avoid the occurrence of the above phenomenon in CNC machine tools, it is necessary to monitor tool wear accordingly. When the
tool wears out, the load will increase on the spindle motor of the machine tool. At the same time, the voltage and current of the

An actuator is a component of a machine that is responsible for moving and controlling a mechanism or system, for example by opening a valve. In simple
terms, it is a "mover". When it receives a control signal, an actuator responds by converting the source's energy into mechanical motion.
