다축가공은 3축 이상의 동시제어축을 이용하여 복잡한 형상을 효율적으로 가공할 수 있는 첨예의 기술인 반면, 가공 설비의 고가로 인해 실제현장에 보급되지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 부가축 방식에 의한 저축화 가공방식은 이러한 현실적 문제에 대처할 수 있는 강력한 방식으로서, 본 연구팀에서는 3축 CNC 공작기계에 부가축 테이블 방식을 이용하여 5축 곡면가공을 구현한 바 있으며, 정삭가공 알고리즘을 개발한 바 있다. 본 연구에서는 부가축 환경하에서 황삭가공 알고리 즘을 다루며, 기존의 전축환경의 황삭가공에 비해공구자세를 인텍싱 형태로 변화시킬 수 있다는 차이가 있으며, 이에 따라 자세조정횟수의 초소화가 생산성 지표로 부각된다. 본 연구에서 개발된 황삭경로 알고리즘은 자세조정횟수를 포함 하여 공구접근영역, 공구교환횟수, 피드조정을 통하여 전체적을 황삭가공시간의 최소화로 접근하였다. 연구된 알고리즘 은 컴퓨터시뮬레이션을 통하여 검증하였으며, 실제절삭을 통한 검증이 추진중에 있다.

This paper deals with the establishment of the cutting direction on inclined plane by using ball end mill. Ball-end milling is widely used for free form surface die and mold. In these machining, the cutting parts vary because the tool tip is hemisphere shaped. The cutting characteristics, such as cutting force, surface roughness and surface profile are varied according to the variation of cutting directions. The effective tool diameter was calculated on different tilt angles and tool-path. Tool life and cutting characteristics were estimated on variation of cutting directions in the same cutting speed. In this paper, the optimal cutting direction which can be applied 3-D sculpture surface cutting is suggested.

In 2D-Profile machining using cutter radius compensation cutter interferences are very common. To prevent the cutter interferences undercuts are inevitable in some regions of the profile. The undercut regions require cleanup machining using smaller radius tools. This paper considers a procedure of the tool path generation for the cleanup profile machining. And two methods are introduced for an efficient tool path generation. One is how to reduce the machining time by uniting adjacent tool paths of undercut regions, and the other is how to find the tool path with the minimal distance by applying TSP algorithm.

Head-up displays for vehicles play an important role in displaying various information about the safety and convenience of driving on the windshield of the vehicle. In this study, ultra-precision machining was performed and evaluated as a method for machining a large-area aspheric free-form mirror that is applicable to augmented reality technology. Precision diamond cutting is highly accurate and suitable for the production of advanced parts with excellent surface integrity, low surface roughness, and low residual stress. By using an aspheric free-form mold, it is possible to improve the optical transfer function, reduce the distortion path, and realize a special image field curvature. To make such a mold, the diamond cutting method was used, and the result was evaluated using an aspherical shape-measuring machine. As a result, it was possible to the mold with shape accuracy (PV) below $1{\mu}m$ and surface roughness (Ra) below $0.02{\mu}m$.

태양전지의 전극소성 시 알루미늄 후면 전극이 실리콘으로 확산되어 후면전계(Back Surface Field)를 형성한다. 후면 패시베이션층은 후면반사율을 높여 내부광흡수경로를 늘리고 후면재결합속도를 감소시킨다. 본 논문은 후면 패시베이션층이 알루미늄 후면전계 형성에 미치는 영향 및 온도에 따른 변화를 관찰하였다. 절삭손상(Saw damage)이 제거된 실리콘 기판의 후면에 패시베이션층이 없는 것과 후면 패시베이션층으로 사용되는 실리콘 산화막을 형성시킨 시편을 제작하였다. 알루미늄 후면전극을 스크린 인쇄 후 소성온도를 달리하여 실리콘과 알루미늄과의 반응을 비교하였다. 주사전자현미경(SEM)을 사용하여 시편의 단면사진으로부터 소성온도에 따른 실리콘과 알루미늄간의 반응 여부를 관찰하였고, 열분석을 통해 반응 온도를 조사하였다. 패시베이션층이 없는 경우에는 약 $600^{\circ}C$부터 실리콘과 알루미늄간의 반응이 시작되었고, 패시베이션층이 있는 경우에는 약 $700^{\circ}C$부터 반응이 시작되는 결과를 얻었다.

In mold machining, there are many concave machining regions where chatter and tool deflection occur since MRR (material removal rate) increases as curvature increases even though cutting speed and depth of cut are constant. Boolean operation between stock and tool model is widely used to compute MRR in NC milling simulation. In finish cutting, the side step is reduced to about 0.3mm and tool path length is sometimes over 300m. so Boolean operation takes long computation time and includes much error if the resolution of stock and tool model is larger than the side step. In this paper, curvature of CL(cutter location) surface and side step of tool path is used to compute the feedrate for constant MRR machining. The data structure of CL surface is Z-map generated from NC tool path. The algorithm to get local curvature from discrete data was developed and applied to compute local curvature of CL surface. The side step of tool path was computed by point density map which includes cutter location point density at each grid element. The feedrate computed from curvature and side step is inserted to new tool path to regulate MRR. The resultants wire applied to feedrate optimization system which generates new tool path with feedrate from NC codes for finish cutting. The system was applied to speaker mold machining. The finishing time was reduced to 12.6%. tool wear was reduced from 2mm to 1.1mm and chatter marks and over cut on corner were removed.

A study on machining electrode for LED (Light Emitted Diode) mold with shaped end-mill is presented. The electrode machining by shaped end-mill has been used for maximizing the productivity in manufacturing semiconductor mold. However, it has not been researched systematically for many difficulties such as the making of shaped end-mill, generation of tool path due to distinctive tool geometry, and so on. Tool path is generated on geometry of the shaped end-mill and cutting force to provide accurate and efficient machining of electrode. The verification program can drive enhancement of productivity, selecting cutting conditions from experiment function of cutting force. Also, compensation of tooling and maching error can make the electrode accurately by modifying tool path. Therefore, the research on machining with shaped end-mill can contribute to enhancement of accuracy and productivity in building semiconductor mold.

This paper presents a machining error compensation methodology due to deflection of micro cutting tools in side cutting processes. Generally in order to compensate for tool deflection errors it is necessary to carry out a series of simulations, cutting force prediction, tool deflection estimation and compensation method. These can induce numerous calculations and expensive costs. This study proposes an improved approach which can compensate for machining errors without simulation processes concerning prediction of cutting force and tool deflection. Based on SEM images of test cutting specimens, polynomial relationships between machining errors and corrected tool positions were induced. Taking into account changes of cutting conditions caused by tool position variation, an iterative algorithm was applied in order to determine corrected tool position. Experimental works were carried out to validate the proposed approach. Comparing machining errors of nominal cutting with those of compensated cutting, overall machining errors could be remarkably reduced.

Automatic magnetic abrasive polishing (MAP), which can be applied after machining of a mold on a machine tool without unloading, is very effective for finishing a free-form surface such as a complicated injection mold. This study aimed to improve the efficiency of MAP of a non-ferrous mold surface. The magnetic array table and control of the electromagnet polarity were applied in the MAP of a free-form surface. In this study, first, the magnetic flux density on the mold surface was simulated to determine the optimal conditions for the polarity array. Then, the MAP efficiency for polishing a non-ferrous mold surface was estimated in terms of the change in the radius of curvature and the magnetic flux density. The most improved surface roughness was observed not only in the upward tool path but also in the working area of larger magnetic flux density.

In this paper, a CAD/CAM system for 5-axis machining of model propeller is introduced. This system has been developed under the environment of personal computer and Windows NT. In order to enhance the productivity, existing text-based design S/W was integrated into this graphic-based system. Non-Uniform Rational B-Spline method is used to represent the sculptured surface of propeller blades and hub using point data, and surface blending between blade and hub is realized in this system. For 5-axis machining of sculptured surface, tool/work collision and interference are checked and inverse kinematic analysis is performed to make NC data. In addition, tool and workpiece are animated on the PC monitor by preparing NC verification module. Finally, optimal cutting conditions are determined empirically and those cutting conditions are integrated into this S/W so that the whole process from design to machining can be done automatically.
