“…Process control, in simple terms, is the activity of regulating a process using an automated control system based on process measurements. Several publications have reviewed the state of the art in the advancements of a manufacturing process control at a generic level spanning multiple process control techniques [17,18,28] or within specific application areas [6,29]. Part quality and dimensional integrity are two important factors governing the productivity of machine tools especially in high-speed regimes [17,28] and, hence, several strategies for control of servo-systems, estimating contour error, tool path profile planning, feed-rate scheduling for cycle time optimization, tool condition monitoring, and overall productivity optimization have been developed [17].…”
