The objective of this paper is to investigate into the development of injection mould with high cooling characteristics using a direct metal RP technology. In order to manufacture the injection mould with a high cooling rate, three-dimensional conformal cooling channels have been generated in the mould. DMT process, which is one of direct metal RP technologies, has been utilized to directly manufacture the metallic mould with three-dimensional conformal cooling channels. In order to examine the performance of the designed mould, injection molding tests have been carried out. The results of the experiments have been shown that a cooling time and the injection time of the proposed mould are reduced by the factor of five and two times in comparison with the injection mould with linear cooling channels.

The squeeze casting process is considered as an attractive way to form the primary product of near net shape metal matrix composites for wide use in automobile industry. To understand for infiltration limit in squeeze casting processes, the SAFFIL short fiber preform of volume fraction $10%{\sim}23%$ were fabricated by vaccum pumping and speed control press, and the optimal condition for fiber preform fabrication had been experimentally obtained. The composite materials were fabricated by forced infiltration of molten metals such as Al6061, Al7075, pure Al, AC8A, and Al2024. The infiltration distance and deformation of fiber preform are observed, and tensile strength were measured from at the room temperature.

반응소결 탄화규소는 소결체 내에 잔존 실리콘이 남아 있어 고온강도의 감소를 초래하는 단점이 있어 고온 구조재료로서의 사용이 제한되어 왔다. 따라서 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위한 방법으로 Si 단독으로 용응침투시키는 대신 Si-MoSi₂를 침투시키는 방법이 시도되고 있으며, 이외에도 TiC 성형체에 Co, Ni 등의 금속, ZrB₂ 성형체에 Zr 금속 등을 용융, 침투시켜 성능향상을 유도하는 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 반응소결에 대한 기본이론과 응용분야, 반응소결 비산화물계 세라믹스의 제조공정 및 이들 소결체의 미세구조와 기계적 특성 등을 소개하고자 한다.

In this study,we conducted an injection molding analysis of metal powder materials for the development of flanges, which are necessary adapters for optical communication. The metal powder injection molding process is a technique for producing an injection molded article having a complicated shape by mixing ceramic or stainless powder and binders. It is used to produce products which require complex processing technology or for which the productivity is low. The purpose of this study is to minimize the manufacturing processing of products which are manufactured through existing mechanical processing procedures. For the injection molding analysis, we mixed stainless STS316 metal powder with binders at a ratio of 6 to 4 to make molding materials consisting of granular pellets. Then, three-dimensional modeling and meshing were carried out to obtain the optimal injection molding analysis conditions(molding temperature, melting temperature, injection time, injection temperature, injection pressure, packing time and cooling time). As a result of the analysis, it was discovered that the inlet became available 13.29 seconds after the first injection. Also, as the flowing and packing in the melt through the sprue, runner and gate were stable, it is expected that good molds can be manufactured.

Design sensitivity analysis scheme is proposed in an elasto -plastic finite element method with explicit time integration using a direct differentiation method. The direct differentiation is concerned with large deformation, the elasto-plastic constitutive relation, shell elements with reduced integration and the contact scheme. The design sensitivities with respect to the process parameter are calculated with the direct analytical differentiation of the governing equation. The sensitivity results obtained from the present theory are compared with that obtained by the finite difference method in a class of sheet metal forming problems such as hemi-spherical stretching and cylindrical cup deep-drawing. The result shows good agreement with the finite difference method and demonstrates that the preposed sensitivity calculation scheme is a pplicable in the complicated sheet metal forming analysis and design.

기존의 금속조형물은 만드는 공정으로 주조-후처리 또는 정밀 기계가공방법은 많은 시간과 노력이 필요한 단점이 있었다. 최근에 귀금속 성형점토 (PMC)라는 마이크로 크기의 분말과 바인더가 혼합되어 마치 점토와 같이 직접 수공 또는 치공구를 이용하여 완성하고 $650-850^{\circ}C$ 정도의 저온에서 소결하여 단시간 안에 최종 조형물을 만들 수 있는 신공정이 개발된 바 있다. 본 연구에서는 선진사와 비슷한 $1{\~}3{\mu}$m급은 분말을 1:1로 혼합하고 고형 바인더를 첨부하여 기존 선진사와 동등하거나 우수한 미세조직과 표면경도를 확보하고 조형비가 있는 시작품을 만드는데 성공하였다.

In the present study, a numerical investigation of an insert injection molding process was carried out for the development of thermoplastic microfluidic chip plates with metal electrodes. Insert injection molding technology enables efficient realization of a plastic-metal hybrid structure and various efforts have been undertaken to produce novel components in several application fields. The microfluidic chip with metal inserts was proposed as a representative example and its molding process was analyzed. The important characteristics of the filling stage, such as the effects of filling time and thickness of the part cavity, were characterized. Furthermore, the detailed distributions of pressure and temperature at the end of the filling stage were investigated, revealing the significance of metal insert temperature.

The die design of the liquid and semi-solid forming process is performed by CAE technology, The die design by the computer simulation has some advantages compared with the conventional method which has been performed by the designer's experiences in trials and emu. The defect zones such as porosity and shrinkage has been predicted by simulation results. The result of the numerical analysis for the proposed casting condition shows the characteristics of thixotropic flow, and was used to determine the geometry of the gating system and die cavity. The optimized production conditions were also proposed by result of computer aided engineering.

Nanocomposite blade for dicing semiconductor wafer is investigated for micro/nano-device and micro/nano-fabrication. While metal blade has been used for dicing of silicon wafer, polymer composite blades are used for machining of quartz wafer in semiconductor and cellular phone industry in these days. Organic-inorganic material selection is important to provide the blade with machinability, electrical conductivity, strength, ductility and wear resistance. Maintaining constant thickness with micro-dimension during shaping is one of the important technologies fer machining micro/nano fabrication. In this study the fabrication of blade by wet processing of mixing conducting nano ceramic powder, abrasive powder phenol resin and polyimide has been investigated using an experimental approach in which the thickness differential as the primary design criterion. The effect of drying conduction and post pressure are investigated. As a result wet processing techniques reveal that reliable results are achievable with improved dimension tolerance.
