1. Introduction Within the new era of Industry 4.0 and digitalization, the concept of Zero-Defect Manufacturing (ZDM) is one of the most promising strategies to decrease and mitigate failures in industrial processes and states the philosophy of “doing things right the first time” [1]. It is based on the ability to incorporate digital technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) [2,3], as well as advancements in smart machine tool system architecture [4].
