Stainless steel has some excellent properties as the material for the mechanical component. Purpose of this study is carried out to obtain mirror surface on the surperfinishing of stainless steel with high efficiency. To achieve this, we have conducted a series of polishing experiment for stainless steel using abrasive film from the perspective of oscillation speed, the rotational speed of workpiece, contact roller hardness, contact pressure and feed rate. Abrasive film used this study is a micro-finishing film and a lapping film. Furthermore, the polishing characteristics and efficiency of stainless steel is discussed through measuring optimal polishing time and surface roughness. From the obtained results, it was confirmed that efficient superfinishing conditions and polishing characteristic of Stainless steel can be determined.

Recently, many studies are being conducted to realize high quality polishing technology, but because of high dependence on field experience and insufficient research for ultra-precision polishing technology, it is difficult to establish standardization of polishing conditions. The purpose of this study is to determine high-efficiency superfinishing conditions which are applicable in the field of machining. To achieve this, we have a developed a superfinishing device and conducted a series of polishing experiments for mechanical materials such as SM45C, Brass, Al7075, and Ti, from the perspective of oscillation speed, the rotational speed of the workpiece, contact roller hardness, contact pressure, and feed rate. From the experimental results, it was confirmed that the polishable superfinishing conditions range and efficient feed rate of polishing film can be determined.

In the process of die manufacturing, according to increasing demand of die and molds, the efficient machining of dies and molds has been increased. However, while the cutting process has been automated by the progress of CNC(computer numerical control) and CAD/CAM, the polishing process still depends on the experienced knowledge of an expert. Also, even when workers are skilled in polishing dies. it takes much time to obtain the required roughness and smoothness on the surface of a die. Moreover, many workers gradually avoid doing polishing work because of the poor working conditions caused by dust and noise. Therefore, to improve productivity and to solve the potential shortage of skilled workers, a user-friendly automatic polishing system was developed in this research. The developed polishing system with five degrees of freedom is able to keep the polishing tool normal to the die surface during operation and is able to maintain a pressure constantly by the developed pneumatic system. Also, to evaluate polishing performance of the developend system and find the polishing conditions, the various polishing experiments were carried out.

The Engineering ceramics have some excellent properties as materials for modern mechanical and electrical components. It is, however, not easy to polish them efficiently because they are strong and hard. This study is carried out to obtain a mirror surface on engineering ceramics by surperfinishing with high efficiency. To achieve this, we conducted a series of polishing experiments using representative engineering ceramics, such as $Al_2O_3$, SiC, $Si_3N_4$ and $ZrO_2$, using diamond abrasive film from the perspective of oscillations peed, the rotational speed of the workpiece, contact roller hardness, contact pressure and feed rate. Furthermore, the polishing efficiency and characteristics for engineering ceramics are discussed on the basis of optimal polishing time and surface roughness. Our results confirmed that efficient superfinishing conditions and polishing characteristics of engineering ceramics can be determined.

The use of small hemispherical high-speed precision bearing has increased drastically these days in the field of computer disk driver, highteech devices as well as communication and electronic device drivers. It was suggested that the new polishing process adopting the diamond grinding wheel and polishing tool instead of multi stage lapping processes, which enables the mass production of the bearing by reduction of polishing time. Polishing mechanism was analysed and the results were applied to the design and manufacturing of the polishing system. Experiments for selection of optimal polishing conditions were carried out using the polishing system.

Cutting process has been automated by progress of CNC and CAD/CAM, but polishing process has been depended on only experiential knowledge of expert. To automate the polishing pricess polishing robot with 2 degrees of freedom which is attached to a machining center with 3 degrees of freedom has been developed. this automatic polishing robot is able to keep the polishing tool normal on the curved surface of die to improve a performance of polishing. Polishing task for a curved surface die demands repetitive operation and high precision, but conventional control algorithm can not cope with the problem of disturbance such as a change of load. In this research, we develop robust controller using real time sliding mode algorithm. To obtain gain parameters of sliding model control input, the signal compression method is used to identify polishing robot system. To obtain an effect of 5 degrees of freedom motion, 5 axes NC data for polishing are divided into data of two types for 3 axis machining center and 2 axis polishing are divided into data of two types for 3 axis machining center and 2 axis polishing robot. To find an efficient polishing condition to obtain high quality, various experiments are carried out.

Superfinishing is essential for mirror surfaces, because among mechanical components cylindrical workpieces such as spindles must maintain precision and reliability with respect to functional characteristics. However, research on standardization of polishing film application combination to obtain mirror surfaces is insufficient. Consequently, this has been a factor in rising costs of mechanical components. Therefore, in this study, experiments have been conducted to determine efficient polishing film application combination for mirror surfaces ranging from ductile materials such as SM45C, brass, aluminium 7075, and titanium to brittle materials such as $Al_20_3$, SiC, $Si_3N_4$, and $ZrO_2$. From the experimental results, efficient polishing film application combination for metallic materials and ceramic materials is confirmed.

This study has focused on transparency recovering of the polycarbonate by polishing its surface for recycling. The polycarbonate has many properties such as excellent mechanical strength, electrical insulating, superior heat resistance to other plastic material and especially good transparency. It has been used as barrier for the traffic noise at the roadside and the greenhouse for the palm house. But the polycarbonate has changed slightly as time goes by 10 years because of exposure to the strong sunlight and oxidization in the atmosphere, as result has lost its transparency. Magnetic assisted polishing has been utilized as an effective polishing method to recover the transparency of polycarbonate. The polycarbonate which has been used for 10 years was adopted as the sample. The first surface roughness of the sample was 1$1.23{\mu}mRa$, $7.5{\mu}mRz(DIN)$ respectively. In the experimental results, it showed that the surface roughness of the polished sample improved $0.013{\mu}mRa$, $0.08{\mu}mRz(DIN)$ from the first surface roughness respectively. The surface roughness get almost back again by magnetic assisted polishing. These results also showed that the magnetic assisted polishing was efficient machining method to reuse the polycarbonate material.
