The machining process of ceramics can be characterized by cracking and brittle fracture. In the machining of ceramics, edge chipping and crack propagation are the principal reasons to cause surface integrity deterioration. Such phenomenon can cause not only poor dimensional and geometric accuracy, but also possible failure of the ceramic parts. Thus, traditional ceramics are very difficult-to-cut materials. To overcome such problems, in this paper, h-BN powder, which gives good cutting property, is added for the fabrication of machinable ceramics by volume of 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30%. The objectives of this paper is to evaluate the fracture phenomenon of the tungsten carbide tool and the variation of surface integrity of the manufactured machinable ceramics under various cutting conditions during end mill machining With CNC machining center.

기계가공(Machining)중에서 가장 기본적인 것이 선삭(Turning)작업이며, 이 가공은 선반(Lathe)에 의해서 행하여지고 있는 것은 다 아는 사실이다. 공작기계의 발달과 금속 절삭 원리(Principles of metal cutting)는 선반을 중심으로 약 일세기동안 꾸준히 발전해 오고 있으며, 수없이 쏟아져 나온 연구논문들의 대부분이 선반에 의한 가공과 그 공작기계에 의해서 이루어졌으며 앞으로도 계속 보통선반, CNC선반의 토대 위에서 이루어지리라고 보고 있다. 공작기계 중에서 CNC 선반의 발달 과정을 요약해보면 1960년대의 대량 생산시대에는 Programmable control 방식의 자동 터렛트(Turret) 선반이 개발되어 생산 공정이 비교적 간단한 양산 가공기로서 환영을 받게 되었다. 1970년대에 들어서면서 다품종소량생산이 중요시되었고, 그때 NC 선반시대가 시작되었다고 볼 수 있다. 현 싯점에서 볼 때 이것은 중품종중량생산 이라고 말할 수 있으며, Turret 선반의 NC화 즉, Multi-tool에 의한 선반의 복합가공이 가능해졌지만 Tooling에 문제가 발생하였다. 1980년에 들어서 각종 MC 들이 광범위하게 발달, 보급되는 경향에 따라서 NC 선반도 고능률화의 일환으로 고속화와 더불어 회전공구인 End mill. Drill. Tap 등의 복합가공이 가능한 복합선반이 차례로 개발되었고 선삭공구와 회전공구등의 자동공구교환(Automatic Tool. Changing. ATC)이 가능해지고 Y축 보정(Co-mpensation)기구를 부착한 대형 Turning center가 개발되어 보급되게 되었다.

The cutting performance of a developed small-angle spindle tool was investigated with Al6061 using a TiAlN coated high-speed steel end mill. Up-cut and down-cut processes in a milling machine were carried out at the range of 1000-4000 rpm for spindle speed and 50-300 mm/min for feed rate. As a result, the highest cutting force in the Fx direction was obtained from the up-cut process when the spindle speed was 1000 rpm and the feed rate was 100 mm/min. In the Fy direction, the highest cutting force appeared in the up-cut process at a feed rate of 250 mm/min at the same spindle speed. Conversely, the lowest cutting force came out in the up-cut process at a spindle speed of 4000 rpm and a feed rate of 50 mm/min. As for surface finish, the finest surface roughness was obtained as Ra 0.7642 um at a spindle speed of 4000 rpm and a feed rate of 50 mm/min. Consequently, given the cutting performance of the developed small-angle spindle tool, we conclude that its use in industrial practice is feasible.

The ion implantation technology changes the chemical state of the surface of a material by implanting ions on the surface. It improves the wear resistance, friction characteristics, etc. Plasma ion implantation can effectively reinforce a surface by implanting a sufficient amount of plasma nitrogen ions and using the injection depth instead of an ion beam. As plasma ion implantation is a three-dimensional process, it can be applied even when the surface area is large and the surface shape is complicated. Furthermore, it is less expensive than competing PVD and CVD technologies. and the material is The accommodation range for the shape and size of the plasma is extremely large. In this study, we improved wear resistance by implanting plasma nitrogen ions into a carbide end mill tool, which is frequently used in high-speed machining

In order to suggest the proper cutting conditons of the CNC milling machining for the free-form surface, some experments were carried out. In the experiments, the influence of cutting conditions on a inclined spherical surface were examined by geometrical analysis. In this study, the roundness and cutting force were measured to know the effect of several cutting conditions on the machined surface and the cutting characteristics were carefully investigated. The results obtained in this study are aw follows. 1) If the tool ha s enough rigidity, we can get better dimensional accuracy in up-ward cutting than down- ward cutting. 2) A great roundness error is appeared on the surface declined under 30 degress to the horizontal plane in circular machining by a bal end mill. 3) If the thrust force is increased, the stability of tool is decreased. And the phenomenon is apperared in great in down-ward cutting than up-ward cutting.

This paper describes a design process of end-milling cutters: solid model of the designed cutter is constructed along with computation of cutter geometry, and the wheel geometry as well as wheel positioning data fur fabricating end-mills with required cutter geometry is calculated. In the process, the main idea is to use the cutting simulation method by which the machined shape of an end-milling cutter is obtained via Boolean operation between a given grinding wheel and a cylindrical workpiece (raw stock). Major design parameters of a cutter such as rake angle, inner radius can be verified by interrogating the section profile of its solid model. We studied relations between various dimensional parameters and proposed an iterative approach to obtain the required geometry of a grinding wheel and the CL data fer machining an end-milling cutter satisfying the design parameters. This research has been implemented on a commercial CAD system by use of the API function programming, and is currently used by a tool maker in Korea. It can eliminate producing a physical prototype during the design stage, and it can be used fur virtual cutting test and analysis as well.

Mechanical milling, in association with electrical discharge machining (EDM) for hybrid machining, is presented in this paper. An end mill cutting tool, an electrode of the EDM, was used for the system. That means that some parts were cut by the mechanical cutting process and others by the EDM. The possibility of combining both processes was simulated with the cutting simulation software. In addition, the machining reality was verified by measuring the electrical signal from the EDM power supply, which was measured in time and frequency domains. From this initial research, the hybrid machining system proposed in this paper appears to be well suited for difficult to cut material processing.

Finish machining of a curved surface is often carried out by an NC system with curve interpolation in the field. This NURBS interpolation adopts a feedrate optimizing strategy based on both the geometrical information and dynamic properties. In case of a finish cut using a ball-end mill, the curve interpolator needs to take the machining process into account for more improved surface, while reducing the polishing time. In this study, the effect of low machinability at the bottom of a tool on surface roughness is also considered. A particular curve interpolation algorithm is proposed fur generating feedrate commands which are able to control the roughness of a curved surface. The simulation of the machined surface by the proposed algorithm was carried out, and experimental results are presented.

In modem manufacturing industries such as the airplane and automobile, aluminum alloys which are remarkable in durability have been utilized effectively. High-speed machining technology for surface roughness quality of workpiece has been applied in these fields. Higher cutting speed and feedrates lead to a reduction of machining time and increase of surface quality. Furthermore, the reduction of time required for polishing or lapping of machined surfaces improves the production rate. Traditional milling process for high speed cutting can be machined with end mill tool. However, such processes are generally cost-expensive and have low material removal rate. Thus, in this paper, face milling cutter which gives high MRR has developed face milling cutter body for the high speed machining of light alloy to overcome the problems. Also vibration experiment to detect natural frequency in free state and frequency characteristics during machining are performed to escape resonance.
