Among the micro machining techniques, micro EDM is generally used for machining micro holes, pockets, and micro structures on difficult-cut-materials. Micro EDM parameters such as applied voltage, capacitance, peak current, pulse width, duration time are very important to fabricate the tool electrode and produce the micro structures. Developed micro EDM machine is composed of a 3-axis driving system and RC circuit equipped with pulse generator. In this paper, using micro EDM machine, the characteristics of micro EDM process are investigated and it is applied to micro holes, slots, and pockets machining. Through experiments, relations between machined surface and voltages and between MRR and feedrate are investigated. Also the trends of tool wear are investigated in case of hole and slot machining.

This study covers the optimum design of the 5-axis machine tool. In addition, the intelligent control secures structural stability through the optimum design of the structure of the 5-axis machine center, main spindle, and the tilting index table. The big requirement, like above, ultimately leads to speed-up operation. And this is inevitable to understand the vibration phenomenon and its related mechanical phenomenon in terms of productivity and its accuracy. In general, the productivity is correlated with the operation speed and it has become bigger by its vibration scale and the operation speed so far. Vibration phenomenon and its heat-transformation of the machine is naturally occurred during the operation. If these entire machinery phenomenons are interpreted through the constructive understanding and the interpretation of the naturally produced vibration and heat-transformation, it would be very useful to improve the rapidity and its stability of the machine operation indeed. In this dissertation, the problems of structure through heating, stability, dynamic aspect and safety about intelligent 5-wheel machine tool are discovered to examine. All these discoveries are applied to the structure in order to enhance the density of it. It aims to improve the stability.

Intelligent machines respond to external environments on the basis of decisions that are made by sensing the changes in the environment and analyzing the obtained information. This study focuses on the construction of a knowledge base which enables decision making with that information. Approximately 70% of all errors that occur in machine tools are caused by thermal error. In order to proactive deal with these errors, a system which measures the temperature of each part and predicts and compensates the displacement of each axis has been developed. The system was built in an open type controller to enable machine tools to measure temperature changes and compensate the displacement. The construction of a machining knowledge base is important for the implementation of intelligent machine tools, and is expected to be applicable to the network based intelligent machine tools which look set to appear sooner or later.

The online realtime positioning error compensation system 'SKY-PACS' is developed to correct geometric errors, thermal errors and tool deflection errors induced by cutting forces on the vertical machining center. 'SKY-PACS' communicates position commands and position compensation signals with the CNC controller at 100Hz, which is CNC control frequency. So the compensation procedure can be applied during axis movement. Using 'SKY-PACS', Maximum 1 axis positioning accuracy was corrected from 5{\mu}m$ to 2{\mu}m$and the squareness error of X-Y table was corrected from 51{\mu}m$/m to below 4{\mu}m$/m. The error compensation under the cutting condition is carried out by ISO10791-7. And the measurement of test-pieces shows that the roundness is corrected rom 8{\mu}m$ to below 5{\mu}m$.

This paper presents a fairing method for reverse engineering of a free-formed surface. Utilizing measured data points, reverse engineering is a useful method to construct a CAD model from physical model. Measured data points should be faired since raw data may have outliers. A fairing algorithm of polynomial regression model generates smooth curves of approximation in this paper. The faired curves are utilized to construct a free-formed surface. For a verifying example, an impeller blade is digitized with a CMM to collect raw data on the surfacce and a CAD model is constructed. This research produces impeller blades with 5-axis machining center through the CAD model and compares them with a physical model. As a result the produced surface modeled with the fairing method gives less error than that without the fairing.

In the study, the effect grinding condition on the workpiece arithmetical average roughness(Ra) to 10 steps leading to cutting each section with the spindle rotational speed 8000rpm and feed rate 150mm/min of grinding in GC(green silicon carbide) grinding processing after heat treatment and non heat treatment of SCM415 material. Also the following conclusions were obtained analysis of stress distribution displacement and finite elements method(FEM) on assemble parts with 3+2 axis simultaneous control through grinding and gave a load 11kg on ATC arm both sides gave a load of 11kg. For the centerline average roughness(Ra) in the heat and non-heat treatment work pieces, which were appeared the most favorable in the fifth section were $0.511{\mu}m$ and $0.514{\mu}m$, that were shown in the near the straight line section was the smallest deformation of curve. In addition, the bad surface roughness appeared on the path is too long by changing angle, the more inclined depth of cut, because the chip discharging is not smoothly.

오늘날 자동차의 연비 향상 과 동적 거동 향상을 위해서 자동차 부품의 경량화 및 간소화 시대가 형성되고 있다. 설계와 제작의 간소화를 위해 제품 형상을 다양한 부품의 일체화로 진행되고 있다. 예를 들어 3개의 제품을 1개의 제품화 시키기 위해서 아주 협소한 부분까지 제품 가공하는 일이 발생되고 있다. 기존의 부품의 경우 가공의 편의성을 위해 정밀 다이캐스팅 또는 주물 생산으로 가공 후 조립하는데 다중 조립체(multi-piece) 방식은 공정수가 많이 필요로 하며, 부품의 정밀도와 강도를 저하시키는 요인이 된다. 가공 공정을 단순화 시키고 부품의 강도를 확보하기 위해서 일체형으로 제작하는 것이 단점을 극복하는데 매우 유리하지만 깊고 좁은 포켓 부분을 가공 할 경우 장비 자체 스핀들로는 가공이 불가능하다. 문제점을 해결하고자 절삭가공에 대한 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있으며, 다축 복합가공 기술은 이러한 문제점을 해결할 뿐만 아니라, 지금까지 하나의 공작기계로 여러 공정에 따른 유연한 절삭가공이 어려웠던 복합 형상에도 절삭가공이 가능하다는 등 많은 장점을 가지고 있다. 하지만 고가의 장비로 인하여 제조경비 상승과 기계를 운영할 수 있는 기술자가 부족한 것이 현실이다. 5축 절삭 가공기에서는 깊고 협소한 구간의 제품을 생산할 때 공구의 간접으로 제품 생산에 사이클 타임이 늘어남은 물론 가공상에 문제점들이 많이 발생된다. 따라서 전용 공작기계 및 다축 복합가공기를 사용해야 한다. 그 대안으로 3축 머시닝센터에서 5축 이상의 다축 복합가공을 할 수 있는 특수 공구로서의 앵글 스핀들(angle spinde)이 사용될 수 있다. 앵글 스핀들 사용함으로 가공 진동 흡수, 낮은 열 발생과 작동 안정성, 우수한 치수 안정성, 강도 확보와 같은 분야에서 다양하고 지속적인 연구가 필요하다.

가스터빈 회전익이나 고정익 에어포일이 지닌 3 차원 곡면형상의 복잡성은 제조산업뿐만 아니라 재생정비 공정조차 어렵게 만드는 요인이다. CNC 기반기술을 이용한 공작기계와 공정 관련 프로그램들은 1990 년대부터 발달하기 시작한 컴퓨터 기술 덕분에 급속히 개발되면서 가스터빈 분야로 그 응용범위를 넓혀 나가고 있다. 특히 적응형 기능을 겸비한 5 축 동기 제어형 생산장비들은 유연한 공정능력과 손실된 부위의 형상 정보를 결정하는데 탁월한 성능을 보이고 있다. 8 축 동기제어가 가능하도록 구비된 로봇형 공정시스템은 매우 강력한 공정절차 표준화를 이룰 수 있게 할 뿐만 아니라 높은 생산성도 가져다 준다. 이 논문에서는 가스터빈 산업에서 CNC 기반기술의 응용현황을 검토하고, 부품 제조산업과 재생정비 산업의 공정비교와 개발사례를 통해 향후 전망을 제시한다.
