This paper is about the analysis on the vibration characteristic of tooling units on the precision bed in turning and hobbing automatic lathe for precision machining. An automatic lathe operating at about 12,000 RPM is a critical factor in the self-weight stress and deformation of the bed. Especially, the resonance frequency should be grasped in advance to prevent abnormal vibration that may occur during processing. If the wrong bed is used, the resonant frequency can have a fatal influence on the precision machining and increase the defective rate of precision machined parts such as semiconductor parts. In this paper, vibration characteristics were evaluated through static load and resonance frequency analysis of automatic lathe bed. As a result, the maximum stress was 14.52 MPa, the maximum deformation amount was $12.15{\mu}m$, and the natural frequency was 189.43 Hz. The resonance frequency was calculated as 500 Hz, and the stability was confirmed by being in the range of 200 Hz or more, which is the processing condition.

The tank engine clutch flange constitutes a tank on which the engine and transmission of the tank are mounted. The engine clutch flange is fabricated using a difficult-to-cut material that exhibits high strength and hardness. It is difficult to process and requires considerable processing expertise. In addition, the engine clutch flange for the tank requires high machining precision because it is a system in which the connection is detachable. Because it requires high processing precision, the measurement of products equally important as processing. However, productivity is low owing to the significant amount of time required to measure each product using a three-dimensional coordinate measuring machine. Hence, this study is conducted to improve the productivity of the female tank engine clutch flange. Dedicated hobs and jigs are designed and manufactured to convert the existing end-mill cutting processing into hobbing cutting processing. An engine clutch for the tanks is manufactured using the manufactured dedicated hob and jig, and the shortening time is verified by measuring the processing time. In addition, a jig for inspection is designed and manufactured to measure the precision of the product. To verify the inspected product, the product precision is measured using a contact-type three-dimensional coordinate measuring machine and a surface roughness measuring instrument. The study confirmed that the productivity of the engine clutch flange product for tanks can be improved by simplifying the process, reducing the processing time, and simplifying product inspection.
