A method for synchronous control of a gantry mechanism with online inertia matching is applicable to a machine tool equipped with a gantry mechanism. The gantry mechanism includes two rails, a crossbeam and a saddle, in which the saddle is disposed on the crossbeam, and the crossbeam is disposed by crossing the two rails. Each of the two rails is furnished with a driving apparatus for synchronously driving the crossbeam, and the driving apparatus includes a drive motor and a lead screw. This method includes the steps of: obtaining gantry-mechanism information; detecting position information of the saddle on the crossbeam; evaluating the position information and the gantry-mechanism information to derive load-inertia variety information; and, evaluating the load-inertia variety information to adjust torque-output information of the drive motor corresponding to the respective driving apparatus.

A detection device, detection method, and compensation method for tool wear, applied to a machine tool including a spindle connected to a tool. A first parameter set including a first cutting depth having a zero cutting depth is set, and the machine tool performs a cutting procedure with the first parameter set to record a first loading rate of the spindle. A second parameter set including a second cutting depth having a non-zero cutting depth is set, and the machine tool performs the cutting procedure with the second parameter set to record a second loading rate of the spindle. A processing device calculates an estimated cutting force according to the loading rates and a machine performance database. A fuzzy logic unit outputs a wear level according to a tool wear database and the estimated cutting force. The machine tool adjusts a cutting locus according to the wear level.
