Monitoring Flow-Forming Processes Using Design of Experiments and a Machine Learning Approach Based on Randomized-Supervised Time Series Forest and Recursive Feature Elimination.

The machines of WF Maschinenbau process metal blanks into various workpieces using so-called flow-forming processes. The quality of these workpieces depends largely on the quality of the blanks and the condition of the machine. This creates an urgent need for automated monitoring of the forming processes and the condition of the machine.
