Touch panels are widely used in the modern display industry as the cover glass of smart mobile phones and tablet PCs. Glass cutting machines are commonly used to cut the panels into their proper sizes. Vibration of these glass cutting machines is assumed to be the main factor leading to the creation of burrs, notches, cracks, scratches and chips on the cut surfaces, eventually causing defects of the cover glass. In this study, the vibrations of a glass cutting machine used for the shearing of cover glass components were analyzed through an experiment and a computer simulation. The structural properties leading to vibration were also analyzed in an effort to determine design alterations which can suppress these vibrations. Moreover, each design alteration was applied to a computer simulation model to determine the effect of different alteration on suppressing vibration. The results show that simple design alterations can substantially suppress vibrations of glass cutting machines.

Recently FPD(Flat Panel Display) is used in various field to display enormous information. So cutting technique of flat panel display is needed for producing variety display merchandises. In present, cutting methods of flat panel glass includes breaking process. But this process occurs many glass particles. This glass particles are directly related badness of merchandise and falling productivity. In this paper, to cut front substrate glass of LCD and to get optimized cutting condition are tried fur eliminating breaking process with developed glass cutting machine using a Piezoelectric ceramics actuator. It is known that the vibration of Piezoelectric Ceramic have effect in crack proceeding through the analysis of fracture section.

In the use of glass fiber reinforced plastics(GFRP) it is often necessary to cut the components, but the cutting of GFRP is often made difficult by the delamination of the compositions and short tool life. Experimental investigation was conducted to evaluate the chip formation of the glass fiber reinforced plastics during orthogonal cutting. The chip formation process, cutting force, and thrust force were studied. The chip formation processes were studied through the use of quick-stop device. Chip-tool contact areas were obtained with the use of the quick-stop device, and observed using optical microscopy after polishing. Cutting force and thrust force were measured through the use of the tool dynamometer.

Glass fiber epoxy composite material is widely used in the structures of aircrafts, robots and other machines because of their high specific strength, high specific stiffness and high damping. In order for the composite materials to be used in the aircraft structures or machine elements, accurate surfaces for bearing mounting or joint must be provided, which require precise machining. In this paper, the machinability of the glass fiber epoxy composite material was experimentally investigated. The results can be summarized as follows : 1. The entrance of hole is very good manufacturing existing, but exit come to occur sever surface exfoliation. 2. The cutting force in drilling of the glass fiber epoxy composite material is decreased as the drilling speed increased. 3. If the glass fiber epoxy composite material is drilling by the standard twist drill, then the hole recommand cutting condition is spindle speed 400∼600rpm, feed 40∼50mm/min.

Ceramic core processing technology using 5-axis high-speed cutting machine is applied to make the glass molds for aspherical ophthalmic lenses. In the technology, optimum processing conditions for aspherical ceramic molds are based on minimal experimental data of surface roughness. Such surface roughness is influenced by fabricating tools, cutting speed, feed rate, and depth of cut, respectively. In this paper, we present that surface roughness and shape accuracy of aspheric ceramic mold obtained by optimum processing conditions are Pa $0.6184{\mu}m$ and Pt $5.0301{\mu}m$, respectively, and propose that these values are sufficiently possible to apply to making the glass molds for aspherical ophthalmic lenses.

Recent years, optical components'are widely used in optical communication industry for high speed and mass storage data processing. Micro grooving of planar lightwave circuit and glass, those are widely used in optical component, are realized by polycrystalline diamond tool with ultrasonic vibration. To know the characteristics of brittle materials cutting, ultrasonic vibration cutting tool and machining system are built for the experiment. Grooving on planar lightwave circuit and glass experiments are performed and their shape are measured by photograph with microscope. It reveals that better groove shape with low chipping of planar lightwave circuit and glass are obtained by micro grooving machining with ultrasonic vibration. These experiments are considered as a possibility to the micro grooving of optical communication components.

To obtain the surface roughness with nano order, we need a ultra-precision machine, cutting condition, and materials. In this paper, the cutting condition for getting nano order smooth surface of core have been examined experimentally by the ultra-precision machine and diamond wheels. The effects of the cutting velocity, the feed rate and depth of cut on the surface roughness were studied. And also, the surface roughness was measured by the Form Talysurf series PGI 840. The champion data of developed core was surface roughness Rmax 24.6nm, figure accuracy Rmax 68.9nm.

In the present study, $Si_3N_4-SiC$ ceramic composites that contained up to 20 wt% of dispersed SiC particles were fabricated via hot-pressing with an oxynitride glass. The microstructure, the mechanical properties, and the cutting performance of resulting ceramic composites were investigated. By fixing the composition as $Si_3N_4-20$ wt% SiC, the effect of sintering time on the microstructure, the mechanical properties, and the cutting performance were also investigated. For machining of gray cast i개n, the tool life increases with increasing the amount of SiC content in the composites; The tool life also increased with increasing the sintering time. The tool life of the home-made cutting tools was very close to that of commercial $Si_3N_4$ cutting tool. The superior cutting performance of $Si_3N_4-SiC$ ceramic cutting tools suggests the possibility to be a new ceramic tool material.

In the machining of glass fiber reinforced plastics(GFRP), turning has been often used. But the most of past studies have been interested in the effect of fiber orientation on tool wear. In this study, the effects of fiber contents and cutting speeds on tool wear, cutting force and surface roughness are investigated experimentally. By proper selection of cutting tool, the variables are cutting speed, fiber contents and cutting length with fixed feed rate and depth of cut. The fiber contents have major effects on coated tool wear which observed as abrasive wear type.
