In this paper, we propose a sequence mining based manufacturing process using a decision model in cognitive factory. The proposed model is a method to increase the production efficiency by applying the sequence mining decision model in a small scale production process. The data appearing in the production process is composed of the input variables. And the output variable is composed the production rate and the defect rate per hour. We use the GSP algorithm and the REPTree algorithm to generate rules and models using the variables with high significance level through t-test. As a result, the defect rate are improved by 0.38% and the average hourly production rate was increased by 1.89. This has a meaning results for improving the production efficiency through data mining analysis in the small scale production of the cognitive factory.

The fabrication method of aspheric lens is changed from machining to press molding so as to improve the productivity. In the case of the press molding method, the temperature control of the molding die is most important, because the temperature of each molding die determines the quality of lens. But any practical method for direct measuring of the lens temperature and the die internal temperature is yet unknown. Besides, in the case of the press molding system in which the heating and pressing and cooing of a die is done at separate work stations, the lens productivity of the system for small lens is yet too low. The paper shows an improved structure of convective sequential system, the lens productivity of which is three times as many as the conventional convective system. To know the die internal temperature, numerical results are given using ANSYS. A new convective sequential system is developed and tested. Finally, the Taguchi method is applied in order to optimize the setting conditions of individual work station of the system.

The fabrication method of aspheric lens is changed from machining to press molding so as to improve the productivity. In the case of the press molding method, the temperature control of the molding die is most impotent, because the temperature of each molding die determines the quality of lens. But any practical method for direct measuring of the lens temperature and the die internal temperature is yet unknown. Besides, in the case of the press molding system in which the heating and pressing and cooing of a die is done at one work station, the cycle time for the system is yet too long. The paper shows an improved structure of radiant sequential system in which the heating and pressing and cooing of dies is done at individual work station so as to cut down the cycle time. To know the die internal temperature, numerical results are given using ANSYS. An experimental radiant sequential system is developed and tested. Finally, the Taguchi method is applied in order to optimize the setting conditions of individual work station.

For high production rate of parts requiring multiple operations such as punching, blanking, or other operations are generally done with progressive dies. However, progressive die is generally limited to use for sheet metal forming due to the technical difficulties in rod or bulk material. This study proposes a new technique of progressive die and forming process for asymmetric automotive door striker, which is conventionally manufactured with separate tandem processes using solid rod. In order to design forming process and die, FEM simulation was performed to divide proper intermediate processes and analyze its formability. As a result, Forming processes were divided into 3 stages with upper and side punches and also, workpiece feeding and location mechanism was designed and manufactured in this study. Finally, forming tryouts were carried out by using the manufactured progressive die to verify the forming quality and productivity.

The separation and purification of $TaCl_5$is indispensable in the synthetic process of $TaCl_5$by chlorination of tantalum oxide. The reaction products are mainly $TaCl_5$, $NbCl_5$, $TiCl_4$ and $FeCl_2$. However, we need to separate $TaCl_5/NbCl_5$ mixture from the reaction product, because $TaCl_5$ and $NbCl_5$ are easily separated each other by distillation or hydrogen reduction process. In this work, a comparison study was carried out between direct sequence and indirect sequence to obtain $TaCl_5/NbCl_5$ mixture from the reaction product by removing light component, $TiCl_4$ and heavy component, $FeCl_2$ using two distillation columns. It was concluded that the direct sequence gave better results than indirect sequence in the aspect of initial capital costs and the associative operating costs.

In this study, two different methods were studied to prepare Pt-Pd catalysts for direct methanol fuel cells in order to enhance the electrochemical efficiency. The catalysts were compared with simultaneously deposited Pt-Pd and sequentially deposited Pt-Pd. The electrocatalysts contained 20 wt% of metal loading on carbon black and 1 : 2 of Pt : Pd atomic ratio. Electrochemical properties of the catalysts were compared by measuring cyclic voltammetries and average sizes and lattice parameters were measured by transmission electron microscopy images and x-ray diffraction. As a result, sequentially deposited Pt-Pd/C catalysts showed better electrochemical properties than those of simultaneously deposited Pt-Pd/C catalysts.

신제품 개발 과정에 있어 시장 요인과 기술 요인의 통합적 설계가 강조되면서 마케팅 영역(marketing domain)과 제조 영역(manufacturing domain)의 경계면(interface) 사이의 의견을 균형 있게 조정, 수렴해 주는 경계 시스템(interface system)에 대한 연구의 중요성이 커지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 배경을 토대로 각 영역(domain)에서 대표되는 신제품 파라미터 설계 방법인 컨조인트 분석과 다구찌 방법을 비교함으로써 두 영역의 신제품 개발 관점을 대비시키고 나아가 신제품 파라미터 설계를 위한 통합적 해결방안(integrated solution)을 제시한다. 그리고 도출된 방법론을 자동차 운전석 내부 설계 사례에 예시적으로 적용함으로써 유용성을 검증한다. 본 연구에서 제시된 방법론의 핵심적 특성과 차별적 의의는 기존의 연구들처럼 두 방법론을 선택하여 사용하는 것이 아니라 순차적으로 결합한 새로운 프로세스를 사용함으로 두 영역에서 발생하는 상충 관계(trade off)를 해결하여 고객의 효용도와 품질의 강건함이란 목적을 동시에 만족시키는 설계가 가능하다는데 있다. 나아가 신제품 개발 목표와 기업의 전략에 따라 분석의 순서와 설계수준의 크기를 조정할 수 있는 신축성을 확보할 수 있다는 점도 제시할 수 있다.

An efficient production method of spirulina extract was developed by enzymatic treatment using proteolytic enzymes. The suitable dosage of Tunicase, a cell lytic enzyme, was used to be 2.0% (w/w). To maximize solid recovery and spirulina extraction (SE) index, which indicates nucleic acid-related substances content, the dosage of Alcalase, commercially available pretense, was found to be 1.0% (w/w). By simultaneous treatments using optimal dosages of Tunicase and Alcalase, the highest SE index and solid recovery were obtained. The SE index and solid recovery of simultaneous treatments were notably enhanced by 100% ($11.4%\;{\rightarrow}\;22.8%$) and 56% ($45.2%\;{\rightarrow}\;70.7%$), respectively, than those of the non-treated extracts.

In order to increase the porductivity of electrical parts, manufacturing processes using progressive dies have been widely used in the industry. Motor cores have been fabricated using progressive stacking die with the lamination procedure for better electro-magnetic property. for the proper design of a process, a prediction of the process is required to obtain many design parameters. In this work, rigid-plastic finite element analysis is carried out in order to simulate the lamination this work, rigid-plastic finite element analysis is carried out in order to simulate the lamination process of the motor core. The effects of the embossing depth and the amount of deviation are investigated and compared with experiments. The forming process can then be predicted successfully from the results of analyses, which enables to design appropriately the die and the process.

Multi-Spinner 장비는 반도체 제조공정과정 중 Photo공정에서 노광(Exposure)공정을 제외한 PR 형성공정 및 현상(Development)을 수행하는 복합적인 장비이다. 이 복합적인 Multi-Spinner 장비의 각 수행 과정에서는 웨이퍼를 이동 작업하는데 있어서 이동경로를 최적 스케줄링 한다면 반도체 생산량 향상에 크게 도움이 된다. Multi-Spinner 장비내의 각 공정과정들은 PR 형성공정 및 현상 공정 순서에 맞게 순차적으로 진행되며, 이 과정들을 위해 이송 로봇이 순차적으로 웨이퍼를 이동하며, 이 과정에서 일정의 대기시간이 발생하게 된다. 대기시간을 줄이기 위해 C/S 유닛에 담겨 있는 수십 장의 웨이퍼들을 다음 공정으로 이송 시 이동경로의 최적 스케줄링이 필요하다. 본 논문은 스케줄링 문제를 풀기 위해 인공 신경회로망(Artificial Neural Network)을 이용한 최적 스케줄링 방법을 제안한다.
