In this paper, we propose a new precise control technology of robotic gripper for assembling and handling of part. When a robot manipulator interacts mechanically with its environment to perform tasks such as assembly or edge-finishing, the end-effector is thereby constrained by the environment. Therefore grasping force control is very important, since it increases safety due to monitoring of contact force. A comparison of various force control architecture is reported. Different force control methods can often be configured to achieve similar results for a given task, and the choice of control algorithm depends strongly on the application or on the characteristics of a particular robot. In the research, the adjustable gripping force can be controlled and improved the accuracy using the artificial intelligence techniques.

In manufacturing sites that process and produce parts in large quantities for the automotive and electronics industries, users require the reducing of costs and shortened delivery times. To meet these demands, an increase in the number of processes and an decrease in assembly times need to be addressed. Gantry loaders currently on the market in Korea are mostly used for processing lightweight and simple shapes and are not suitable for conveying and processing complex shapes such as automobile engines and aircraft parts. This makes it difficult to mount the material in place. This study aims to smoothen the transportation of complex shapes through the development of jigs and various approaches in the installation of the feed shaft by researching the gantry loader system for transporting multiple materials with complex shapes.

Hydrogen energy is the clean energy source of the future. Ultra-high-pressure hydrogen is used in hydrogen stations, with its parts being developed. On the other hand, ultra-high-pressure ball valve, which is one of its parts, depends on overseas, with the level of domestic research on this being only about 10% of advanced technology research on this abroad. In this study, the shape of an ultra-high-pressure ball valve for a hydrogen station was designed to improve its structural strength. The valve body was designed according to distance between both processed body holes along inlet and outlet ports. The designed vale body was then analyzed using ANSYS to check whether points with stress were concentrated. In addition, the valve with improved body was analyzed to confirm that the valve satisfied the design condition.

Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) parts are made by piling up thin layers that cause the stair stepping effect at the surface of FDM parts. This effect brings about poor surface roughness of the part and requires additional post machining such as manual finishing that is detrimental to the part geometry and time consuming. Determining optimal build orientation for FDM parts can be one solution to minimize the post machining. However, by using the CAD model, calculating the optimal build orientation is impractical due to heavy computing process. In order to calculate the optimal build orientation with high speed. the surface roughness model based on measured data and interpolation is newly developed in this research. Also. the genetic algorithm (GA) is applied for acquiring reliable solution. Finally, It is verified from the test that the presented approach is very efficient for reducing the additional post machining process fer FDM parts.

The effect of Post Weld Heat Treatment(PWHT) of RE36 steel for marine structure was investigated with parameters such as micro-vickers hardness, corrosion potential and corrosion current density of weld metal(WM), base metal(BM) and heat affected zone(HAZ), and both Al alloy anode generating current and Al alloy anode weight loss quantity etc. Hardness of post-weld heat treated BM, WM and HAZ is lower than that of As-welded condition of each region. However, hardness of HAZ was the highest among those three parts regardless of PWHT temperature and corrosion potential of WM was the highest among those three parts without regard to temperature and corrosion potential of WM was the highest among those three parts without regard to PWHT temperature. The amplitude of corrosion potential difference of each other three parts at PWHT temperature $550^{\circ}C$, $650^{\circ}C$ are smaller than that of three parts by As-welded condition and corrosion current density obtained by PWHT was also smaller than that of As-welded condition. Eventually, it was known that corrosion resistance was increased by PWHT. However both Al anode generating current and anode weight loss quantity were also decreased by PWHT compare to As-welded condition when RE36 steel is cathodically protected by Al anode. Therefore, it is suggested that the optimum PWHT temperature with increasing corrosion resistance and cathodic protection effect is $550^{\circ}C$.

In order to improve the fuel economy and dynamic behavior of automobiles, the weight reduction tendency of automobile parts is obvious. Also, in order to maximize assembly and maintenance convenience, various parts are integrated and modularized. Multi-piece methods require many manufacturing processes and become a factor of lowering the strength of parts. It is advantageous to overcome the disadvantages by integrally manufacturing to reduce the processing steps and ensure the strength of the parts. However, when it is necessary to process in a narrow space inside the part, it is impossible to process with the existing spindle. The angle head spindle is only a component of a machine tool, but it is a core part that requires high technology and is highly utilizable in products requiring high precision machining. Therefore, various and continuous studies needs for angle head spindles in areas such as vibration absorption, operational safety, excellent dimensional stability, and strength. In this paper, we propose an optimal design for angle head spindle by performing structural analysis and shape optimization for angle head spindle gear and case.

Due to the recent global recession, the car industry demand levels have plummeted which led to a crisis in the automotive parts industry for the first time in history. Since the fourth quarter of 2008, the automotive parts manufacturers in America have faced a record loss and those in Japan and Europe who also had a strong track record are facing a weak economy. In addition, the domestic automotive parts industry is also affected by the global economic crisis. This research is that the relative efficiency analysis utilizing the DEA has done on the object of 25 small and medium-sized automotive parts manufacturers publicly listed, As the efficiency analysis result 6 of 25 manufacturers are efficient in CCR model and 12 manufactures have shown efficiency in BCC model, the efficiency analysis in consideration of the manufacturer size. The manufacturers with efficiency 1 in 25 manufacturers are DMU 1, 5, 7, 10, 18, 24 and the relatively benchmarking objects in other manufactures are DMU 1, 10, 24, Based on the results of this research, a direction to the domestic automotive parts manufacturers as well as a significant information will be provided in managing the companies in the future by the improvement of management efficiency through the practical efficiency analysis.

It was known that the excellent wear resistance of hyper eutectic aluminum alloy is based on the primary Si particles which are distributed in the base metal. When the primary Si volume fraction increases, the smaller size have excellent wear resistance characteristics. However, this trend always does not match. There is no investigation result based on the materials and methods for real using parts. In this study, using the automotive parts manufacturer currently in use hyper eutectic Al alloy tensile test specimen type sample was fabricated by 350Ton high pressure die-casting machine. Then, fluidity, tensile, impact and wear resistance properties were evaluated. If the casting quality, primary Si size, fraction and distribution are similar, mechanical properties and wear resistance are equivalent.
