This paper deals with the relation of cutting conditions and damaged layer by investigating cutting force, cutting temperature and residual stress in high speed machining. Damaged layer was measured using optical microscope on samples prepared by metallographic techniques. The scale of this damaged layer depends upon characteristics of cutting force and cutting temperature. Damaged layer depth increases with feed per tooth and radial depth. In a different another way, damaged layer remains almost unchanged according to spindle speed. Therefore, the effective method for decreasing damaged layer is that cut down feed per tooth and radial depth.

In this study, residual stress was investigated experimentally to evaluate damaged layer in high-sped machining. In machining difficult-to-cut material, residual stress remaining in machined surface was mainly speared as compressive stress. The scale of this damaged layer depends upon cutting speed, feed per tooth and radial cutting depth. Damaged layer was measured by optical microscope. The micro-structure of damaged layer was a mixed maternsite and austenite. depth of damaged layer is increased with increasing of cutting temperature, cutting force and radial depth. On the other hand, that is slightly decreased with decreasing of cutting force. The increase of tool wear causes a shift of the maximum residual stress in machined surface layer.

As the technique of high-speed end-milling is widely adopted to in machining field. The investigation for microscopic precision of workpiece is necessary for machinability evolution. In this study, cutting force, cutting temperature and microhardness were investigated to evaluate damaged layer in conventional machining and high-speed machining. Damaged layer was measured using optical microscope. The thickness of damaged layer depends on cutting process parameters, specially feed per tooth and radial depth. It is obtained that the characteristics of damaged layer is high-speed machining better than conventional machining.

In order to obtain the relation between the cutting force and the process parameters in the chamfering process for the gear of a gear shaft, analysis of the process was performed with a simplified model instead of considering the whole actual 3-dimensional cutting situation produced between cutting tool and gear. The model divided the actual situation into the accumulation of hundreds of 2-dimensional layers with a small thickness in the direction of the height of gear and derived cutting force at a cutting position by accumulating each cutting force calculated in a layer. With proposed method to analyze the cutting forces in the chamfering process, it was revealed that the cutting position and size were exactly searched to calculate the cutting force in each layer. The total cutting force was the highest in the corner where the cutter encountered the gear first during the relative motion between them. The cutting forces were changed in proportion to the cutting parameters such as feed rate and trajectory.

Rapid advance in information technology requires high performance devices with compact size. Integrated multi-layer electronic element with different functions enables those compact devices to possess various performances and powerful capabilities. In mass production, the multi-layer electronic element is manufactured as a bulk type with a large number of parts for productivity. However, this may cause the electronic part to be damaged in the cutting process of the bulk elements to separate into each part. Therefore the cutting performance of multi-layer element bulk is playing an important role in the view of production efficiency. This study focuses on the cutting characteristics of multi-layer electronic elements. In order to increase the efficiency, the vibration cutting method was applied to the blade cutting machine. Flexure hinge structure, which is an physical amplifier of increasing displacement, was attached to the vibration cutting device for machining efficiency. The behaviors of flexure hinge were modeled with Lagrange equation and simulated with finite element method (FEM). Performance of hinge structure was verified by experimental modal analysis (EMA) for hinge structure to be tuned to the specific mode of vibrations. Cutting experiments of multi-layer elements were conducted with the proposed vibrating cutting module, and the characteristics was analyzed.

In process planning for 3D pocket machining, the critical issues for the optimal process planning are the generation of cutting layers and the tool selection for each cutting layers as well as the other factors such as the determination of machining types, tool path, etc. This paper describes the optimal tool selection on a single cutting layer for 2D pocket machining, the generation of cutting layers for 3D pocket machining, the determination of the thickness of each cutting layers, the determination of the tool combinations for each cutting layers and also the development of an algorithm for determining the machining sequence which reduces the number of tool exchanges, which are based on the backward approach. The branch and bound method is applied to select the optimal tools for each cutting layer, and an algorithmic procedure is developed to determine the machining sequence consisting of the pairs of the cutting layers and cutting tools to be used in the same operation.

This paper is studied on the effect of TiAlN coated ball end mill on cutting characteristic of high hardness steels in dry cutting condition without coolant. KP4 steels[HRC32] and STD11[HRC60] heat treated steels wert: used as the workpiece and WC-Co ball end mill and single and multi layer TiAlN coated ball end mill were utilized. Results showed that TiAlN coated ball end mill were increased the cutting length than WC-Co ball end mill in the cutting speed$[245\~320m/min]$ about $2\~5$ times for KP4 steels and about $2.7\~4.3$ times for STD11 heat treated steels. The multi layer TiAlN coated ball end mill is good about $1.2\~1.7$ times for KP4 steels and STD11 steels than single layer coated.

The study on damaged layer is necessary for machinability improvement in micro machining. The damaged layer in metal cutting is derived from plastic deformation and transformation of metal structure. The damaged layer affects micro mold life and micro machine parts. In this study, the damaged layer of micro machined surface of copper is evaluated according to various machining condition. The damaged layer structure and metallurgical characteristics are measured by optical microscope, and evaluated by cutting forces and surface roughness. The scale of this damaged layer depends on cutting process parameters and machining environments. By experimental results, depth of damaged layer was increased with increasing of cutting depth, also the damaged layer is less occurred in down-milling compared to up-milling during micro endmilling operation.

Selection of optimal cutting conditions is important for improving productivity and implementing efficient process control in metal machining. In this study, improvement of cutting conditions in machining using end-mills is studied by using deep-layered neural networks, which comprise an input layer, output layer, and two hidden layers. System networks are designed with inputs as cutting conditions, and they output the cutting force. A pseudo-inverse network is designed that has the adjustable cutting condition as output and cutting force and other cutting conditions as input. The combination of the system network and pseudo-inverse network enables selection or improvement of cutting conditions that results in the expected cutting force.

The cutting characteristics and the deformed layer of nitrogen(N)-added type 316LN stainless steel were comparatively investigated to type 316L stainless steel. The cutting force, the surface roughness(Ra) and the tool wear in face milling works were measured with cutting conditions, and the deformed layers were obtained from micro-hardness testing method. The cutting resistance of type 316LN was similar to type 316L in spite of its high strength. The surface roughness of type 316LN was superior to type 316L for all the cutting conditions. In particular, in the high cutting speed above 345m/min, the surface roughness of the two stainless steels was closely same. The deformed layer thickness of the two stainless steels was generated in the 150$\mu\textrm{m}$-300$\mu\textrm{m}$ ranges, and its value of type 316LN was lower than that of type 316L. This is due to the high strength properties by nitrogen effect. It was found that type 316LN was higher in the tool wear than that type 316L, and flank wear was dominant to crater wear. In face milling works of type 316LN steel, tool wear is regarded as a important problem.
