본 연구에서는 미세 무광부식 패턴을 갖는 HD Switch Panel 부품을 설계하고 금형을 제작하였다. 이를 위하여 사출성형 Simulation(CAE)을 이용하여 사출성형 공정의 문제점과 부품의 변형량을 예측 하였다. 또한 금형표면의 가열온도와 실제 금형온도의 비교함으로써 공정변수 조절을 통한 사출성형 조건의 최적화를 달성할 수 있었다. 한편, 순간금형표면가열을 이용한 성형기술인 E-MOLD를 적용하여 자동차 내장부품용 HD Switch Panel을 제작하였고, 전자현미경과 원자현미경을 이용한 표면 평가를 통하여 무광부식 패턴의 전사율 향상으로 인한 무광 특성이 향상됨(2.5이상$\rightarrow$1.5~1.7)을 확인하였다.

The set-up of an injection molding process is a ye complicated and time-consuming job because it is required to well determine a lot of variables closely related to products. Thus, the productivity of the set-up process mainly depends on operators' expertise and know-how. To solve the problem mentioned before, this research constructs a support system which helps operators determining the condition of the injection molding easily and systematically. The construction of the support system consists of the following four steps: 1) to determine the control variables which affect the target defect types, 2) to design and implement UI(user interface) using a scenario of set-up process, 3) to design and implement the search algorithms for the initial and optima] condition, and 4) to construct the embedded system which integrates the support system with the operating system of a plastic injection molding machine. The test experiments of some typical products are performed using the embedded system to verify the validity of the support system.

최근 CAD/CAM의 발전과 더불어 사출성형공정은 여러분야에 폭넓게 응용되고 있 다. 사출성형공정은 크게 충전과정(filling stage), 냉각과정(cooling stage), 보압과정(packing stage)로 나누어 지는데 이중 충전과정은냉각과정과 보압과정에서 나타날 물리적인 현상과 최종 성형품의 기계적 성질에 중요한 영향을 끼치게 된다. 충전과정의 수치 해석 방법은 대 표적으로 control volume method, branching flow method, transient moving boun-dary method로 구분된다. 본 연구에서는 격자의 형태를 양호하게 형성시키고 유동선단의 형태를 개선하기위한 기법인 Spline 곡선을 이용한 선단격자 재구성(frontal remeshing using spline curve)과 수치해석에 소요되는 시간을 줄이기 위하여 벽면경계조건 처리를 위한 선단 유동 장생성(frontal flow field construction for wall boun-dary condition treatment)기법을 개발 하고 transient moving voundary method에 적용시켜 원형 평판과 인장 및 굽힘시편 그리고 두께가 변하는 사각 형상을 가진 캐비터에서의 충전과정을 수치해석하였다. 그결과 압력 분 포, 온도분포, 속도장, 유동선단의 진전형태 등이 기존에 제출된 해석결과와 비교하여 볼 때 만족스러운 수치해석결과를 보였다.

Non-molding and welding line happen by the assembly of gas at the connector terminal. There is not good phenomenon of burr by increasing the over injection pressure, the temperatures of die and resin to prevent from them. Therefore, the connector mold to apply the vacuum molding system is developed in this study. The vacuum pressure is controlled systematically with the optimum conditions in the important ingredients of injection molding that are the temperatures of melting resin and die and cooling condition. The badness in charging is cleared by making a vacuum to non-charging part of the deep bottom part of each cavity. And the vacuum system to reduce the cycle time is applied as the study envelopment of molding work. So, the good product and the productivity improvement can be obtained in this study.

Recently, plastic screws have replaced metal screws because of the former's light weight, thermal and electrical insulating properties, and anticorrosion characteristics. Plastic screws are usually produced by injection molding, which involves material shrinkage during the solidification of the polymer. This shrinkage results in the degeneration of the dimensional accuracy. In the present study, the effect of injection-molding conditions on the dimensional accuracy of plastic screws was investigated through a numerical simulation of injection molding; on the basis of this simulation, we could determine the mold-design parameters. The design of experiment was applied in accordance with the numerical analysis in order to optimize the injection-molding conditions with a view to improving the dimensional accuracy of the precision plastic screw.

There have been many technologies and materials proposed for realizing microlens array, and plastic injection is recognized as the most promising one because of several merits such as optical properties, impact resistance, formability, lightening and environmental adaptability. Since PR reflow for injection template fabrication enables the lens shape control easier, and the sample technology more effective for mass production, it lowers the cost, enhances integration, and reduces process steps, which leads to be environmentally benign. However injection of polymers may face the difficulty of formability depending on their properties. In order to overcome the difficulty, fast heating/cooling technology was introduced in this study, and microlenses were fabricated and evaluated. template obtained by PR reflow method was heated and cooled fast during injection to fabricate microlens array. PC and PMMA polymer materials were compared, and it was realized that PMMA showed much better formability due to its lower melting temperature. Injection parameters of pressures and velocities were driven out for injection optimization.

Subminiature lenses are currently widely used in mobile phone cameras and are usually produced by injection molding. The lens molding process has the unique feature of a runner volume that is much larger than the part volume, and this feature should be considered when determining the mold design and molding conditions. In this study, a shell-type runner was proposed as an alternative to the conventional cylindrical runner used for lens molding. An injection molding simulation was performed by applying the proposed shell runner, and the simulation results were compared with those from the cylindrical runner case. It was found that the shell runner could considerably reduce the runner cooling time with only a slight increase in the injection pressure. The effect of the runner thickness was then investigated numerically in terms of the mold filling and cooling characteristics, from which an optimal runner thickness could be determined.

We studied on the injection molding conditions of defect-free PMMA lens for surgical light. When the heat temperature of mold is low, more imperfect molding or weldlines and flow marks have showed. A defective lens depends on low fluidity of the PMMA resin and its temperature is high, a flexural strain has occurred. The longer cooling time of specimens, the more cracks have occurred due to resin crystallization. In this study, optimal molding conditions for defect-free PMMA lens is as follows. The heat temperature of core mold was 110 [$^{\circ}C$] and also the cooling time was 25 [sec]. PMMA materials can realized low expense to produce plastic optical lens and applications.

The fabrication of ceramic machine components by injection molding(CIM : Ceramic Injection Molding) is critically dependent on the shaping and binder extraction techniques. Injection molding is of keen interest to ceramic industries because CIM is suitable for making an intricate shape and manufacturing cost is lower than other process when production scale is large. The success of the molding process is dependent on the correct formulation of the organic vehicle and the achievement of optimum filler loading. Fine alumina powders and polyethylene binder systems were employed to prepare moldable blend then produce a simple specimen by compression molding. Flow characteristics of the mixture was evaluated by viscosity measurement. Optimum binder system and ceramic volume loading for injection molding were determind. A good debinding technique was utilized to improve the quality of debinded parts and save the debinding time. The simple ceramic part was successfully sintered after debinding and its microstructure examined with SEM revealed good consolidation.
