In general, lithography techniques are applied when machining single-crystal silicon in nanoscale applications; however, these techniques involve low degrees of freedom for the vertical shapes. By applying mechanical techniques to machine silicon, nanopatterns having various types of vertical shapes can be manufactured. In this study, we determined the ductile-brittle machining transition point and analyzed the- variation of the specific cutting resistance within the ductile machining region in nanoscale applications. When brittle fracture occurred during the nanoscale cutting, the depth of cut and cutting force increased and decreased rapidly, respectively. The first point of rapid increase in the depth of cut was defined as the ductile-brittle machining point. Subsequently, the shape of the machining tool was observed using a scanning electron microscope to calibrate the machining area, considering the tip blunting. The specific cutting resistance decreased continuously and converged to a certain value during the nanoscale cutting. The decrease and convergence in the value can be attributed to the decrease in the ratio of the arc length to the area of the machining tool and silicon.

Glassy carbon is widely used for high temperature melting process such as quartz due to its thermal stability. For utilizing Classy Carbon to glass mold press(GMP) optical lens, brittleness of Glassy Carbon is main obstacle of ultraprecision machining. Thus authors investigated ductile machining of Glassy Carbon adopting turning and grinding process respectively. From the experiments, ultraprecision turning surfaces resulted brittle crack in all machining conditions and ultraprecision grinding surfaces showed semi-ductile mode in small undeformed chip thickness conditions.

Recently, atomic force microscope(AFM) with suitable tips is being used for nano fabrication/nanometric machining purposes. In this paper, acoustic emission(AE) was introduced to monitor the nanometric machining of brittle materials(silicon) using AFM. In the experiments, AE responses were sampled, as the tip load was linearly increased(ramped load), to investigate the machining characteristics during a continuous movement. By analyzing the experimental results, it can be concluded that measured AE energy is sensitive to changes in the mechanism of material removal including the ductile-brittle transition during the nanometric machining. The critical depth of cut value for the transition is evaluated and discussed.

Critical erosion kinetic energy models for radial/median cracks and lateral cracks in a workpiece are established in this study. We used experimental results to demonstrate that the fracture erosion resistance and erosion machining number could be used to evaluate the brittle fracture resistance and machinability of a workpiece. Erosion kinetic energy models were developed to predict brittle fracture and ductile shear, and a critical erosion kinetic energy model was developed to predict the transition from brittle fracture to ductile shear. These models were verified experimentally.

There is an immense need to obtain nanometric surface finish on optical glass owing to the advantage of improved performance of the components. But owing to brittleness and hardness, optical glass is one of the materials that is difficult to ultra-precision turning. According to the hypothesis of ductile mode machining, regardless of their hardness and brittleness, will undergo a transition from brittle to ductile machining region below a critical undeformed chip thickness. Below this threshold, it is suggested that the energy required for plastic formation. Thus, plastic deformation is the predominant mechanism of material removal in machining these materials in this mode. An experimental study is conducted diamond cutting for machining BK7 glass. The investigation presents the feasibility of achieving nanometric surface and the understanding the mechanism of cutting glass, proving the cutting edge radius effect.

Heavy flint optical glass(SF57HHT) is new material that has extremely high transmittance. Due to brittleness and high hardness, optical glass is one of the most difficult to materials for ultra-precision turning. According to the hypothesis of ductile machining, all materials, regardless of their hardness and brittleness, will undergo transition from brittle to ductile machining region below critical undefromed chip thickness. In this study, cutting test was carried out to evaluate cutting performance of heavy flint glass using ultra-precision machine with single crystal diamond bite. The machined workpiece surface topography, tool wear and surface roughness were examined using AFM and SEM. The experimental results indicate that the machining mode become the brittle mode to ductile mode, when the maximum undeformed chip thinkness is large than critical value. Tool wear mainly occurs on the flank face and its wear mechanism is dominated by abrasion. This study demonstrates the feasibility of SF57HHT by diamond turning.

Recently, a wide range of industrial production area has a competitive advantage through cost reduction. Moreover with the development of industrial technology, base material and cutting tool help the machining technology. But most of the machining enterprises have not hold the R&D facilities and human resources. This mainly disturbs the industrial development and th increase of production efficiency. Especially in the interrupted machining process, it showed different behavior with continuous machining process. So it needs to research and develop the tool life and tool wear mechanism analysis.

In this paper, three different types of commercially tools-P20, NC123K and ceramic-have been used to working austempered ductile iron(ADI). In the austempered condition the materials are hard, strong and difficult to machine. Thus, we selected a optimum tool material among three different types of used tools in machining of austempered ductile iron. It was used acoustic emission(AE) to know cutting characteristic for selected tool and flank wear land of the ceramic too. The obtained results are as follows; (1) The ceramic tool among three different types of tools is the best in machining austempered ductile iron. (2) In case of ceramic tool, the amplitude level of AE signal(AErms) is mainly affected bycutting speed in cutting speed in cutting condition and it is proportioned to cutting speed. (3) There have the relationship of direct proportion between the amplitude level of AE signal and flank wear land of the tool. (4) If it find the value of AErms at each cutting speed, the in-process detection to ceramic tool's wear is possible

Thus, we selected a optimum tool material among three different types of used tools in machining of austempered ductile iron.

The obtained results are as follows ; (1) The ceramic tool among three different types of tools is the best in machining austempered ductile iron.

(3)There have been the relationship of direct proportion between the amplitude level of AE signal and flank wear land of the tool. (4) It was observed that the value of AErms was only affected by cutting speed. Therefore it is possible to in-process detec- tion of ceraic tool's wear in case the initial value of AErms at each cutting speed decided.

This paper deals with the precision cutting characteristics of mono-crystal diamonds poly-crystal diamonds and tungsten carbide tool on ductile material. The cutting tests were carried out under various uncut chip areas and 20${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ depth of engagement. The machinability in precision machining was discussed from the viewpoints of the normal cutting forces and the surface roughness of the workpiece. As the feed rate decreases the normal force difference for cutting edge radii appears to large. In various cutting edge radii the surface roughness difference when cut the copper which is ductile material than the aluminium alloy is large. As the same cutting condition the hardness value on cut surface with the diamond tool appears to be smaller than that of the tungsten carbide tool.
