Digital twin technology offers the advantage of monitoring the status of equipment, systems, and more in a virtual environment, allowing validation through simulation. This technology has found numerous applications in the industrial robotics field, driven by recent advancements in the manufacturing industry. Consequently, predicting machining quality using digital twin technology is imperative for ensuring high-quality processed goods. In this study, we developed a digital twin program based on a cutting-force physical model and created a performance enhancement module that allows the visualization of material removal for user convenience. The predicted cutting forces from both conventional CNC and the physical model demonstrate a high accuracy of within 2%. Within the digital twin environment, the error rate for the robotic drilling process is 13.5%. Building upon this, we developed and validated a module for material removal visualization, aiming to increase convenience for on-site operators.
