Minimizing the backlash of gears and reducers is important for their proper and precise functioning. In this study, an automatic backlash measuring system was developed for the mass production and quality control of a military-grade reducer. The developed automatic backlash measurement system eliminates human error during the backlash measurement process. It also reduces the manufacturing time and digitizes the backlash number. The system was tested for an aircraft machine gun control reducer that required low-torque and high-precision conditions. The test results show that the torque range was 0.820-4.788 Nm. The maximum torque error is less than 0.231 N·m at 2.943 N·m, and 1.2 arcmin of the maximum backlash error with ± 0.3 arcmin of repeatability. The developed system satisfies all required conditions: torque of 1-3 Nm, torque accuracy within ± 0.5 N·m, and backlash accuracy of ± 3 arcmin.

Micro-features such as grooves and lenses, which perform optical functions in flat displays, should be manufactured with a good form accuracy because this is directly related to their optical performance. As the size of the display increases, it is very difficult to maintain a high relative accuracy because of the inherent geometric errors such as the waviness of a large-area plate. In this paper, the optical effect of these geometric errors is investigated, and surface-referenced micro-grooving to measure and compensate for such geometric errors on line is proposed to improve the form accuracy of the micro-grooves. A PZT-based fast depth adjustment servo system is implemented in the tool holder to maintain a uniform groove depth in reference to the wavy surface. Through experiments, the proposed method is shown to be an efficient way to produce high-quality micro- grooves on a wavy die surface.

The objective of this study is to replace labor intensive forging processes by an automated system. For achieving it, an exclusive mechanism that consists of a positioner, an arm, and a hanger is configured to handle hot forging objects. Also, a structural analysis is applied to the horizontal motion unit, which is the most highly loaded, in order to verify its validity. In addition, its possibility is also verified through identifying the performance of the proposed system before applying it to sites. As a result, the major characteristic items, such as positioning accuracy, material diameter, object traveling weight, product failure rate, and forging process rate, in this system are perfectly verified for applying it to manufacturing sites.

The high speed of an engine balance box may cause significant additional gear noise. Gear accuracy is the most useful key to reduce gear noise, but the small tooth width and thin-walled anti-backlash gear introduce challenges to the manufacturing process. In order to reduce the gear noise caused by gear pitch error, this paper investigates the correlation between influencing factors and gear pitch error by analyzing the processing technology, tooling fixture, and equipment accuracy. By improving the process and optimizing the gear design, the gear machining accuracy was improved and the processing cost was saved.

The quality of a precision product, in general, relies on the accuracy and precision of its manufacturing and inspection process. In many cases, the level of precision in the manufacturing and inspection system is also dependent on the positioning capability of tool with respect to the work piece in the process. Recently the positioning accuracy level has reached to the level of submicron and long range of motion is required. For example, for 1 GDARM lithography, 20nm accuracy and 300mm stroke needs. This paper refers to the lithography stage especially to fine stage. In this study, for long stroke and high accuracy, the dual servo system is proposed. For the coarse actuator, LDM (Linear DC Motor) is used and for fine one VCM is used. In this study, we propose the new structure of VCM for the fine actuator. It is 3 axis precision positioning stage for an aligner system. After we perform the optimal design of the stage to obtain the maximum force, which is related to the acceleration of the stage to accomplish throughput of product. And we controlled this fine stage with TDC. So we obtained 50nm resolution. So later more works will be done to obtain better accuracy.

With recent increased demand for reverse engineering in dental machining, the 3D laser scanner is widely used for inspection of artificial pontic. In order to overcome the optical drawback of laser scanner, such as irregular scatter, direction of beam, and the influence of surface integrity, it is developed in this study a new 3D measuring system for artificial pontic using spherical coordinate system mechanism by point laser sensor, which keeps the direction of beam normal to surface consistently. The comprehensive integrated system is established to evaluate the improvement of accuracy with data acquisition system. The experimental results for measuring a master ball and pontic models shows the excellent form accuracy and repeatability compared with conventional apparatus. Also, these results shows the possibility to apply this system for the measuring purpose within 0.05mm accuracy of pontic at the sharp edge or margin contour, which was difficult to measure at the conventional systems.

Defect detection during liquid crystal display (LCD) manufacturing has always been a critical challenge. This study aims to address this issue by proposing a data augmentation method based on generative adversarial networks (GAN) to improve defect identification accuracy in LCD production. By leveraging synthetically generated image data from GAN, we effectively augment the original dataset to make it more representative and diverse. This data augmentation strategy enhances the model's generalization capability and robustness on real-world data. Compared to traditional data augmentation techniques, the synthetic data from GAN are more realistic, diverse and broadly distributed. Experimental results demonstrate that training models with GAN-generated data combined with the original dataset significantly improves the detection accuracy of critical defects in LCD manufacturing, compared to using the original dataset alone. This study provides an effective data augmentation approach for intelligent quality control in LCD production.

This study focused on the application of ELID mirror-surface grinding technology to the manufacture of off-axis asymmetric large-area reflecting mirrors made of BK7 glass. The size of the parts, such as asymmetric large-area mirrors or lens, made form-accuracy or roughness especially hard to measure after machining because of the measuring range limit of measurement devices. In this study, the ELID grinding system has been set up for mirror-surface machining experiments manufacturing off-axis asymmetric lenses. A measuring method using a reference workpiece has been suggested to measure the form-accuracy and roughness. According to the experimental results, even when using only a reference workpiece, it is confirmed that the surface roughness was 8 nmRa and form-accuracy was 80 nmRMS, with a best fit asymmetric radius when using a grinding wheel of #8,000. It is found that the accuracy of large-area parts could be estimated by the proposed process.

According to the development of tool material and the improvement of machinability of cutting material like aluminium alloy, the higher spindle speed is needed. However, the higher speed causes the heat generation of bearings, the deformation of spindle unit parts, and the rotational accuracy of spindle to be worse. Therefore, it is essential to analyze and control the heat generation and the thermal behavior of spindle unit in order to have higher speed and better rotational accuracy. This paper shows the analogy between the analyzation of heat generation and thermal behavior of high speed spindle system by finite element method and the test results of actual temperature rise through running test, and shows the necessity of cooling the spindle and inner ring side of bearings for the thermal balance of high speed spindle system.
