The wear process of end mill is a so complicated process that a more reliable technique is required for the monitoring and controling the tool life and its performance. This research presents a new tool wear monitoring method based on the sound signal generated on the machining. The experiment carried out continuous-side-milling for using the high-speed steel end mill under wet condition. The sound pressure was measured at 0.5m from the cutting zone by a dynamic microphone, and was analyzed at frequency domain. The tooth passing frequency appears as a harmonics form, and end mill wear is related with the first harmonic. It can be concluded from the result that the tool wear is correlate with the intensity of the measured sound at tooth passing frequency estimation of end mill wear using sound is possible through frequency analysis at tooth passing frequency under the given circumstances.

This paper shown how to measure the machining error in diameter of cylindrical workpiece and compensate the measured machining error in NC turning. Machining error is measured by the electric micrometer mounted on the tool post with the NC part program for probe location path analyzed. Correct NC part program for finish turning is automatically generated to compensate the measured machining error. These concepts have been effectively introduced to a newly developed software for error compensation. In turning experiments with the developed error compensation system, machining error was almost within the specified tolerance, which reveals the effectiveness of the developed system.

As the requirement of LCD products which are large screen and have high brightness increases, the role of light guide panel (LGP) of which micro-features diffuse the light uniformly on surface is getting important. In general, there are many errors in machining like machine tool errors process error, setup error and etc. The amount of setup error in general machining is not so big in comparison with the others, so it is mostly neglected. But, especially in v-groove micromachining, setup error has a significant effect on micro-features. Low quality product and high cost are resulted from setup error. In v-groove micromachining, to confirm the effect of setup error, it is identified and then setup error synthesis model is derived from analysis of tool and workpiece setup. In addition, to predict the micro-features affected by setup error and enhance the production efficiency, the setup condition satisfying the tolerance of micro-features is geometrically analyzed and presented.

3차원 자유곡면을 볼엔드밀을 사용하여 금형가공을 할 경우, 가공면에는 공구경로에 따른 흔적과 NC공작기계의 직선보간시 발생되는 가공오차에 의하여 공작물 상에 가공오차가 필연적으로 발생되게 된다. 따라서 공작기계상에 서 금형가공을 수행한 후에는 가공오차를 제거하고 금형의 표면을 매끄럽게 하기위하여 연마작업이 픽수적으로 요구 되고있다. 본 연구에서는 3차원 자유곡면으로 이루어진 금형의 연마가공에 로봇을 도입하고, 이를 위한 로봇 작업단의 경로 제어시비전문가라 할지라도 CAM시스템으로 부터 금형 가공용 NC공작기계의 공구경로데이타(Cutter Location Data)를 받으면 자유곡면을 모형화한 후 자유곡면의 법선벡터와 연마로봇 작업단의 위치벡터를 자동으로 생성하고, 그에 따른 로봇의 작업명령을 자동으로 생성할 수 있는 CAMPoli 오프라인 로봇 프로그래밍 시스템을 개발하였다.

Geometrical error of ultra-precision machining due to spherical tool alignment error is analyzed. Deviation of spherical edge, ranged several ten micrometers, generates vertical and horizontal error of tool path and affects profile accuracy of machined surface. Simulation of machined error shows effect of tool alignment error and enables to estimate alignment error. This work provides technical insights into the minimizing of geometrical error of ultra-precision machining.

The surface,generated by end milling operation, is deteriorated by tool runout,vibration,friction,tool deflection, etc. In many source,deflection of tool affects to surfave accuracy. To develop a surface accracy model,method for the prediction of the topography of machined surfaces has been developed based on models of machine tool kinematics and cutting tool geometry. This model accounts for not only the ideal geometrical surface, but also the deflection of tool resulted in cutting force. For the more accurate prediction of cutting force,flexible end mill model is used to simulate cutting process. Compute simu;ation have shown the feasibility of the surface generation system.

본 연구에서는 볼 엔드밀 공구를 사용한 코너가공에서 절삭력을 예측하고, 가 공중 공구의 회전주기에 대한 최대 수평합력(max. resulant force)을 일정하게 유지시 키는 모델을 개발하고, 코너가공에 적용한다. 또 금형가공에는 절삭시간을 많이 소 요하여 생산성이 떨어지게 하는 주요한 원인이 되기 때문에 최대 수평합력을 황삭가공 에 적합하도록 설정하면 본 연구의 결과로 이송속도를 결정할 수 있다.

A study for investigating the effects of the cutting conditions(feed rate, radial depth of cut, cutting speed) and the tool diameter on the circumferential geometry of the cyl indrically end-mi1led workpiece is described. In this work, the circumferential geometry is characterized by the roundness error. Experimental results show that the circumferential geometry is directly affected by the material removal per tooth,which is defined as a function of the cutting speed, the feed rate and the radial depth of cut. And, the radial depth of cut is revealed to be the most critical condition among them. It is also found that the roundness error decreases when the tool diameter is larger under the same cutting conditions.

The surface, generated by end milling operation, is deteriorated by tool runout, vibration, tool wear and tool deflection, etc. Among them, the effect of tool deflection on surface accuracy is analyzed. Surface generation model for the prediction of the topography of machined srufaces has been developed based on cutting mechanism and cutting tool geometry. This model accounts for not only the ideal geometrical surface, but also the deflection of tool due to cutting force. For the more accurate prediction of cutting force, flexible end mill model is used to simulate cutting process. Computer simulation has shown the feasibility of the surface generation system. Using developed simulation system, the relations between the shape of end mill and cutting conditions are analyzed.
