In recent manufacturing process, the increase of productivity has been attempted by reducing machining time with the increase of cutting force. However, the excessive increase of cutting force can cause tool breakage and have a bad effect on both manufacturing machine and workpiece. Thus, it is necessary to estimate and control the cutting force in real time during the process. In this study, use of disturbance observer is proposed for the indirect cutting force estimation. The estimated cutting force is used for the real-time control of feedrate, making the actual cutting force follow the reference force command. Since the suggested method does not need an expensive sensor like a dynamometer, the method is expected to be used practically. Since the actual cutting force follow the reference force, resulting the reducing of the machining time the increase of productivity are also expected, and the quality of cutting surface has been improved due to the adjusted feedrate. Besides, an actual constant cutting force guarantees the prevention of tool breakage. To show the effectiveness of the suggested cutting force control method, an experimental setup has been made without sensor and applied to several workpieces. Experiments show that the suggested method is effective to cutting force control of a CNC machining center.

Due to the development of the CNC machine tool and CAM software, sculptured surface machining can be broadly used in die and mold industries and ball end milling process is often used for the sculptured surface machining. It is found out how feedrate affects the precision of the machining and also tried to study the most suitable feedrate in specific cutting condition. Two eddy current sensors were used far measuring tool deflections of X, Y axis, dynamometer for cutting force and roundness tester for roundness. It was found that the tool deflection is getting better as tool path is going to further from the center of convex surface. The reason is that the cutting force is increased as the tool approaches to the center. Examining the roundness, cutting force and tool deflection characteristics, it was found that the most suitable feedrate is 90mm/min in convex surface and 120mm/min in concave surface.

High-efficient machining, which means cutting a part in the least amount of time, is the most effective tool to improve productivity. In this study, a new feed optimization method based on the cutting power regulation was proposed to realize the high-efficient machining in turning process. The cutting area was evaluated by using the Boolean intersection operation between the cutting tool and workpiece. And the cutting force and power were predicted from the cutting parameters such as feed, depth of cut, spindle speed, specific cutting force, and so on. Especially, the reliability of the proposed optimization method was validated by comparing the predicted and measured cutting forces. The simulation results showed that the proposed optimization method could effectively enhance the productivity in turning process.

Feed and spindle motor currents are used toi monitor the cutting process practically. The sensitivity of spindle drive system is lower than that of feed drive system, but the cutting torque is represented well by the spindle motor current. During multi-axis cutting, it is difficult to calculate the resultant cutting force using feed motor currents, because each feed force is reflected by each axis feed motor current with different time delay. It is also difficult to compensate the frictional torque using the feed motor current, because the magnitude of the frictional torque is dependent of the feedrate, table position, and cutting direction. On the other hand, cutting torque can be estimated well using spindle motor current which is independent of the cutting direction.

For domestic aircraft industry, not mass production of components is limited, small production scale of the order is made by part because many kinds of hundreds of thousands of kinds of small quantity batch production system are taking. But the high reliability and stability are required during the processing because they require high precision parts are required. It is found that when C-axis rotation speed was increased, the diameter of the cutting tool decreased with increasing surface roughness, while the turn-mail feed rate was increased with increasing the surface roughness.

High-efficient machining, which means to machine a part in the least amount of time, is the most effective tool to improve productivity. In this study, a new feed optimization method based on virtual manufacturing was proposed to realize the high-efficient machining in turning process through the cutting power regulation.

And the cutting force and power were predicted from the cutting parameters such as feed, depth of cut, spindle speed, specific cutting force, and so on. Especially, the reliability of the proposed optimization method was validated by comparing the predicted and measured cutting forces.

A research on the AFC(Auto Feedrate Control) by a fuzzy controller using a tool dynamometer and motor currents was conducted. For simulations, cutting dynamics of end-milling process was modeled by geometric relationship between tool and work-piece. The fuzzy logic controller was employed to track the desired cutting force and showed good performance in simulations and several experiments. The spindle motor currents was modeled to estimate cutting force and successfully used for the AFC.

This paper presents a study on the effect of feedrate changes on the fatigue life of Al 7075-T6 specimens before and after shotpeening. For this purpose. five groups of specimens, each of which consists of eight specimens, were first machined at five different feedrates (0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20 0.25 mm/rev). Half of eight specimens in each group were then peened and the others remained un-peened Finally, the fatigue life of each specimen was measured by using 4-point rotatry bending machine. Comparison of fatigue life among ten sets of specimens is presented.

Drilling is an indispensable process in manufacturing of the die and mould and the other mechanical parts which needs high dimensional and surface accuracy. In this paper, a new type of drilling method was proposed in order to improve both processing efficiency and accuracy. Specifically, the helical motion using ball end mill tools, instead of normal drilling method, was applied to perform an effective hole machining. In this paper, an theoretical background of the new type of drilling method was established, and the feasibility of the proposed theory was proved by experiments, where proposed drilling process in the paper gave a different machining specification than general method did.
