Stamping processes remain crucial in manufacturing processes; therefore, diagnosing the condition of stamping tools is critical. One of the challenges in diagnosing stamping tool conditions is that traditionally, the tools need to be visually checked, and the production processes thus need to be halted. With the development of Industry 4.0, intelligent monitoring systems have been developed by using accelerometers and algorithms to diagnose the wear classification of stamping tools. Although several deep learning models such as the convolutional neural network (CNN), auto encoder (AE), and recurrent neural network (RNN) models have demonstrated promising results for classifying complex signals including accelerometer signals, the practicality of those methods are restricted due to the flexibility of adding new classes and low accuracy when faced to low numbers of samples per class. In this study, we applied deep metric learning (DML) methods to overcome these problems. DML involves extracting meaningful features using feature extraction modules to map inputs into embedding features. We compared the probability method, the contrastive method, and a triplet network to determine which method was most suitable for our case. The experimental results revealed that, compared with other models, a triplet network can be more effectively trained with limited training data. The triplet network demonstrated the best test results of the compared methods in the noised test data. Finally, when tested using unseen class, the triplet network and the probability method demonstrated similar results.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
