The technique of high speed machining is widely studied in machining field. Because the high efficiency and accuracy in machining can be obtained in high speed machining. Unfortunately the development of tool for high speed machining is not close behind that of machining tool. So in this study, we made 4 types flat end mill for obtaining data according to tool shape. Especially, we concentrated in helix angle and number of cutting edge. First we confirmed cutting condition by several experiments and measuring cutting force, tool life, tool wear and chip shape according to cutting length. In results, we acquired the fact that 45 degree helix angle and six cutting edge tool is suitable for high speed machining.

Rapid Prototyping(RP) is an efficient method for rapid design verification and trial manufacturing. In order to improve their unique characteristics according to the working principles. Variable Lamination Manufacturing process and corresponding CAD/CAM system is developed. The objective of this study is to improve dimensional accuracy of VLM-ST process, and it can be done by offset for cutting error correction, cutting path correction for sharp edge and reference shape generation. To verify the proposed algorithms, they applied to three-dimensional shapes, such as spanner and mechanical part.

The dimensional accuracy and global roughness between successive layers of VLM-s, which is a new rapid prototyping process using hotwire cutter and EPS foam, depend significantly on the operating parameters of hotwire cutter. In the present study, the effect of cutting angle on the kerf width and edge shape in hotwire cutting of EPS foam for the case of single-sloped cutting with one cutting angle was investigated. Through single-sloped cutting tests, the modified relationship between kerf width and effective heat input, considering the effect of the cutting angle, and the relationship between the melted area and the cutting angle were obtained. In order to investigate the effect of cutting angles on the thermal field in EPS foam, transient heat transfer analyses using single-sloped volumetric heat flux model and locally-conformed mesh were performed. Through the comparison between experimental and numerical results, it was shown that the proposed analysis model is needed to estimate the three-dimensional temperature distribution of the EPS foam for the case of single-sloped hotwire cutting.

Enhancement of the accuracy of products and productivity are essential to survive in a global industrial competition. This trend requires tighter dimensional tolerance specifications. To actively cope with the rapid change of the workpiece material and cutter geometry, a general method that can predict and analyze the machined surface is needed. Surface generation model for the prediction of the topography of machined surfaces is developed based on cutting force model considering cutter deflection and runout. This paper presents the method that constructs the three-dimensional machined surface error following the movement of a cutter, irrespective of the variations of cutting conditions. In addition, the effects of the cutting forces and the kink shape on the machined surface are extensively investigated.

This paper presents the effects of the cutting speed and feed rate on the axial shape of flat end-milled down cut side walls. Experiments were performed using the cutting speed, tool diameter, and feed per tooth as variables, and the thrust force and axial shape were measured as the experimental results. The results of this study confirmed that a smaller feed per tooth, which is proportional to the value obtained by dividing the feed rate by the cutting speed, results in a higher axial shape accuracy. In addition, the axial shape can be simplified to a form in which two straight lines having different slopes meet at a singular point. Therefore, it was concluded that the shape accuracy could easily be estimated during the operation and improved by adjusting the feed per tooth.

KS and ISO have proposed several evaluation methods of conventional machine tools. Even though the accuracy of the tools can be evaluated with these methods, there are still no proper evaluation methods of high speed machining. Because it is hard to evaluate characteristics of high speed machining such as decrease of cutting temperature, cutting force, and reduced machining time. Therefore, new evaluation method for high speed machine should be developed. In this paper, several shapes of model have been proposed to evaluate cutting accuracy of high speed machine.

Hemisphere shapes were machined for different tool paths and machining conditions with ball endmill cutters. It was also found out how feedrate affect the precision of the machining and also tried to study the most suitable feedrate in specific cutting condition. Tool deflection, cutting forces and shape accuracy were measured according to the inclination position of the sculptured surface. As the decreasing of inclination position angle, the tool deflection was increased due to the decreased cutting speed when the cutting edge is approaching toward the center. Tool deflection when upward cutting IS obtained less than that of downward cutting and down-milling in upward cutting showed the least tool deflection for the sculptured surface. For down-milling, the cutting resistance of the side wall direction is larger than that of feed direction. It was found that the tool deflection is getting better as tool path is going to far from the center for convex surface.

Any relative deformation between the cutting tool and the workpiece at machining point results directly in geometric and dimensional errors. The sources of relative deformations between the cutting tool and the workpiece at the contact point may be due to vibration, thermal deformation and cutting forces. In this paper, geometric error prediction of workpiece in turning has been investigated. To reach this goal, turning experiments are carried out according to selected cutting conditions. The variable cutting conditions are cutting speed, depth of cut and feed rate. The results will be useful as a guidance to select cutting conditions to improve the geometrical accuracy.

The technique of high speed machining is widely studied in machining fields, because the high efficiency and accuracy in machining can be obtained in high speed machining. Unfortunately the development of tool for high speed machining in not close behind that of machine tool. In this study, several types flat endmill is prepared for obtaining data according to tool shape. Especially, we concentrated in helix angle, number of cutting edge, rake angle and relief angle. Machinability is measured by cutting force, tool life, tool wear, chip shape and surface roughness according to cutting length. 3-axis cutting forces are acquired from the invented tool dynamometer for high speed machining. Particularly, we found out that the axial cutting force waveform has a good relation with tool wear features. By above results, it is suggested the endmill tool with $45^{\circ}$ helix angle, 6 cutting edge, $-15^{\circ}$ rake angle and $12^{\circ}$ relief angle be suitable for high speed machining
