가장 대표적인 공작기계인 선반은 가공물에대한 바이트의 이송운동에따라 여러가지 종류의 가공물을 효과적으로 절삭할 수 있기 때문에 절삭 가공에 널리사용된다. 특히, 기계요소로 많이 사용되는 회전체의 절삭에 필요하므로 가장 먼저자동화가 요구되는 분야이다. 그러므로, 보다 효율적인 자동절삭의 목표를 달성하기위한 기초작업으로서 현재의 연구가 수행되었다. 본 연구에서 PC 사용을 전제로 소수의 입력 정보로부터 자동으로 최적의 가공계획 수립을 위한 프로그램의 개발을 목표로 먼저 준비단계로 임의의 외경절삭용 자동 가공계획 시스템을 개발하였다. 개발된 프로그램은 작업자의 자료입력을 최소화 했으며 이 입력자료를 토대로 자동으로 절삭공구의 가공경로 및 절삭에 필요한 자료를 생성하고 가공 전과정을 컴퓨터 그래픽으로 처리하여 사용자의 이해 를 돕도록 하였다. 이러한 기능은 컴퓨터 기억장치를 통하여 저장하고 그장된 자료를 NC code화 하거나 직접 PC로 부터 NC 기계를 구동하면 가공에 관하여 극히 초보자인 경우도 실제 가공을 수 행할 수 있다. 참고로 본 프로그램은 개인용 컴퓨터에서 사용을 전제로 프로그램언어는 Fortran, 그래픽 Library로 Halo를 이용하였고사용자의 이해를 보다 높이기 위하여 EGA Color Monitor를 채택하였다.

기계 부품을 설계함에 있어 솔리드 모델링 시스템의 사용을 골격으로 하는 CAD 시스템의 사용은 삼차원 모델링된 단일 물체에 대한 물성치(mass property)의 계산, FEM 해석을 위한 유한요소의 자동생성, 곡면에 대한 NC 공구경로(NC tool path)의 자동계산, 부품의 생산을 위한 가공 정보의 도출 등의 분야에 많은 도움을 주어 설계와 생산, 관리의 전 분야에 혁신적 효율화를 도모해주었다. 한편 이렇게 설계된 단품들은 대개의 경우 조립되어 조립체를 이루게 되고, 그 상태로 혹은 부품간에 상대운동을 하면서 원하는 기능을 구현하게 된다. 단품에 대해서처럼 이 과정에서도 CAD 시스템은 조립체의 삼차원 형상을 인식하고 필요한 정보를 제공해줌으로써 설계자에게 유용한 도구로 사용될 수 있는데 이를 조립체 모델링 시스템(Assembly Modeling System)이라 부르며, 현재에는 대부분의 솔리드 모델링 시스템에 그 기능이 채택되어 있다. 조립체 모델링에 관한 연구동향을 비교적 잘 정리한 문헌으로는 Turner와 Libardi의 것을 들 수 있다. 여기서는 이러한 조립체 모델링 시스템의 연구분야와 동향에 대해 또 나름으로의 시각으로 정리하였다.

An interactive computer program has been developed to design a pattern and risers for the production of castings of high quality. In our system, the user models the shape of a final product by using the system's modeling capability, a pattern is generated in a three dimensional model by eliminating the holes and adding shrinkage allowances and drafts, the proper riser is created automatically, and they are united together to yield the three dimensional model of the portion of a mold assembly. The mold can be completed after the runners and the gating systems are designed, modeled, and united, which will be described in part 2 of this work. The unique feature of this work is a realization of an automatic design of the pattern and risers by integrating the modeling capabilities and the design equations used in the real practice.

A practically useful CAD system for mold design in the plastic injection molding processes has been developed. Even though many efforts have been tried to simulated the injection molding process, this is the first attempt toward an automatic mold design system instead of a manufacturing or a simulation system. In this system the computational routines, the data base for mold design, and the routines for three dimensional modeling are blended together so that the designed mold is obtained as a solid model. For this development, the following problems have been solved. First, the modeling capability of the plastic parts has been implemented by incorporating the modeling routines of a constructive solid geometric modeling system and developing a constant thickness modeling conditions, and that of standard mold bases have been established. Third, the experimental know-how and the empirical formulae have been collected and blended together with the modeling routines of a geometric modeling system to provide the high level commands for designing mold.

As the culture of making things based on "do-it-yourself" (DIY) activity is increasingly promoted, the use of recent digital technologies and tools, including the 3D printer, have become widespread. However, the use of computerized numerical control (CNC) engraving machine is considered difficult because of the complicated procedures and specialized knowledge required for its operation. Therefore, this study aims to resolve the issue that limits the usability of the CNC engraving machine. This paper presents a novel CNC engraving machine system for non-experts based on human-centered design. First, the size and type of the workpiece and tool are reduced. Second, computer-aided process planning (CAPP) steps such as tool path generation, workpiece clamping, and corresponding coordinate system are automated by compromising productivity and efficiency. As a result, a CNC engraving machine system that can be easily used by non-experts was developed. This development has great significance in that it opens up the possibility of using the CNC engraving machine for a wider range of DIY activities.

The sheet parts are formed with dies conventionally. But this conventional forming process is not suited to small volume and varied production for the reason of high cost. For the solution of this problem, a new forming process, which is called CNC incremental sheet forming, is being introduced. This process can form sheet parts without die, and is very well suited to small volume and varied production in space flight and automobile. In this paper, dieless CNC forming system based on a machining center is developed. A special device to grasp and pull the blank sheet built in the machining center and tool path generation S/W from STL file of 3-D model are developed. Several sheet parts are incrementally formed to verify the effectiveness of the developed system.

In this paper, we propose a knowledge-based method for generating CNC torch path for laser cutting of the outlines of planar shapes. The proposed method consists of two main phases: laser cutting knowledge construction and CNC torch path generation using the knowledge. In the first phase, cutting experiments are conducted on various operating parameters, and then empirical data are stored and analyzed to make up the knowledge of laser cutting. With this knowledge, we can inquire what a kerf width is for specific operating parameters. In the second phase, using the knowledge of laser cutting, CNC torch path is generated for cutting the outlines of the given planar shapes. This phase is basically based on the offset generation of each outline by a sequence of arc splines, where the offset distance is the same as the half of the kerf width determined from the constructed knowledge. The proposed method based on laser cutting knowledge makes full use of arc interpolators in CNC torch path generation. The method can efficiently reduce the number of path segments while keeping the torch path within the desired accuracy.

Phase-only encryption scheme using exclusive-OR rules in Fourier plane and a single path decryption system are presented. A zero-padded original image, multiplied by a random phase image, is Fourier transformed and its real-valued data is encrypted with key data by using XOR rules. A decryption is simply performed based on 2-1 setup with spatial filter by Fourier transform for multiplying phase-only encrypted data by phase-only key data, which are obtained by phase-encoding process, and spatial filtering for zero-order elimination in inverse-Fourier plane. Since the encryption process is peformed in Fourier plane, proposed encryption scheme is more tolerant to loss of key information by scratching or cutting than previous XOR encryption method in space domain. Compare with previous phase-visualization systems, due to the simple architecture without a reference wave, our system is basically robust to mechanical vibrations and fluctuations. Numerical simulations have confirmed the proposed technique as high-level encryption and simple decryption architecture.

The curved surface machined by plate end mill causes a excess non-cutting volume, in these cases ball end mill is used for the curved surfaces. This study is aimed to obtain the optimum cutting conditions of various cutting speed, table speed, tool diameter, radius of curvature roughness on the conditions of various cutting speed, tool diameter, radius of curvature when machining the curved surface using the ball end mill. After designing curve rates, obtaining NC data by CAD/CAM system through CC-Cartesian method and transferred the data through DNC system, we machined the specimens by the CNC machining center, The surface roughness of specimens was measured by surface roughness tester and CNC 3D coordinate measuring machine. The cutting condition were the same as follow velocity; 15, 20, 25 30m/min, feed rate;40, 60, 80, 100m/min and radius of curvature; 30,40,50,60mm, tool diameters; ø8, ø12, ø16, ø 20mm. Analizing the working results, we can acquire the optimum cutting condition of curved specimen at the cutting velocity of 20~25m/min and the feed rate of 80mm/min. As the same cutting condition the best surface roughness was showed at ø16mm of the tool diameter. But the tool diameter was smaller than ø8mm. we could improve for the surface roughness by controlling the cusp.
