Claim One:
1. A method for predicting machining quality of a machine tool, the method comprising: correlating each of at least one product accuracy item with a plurality of operation paths of the machine tool, thereby obtaining a plurality of relationships between the at least one product accuracy item and the operation paths, wherein the at least one product accuracy item comprises measurement items related to a dimensional or geometric deviation, and the operation paths of the machine tool determines the at least one product accuracy item respectively; operating the machine tool to machine a plurality of workpiece samples along each of the operation paths, and collecting a plurality of sets of sample sensing data of the machine tool while the machine tool is machining the workpiece samples along each of the operation paths, wherein the sets of sample sensing data belong to each of the operation paths and are corresponding to the workpiece samples respectively, and are obtained from at least one sensor installed on the machining tool, the sets of sample sensing data comprising vibration data generated by the machine tool in operation; measuring the at least one product accuracy item of each workpiece sample, thereby obtaining at least one set of quality sample data of the workpiece samples for the at least one product accuracy item, wherein the at least one product accuracy item is determined by each of the operation paths in accordance with the relationships; filtering and converting the set of sample sensing data corresponding to each workpiece sample into at least one set of sample feature data corresponding to at least one feature type comprising a time domain, a frequency domain and/or a time-frequency domain; establishing a predictive model corresponding to each of the operation paths with respect to the at least one product accuracy item using the at least one set of sample feature data corresponding to each workpiece sample and the at least one set of quality sample data of the workpiece samples in accordance with a predictive algorithm; operating the machine tool to machine a workpiece according to each of the operation paths, and collecting a set of sensing data of the machine tool that is machining the workpiece along each of the operation paths, wherein the set of sensing data is obtained from the at least one sensor installed on the machining tool, the set of sensing data comprising vibration generated by the machine tool in operation; filtering and converting the set of sample sensing data corresponding to the workpiece into at least one set of feature data corresponding to at least one feature type; and inputting the at least one set of feature data corresponding to the workpiece into the predictive model to conjecture at least one predicted accuracy value of the workpiece with respect to the at least one product accuracy item, thereby predicting the machining quality of the machine tool.
