CNC machine tools play an important role in manufacturing and are characterized by high total energy consumption and low energy efficiency. The energy consumption characteristics of the machine tool itself determine the total energy consumption and pollutant emission during its service life. Therefore, it is particularly important to design machine tools with energy consumption as the optimization target to analyze the composition of energy consumption and related characteristics, build a corresponding model based on reliability verification, guide the structural design and optimization according to the model, and ultimately use the evaluation system to evaluate and judge the overall energy consumption. In this paper, from four perspectives—the composition of the energy consumption of machine tools, modeling methods, design and optimization methods, and evaluation methods—with energy consumption optimization as the entry point, we analyze the research on CNC machine tools based on energy consumption around the world. The research results indicate that we should look forward to the role of energy consumption in the design of machine tools.

The knowledge of energy consumption of different machine tool production processes leading to products is necessary for energy labeling of machined parts in the increasingly sustainability-aware world thus the need for better machining energy modeling techniques. The milling process dynamics is complicated thus numerical and averaging techniques are hitherto usually applied in the cutting energy modeling thus limiting decision-making. This work proposes a generalized force-based closed-form model for the milling process cutting energy. To the best of the author’s knowledge, the model is the first closed-form cutting energy model for milling which not only applies to the conventional cylindrical milling tools with constant helix angle but also to cylindrical milling tools with any helix angle variation. The demonstrated applications of the proposed model include modeling of milling machine electrical energy consumption, modeling/optimization of milling project energy/efficiency and helix angle optimization for passive reduction of cutting energy. The proposed model is checked with experimentally-verified results in literature. For example, the model agrees with numerically computed cutting energy in literature by absolute error of 0.0320%–0.4025% and modeling of milling machine electrical energy consumption using the proposed model recorded the goodness-of-fit indices of 0.9980 [Formula: see text]-value and −0.1271 mean percentage error compared to a published experimental data. A parametric plot and an optimization based on genetic algorithm showed that increase of helix angle increases cutting energy due to increased influence of edge forces, and the effect is more pronounced at higher helix angles. Various potential applications of the presented model are highlighted in the concluding section.
