The exit burrs in the micro-drilling of precision miniature holes are of interest, especially for ductile materials. As burrs from this process can be difficult to remove, it is important to acquire the way of predicting burr types as well as optimal cutting conditions which minimize the burrs. In this paper, an artificial neural network was used for the prediction of burr formation in micro-drilling. First, the influence of cutting conditions including cutting speed, feed and drill diameter on the exit burr characteristics, such as burr size and type, were observed and analyzed. Then. the burr types were classified by using the influential experimental data as input parameters to the neural nets.

The machining technology for the removal of micro-burr has been demanded because electrode parts of electron gun have minute holes. In this study, Magnetic Assisted Polishing(MAP) is applied to remove the micro-burr instead of the contentional polishing process such as the etching and barrel. Optimal polishing conditions are selected from many experiments using the tool of the flat end slit type. On the basis of experimental results, the deburring machine for the Magnetic Assisted Polishing of electrode part is developed and its performance is evaluated.

The lead frame, which is principal material used in semiconductor packaging, is required to be microscopic in leads and pitches to cope with miniaturization, thin film, large scale integrated. In addition, it is indispensable to eliminate residual stress and burrs occurring at manufacturing lead frames This thesis applied electrolytic abrasion in order to remove burrs and residual stress created during the stamp process. Electrolytic abrasion removed the burrs on the surface of lead frame. Removal of residual stress highly depends on the types of electrolyte solution. In case of perchloric system, electrolytic abrasion removed 23% of residual stress. Through removal of burrs and reducing residual stress, the reliability of lead frame was substantially improved.

본 논문에서는 FACS(fluorescence activated cell sorting)의 초소형화를 위한 미세 유체소자들을 플라스틱 기판에 집적하여 제작하고 전기삼투를 이용해서 세포가 일렬로 이송되는 특성을 시험한다. 제작된 미세 유체 소자는 유리 하부 기판과 플라스틱 상부 기판 및 전원장치로 구성된다. 상부기판은 세포를 주입하기 위한 샘플 측 레저버와 세포를 운반 및 일렬 이송이 가능하게 하는 버퍼를 저장할 두 개의 레저버가 있고 이들이 배출되는 레저버로 구성된다. 마이크로머시닝 기술을 이용하여 실리콘 기판 위에 미세 채널 몰드를 제작한 후 PDMS(polydimethylsiloxane)로 주물을 제작한다. $O_2$ 플라즈마를 이용하여 유리 기판과 PDMS 주물을 접합하며 제작된 채널에 적색 잉크와 bead를 샘플 측에 충전하고 버퍼 측에 sodium borate를 충전한 후 전기삼투로 구동시킨다. bead가 일렬로 이송되도록 전장을 조절하고 이때의 유속과 유량을 측정한다. 다양한 전장에 따른 실험을 통하여 채널의 구조를 최적화한다.

Magnetic abrasive polishing is an advanced deburring process for nonmagnetic materials and micropattern products that have non-machinability characteristics. Despite these advantages, there are some problems with using MAP for deburring. MAP has introduced geometric errors into microgrooves because of an over-cutting force caused by uncontrolled magnetic abrasives in the MAP tool. Thus, in this study, to solve this problem, an EP (electrolyte polishing)-MAP hybrid polishing process was developed for deburring microgrooves in an STS316 material. In addition, an evaluation of EP-MAP for the deburring of microgrooves was carried out by profiling the burrs. The results of the experiment showed geometric errors after the deburring process using MAP. However, in the case of EP-MAP, no geometric error was observed after the process because of the lower material removal rate in EP-MAP.

This This study aims to verify burr formation and to remove the burrs in micro-channel fabrication using micro-machining tools. The machining processes are combined with micro-milling and magnetic abrasive deburring for AISI316 stainless steel. Depending on the micro-milling conditions that are applied, burrs are formed around the side walls. Magnetic abrasive deburring is used to remove these burrs. AISI316 stainless steel is a nonferrous material and its magnetic flux density, which is an important parameter for efficient magnetic abrasive deburring, is low. To enhance this magnetic flux density, we design and build a magnetic array table. The effect of removing burrs is evaluated via SEM and a surface tester.

In mechanical cutting process, burr was generated at workpiece by cutting tool generally. It is working disturbance during manufacturing process. Besides burr was taken shape relatively large size more micro scale machining than macro scale machining. Many researches have been studied to remove micro burr(de-burring), because it was negative effect for accuracy of machining shape. However, micro de-burring was constrained by burr height, micro feature and so on. In this paper, experimental research was carried out to compare de-burring characteristics of $Al_2O_3$ abrasive and polymer.

In this study, combined micro press and surface finishing process are proposed to fabricate the micro nozzle array on a stainless steel sheet metal. In micro hole punching process the burr occurs inevitably, but the burr must be minimized in order to improve the quality and accuracy of the product. For this reason, subsequent magnetic field-assisted finishing technique is applied to remove the burr which exists around the nozzles for ink-jet printer head and proved to be a feasible for deburring by experiment. The deburring characteristics of sheet metals were investigated changing with polishing time and magnetic abrasive size. After the deburring, the burr size has remarkably reduced and roundness of the hole also has improved.

The study on damaged layer is necessary for machinability improvement in micro machining. The damaged layer in metal cutting is derived from plastic deformation and transformation of metal structure. The damaged layer affects micro mold life and micro machine parts. In this study, the damaged layer of micro machined surface of copper is evaluated according to various machining condition. The damaged layer structure and metallurgical characteristics are measured by optical microscope, and evaluated by cutting forces and surface roughness. The scale of this damaged layer depends on cutting process parameters and machining environments. By experimental results, depth of damaged layer was increased with increasing of cutting depth, also the damaged layer is less occurred in down-milling compared to up-milling during micro endmilling operation.
