticular if a sample point plotted on the SPC chart iswithin the UCL the system is considered as in-controland the periodic inspection and daily health manage-ment are maintained Otherwise the system is definedas out of control which implies that the degradationlevel exceeds an acceptable threshold and a preventivereplacement is performed Meanwhile a failure of thesystem could occur during both in-control and out-of-control phases which will trigger a correctivereplacementStage 3 (optimization of the CBM) based on theaforementioned maintenance strategy the monitoringsystem integrating SPC charts and PHM is furtherdeveloped for CBM optimization Four differentscenarios that can describe the possibilities in mon-itoring process are taken into account in order toestablish the CBM model Each scenario is ended by amaintenance activity and the monitored system isrestarted as a new cycle with an ldquoas good as newrdquocondition Finally the SPC chart is updated and theoptimal CBM schedule is obtained through mini-mizing the average long-run cost during a renewalcycle by optimizing the UCL

5 Case Study

(eproposed three-stage approach is applied to a real case ofthe motorized spindle in order to illustrate its strongpracticability (e developing process of degradation andfailure of motorized spindles are mainly blamed on bearingfailures clamping device rubbing and rotary union loos-ening which can be characterized by vibration signals [27](erefore the case reported here is based on vibration signalanalysis in particular

51 Experimental Setup (e failure events and conditionmonitoring data sets are generated from the motorizedspindle going through run-to-failure experiments underconstant rotary speed at 4000 RPM (e experiment rig isshown in Figure 4

6 Mathematical Problems in Engineering

(e experimental setup is designed considering thestructure of the motorized spindle which is shown inFigure 4(a) the spindle can be subjected to the cuttingtorque provided by the dynamometer joined to the toolholder with the couplings and the biaxial cutting forcesprovided by the axial and radial loading systems(e spindleis kept running 12 hours per day except for irregularequipment adjustment and unexpected failures

Based on experimental requirements two PCB 356A15triaxial high sensitivity ceramic shear ICP accelerometersare installed on the front face and the back face of themotorized spindle respectively (e specific placement is

circled in Figures 4(b) and 4(c) and the vibration signal iscollected every 4 hours by ADLINKrsquos USB-24054-CH 24-bit 128 kSs dynamic signal acquisition (e test and thecondition monitoring system are controlled by LabVIEWprogram

52 Feature Extraction and PHMConstruction (e trainingdata collected include time of inspections time to failurecensored time and vibration signal Each inspection lasts atleast 30 seconds which contains 150000 vibration signalswith the sampling rate of 5 kHz A total of 246 inspectionsspanning over 1000-hour operation test on the tested mo-torized spindle are conducted During the whole experi-mental period 7 hard failures and 5 suspensions areobserved Among them the 7 failures are considered asunexpected functional failures and the 5 suspensions aredue to adjustments of experimental equipment

Only the x-axial vibration measurements were used foranalysis and three commonly used time-domain features areextracted from the lifetime vibration data of the testedspindle(e technicians believe that the selected features cancontain essential information to interpret the specific failurewell [28] (e features as derived in [29] are summarized inTable 5

PHMs with different features are fitted and K-S good-ness-of-fit tests are performed to obtain a better model (eparameters and the test statistics of hazard rate functions areestimated and listed in Table 6 (e traditional Weibulldistribution without incorporating any feature is also fittedand its result is shown in Table 6 as Model 1

It implies in Table 6 that the significance of RMS in thePHM is greater than kurtosis and crest factor In additionthe fitting effect of the PHM integrating with condition

monitoring features is better than the traditional Weibulldistribution Since the PHM with RMS has the lowest K-Sstatistic of 02190 and the highest p value of 08255 com-paring with the other models in the table the PHM withRMS is selected for further degradation monitoring andmaintenance decision of the motorized spindle and itsparameters are estimated as β 20046 η 1513602 andc1 10768

53 SPC Establishment and Degradation Monitoring For amonitored renewal cycle of themotorized spindle a life cycleof 372 hours with 93 inspections in total is adopted to obtainthe 93 testing values of RMS as the lifetime features whichare shown in Figure 5(a) (en the set of RMS is pluggedinto the PHM obtained from the training data set in Section52 and the hazard rate is calculated and plotted inFigure 5(b)

(e hazard rate set of the testing cycle is then used asmonitored health indicators (e SPC charts introduced inSection 2 are constructed as supports for anomaly detectionand CBM optimization (e Shewhart I-chart and theEWMA chart are taken as examples which are shown inFigures 6(a) and 6(b) In the case of monitoring the hazardrate only UCL and CL are essential (e red solid linesrepresent the UCLs of the charts the green-dotted linesrepresent the CLs of the charts the black dots are corre-sponding statistics derived from the testing data of thehazard rate and the marked purple circles are degradationstates determined to be out of control

To be more specific the two charts are establishedfollowing the rules in Table 1 As for the Shewhart I-chartin Figure 6(a) the estimated process mean μ0 00219the estimated process standard deviation σ0 00013UCL 00258 CL 00219 and the control limit widthn 3 and the process is determined to be out of control atthe 62nd inspection Figure 6(b) depicts the results of theEWMA chart whose weight parameter is set to beλ 025 the UCL is stable at UCL 00234 and theprocess is determined to be out of control at the 60thinspection

Since the Shewhart I-chart monitors the performance ofthe motorized spindle only based on observed data at in-dividual inspections it is less sensitive in detecting degra-dation with small and moderate change trends incomparison with the EWMA chart [30] However in thecase of monitoring the hazard rate of the tested spindle theresults of the EWMA chart show little significant deviationcomparing to the Shewhart I-chart which is mostly theconsequence of using the hazard rate from the proposedPHM as the monitoring statistic (e model could com-promise multiple information based on time series in orderto eliminate autocorrelation in the process and reduce theinfluence of the random error As a result the two types ofchartsrsquo abilities for gradual degradation detection aresatisfactory

54 CBM Schedule Optimization To build the final CBMmodel the established SPC chart is keen to be updated andoptimized by finding optimal UCLlowast which is used to triggercorresponding maintenance actions so that the inspectionand maintenance cost can be minimized

In the current case the tested spindle is inspected every 4 hours the cost of each inspection Ciis ¥30 (epreventive replacement cost Cpis ¥500 and the correctivereplacement cost Ccis ¥6000 To simplify the analysisPdand Pfare set to be 0 and Puand Pnare set to be 1 whichreduce the four scenarios to two for the control chart Fi-nally the CBM model can be interpreted as follows

Scenario 1 (S1) the motorized spindle remains incontrol until a hard failure occurs in the interval(4k 4(k + 1)) A corrective replacement is imple-mented and restores the spindle to its initial conditionScenario 2 (S2) the motorized spindle degrades to theout-of-control condition in the interval (4k 4(k + 1))and the SPC chart succeeds to detect it at 4(k + 1) Apreventive replacement is carried out and restores thespindle to its initial condition

As a result the long-run cost rate is obtained through thefollowing formula

Based on the vibration signals at each inspection of thedegradation process RMS is found to follow the normaldistribution with parameters μ(t)and σ(t) (e changes ofthe two parameters with time are studied with respect to the93 inspections which are expressed as

6 Conclusions

(e proposed three-stage approach in this paper is com-mitted to fusing various degradation features monitoringthe degradation process and developing the optimal CBMplans for motorized spindles (e combined effect of con-dition features degrading over time together with failureevents is interpreted by the PHM and SPC charts are thenintroduced to monitor the changing trend of the hazard rateobtained from the PHM Application of the SPC charts withperiodic hazard rate inspections helps in CBM modellingand four possible scenarios are defined to constitute themaintenance model At last the CBM plan with minimumlong-run cost is obtained by seeking for the optimal UCL

(e feasibility and practicability of the approach areproved by a case study using the actual spindle vibrationdata (e analysis results indicate that the PHM contributesto describing the degradation states of the motorized spindlemore accurately and three different time-domain featuresare extracted from the raw vibration signals and are used ascovariates in the PHM RMS is verified to have the bestfitting effect of the experimental data

(e proposed approach allows not only maintenanceoptimization but also accurate characterization of healthdegradation It can help maintenance technicians andmanagers reduce breakdown time delete unnecessarymaintenance actions and minimize maintenance costs in anintuitive and efficient way (e approach in this paper canalso be applied for the motorized spindle operating in CNCmachine tools for intelligent manufacturing in order toachieve better performance and a longer life of the wholemanufacturing supply chain

According to the monitoring data of multiple featuresand the failure event data the parameters of the WPHM canbe estimated by the maximum likelihood method Since themotorized spindle may run to failure or be maintainedbefore failures in the actual CBM process the failure eventdata collected involve both time to failure and censored timeTaking these data types into consideration the likelihoodfunction is given by

As a result the hazard rate in real-time operation can beextracted by the PHM it is adopted as the health indicatorinterpreting the current performance state In the next stepSPC techniques will be applied to monitor the changingtrend of the hazard rate and provide CBM decision support

32 Integrated Model and Optimization In the case ofcombining SPC charts with CBM scheduling for mainte-nance strategy optimization of motorized spindles fourpossible scenarios of the integrated CBM model can occurduring a renewal cycle as shown in Figure 2 A renewal cycleis identified as the period between start of process

monitoring and a maintenance activity [25] and the fourdifferent scenarios are further illustrated as follows

Scenario 1 (S1) the performance of the motorizedspindle remains in control with no false out-of-controlalarm which is interpreted as h(t Z(t))leUCLWhen ahard failure occurs in the interval(kΔ (k + 1)Δ) k 0 1 middot middot middot n a corrective replace-ment is immediately implemented and restores thespindle to its initial conditionScenario 2 (S2) the performance of the motorizedspindle remains in control until a false out-of-controlalarm is given at (k + 1)Δ k 0 1 middot middot middot n A preventivereplacement is performed and restores the spindle to itsinitial conditionScenario 3 (S3) the performance of the motorizedspindle shifts to the out-of-control condition in theinterval (k1Δ (k1 + 1)Δ) k1 0 1 middot middot middot n which isinterpreted as h(t Z(t))leUCL However the SPCchart fails to capture an alert signal until the systemresults in a hard failure in the interval(k2Δ (k2 + 1)Δ) k2 0 1 middot middot middot n A corrective re-placement is then executed and restores the spindle toits initial conditionScenario 4 (S4) the performance of the motorizedspindle degrades to the out-of-control condition in theinterval (k1Δ (k1 + 1)Δ) k1 0 1 middot middot middot n minus 1 and theSPC chart succeeds to detect the out-of-control signalat k2Δ k2 k1 + 1 middot middot middot n A preventive replacement iscarried out and restores the spindle to its initialcondition

4 The Three-Stage Approach forCBM Optimization

In this section the proposed approach developed to monitorthe health degradation and optimize the CBM schedule formotorized spindles is described in Figure 3 (e approach iscomposed of three stages involving health indicator ex-traction degradation condition monitoring and CBM op-timization In order to implement this approach the PHM isconstructed and the hazard rate is estimated which is thenapplied in SPC charts as the monitoring statistic At lastcombining SPC with CBM management an integratedoptimization model is given to develop the maintenanceplan andminimize the average long-run cost of maintenanceby searching for the optimal control limits

(e three stages of the proposed approach are outlined asfollows

Stage 1 (construction of the PHM) the model isadopted to extract the estimation of the Stage 2 (es-tablishment of the SPC charts) as long as the pa-rameters of the PHM are estimated with the trainingdata the test data can be collected and plugged into themodel to obtain the hazard rate as the degradationfeature to be monitored (e samples of the hazard rateare then plotted on the control chart with the corre-sponding central line (CL) and UCL which can becomputed as Table 1 according to the selected charttypeStage 2 (establishment of the SPC charts) as longas the parameters of the PHM are estimated with thetraining data the test data can be collected and pluggedinto the model to obtain the hazard rate as the deg-radation feature to be monitored (e samples of thehazard rate are then plotted on the control chart withthe corresponding central line (CL) and UCL whichcan be computed as Table 1 according to the selectedchart typehazard rate by the fusion of event data andcondition monitoring data (is stage is illustrated indetail as follows

Step 1 (data acquisition) (e performance of mo-torized spindles mainly depends on their key func-tional components such as the bearings the toolclamping system and the rotary unions [26](erefore these components would be focused byinstalling additional sensors and different signals arecollected comprising vibration current forceacoustic emission temperature leakage flow etc [19]in order to describe the degradation characteristics ofthe system more accuratelyStep 2 (data preprocessing and feature extraction)Using the collected life cycle signals of the monitoredspindle to select the typical features in time fre-quency and time-frequency domains approachessuch as principal component analysis can be adoptedfor the purpose of reducing the dimension of featureswhile keeping the information with the largest con-tribution to describe system degradation processStep 3 (health indicator estimation) Combining theextracted features from the condition monitoring

system with failure event data in the lifetime ofmotorized spindles the PHM is constructed and itsparameters are estimated with the training samples(erefore the hazard rate observation can be obtainedas the health indicator for the next stage of degra-dation condition monitoring

Stage 2 (establishment of the SPC charts) as long as theparameters of the PHM are estimated with the trainingdata the test data can be collected and plugged into themodel to obtain the hazard rate as the degradationfeature to be monitored (e samples of the hazard rateare then plotted on the control chart with the corre-sponding central line (CL) and UCL which can becomputed as Table 1 according to the selected charttype(e chart is then adopted as a tool for anomaly de-tection and a trigger for maintenance activities Inparticular if a sample point plotted on the SPC chart iswithin the UCL the system is considered as in-controland the periodic inspection and daily health manage-ment are maintained Otherwise the system is definedas out of control which implies that the degradationlevel exceeds an acceptable threshold and a preventivereplacement is performed Meanwhile a failure of thesystem could occur during both in-control and out-of-control phases which will trigger a correctivereplacementStage 3 (optimization of the CBM) based on theaforementioned maintenance strategy the monitoringsystem integrating SPC charts and PHM is furtherdeveloped for CBM optimization Four differentscenarios that can describe the possibilities in mon-itoring process are taken into account in order toestablish the CBM model Each scenario is ended by amaintenance activity and the monitored system isrestarted as a new cycle with an ldquoas good as newrdquocondition Finally the SPC chart is updated and theoptimal CBM schedule is obtained through mini-mizing the average long-run cost during a renewalcycle by optimizing the UCL

5 Case Study

(eproposed three-stage approach is applied to a real case ofthe motorized spindle in order to illustrate its strongpracticability (e developing process of degradation andfailure of motorized spindles are mainly blamed on bearingfailures clamping device rubbing and rotary union loos-ening which can be characterized by vibration signals [27](erefore the case reported here is based on vibration signalanalysis in particular

51 Experimental Setup (e failure events and conditionmonitoring data sets are generated from the motorizedspindle going through run-to-failure experiments underconstant rotary speed at 4000 RPM (e experiment rig isshown in Figure 4

6 Mathematical Problems in Engineering

(e experimental setup is designed considering thestructure of the motorized spindle which is shown inFigure 4(a) the spindle can be subjected to the cuttingtorque provided by the dynamometer joined to the toolholder with the couplings and the biaxial cutting forcesprovided by the axial and radial loading systems(e spindleis kept running 12 hours per day except for irregularequipment adjustment and unexpected failures

Based on experimental requirements two PCB 356A15triaxial high sensitivity ceramic shear ICP accelerometersare installed on the front face and the back face of themotorized spindle respectively (e specific placement is

circled in Figures 4(b) and 4(c) and the vibration signal iscollected every 4 hours by ADLINKrsquos USB-24054-CH 24-bit 128 kSs dynamic signal acquisition (e test and thecondition monitoring system are controlled by LabVIEWprogram

52 Feature Extraction and PHMConstruction (e trainingdata collected include time of inspections time to failurecensored time and vibration signal Each inspection lasts atleast 30 seconds which contains 150000 vibration signalswith the sampling rate of 5 kHz A total of 246 inspectionsspanning over 1000-hour operation test on the tested mo-torized spindle are conducted During the whole experi-mental period 7 hard failures and 5 suspensions areobserved Among them the 7 failures are considered asunexpected functional failures and the 5 suspensions aredue to adjustments of experimental equipment

Only the x-axial vibration measurements were used foranalysis and three commonly used time-domain features areextracted from the lifetime vibration data of the testedspindle(e technicians believe that the selected features cancontain essential information to interpret the specific failurewell [28] (e features as derived in [29] are summarized inTable 5

PHMs with different features are fitted and K-S good-ness-of-fit tests are performed to obtain a better model (eparameters and the test statistics of hazard rate functions areestimated and listed in Table 6 (e traditional Weibulldistribution without incorporating any feature is also fittedand its result is shown in Table 6 as Model 1

It implies in Table 6 that the significance of RMS in thePHM is greater than kurtosis and crest factor In additionthe fitting effect of the PHM integrating with condition

monitoring features is better than the traditional Weibulldistribution Since the PHM with RMS has the lowest K-Sstatistic of 02190 and the highest p value of 08255 com-paring with the other models in the table the PHM withRMS is selected for further degradation monitoring andmaintenance decision of the motorized spindle and itsparameters are estimated as β 20046 η 1513602 andc1 10768

53 SPC Establishment and Degradation Monitoring For amonitored renewal cycle of themotorized spindle a life cycleof 372 hours with 93 inspections in total is adopted to obtainthe 93 testing values of RMS as the lifetime features whichare shown in Figure 5(a) (en the set of RMS is pluggedinto the PHM obtained from the training data set in Section52 and the hazard rate is calculated and plotted inFigure 5(b)

(e hazard rate set of the testing cycle is then used asmonitored health indicators (e SPC charts introduced inSection 2 are constructed as supports for anomaly detectionand CBM optimization (e Shewhart I-chart and theEWMA chart are taken as examples which are shown inFigures 6(a) and 6(b) In the case of monitoring the hazardrate only UCL and CL are essential (e red solid linesrepresent the UCLs of the charts the green-dotted linesrepresent the CLs of the charts the black dots are corre-sponding statistics derived from the testing data of thehazard rate and the marked purple circles are degradationstates determined to be out of control

To be more specific the two charts are establishedfollowing the rules in Table 1 As for the Shewhart I-chartin Figure 6(a) the estimated process mean μ0 00219the estimated process standard deviation σ0 00013UCL 00258 CL 00219 and the control limit widthn 3 and the process is determined to be out of control atthe 62nd inspection Figure 6(b) depicts the results of theEWMA chart whose weight parameter is set to beλ 025 the UCL is stable at UCL 00234 and theprocess is determined to be out of control at the 60thinspection

Since the Shewhart I-chart monitors the performance ofthe motorized spindle only based on observed data at in-dividual inspections it is less sensitive in detecting degra-dation with small and moderate change trends incomparison with the EWMA chart [30] However in thecase of monitoring the hazard rate of the tested spindle theresults of the EWMA chart show little significant deviationcomparing to the Shewhart I-chart which is mostly theconsequence of using the hazard rate from the proposedPHM as the monitoring statistic (e model could com-promise multiple information based on time series in orderto eliminate autocorrelation in the process and reduce theinfluence of the random error As a result the two types ofchartsrsquo abilities for gradual degradation detection aresatisfactory

54 CBM Schedule Optimization To build the final CBMmodel the established SPC chart is keen to be updated andoptimized by finding optimal UCLlowast which is used to triggercorresponding maintenance actions so that the inspectionand maintenance cost can be minimized

In the current case the tested spindle is inspected every 4 hours the cost of each inspection Ciis ¥30 (epreventive replacement cost Cpis ¥500 and the correctivereplacement cost Ccis ¥6000 To simplify the analysisPdand Pfare set to be 0 and Puand Pnare set to be 1 whichreduce the four scenarios to two for the control chart Fi-nally the CBM model can be interpreted as follows

Scenario 1 (S1) the motorized spindle remains incontrol until a hard failure occurs in the interval(4k 4(k + 1)) A corrective replacement is imple-mented and restores the spindle to its initial conditionScenario 2 (S2) the motorized spindle degrades to theout-of-control condition in the interval (4k 4(k + 1))and the SPC chart succeeds to detect it at 4(k + 1) Apreventive replacement is carried out and restores thespindle to its initial condition

As a result the long-run cost rate is obtained through thefollowing formula

6 Conclusions

(e proposed three-stage approach in this paper is com-mitted to fusing various degradation features monitoringthe degradation process and developing the optimal CBMplans for motorized spindles (e combined effect of con-dition features degrading over time together with failureevents is interpreted by the PHM and SPC charts are thenintroduced to monitor the changing trend of the hazard rateobtained from the PHM Application of the SPC charts withperiodic hazard rate inspections helps in CBM modellingand four possible scenarios are defined to constitute themaintenance model At last the CBM plan with minimumlong-run cost is obtained by seeking for the optimal UCL

(e feasibility and practicability of the approach areproved by a case study using the actual spindle vibrationdata (e analysis results indicate that the PHM contributesto describing the degradation states of the motorized spindlemore accurately and three different time-domain featuresare extracted from the raw vibration signals and are used ascovariates in the PHM RMS is verified to have the bestfitting effect of the experimental data

(e proposed approach allows not only maintenanceoptimization but also accurate characterization of healthdegradation It can help maintenance technicians andmanagers reduce breakdown time delete unnecessarymaintenance actions and minimize maintenance costs in anintuitive and efficient way (e approach in this paper canalso be applied for the motorized spindle operating in CNCmachine tools for intelligent manufacturing in order toachieve better performance and a longer life of the wholemanufacturing supply chain

4 The Three-Stage Approach forCBM Optimization

In this section the proposed approach developed to monitorthe health degradation and optimize the CBM schedule formotorized spindles is described in Figure 3 (e approach iscomposed of three stages involving health indicator ex-traction degradation condition monitoring and CBM op-timization In order to implement this approach the PHM isconstructed and the hazard rate is estimated which is thenapplied in SPC charts as the monitoring statistic At lastcombining SPC with CBM management an integratedoptimization model is given to develop the maintenanceplan andminimize the average long-run cost of maintenanceby searching for the optimal control limits

(e three stages of the proposed approach are outlined asfollows

Stage 1 (construction of the PHM) the model isadopted to extract the estimation of the Stage 2 (es-tablishment of the SPC charts) as long as the pa-rameters of the PHM are estimated with the trainingdata the test data can be collected and plugged into themodel to obtain the hazard rate as the degradationfeature to be monitored (e samples of the hazard rateare then plotted on the control chart with the corre-sponding central line (CL) and UCL which can becomputed as Table 1 according to the selected charttypeStage 2 (establishment of the SPC charts) as longas the parameters of the PHM are estimated with thetraining data the test data can be collected and pluggedinto the model to obtain the hazard rate as the deg-radation feature to be monitored (e samples of thehazard rate are then plotted on the control chart withthe corresponding central line (CL) and UCL whichcan be computed as Table 1 according to the selectedchart typehazard rate by the fusion of event data andcondition monitoring data (is stage is illustrated indetail as follows

Step 1 (data acquisition) (e performance of mo-torized spindles mainly depends on their key func-tional components such as the bearings the toolclamping system and the rotary unions [26](erefore these components would be focused byinstalling additional sensors and different signals arecollected comprising vibration current forceacoustic emission temperature leakage flow etc [19]in order to describe the degradation characteristics ofthe system more accuratelyStep 2 (data preprocessing and feature extraction)Using the collected life cycle signals of the monitoredspindle to select the typical features in time fre-quency and time-frequency domains approachessuch as principal component analysis can be adoptedfor the purpose of reducing the dimension of featureswhile keeping the information with the largest con-tribution to describe system degradation processStep 3 (health indicator estimation) Combining theextracted features from the condition monitoring

system with failure event data in the lifetime ofmotorized spindles the PHM is constructed and itsparameters are estimated with the training samples(erefore the hazard rate observation can be obtainedas the health indicator for the next stage of degra-dation condition monitoring

Stage 2 (establishment of the SPC charts) as long as theparameters of the PHM are estimated with the trainingdata the test data can be collected and plugged into themodel to obtain the hazard rate as the degradationfeature to be monitored (e samples of the hazard rateare then plotted on the control chart with the corre-sponding central line (CL) and UCL which can becomputed as Table 1 according to the selected charttype(e chart is then adopted as a tool for anomaly de-tection and a trigger for maintenance activities Inparticular if a sample point plotted on the SPC chart iswithin the UCL the system is considered as in-controland the periodic inspection and daily health manage-ment are maintained Otherwise the system is definedas out of control which implies that the degradationlevel exceeds an acceptable threshold and a preventivereplacement is performed Meanwhile a failure of thesystem could occur during both in-control and out-of-control phases which will trigger a correctivereplacementStage 3 (optimization of the CBM) based on theaforementioned maintenance strategy the monitoringsystem integrating SPC charts and PHM is furtherdeveloped for CBM optimization Four differentscenarios that can describe the possibilities in mon-itoring process are taken into account in order toestablish the CBM model Each scenario is ended by amaintenance activity and the monitored system isrestarted as a new cycle with an ldquoas good as newrdquocondition Finally the SPC chart is updated and theoptimal CBM schedule is obtained through mini-mizing the average long-run cost during a renewalcycle by optimizing the UCL

5 Case Study

(eproposed three-stage approach is applied to a real case ofthe motorized spindle in order to illustrate its strongpracticability (e developing process of degradation andfailure of motorized spindles are mainly blamed on bearingfailures clamping device rubbing and rotary union loos-ening which can be characterized by vibration signals [27](erefore the case reported here is based on vibration signalanalysis in particular

51 Experimental Setup (e failure events and conditionmonitoring data sets are generated from the motorizedspindle going through run-to-failure experiments underconstant rotary speed at 4000 RPM (e experiment rig isshown in Figure 4

6 Mathematical Problems in Engineering

(e experimental setup is designed considering thestructure of the motorized spindle which is shown inFigure 4(a) the spindle can be subjected to the cuttingtorque provided by the dynamometer joined to the toolholder with the couplings and the biaxial cutting forcesprovided by the axial and radial loading systems(e spindleis kept running 12 hours per day except for irregularequipment adjustment and unexpected failures

Based on experimental requirements two PCB 356A15triaxial high sensitivity ceramic shear ICP accelerometersare installed on the front face and the back face of themotorized spindle respectively (e specific placement is

circled in Figures 4(b) and 4(c) and the vibration signal iscollected every 4 hours by ADLINKrsquos USB-24054-CH 24-bit 128 kSs dynamic signal acquisition (e test and thecondition monitoring system are controlled by LabVIEWprogram

52 Feature Extraction and PHMConstruction (e trainingdata collected include time of inspections time to failurecensored time and vibration signal Each inspection lasts atleast 30 seconds which contains 150000 vibration signalswith the sampling rate of 5 kHz A total of 246 inspectionsspanning over 1000-hour operation test on the tested mo-torized spindle are conducted During the whole experi-mental period 7 hard failures and 5 suspensions areobserved Among them the 7 failures are considered asunexpected functional failures and the 5 suspensions aredue to adjustments of experimental equipment

Only the x-axial vibration measurements were used foranalysis and three commonly used time-domain features areextracted from the lifetime vibration data of the testedspindle(e technicians believe that the selected features cancontain essential information to interpret the specific failurewell [28] (e features as derived in [29] are summarized inTable 5

PHMs with different features are fitted and K-S good-ness-of-fit tests are performed to obtain a better model (eparameters and the test statistics of hazard rate functions areestimated and listed in Table 6 (e traditional Weibulldistribution without incorporating any feature is also fittedand its result is shown in Table 6 as Model 1

It implies in Table 6 that the significance of RMS in thePHM is greater than kurtosis and crest factor In additionthe fitting effect of the PHM integrating with condition

monitoring features is better than the traditional Weibulldistribution Since the PHM with RMS has the lowest K-Sstatistic of 02190 and the highest p value of 08255 com-paring with the other models in the table the PHM withRMS is selected for further degradation monitoring andmaintenance decision of the motorized spindle and itsparameters are estimated as β 20046 η 1513602 andc1 10768

53 SPC Establishment and Degradation Monitoring For amonitored renewal cycle of themotorized spindle a life cycleof 372 hours with 93 inspections in total is adopted to obtainthe 93 testing values of RMS as the lifetime features whichare shown in Figure 5(a) (en the set of RMS is pluggedinto the PHM obtained from the training data set in Section52 and the hazard rate is calculated and plotted inFigure 5(b)

(e hazard rate set of the testing cycle is then used asmonitored health indicators (e SPC charts introduced inSection 2 are constructed as supports for anomaly detectionand CBM optimization (e Shewhart I-chart and theEWMA chart are taken as examples which are shown inFigures 6(a) and 6(b) In the case of monitoring the hazardrate only UCL and CL are essential (e red solid linesrepresent the UCLs of the charts the green-dotted linesrepresent the CLs of the charts the black dots are corre-sponding statistics derived from the testing data of thehazard rate and the marked purple circles are degradationstates determined to be out of control

To be more specific the two charts are establishedfollowing the rules in Table 1 As for the Shewhart I-chartin Figure 6(a) the estimated process mean μ0 00219the estimated process standard deviation σ0 00013UCL 00258 CL 00219 and the control limit widthn 3 and the process is determined to be out of control atthe 62nd inspection Figure 6(b) depicts the results of theEWMA chart whose weight parameter is set to beλ 025 the UCL is stable at UCL 00234 and theprocess is determined to be out of control at the 60thinspection

Since the Shewhart I-chart monitors the performance ofthe motorized spindle only based on observed data at in-dividual inspections it is less sensitive in detecting degra-dation with small and moderate change trends incomparison with the EWMA chart [30] However in thecase of monitoring the hazard rate of the tested spindle theresults of the EWMA chart show little significant deviationcomparing to the Shewhart I-chart which is mostly theconsequence of using the hazard rate from the proposedPHM as the monitoring statistic (e model could com-promise multiple information based on time series in orderto eliminate autocorrelation in the process and reduce theinfluence of the random error As a result the two types ofchartsrsquo abilities for gradual degradation detection aresatisfactory

54 CBM Schedule Optimization To build the final CBMmodel the established SPC chart is keen to be updated andoptimized by finding optimal UCLlowast which is used to triggercorresponding maintenance actions so that the inspectionand maintenance cost can be minimized

In the current case the tested spindle is inspected every 4 hours the cost of each inspection Ciis ¥30 (epreventive replacement cost Cpis ¥500 and the correctivereplacement cost Ccis ¥6000 To simplify the analysisPdand Pfare set to be 0 and Puand Pnare set to be 1 whichreduce the four scenarios to two for the control chart Fi-nally the CBM model can be interpreted as follows

Scenario 1 (S1) the motorized spindle remains incontrol until a hard failure occurs in the interval(4k 4(k + 1)) A corrective replacement is imple-mented and restores the spindle to its initial conditionScenario 2 (S2) the motorized spindle degrades to theout-of-control condition in the interval (4k 4(k + 1))and the SPC chart succeeds to detect it at 4(k + 1) Apreventive replacement is carried out and restores thespindle to its initial condition

As a result the long-run cost rate is obtained through thefollowing formula

4 The Three-Stage Approach forCBM Optimization

In this section the proposed approach developed to monitorthe health degradation and optimize the CBM schedule formotorized spindles is described in Figure 3 (e approach iscomposed of three stages involving health indicator ex-traction degradation condition monitoring and CBM op-timization In order to implement this approach the PHM isconstructed and the hazard rate is estimated which is thenapplied in SPC charts as the monitoring statistic At lastcombining SPC with CBM management an integratedoptimization model is given to develop the maintenanceplan andminimize the average long-run cost of maintenanceby searching for the optimal control limits

(e three stages of the proposed approach are outlined asfollows

Stage 1 (construction of the PHM) the model isadopted to extract the estimation of the Stage 2 (es-tablishment of the SPC charts) as long as the pa-rameters of the PHM are estimated with the trainingdata the test data can be collected and plugged into themodel to obtain the hazard rate as the degradationfeature to be monitored (e samples of the hazard rateare then plotted on the control chart with the corre-sponding central line (CL) and UCL which can becomputed as Table 1 according to the selected charttypeStage 2 (establishment of the SPC charts) as longas the parameters of the PHM are estimated with thetraining data the test data can be collected and pluggedinto the model to obtain the hazard rate as the deg-radation feature to be monitored (e samples of thehazard rate are then plotted on the control chart withthe corresponding central line (CL) and UCL whichcan be computed as Table 1 according to the selectedchart typehazard rate by the fusion of event data andcondition monitoring data (is stage is illustrated indetail as follows

Step 1 (data acquisition) (e performance of mo-torized spindles mainly depends on their key func-tional components such as the bearings the toolclamping system and the rotary unions [26](erefore these components would be focused byinstalling additional sensors and different signals arecollected comprising vibration current forceacoustic emission temperature leakage flow etc [19]in order to describe the degradation characteristics ofthe system more accuratelyStep 2 (data preprocessing and feature extraction)Using the collected life cycle signals of the monitoredspindle to select the typical features in time fre-quency and time-frequency domains approachessuch as principal component analysis can be adoptedfor the purpose of reducing the dimension of featureswhile keeping the information with the largest con-tribution to describe system degradation processStep 3 (health indicator estimation) Combining theextracted features from the condition monitoring

system with failure event data in the lifetime ofmotorized spindles the PHM is constructed and itsparameters are estimated with the training samples(erefore the hazard rate observation can be obtainedas the health indicator for the next stage of degra-dation condition monitoring

Stage 2 (establishment of the SPC charts) as long as theparameters of the PHM are estimated with the trainingdata the test data can be collected and plugged into themodel to obtain the hazard rate as the degradationfeature to be monitored (e samples of the hazard rateare then plotted on the control chart with the corre-sponding central line (CL) and UCL which can becomputed as Table 1 according to the selected charttype(e chart is then adopted as a tool for anomaly de-tection and a trigger for maintenance activities Inparticular if a sample point plotted on the SPC chart iswithin the UCL the system is considered as in-controland the periodic inspection and daily health manage-ment are maintained Otherwise the system is definedas out of control which implies that the degradationlevel exceeds an acceptable threshold and a preventivereplacement is performed Meanwhile a failure of thesystem could occur during both in-control and out-of-control phases which will trigger a correctivereplacementStage 3 (optimization of the CBM) based on theaforementioned maintenance strategy the monitoringsystem integrating SPC charts and PHM is furtherdeveloped for CBM optimization Four differentscenarios that can describe the possibilities in mon-itoring process are taken into account in order toestablish the CBM model Each scenario is ended by amaintenance activity and the monitored system isrestarted as a new cycle with an ldquoas good as newrdquocondition Finally the SPC chart is updated and theoptimal CBM schedule is obtained through mini-mizing the average long-run cost during a renewalcycle by optimizing the UCL

5 Case Study

(eproposed three-stage approach is applied to a real case ofthe motorized spindle in order to illustrate its strongpracticability (e developing process of degradation andfailure of motorized spindles are mainly blamed on bearingfailures clamping device rubbing and rotary union loos-ening which can be characterized by vibration signals [27](erefore the case reported here is based on vibration signalanalysis in particular

51 Experimental Setup (e failure events and conditionmonitoring data sets are generated from the motorizedspindle going through run-to-failure experiments underconstant rotary speed at 4000 RPM (e experiment rig isshown in Figure 4

6 Mathematical Problems in Engineering

(e experimental setup is designed considering thestructure of the motorized spindle which is shown inFigure 4(a) the spindle can be subjected to the cuttingtorque provided by the dynamometer joined to the toolholder with the couplings and the biaxial cutting forcesprovided by the axial and radial loading systems(e spindleis kept running 12 hours per day except for irregularequipment adjustment and unexpected failures

Based on experimental requirements two PCB 356A15triaxial high sensitivity ceramic shear ICP accelerometersare installed on the front face and the back face of themotorized spindle respectively (e specific placement is

circled in Figures 4(b) and 4(c) and the vibration signal iscollected every 4 hours by ADLINKrsquos USB-24054-CH 24-bit 128 kSs dynamic signal acquisition (e test and thecondition monitoring system are controlled by LabVIEWprogram

52 Feature Extraction and PHMConstruction (e trainingdata collected include time of inspections time to failurecensored time and vibration signal Each inspection lasts atleast 30 seconds which contains 150000 vibration signalswith the sampling rate of 5 kHz A total of 246 inspectionsspanning over 1000-hour operation test on the tested mo-torized spindle are conducted During the whole experi-mental period 7 hard failures and 5 suspensions areobserved Among them the 7 failures are considered asunexpected functional failures and the 5 suspensions aredue to adjustments of experimental equipment

Only the x-axial vibration measurements were used foranalysis and three commonly used time-domain features areextracted from the lifetime vibration data of the testedspindle(e technicians believe that the selected features cancontain essential information to interpret the specific failurewell [28] (e features as derived in [29] are summarized inTable 5

PHMs with different features are fitted and K-S good-ness-of-fit tests are performed to obtain a better model (eparameters and the test statistics of hazard rate functions areestimated and listed in Table 6 (e traditional Weibulldistribution without incorporating any feature is also fittedand its result is shown in Table 6 as Model 1

It implies in Table 6 that the significance of RMS in thePHM is greater than kurtosis and crest factor In additionthe fitting effect of the PHM integrating with condition

monitoring features is better than the traditional Weibulldistribution Since the PHM with RMS has the lowest K-Sstatistic of 02190 and the highest p value of 08255 com-paring with the other models in the table the PHM withRMS is selected for further degradation monitoring andmaintenance decision of the motorized spindle and itsparameters are estimated as β 20046 η 1513602 andc1 10768

53 SPC Establishment and Degradation Monitoring For amonitored renewal cycle of themotorized spindle a life cycleof 372 hours with 93 inspections in total is adopted to obtainthe 93 testing values of RMS as the lifetime features whichare shown in Figure 5(a) (en the set of RMS is pluggedinto the PHM obtained from the training data set in Section52 and the hazard rate is calculated and plotted inFigure 5(b)

(e hazard rate set of the testing cycle is then used asmonitored health indicators (e SPC charts introduced inSection 2 are constructed as supports for anomaly detectionand CBM optimization (e Shewhart I-chart and theEWMA chart are taken as examples which are shown inFigures 6(a) and 6(b) In the case of monitoring the hazardrate only UCL and CL are essential (e red solid linesrepresent the UCLs of the charts the green-dotted linesrepresent the CLs of the charts the black dots are corre-sponding statistics derived from the testing data of thehazard rate and the marked purple circles are degradationstates determined to be out of control

To be more specific the two charts are establishedfollowing the rules in Table 1 As for the Shewhart I-chartin Figure 6(a) the estimated process mean μ0 00219the estimated process standard deviation σ0 00013UCL 00258 CL 00219 and the control limit widthn 3 and the process is determined to be out of control atthe 62nd inspection Figure 6(b) depicts the results of theEWMA chart whose weight parameter is set to beλ 025 the UCL is stable at UCL 00234 and theprocess is determined to be out of control at the 60thinspection

Since the Shewhart I-chart monitors the performance ofthe motorized spindle only based on observed data at in-dividual inspections it is less sensitive in detecting degra-dation with small and moderate change trends incomparison with the EWMA chart [30] However in thecase of monitoring the hazard rate of the tested spindle theresults of the EWMA chart show little significant deviationcomparing to the Shewhart I-chart which is mostly theconsequence of using the hazard rate from the proposedPHM as the monitoring statistic (e model could com-promise multiple information based on time series in orderto eliminate autocorrelation in the process and reduce theinfluence of the random error As a result the two types ofchartsrsquo abilities for gradual degradation detection aresatisfactory

54 CBM Schedule Optimization To build the final CBMmodel the established SPC chart is keen to be updated andoptimized by finding optimal UCLlowast which is used to triggercorresponding maintenance actions so that the inspectionand maintenance cost can be minimized

In the current case the tested spindle is inspected every 4 hours the cost of each inspection Ciis ¥30 (epreventive replacement cost Cpis ¥500 and the correctivereplacement cost Ccis ¥6000 To simplify the analysisPdand Pfare set to be 0 and Puand Pnare set to be 1 whichreduce the four scenarios to two for the control chart Fi-nally the CBM model can be interpreted as follows

Scenario 1 (S1) the motorized spindle remains incontrol until a hard failure occurs in the interval(4k 4(k + 1)) A corrective replacement is imple-mented and restores the spindle to its initial conditionScenario 2 (S2) the motorized spindle degrades to theout-of-control condition in the interval (4k 4(k + 1))and the SPC chart succeeds to detect it at 4(k + 1) Apreventive replacement is carried out and restores thespindle to its initial condition

As a result the long-run cost rate is obtained through thefollowing formula

Based on the vibration signals at each inspection of thedegradation process RMS is found to follow the normaldistribution with parameters μ(t)and σ(t) (e changes ofthe two parameters with time are studied with respect to the93 inspections which are expressed as

μ(t) 011 exp 114 times 10minus 3t1113872 1113873 + 896 times 10minus16 exp(009t)

(erefore the probability that the hazard rate exceedsUCL at time t is derived as

P(h(t)gtUCL) 1 minusΦD minus μ(t)

σ(t)1113888 1113889 (13)

(rough optimization of equation (11) the optimalCBM schedule is finally obtained with UCLlowast 00524 andthe minimal long-run cost rate is c 151942 which isshown as the red-marked circle in Figure 7(a) According toequation (3) the RMS threshold versus the testing time ofthe motorized spindle can be obtained and depicted inFigure 7(b) (e result also has certain directive significancein practical application because the preventive replacementcan be simply triggered when the RMS observation at theinspection exceeds the RMS threshold

(e experimental setup is designed considering thestructure of the motorized spindle which is shown inFigure 4(a) the spindle can be subjected to the cuttingtorque provided by the dynamometer joined to the toolholder with the couplings and the biaxial cutting forcesprovided by the axial and radial loading systems(e spindleis kept running 12 hours per day except for irregularequipment adjustment and unexpected failures

Based on experimental requirements two PCB 356A15triaxial high sensitivity ceramic shear ICP accelerometersare installed on the front face and the back face of themotorized spindle respectively (e specific placement is

circled in Figures 4(b) and 4(c) and the vibration signal iscollected every 4 hours by ADLINKrsquos USB-24054-CH 24-bit 128 kSs dynamic signal acquisition (e test and thecondition monitoring system are controlled by LabVIEWprogram

52 Feature Extraction and PHMConstruction (e trainingdata collected include time of inspections time to failurecensored time and vibration signal Each inspection lasts atleast 30 seconds which contains 150000 vibration signalswith the sampling rate of 5 kHz A total of 246 inspectionsspanning over 1000-hour operation test on the tested mo-torized spindle are conducted During the whole experi-mental period 7 hard failures and 5 suspensions areobserved Among them the 7 failures are considered asunexpected functional failures and the 5 suspensions aredue to adjustments of experimental equipment

Only the x-axial vibration measurements were used foranalysis and three commonly used time-domain features areextracted from the lifetime vibration data of the testedspindle(e technicians believe that the selected features cancontain essential information to interpret the specific failurewell [28] (e features as derived in [29] are summarized inTable 5

PHMs with different features are fitted and K-S good-ness-of-fit tests are performed to obtain a better model (eparameters and the test statistics of hazard rate functions areestimated and listed in Table 6 (e traditional Weibulldistribution without incorporating any feature is also fittedand its result is shown in Table 6 as Model 1

monitoring features is better than the traditional Weibulldistribution Since the PHM with RMS has the lowest K-Sstatistic of 02190 and the highest p value of 08255 com-paring with the other models in the table the PHM withRMS is selected for further degradation monitoring andmaintenance decision of the motorized spindle and itsparameters are estimated as β 20046 η 1513602 andc1 10768

53 SPC Establishment and Degradation Monitoring For amonitored renewal cycle of themotorized spindle a life cycleof 372 hours with 93 inspections in total is adopted to obtainthe 93 testing values of RMS as the lifetime features whichare shown in Figure 5(a) (en the set of RMS is pluggedinto the PHM obtained from the training data set in Section52 and the hazard rate is calculated and plotted inFigure 5(b)

(e hazard rate set of the testing cycle is then used asmonitored health indicators (e SPC charts introduced inSection 2 are constructed as supports for anomaly detectionand CBM optimization (e Shewhart I-chart and theEWMA chart are taken as examples which are shown inFigures 6(a) and 6(b) In the case of monitoring the hazardrate only UCL and CL are essential (e red solid linesrepresent the UCLs of the charts the green-dotted linesrepresent the CLs of the charts the black dots are corre-sponding statistics derived from the testing data of thehazard rate and the marked purple circles are degradationstates determined to be out of control

To be more specific the two charts are establishedfollowing the rules in Table 1 As for the Shewhart I-chartin Figure 6(a) the estimated process mean μ0 00219the estimated process standard deviation σ0 00013UCL 00258 CL 00219 and the control limit widthn 3 and the process is determined to be out of control atthe 62nd inspection Figure 6(b) depicts the results of theEWMA chart whose weight parameter is set to beλ 025 the UCL is stable at UCL 00234 and theprocess is determined to be out of control at the 60thinspection

Since the Shewhart I-chart monitors the performance ofthe motorized spindle only based on observed data at in-dividual inspections it is less sensitive in detecting degra-dation with small and moderate change trends incomparison with the EWMA chart [30] However in thecase of monitoring the hazard rate of the tested spindle theresults of the EWMA chart show little significant deviationcomparing to the Shewhart I-chart which is mostly theconsequence of using the hazard rate from the proposedPHM as the monitoring statistic (e model could com-promise multiple information based on time series in orderto eliminate autocorrelation in the process and reduce theinfluence of the random error As a result the two types ofchartsrsquo abilities for gradual degradation detection aresatisfactory

54 CBM Schedule Optimization To build the final CBMmodel the established SPC chart is keen to be updated andoptimized by finding optimal UCLlowast which is used to triggercorresponding maintenance actions so that the inspectionand maintenance cost can be minimized

In the current case the tested spindle is inspected every 4 hours the cost of each inspection Ciis ¥30 (epreventive replacement cost Cpis ¥500 and the correctivereplacement cost Ccis ¥6000 To simplify the analysisPdand Pfare set to be 0 and Puand Pnare set to be 1 whichreduce the four scenarios to two for the control chart Fi-nally the CBM model can be interpreted as follows

Scenario 1 (S1) the motorized spindle remains incontrol until a hard failure occurs in the interval(4k 4(k + 1)) A corrective replacement is imple-mented and restores the spindle to its initial conditionScenario 2 (S2) the motorized spindle degrades to theout-of-control condition in the interval (4k 4(k + 1))and the SPC chart succeeds to detect it at 4(k + 1) Apreventive replacement is carried out and restores thespindle to its initial condition

As a result the long-run cost rate is obtained through thefollowing formula

Based on the vibration signals at each inspection of thedegradation process RMS is found to follow the normaldistribution with parameters μ(t)and σ(t) (e changes ofthe two parameters with time are studied with respect to the93 inspections which are expressed as

6 Conclusions

(e proposed three-stage approach in this paper is com-mitted to fusing various degradation features monitoringthe degradation process and developing the optimal CBMplans for motorized spindles (e combined effect of con-dition features degrading over time together with failureevents is interpreted by the PHM and SPC charts are thenintroduced to monitor the changing trend of the hazard rateobtained from the PHM Application of the SPC charts withperiodic hazard rate inspections helps in CBM modellingand four possible scenarios are defined to constitute themaintenance model At last the CBM plan with minimumlong-run cost is obtained by seeking for the optimal UCL

(e feasibility and practicability of the approach areproved by a case study using the actual spindle vibrationdata (e analysis results indicate that the PHM contributesto describing the degradation states of the motorized spindlemore accurately and three different time-domain featuresare extracted from the raw vibration signals and are used ascovariates in the PHM RMS is verified to have the bestfitting effect of the experimental data

(e proposed approach allows not only maintenanceoptimization but also accurate characterization of healthdegradation It can help maintenance technicians andmanagers reduce breakdown time delete unnecessarymaintenance actions and minimize maintenance costs in anintuitive and efficient way (e approach in this paper canalso be applied for the motorized spindle operating in CNCmachine tools for intelligent manufacturing in order toachieve better performance and a longer life of the wholemanufacturing supply chain

6 Conclusions

(e proposed three-stage approach in this paper is com-mitted to fusing various degradation features monitoringthe degradation process and developing the optimal CBMplans for motorized spindles (e combined effect of con-dition features degrading over time together with failureevents is interpreted by the PHM and SPC charts are thenintroduced to monitor the changing trend of the hazard rateobtained from the PHM Application of the SPC charts withperiodic hazard rate inspections helps in CBM modellingand four possible scenarios are defined to constitute themaintenance model At last the CBM plan with minimumlong-run cost is obtained by seeking for the optimal UCL

(e feasibility and practicability of the approach areproved by a case study using the actual spindle vibrationdata (e analysis results indicate that the PHM contributesto describing the degradation states of the motorized spindlemore accurately and three different time-domain featuresare extracted from the raw vibration signals and are used ascovariates in the PHM RMS is verified to have the bestfitting effect of the experimental data

(e proposed approach allows not only maintenanceoptimization but also accurate characterization of healthdegradation It can help maintenance technicians andmanagers reduce breakdown time delete unnecessarymaintenance actions and minimize maintenance costs in anintuitive and efficient way (e approach in this paper canalso be applied for the motorized spindle operating in CNCmachine tools for intelligent manufacturing in order toachieve better performance and a longer life of the wholemanufacturing supply chain
