In order to study the shearing characteristics of anti-vibration sheet metal which has been bonded by resin, a blanking die of 40.02mm was manufactured to blank a material and it is used to reduce vibrational noise. The variables employed in this study were 1) Clearance 2) types of stripper plate, and 3) types of the die design technique. These variables were used to study the effects on burr height, diameter of product, and camber height. Lastly, the effect of the position of the rubber during blanking was observed. In the case of burr height from experimental investigation, the push-back die, combined with a movable stripper plate, resulted in the concentration of additional pressure between the cutting edges, meaning the crack initiation was delayed. This result was not affected by lubrication, although appropriate lubrication is preferred to enable a longer lasting die in terms of wear, which results from the presence of adhesive as the sheet metal is blanked. In the comparison of diameter measurement, the push-back die, combined with the back pressure from the knock-out plate showed a favorable precision. The use of the push back die with a fixed stripper plate, with a $4.5\%$ clearance, showed better accuracy in the diameter measurement. For comparing camber height, the push back die resulted in less cambering than the drop-through die. Also, the larger the clearance, the greater was the camber height. Considering experimental results, the shearing of anti-vibrational sheet metal is best achieved when the rubber is laying on the top, blanked with a fixed-stripper plate in a push-back die, with a $4.5\%$ clearance.

In order to inspect burr geometry and hole quality in micro-drilling processes, a cost-effective method using an image processing and shape from focus (SFF) methods on the machine tool is proposed. A CCD camera with a zoom lens and a novel illumination unit is used in this paper. Since the on-machine vision unit is incorporated with the CNC function of the machine tool, direct measurement and condition monitoring of micro-drilling processes are conducted between drilling processes on the machine tool. Stainless steel and hardened tool steel are used as specimens, as well as twist drills made of carbide are used in experiments. Validity of the developed system is confirmed through experiments.

The integrity and accuracy of the drilling hole are decided by positional error, diameter error, the roundness, the straightness, the cylindericity, size of the burr, the surface roundness and others. Among these parameters, positional error and diameter error have the most important parameters. The diameter error has been widely studied, but there has been little research done about the positional error due to the difficulty of measuring it. The measurement of hole location and diameter would be performed by CMM(Coordinate Measurement Machine). However, the usage of CMM requires much time and cost. In order to overcome the difficulties, we have developed a hole location and diameter error measuring device using machine vision. The developed measurement device attached to a CNC machine can determine hole quality quickly and easily.

This paper is concerned with manufacturing technology of thin foil tensile specimen using CIP(Cold Isostatic Press) and measurement of precision mechanical properties using micro tensile testing. We can get a burr free micro metallic thin foil specimen using this technology. For testing mechanical property of this micro thin foil, we use a nano scale material testing machine that was developed by KITECH. In this paper, micro tensile specimens of nickel and copper thin foil are fabricated with CIP and precision mechanical properties of these materials could be measured. We will expect precision mechanical property of micro/nano material and component.

A new via cutting structure in 2-layer DRAM package substrate has been fabricated to lower its power distribution network(PDN) impedance. In new structure, part of the via is cut off vertically and its remaining part is designed to connect directly with the bonding pad on the package substrate. These via structure and substrate design not only provide high routing density but also improve the PDN impedance by shortening effectively the path from bonding pad to VSSQ plane. An additional process is not necessary to fabricate the via cutting structure because its structure is completed at the same time during a process of window area formation. Also, burr occurrence is minimized by filling the via-hole inside with a solder resist. 3-dimensional electromagnetic field simulation and S-parameter measurement are carried out in order to validate the effects of via cutting structure and VDDQ/VSSQ placement on the PDN impedance. New DRAM package substrate has a superior PDN impedance with a wide frequency range. This result shows that via cutting structure and power/ground placement are effective in reducing the PDN impedance.

The flashing reduces the part quality and the productivity of the molding process. We developed a contact pressure sensor to detect the flashing immediately. The performance of the sensor was analyzed in a simple 2D simulation. The sensor was applied to an automotive bumper mold with cavity pressure sensors. It showed sensitive output signal for the mold response by the cavity pressure change. It was confirmed that the flashing at the gate area occurred in the filling stage by the pressure increase due to growth of the melt flow length. The sensor output was correlated with the cavity pressure sensor output.

Since human is vulnerable to emotional, physical and environmental distractions, most human inspectors cannot sustain a consistent 8-hour inspection in a day specifically for small components like door locking levers. As an alternative for human inspection, presented in this study is the development of a machine vision inspection system (MVIS) purposely for door locking levers. Comprises the development is the structure of the MVIS components, designed to meet the demands, features and specifications of door locking lever manufacturing companies in increasing their production throughput upon keeping the quality assured. This computer-based MVIS is designed to perform quality measures of detecting missing portions and defects like burr on every door locking lever. NI Vision Builder software for Automatic Inspection (AI) is found to be the optimum solution in configuring the needed quality measures. The proposed software has measurement techniques such as edge detecting and pattern-matching which are capable of gauging, detecting missing portion and checking alignment. Furthermore, this study exemplifies the incorporation of the optimized NI Builder inspection environment to the pre-inspection and post-inspection subsystems.

This paper proposes a method to process the shape of an optical transmission road and attempts to determine the most suitable single processing method for an acrylic plate optical transmission road. In addition, by manufacturing an automatic pattern processing device to generate certain shapes on the acrylic plate at regular intervals, and measuring the illuminance of the patterned acrylic plate optical transmission road, the measured illuminance was confirmed to fall under the KS illuminance values presented in Table 1. In conclusion, when an incident light of approximately 20,000 lx is applied, the transmission illumination is approximately 200 lx, which represents a transmission rate of approximately 1% for incident light and corresponds to the KS illumination criterion F. Additionally, the right-angle triangular pyramid base size (A) processed at a temperature of 350 ℃ for one second was 2 mm, exhibiting the largest transmission illumination of 280 lx. When the transparent acrylic plate was set to a constant size of 1.6 mm at the bottom of the right-angle triangular pyramid, the fastest response occurred at a processing tip temperature of 350 ℃ (0.04 s). On the other hand, it took 10 s to process the size of the bottom of the right-angled triangular pyramid at a temperature of 200 ℃ to 1.6 mm, and it was confirmed that the optical transmission efficiency was significantly reduced because of the burr that occurred at this time.
