This study is concerned about the design and structural analysis of high integrated tool tower ATC(Automatic Tool Changer) for machine tool. Recently, many studies have been undergoing to reduce a working time in a field of machine tool. Tool tower ATC belongs to reduce a stand-by time by shortening a tool exchanging time. The developed system can store more number of tool in small space than other machine. The analysis is carried out by CATIA V5 software. In the result of structural analysis, the safety factor of the developed system is confirmed.

Automatic tool changers (ATCs) can be divided into drum and chain types. Drum-type ATCs contain a magazine, where the tools are mounted, and a cam gearbox, which swaps the tools via roller gear and grooved plate cams. Drum-type ATCs are advantageous in that the operating time for the tool magazine is more rapid than that of chain-type ATCs and the length of the unit is shorter. Thus, drum-type ATCs can be fabricated into various shapes and forms depending on the number of tools and the magazine size in accordance with machining center requirements and consumer demand. In particular, the price competitiveness of a machining center with a drum-type ATC is higher, while drum-type ATCs are more rigid with fewer parts, possibly reducing the need for regular servicing. This study aims to verify the structural stability and design validity of the magazine base, which is the main structure of a drum-type ATC, using finite element analysis. This study kinematically verifies the specifications of the selected drive motor and reducer and assessed the design of the cam gearbox. It also conducts a structural analysis of the roller camp, which is the core component of the cam gearbox, based on the results of the kinetodynamic analysis, thus validating the structural design.

Micromanufacturing is a useful system for reducing energy consumption. For micromanufacturing, tool clamping and workpiece clamping are important components to realize the machining process. Therefore, a shape memory alloy (SMA) ring type tool holder is developed. In addition, this holder needs cooling and heating processes to execute the tool clamping process. This study suggests a cooling/heating device based on peltier elements. The device will be applied to the heating/cooling process of an automatic tool changer (ATC) for the SMA tool holder. This study introduces the configuration and operating principle of the proposed ATC system. The description and prototype evaluation of this system were given. Plastic bolt and aluminum block were selected to enhance the cooling performance, and the installed tool was changed in 17 s during the experiments.

The purpose of this study is an attempt to improve the functionality of a conventional Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) process using the Automatic Tool Changer (ATC) to perform multimaterial production and post-processing. Hybrid-FDM means a fusion of an Additive Manufacturing process and grinding process using the ATC system. In order to enhance the potentiality of production capacity for multi-material fabrication and surface roughness improvement, two extrusion tools and one grinding tool system are suggested. A pneumatic chuck is attached on a moving platform in the XY axes plane and an extrusion head and grinding head are placed in a docking station, allowing for a quick changeover with each other. Therefore, the manufacturing lead time can be reduced efficiently for the fabrication of a product.

Automatic tool changers(ATCs) store tools used in a machining center to its magazine and changes the tools automatically. Tools of machine centers are changed and then precisely equipped to spindle system by the ATC. Therefore, the stability and reliability of the ATC is very important. But, there is lack of development and evaluation on basic performance and vibration of the ATCs. So, in this study, a BT40 ATC test bench was developed to verify stability and reliability of BT40 ATCs.

Recently, many studies have been undergoing to reduce a working time in a field of machine tool. There are two ways of reducing a working time; to reduce an actual working time by heighten a speed of spindle and to reduce a stand-by time by shortening a tool exchanging time. ATC(Automatic Tool changer) belongs to the latter case. Fixed address type ATC that is being developed ill this study can store more number of tool in small space than magazine transfer type ATC relatively as well as shorten tool exchanging time. In this study, a simplified equivalent model of finite element method in order to analyze structure of fixed address type ATC.

In this study, we carried out the each lines of section, using GC (green silicon carbide) whetstone, the SCM415 material which separated by after and before heat treatments process, in 3+2 axis machining centers for integrated grinding after cutting end mill works, the spindle speed 8000 rpm and feed rate 150 mm/min. For the analysis of the centerline average roughness (Ra), we measured by 10 steps stages. Using Finite element analysis, we found the result of the load analysis effect of the assembly parts, when applied the 11 kg's load on both side of the ATC (Automatic tool change) arm. The result is as follows. For the centerline average roughness (Ra) in the non-heat treatment work pieces, are appeared the most favorable in the tenth section are $0.510{\mu}m$, that were shown in the near the straight line section which is the smallest deformation of curve. In addition, the bad surface roughness appears on the path is to long by changing angle, the more inclined depth of cut, because the chip discharging is not smoothly.
