The effect of microperforated packaging films on fresh-cut apples was studied Apples (Malus domestica Borkh. cv. Red Delicious) were cored and cut, packaged in laser microperforated film or non-microperforated polyolefin film, and stored for 3 weeks at 4C. The flesh firmness of apples packaged in microperforated film during the storage period was significantly higher than that of apples packaged in non-microperforated film, and the level of soluble solids was also higher. The browning index, titratable acidity, pH, acetaldehyde and ethanol levels were not affected by microperforation. These results show that microperforated films could be used for retention of flesh firmness in fresh-cut apples.

The effect of browning inhibitors on quality properties of fresh-cut strawberries was investigated. Half-cut strawberries were treated with dipping solutions alone and with combinations of 1% ascorbic acid, 1% citric acid, 1% sodium chloride, and 1% magnesium chloride, were packaged with low density polyethylene bags, and were kept for 24 hours at $4^{\circ}C$. The levels of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the packages of the samples treated with the combined solutions were the highest and the lowest, respectively. The loss of L value and flesh firmness of fresh-cut strawberries was retarded by the combined solutions than by the dipping solutions alone. The soluble solids and pH were not affected by the browning inhibitor. These results suggest that mixture of ascorbic acid, citric acid, sodium chloride, magnesium chloride may prevent browning and softening of fresh-cut strawberries.

Though the laser cutting process is increasingly used in industry, a process automation and systematic database is still yet to be developed. In this study, as the fundamental step toward the construction of a reliable process expert system, a laser cutting quality monitoring/analysis system is developed based on simulations and experimental results. The relations between laser process parameters and laser cutting surface quality parameters such as kerf geometry, striation, surface roughness and dross formation are characterized and analyzed. A graphical user interface is used to visualize the results.

To develop and extend the shelf-life of vitamin C enriched fresh-cut apples using CA stored Fuji apples, dipping in 10% L-ascorbic acid and packaging with 0.03 mm LDPE, 0.04 mm PP and 0.08 mm Nylon/PE film(N$_2$displacement) were carried out. The changes of gas concentrations in the packaging and quality attributes of fresh-cut apples were examined during storage at 10$^{\circ}C$. The concentrations of O$_2$was maintained lower in Nylon/PE film than the other film, the level of O$_2$was in the range of 1∼3%. The increase of C$_2$H$_4$ concentrations in Nylon/PE film bag was more suppressed than the others. The vitamin C content of fresh-cut apples was enriched by dipping in L-ascorbic acid solution up to 241 mg$.$100 g-1 f.w., and the loss or that content was retarded differently by the package conditions of lower O$_2$level during storage. Browning in fresh-cut apples was shown after 6 days of storage in LDPE and PP film. but it was not shown by 14 days of storage in Nylon/PE film. Spoilage and off odor in fresh-cut apples were not detected up to 14 days of storage in Nylon/PE film. The results indicated that the vitamin C enriched fresh-cut apples can be processed from the long-term CA stored apples, and maintaining high quality of the products ill be possible in cases of the application of sealing packaging after O$_2$removal with film having low O$_2$permeability.

This study was carried out to sensory evaluation of persimmon leaf by roasting and steaming. The good sensory evaluation of persimmon leaf tea of cutting after different steamed times was shown in 3 minutes and 5 minutes steamed tea. Taste sensory score was increased in proportion to increasing of soluble solid and extraction yield and the increasing of color sensory score had relation to increasing of color value. The best sensory score was in roasted persimmon leaf tea of 5 minutes roasting in persimmon leaf tea of cutting after steaming of 3 minutes and 5 minutes. The best sensory score was shown in 3 minutes steamed in 5 minutes roasted which was culled after different steaming times. The total sensory non of roasted tea was influenced from preprocessing and total sensory score of roasted tea was higher than Just steamed tea. According to above result, the sensory score of roasted tea was more higher than steamed tea and the highest score was in 5 minutes roasted tea which was cutted after 3 minutes steamed.

This paper presents the monitoring method of machining error and quality check to improve the productivity of boring manufacturing process. Machining error usually appears as the offset of spatial location of actual cutting path compared to ideal cutting path. In order to monitor an error of workpiece, multiple factors affecting quality of boring, such as distortion of workpiece, clamping error, radial rotation error of the spindle and motion error of machine tools, were took into account. To verify the productive quality, we propose the quality check system. The system based on IT convergence analyzes the process error rate and saves the analyzed data in memory. Also, these play important roles in detecting an inferior production goods and can decrease the production cost and loss of bearing.

한국에 지중배전케이블이 설치된 지 30년이 넘고 현재 지중화율은 12% 가량 되고 있다. 지중화율이 점차 높아지는 추세에서 기존의 매설된 케이블이나 사고 케이블에 대한 교체로 철거케이블이 발생하는 빈도가 높아져 이를 쉽게 철거할 수 있는 방안이 필요하여 철거용 지중케이블 자동절단기 개발을 하기에 이르렀다. 케이블철거 작업이 현재까지는 대부분 수동유압절단기를 통하여 이루어지다보니 작업의 경제성이 상당히 낮고 안전상의 문제가 대두되어 관로내 케이블을 차량의 유압을 이용하여 자동 인출, 자동 절단할 수 있는 기기를 개발하기에 이르렀다. 자동절단기를 사용함으로써 기존 $4{\sim}5$명이 소요되는 작업이 $1{\sim}2$명의 인력으로도 작업할 수 있고 작업시간도 대폭 단축되어 경제성이 크게 향상되었다. 아울러 사람이 절단작업을 수행하다보니 안전성의 문제가 염려시 되었는 데 철단작업을 기계가 대행함으로써 작업의 안전이 보장되었다. 이와 같이 케이블 자동절단기는 경제성은 물론 안전성을 확보함으로써 케이블 철거작업의 품질개선에 큰 역할을 담당할 것이다.

When apples are picked or selected by grader, the rate of wound occurrence on the skin by apple stalk is remarkably high if the apple was bigger than 3 size during the harvest time. Except this case, the other sizes showed very little similarity. The crop of apple per 1 minute was 2.9kg without cutting fruit stalk, whereas only 1.1kg of the apples were obtained due to cutting the fruit stalk. Thereby, the harvesting without cutting fruit stalk is highly effective in terms of productivity rather than cutting the fruit stalk. As far as the wound occurrence rate on apple skin by apple stalk of distance between grader's dish and accumulated board is concerned, the grader which has no distance showed quite low rate of wound occurrence compared with those grader with 3cm or 8cm distance. When the apple was being stored, there was no difference in firmness between the cut stalk apple and the uncut stalked apple, however there was slightly more weight loss in the cut stalk apple than uncut stalk apple.

Laser cutting is experiencing a rising worldwide acceptance in the industry. Expert systems are necessary for the systematic arrangement and searching of experimental data existing in journal papers, job handbooks, etc.. This paper proposes an expert system for the selection of the appropriate laser cutting variables from the available database. Optimum cutting conditions according to the given cutting velocity were searched and qualitative comments which are difficult to be used as database variables were shown at each velocity using the binary and fuzzy inference. These comments could be informative to unskilled operators of the laser cutting process. Typical cutting conditions of the mild steel and stainless steel were included and the working range and quality variations were displayed graphically. The proposed algorithm was implemented in an IBM compatible personal computer as an expert system for CO$_{2}$ laser cutting to derive the optimum cutting conditions by using the turbo prolog.
