Abstract: Cutting force measurement is of great importance in machining processes. Hence, various methods of measuring the cutting force have been proposed by many researchers. In this work, a novel integrated rotating dynamometer based on fiber Bragg grating (FBG) was designed, constructed, and tested to measure four-component cutting force. The dynamometer consists of FBGs that are pasted on the newly designed elastic structure which is then mounted on the rotating spindle. The elastic structure is designed as two mutual-perpendicular semi-octagonal rings. The signals of the FBGs are transmitted to FBG interrogator via fiber optic rotary joints and optical fiber, and the wavelength values are displayed on a computer. In order to determine the static and dynamic characteristics, many tests have been done. The results show that it is suitable for measuring cutting force. Keywords: cutting force; rotating dynamometer; fiber Bragg grating (FBG); arcuate beam

1. Introduction Nowadays, real-time on-line monitoring of cutting force is an essential requirement in the machining processes. As one of the most significant machining process variables, cutting force can be used to optimize cutting parameters, improve cutting conditions, investigate cutting tools performance, predict the surface roughness, monitor tool wear or failure, and others. Commonly, studies about cutting force measurement mainly focus on direct measurement and indirect measurement of cutting force. Indirect measurement always detects the power or current of the spindle motor or the driving motor to reflect the cutting force [1–4]. Besides, some researchers work on measuring the displacement of the machining tool spindle [5,6]. The indirect measurement has the advantages of simple structures and easy installation. However, the signals from electrical transducers are susceptible to forces of temperature, transmission, mechanical structure, and so on, so it is difficult to measure the cutting force precisely. Direct measurement of cutting force can be divided into two parts according to the installation, which are clamped on the table and mounted on the spindle. No matter what the dynamometer is, it usually utilizes an elastic structure to convert cutting force into strain, and then detects the strain by sensing elements. In table dynamometers, elastic structures include the octagonal ring [7,8], the oval octagonal ring [9], the ring [10], and so on. For rotating dynamometers mounted on the spindle, elastic structures consist of a cylindrical deformation beam [11], Γ beam-type [12,13], E-type diaphragm [14,15] and others. In contrast to table dynamometers, rotating dynamometers have several advantages, such as less intermediate force transmission components, allowing for various cutting tools sizes and force configurations. From the sensing elements, there are capacitive [11], strain gauge [13–16], piezoelectric [17–19], fiber Bragg grating (FBG) [10,20,21], and so
