전기적 에너지를 기계적 에너지로 변환하고 또한, 기계적 에너지를 전기적 에너지로 변환할 수 있는 압전 세라믹스는 압전 변압기 (piezoelectric transformer), 초음파 모터, 센서 등과 같은 응용분야에 광범위하게 사용되고 있다. 특히, 전원장치에 있어서 현재 주요 전자제품에 사용되고 있는 권선형 변압기와 같은 전자 변환기의 대체품으로 압전 세라믹스 소재의 특성을 이용한 압전변압기의 개발과 응용연구는 국내외적으로 활발히 연구되어왔다. 압전변압기는 권선형 변압기와 비교 하였을 때 누설자속이 없어 노이즈 발생이 없고, 공진주파수만을 이용하므로 출력의 파형이 정현파에 가까워 고조파 잡음이 없으며, 불연성의 특징을 가지고 있다. 추가적으로 압전 변압기는 소형화, 슬림화, 경량화가 가능하며 90%이상의 높은 효율을 얻을 수 있다. 또한, 단판형 압전변압기의 출력한계를 개선하기 위해 높은 승압비와 고출력을 갖는 적층타입의 압전변압기가 제안되었다. 압전변압기용 조성 세라믹스는 높은 에너지 변환효율을 위해서 전기기계결합계수 ($k_p$)가 커야 하며, 발열에 의한 온도 상승을 억제하기 위하여 기계적 품질계수(Qm)가 큰 것이 바람직하다. 또한, 높은 전류를 발생하기 위해서는 유전상수가 커 압전변압기의 출력측 정전용량을 크게 하여야한다. 이러한 압전변압기의 제작 조건을 위해 우수한 압전 및 유전특성을 갖는 PZT계 세라믹스가 주로 사용 되어져 왔다. 그러나, PZT계 세라믹스의 우수한 압전 및 유전특성에도 불구하고 $1000^{\circ}C$에서 급격히 휘발하는 PbO의 성질 때문에 환경적으로나 인체의 건강문제로 인해 전세계적으로 그 사용량을 제한하고 있다. 또한 적층 압전변압기의 구조적 특성상 내부전극과 함께 소결하여야 하는데, 이때 소결온도가 높으면 값비싼 Pd합량이 높은 전극을 사용하여야 한다. Pd함량이 10%미만인 Ag/Pd 전극을 사용하기 위해서는 $950^{\circ}C$ 이하에서 저온소결이 가능한 세라믹스 제조가 필수적이라 할 수 있다. 소결온도를 낮추는 방법으로는 다른 물질들을 치환하여 소결온도를 낮추는 방법과 미세분말을 만들어 그레인사이즈를 미세화 하는 방법들이 있다. 많은 미세 분말 제조 방법 중에서 Attrition mill은 일반적인 ball mill에 비해 분말의 입도를 미세하게 할 수 있어 증가된 분말의 비표면적에 의하여 반응을 촉진시킴으로써 저온소결이 가능한 세라믹스를 만들 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 소결온도가 낮으면서도 유전 및 압전특성이 우수한 조성을 사용하여 적층 압전변압기를 제작하여 전기적 특성을 조사하였다.

This paper is about the copper slider with high electric conductivity and resistance arc. A new copper slider which has enhanced resistance against frictional wear was developed. By alteration of its material components and manufacturing process, its material property has been enhanced. To verify its enhanced wear-resisting capacity, a laboratory test and a field test were carried out. As the laboratory test, a dynamo test was performed and its test result showed that the developed new copper slider had superior wear-resisting capacity to the currently used copper slider. The new one showed double durability of the current one and normal wearing characteristics. A filed test was performed on the Metro subway lines at service by Seoul Metro. The field test showed similar results to those from the laboratory test, which the d eveloped new copper slider has double superior durability and sound wearing patterns. Authors strongly believe that the replacement of the copper slider currently in use by the developed new one will contribute to the economic and efficient operation of the subway line system

SMF9060 material is a Fe-based powder sintered alloy that is used for several automobile components such as Synchronize Hub, oil pump and transmission. These components are required excellent wear resistance and durability. In this study, we have performed a dry wear test at the ambient air and Ar gas conditions in the room temperature, and a lubricant wear test at the room temperature and engine oil temperature of $100^{\circ}C$. The amount of wear volume and coefficient friction are measured by a Profilometer and a Ball on disk type wear tester. The wear volume in Ar gas condition was a little higher than that in the ambient air condition. However the wear volume in the lubricant wear condition was much lower than in the dry wear condition. XRD analysis of the debris in Ar gas condition showed that the oxide film was not formed.

Grinding has been adapted as a finishing process,which can carry out form and surface integrity at the same time. Recently, high efficient and precise grinding technique is required bacause the needs for functional parts such as silicon wafer,ceramic,and electric materials are increasing. Accordingly, the development of grinding wheel appropriate to that purpose is very important. So, in this paper we newly developed a diamond grinding wheel by applying the superior characteristics of spheroidal graphite of the cast iron sintered product. Especially, a electric resistance sintering method was applied in which rapid heat treatment is possible. Finally, we have achieved successful results that the grinding wheel has high hardness,durability and grinding ability,and satisfies above conditions.

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.

This Paper Proposes the test pieces of X, Y and Z axes to compensate the shape distortion of Selective Laser Sintering(SLS) parts resulting from the phase change during the sintering process. In no case of the proposed compensation test pieces of X, Y axes the accurate rates of shrinkage can be measured with the reduction of curling which is obtained from adjustment of build orientation and the formula used to get scale factors are proposed with the shrinkage rates of them. The scale factors of X, Y and Z axes are generated by building up proposed compensation test pieces. The generated scale iactors are required to satisfy the dimensional accuracy even if there are changes of the build position and the size of SLS parts in the build chamber. For this reason, it is proposed that the build positions and the size be considered to be noise factors against the compensation test pieces and a method is also proposed that scale factors be selected to robustly maintain the dimensional accuracy of SLS parts under the actual operating conditions with the application of the Taguchi Method.

Rapid Prototyping(RP) models are no longer used only for design verification. Currently, parts built utilizing layer manufacturing technology can be employed as functional prototypes and as patterns or tools for different manufacturing processes such as vacuum casting, investment casting, injection molding, precise casting and sand casting. This trend of Rapid Prototyping application meets the requirement of concurrent engineering and its range covers a more spreaded area. The aim of this paper is saving the manufacturing lead time and cost of plastic parts having hollow space shapes used by prototype-car. Using rapid prototype patterns, made by the Selective Laser Sintering(SLS) technique, a new approach of manufacturing resin-based blow mold is discussed. It has a great potential fur making prototype-car parts with the batch size of under 200 parts, in case of rapid modification due to a subsequent design changes in developing stage. So, the process proposed in this research shows reduction of process time and manufacturing cost when compared with the conventional process such as a Zinc Alloy fur Stamping(ZAS) mold.

다층 세라믹 기판은 내열성, 내마모성 및 우수한 전기적 특성으로 인하여 기존의 PCB의 대체품으로 많이 이용되며 그 수요가 점점 늘어가고 있는 추세이다. 이에 고집적 다층 세라믹 기판을 보다 다기능화, 고밀도화, 고성능화하기 위해서는 세라믹 층간 정밀도가 아주 중요한 요소로 부각되고 있으며, 무수촉 기판 소성기술을 이용한 층간 정밀도를 높이는 연구가 진행되어지고 있다. 그러나 무수축 기판에서 이러한 정밀도를 유지하기 위해서는 전극의 수축률을 기판의 수축율과 같은 0%에 가깝게 제어하여야 하며 이를 위해서 여러 가지 Frit을 이용하여 수축율을 제어를 시도되고 있다. Ag 전극은 낮은 비저항 우수한 접착성 등의 장점을 가지고 있을 뿐 아니라 가격이 저렴하여 전극재료로서 많은 연구가 이루어졌다. 특히 Infiltration법에 의한 무수축소성의 경우 Glass가 Ag paste로 Infiltration되어 Ag paste와 세라믹의 matching성 확보에 많은 문제가 발생하였다. 이에 본 실험에서는 제조된 Ag conductor paste 에 첨가되는 frit이 무수축 기판과의 매칭성에 어떠한 영향이 있는지에 대하여 고찰하였다. 시편의 준비는 frit이 첨가된 Ag paste를 기판에 screen printing 한 후 $900^{\circ}C$에서 소결한 것을 사용하였으며 Ag 전극의 미세구조를 관찰하고 전기적 특성과 미세구조와의 연관성에 관해 고찰하였다.

The use of 3D printing (Additive Manufacturing) technology has expanded from initial model production to the mass production of parts in the industrial field based on the continuous research and development of materials and process technology. As a representative polymer material for 3D printing, the polyamide-based material, which is one of the high-strength engineering plastics, is used mainly for manufacturing parts for automobiles because of its light weight and durability. In this study, the specimens were fabricated using Selective Laser Sintering, which has excellent mechanical properties, and the flexural characteristics were analyzed according to the temperature of the two types of polyamide 12 and glass bead reinforced PA12 materials. The test specimens were prepared in the directions of $0^{\circ}$, $45^{\circ}$, and $90^{\circ}$ based on the work platform, and then subjected to a flexural test in three test temperature environments of $-25^{\circ}C$, $25^{\circ}C$, and $60^{\circ}C$. As a result, PA12 had the maximum flexural strength in the direction of $90^{\circ}$ at $-25^{\circ}C$ and $0^{\circ}$ at $25^{\circ}C$ and $60^{\circ}C$. The glass bead-reinforced PA12 exhibited maximum flexural strength values at all test temperatures in the $0^{\circ}$ fabrication direction. The tendency of the flexural strength changes of the two materials was different due to the influence of the plane direction of the lamination layer depending on the type of stress generated in the bending test.
