This study is on wear damage of the material for a molding machine that be used at finally cutting of metal beam made in roll forming process of vehicle bump beam process line. SKD11 steel was used with the material for cutting mold jig. In the cutting mold jig, Ti diffusion heat treatment after vacuum heat treatment was carried out for upgrade of surface hardness and anti-wear. Also, the heat treatments by various methods were performed to compare the wear damage degree against above the existing heat treatment. Wear loss and friction coefficient were obtained from wear test. And, micro Vickers hardness values were compared with damaged parts or not of cutting mold jig. Micro Vickers hardness value appeared higher at the undamaged part by Ti diffusion heat treatment. The micro Vickers hardness well followed a two-parameter Weibull probability distribution.

In this study, statistical and neural network methods were used to recognize the cutting tool states. This system employed the tool dynamometer and cutting force signals which are processed from the tool dynamometer sensor using linear discriminent function. To learn the necessary input/output mapping for turning operation diagnosis, the weights and thresholds of the neural network were adjusted according to the error back propagation method during off-line training. The cutting conditions, cutting force ratios and statistical values(standard deviation, coefficient of variation) attained from the cutting force signals were used as the inputs to the neural network. Through the suggested neural network a cutting tool states may be successfully diagnosed.

Cutting by a high speed laser cutting machine is one of most effective technologies to improve productivity. This paper has studied to obtain the cutting characteristics and optimal cutting conditions in a high speed feeding type laser cutting machine by Tacuchi method in design of experiments. A Lf(34) orthogonal array is adopted to study the effect of adjustment parameter. The adjustment parameters consist of cutting speed, laser power, laser output duty and assistant gas pressure. And the quality feature is selected as surface roughness of sheet metal. Variance analysis is performed in order to evaluate the effect of adjustment parameters on the quality feature of laser cutting process.

This study presents an electronic catalogue based cutting parameter selection system using MS Access software. The proposed system has been designed to electronically select proper cutting conditions based on the stored data base. The existing approaches used in most small and medium sized companies are basically to use manufacturing engineer's experience or to find the recommended values from the manufacturing engineer handbook. These processes are often time consuming and inconsistent, especially when a new engineer is involved. Therefore, this study proposes a simple, yet quick and consistent electronic catalogue based cutting parameter selection method which uses MS Access in terms of programming and database implementation. Consequently, the proposed system could automatically generate the proper cutting conditions (feed, depth of cut, and cutting speed) as soon as the input data (proper information about the tool and work material) is given. Thanks to the simple structure and popularity of the MS Access, the engineer could be quickly accustomed to the system and easily modify/insert/delete the database if necessary.

Titanium used in industry has been widely applied for aerospace important parts and automobile important parts, etc. because the titanium is higher in strength compared to the steel and light in weight compared to the steel. This study is to investigate the effect of cutting tool cooling method and cutting time on the spindle speed and feed rate of vertical machining center as a parameter to find the rough cutting time in the medium speed cutting machining of the titanium alloy. It is found that the cutting machining heat are increased as the feed rate, cutting time and spindle speed are raised.

Owing to governmental regulations and concern regarding the safety of the environment, environmental conscious machining technology has become important in today's manufacturing industries. However, cutting conditions in metal cutting processes must also consider traditional dimensions such as production cost, production time and quality of a final product. The purpose of this study is to determine the cutting conditions in achieving a balanced consideration of productivity and environmental consciousness. The environmental factors such as cutting fluid, toxicity and energy are considered in metal cutting processes. In order to consider the relationship between environmental impacts and machining parameter, two factors of the metal cutting processes in this study are considered: cutting fluid and tool life. The experimental results are provided and discussed.

The biggest challenge facing today's manufacturing industry is better quality and high productivit. From an economic point of view, productivity is the most important parameter, as high productivity will reduce the cost. However, the customers of today are not only cost concerned, but also quality conscious. So high accuracy levels should also be achieved in the manufacturing process. The aim of this paper is to get a comprehensive understanding of its machinability properties and to investigate the relationship between cutting conditions and surface roughness for Ball End Mill cutting process so as to enhance its practical application.

CNC lathe machining has been widely used for parts machining of vehicles, aircraft, ships, electronics, etc. because cost savings for shortening processing time and increasing productivity are great. In this study, the purpose is to investigate the effect of cooling methods such as oil mist, water-soluble cutting oils on the workpiece surface roughness with the cutting speed, cutting depth, tool nose radius and feed rate of CNC lathe machine as a parameter in the cutting process of the aluminum alloy 2024 which is used a lot recently on aircraft parts. It is found that oil mist is coolant and water-soluble cooled by cutting the experimental conditions, cutting speed and cutting depth without effecting the surface roughness value was constant.

Using NC or CNC machine tool, the unmanned automatic production system has been growing recently in the manufacturing field. Thus it is important to find out the machinability of cutting force, tool wear and surface roughness during the cutting process. It is necessary to find how to estimate the machinability for the effective cutting condition because of problem about cutting power, tool wear, cutting time and precision. This study was planned to discover the relations of tool wear by variations of roughness and derived to correlate the wear with the surface roughness on the cutting parameter(cutting force, flank wear, surface roughness, friction angle, shear angle, slenderness ratio) when the aluminum alloy was cut in turning.
