This expermintal study is intended to investigate he development of flank wear in turning os SUS304 which is used in industrial applications and is acknowledged as a machining difficult material. In cutting process, change of velocity, change of feed, and change of depth of cut were investigated about the effect of flank wear, and slenderness ratio is also investigated. The variations of unit cutting force with the change of rake angle and the change of uncut chip area are observed. The friction angles are calculated for the change friction force and observed. The friction angles are calculated for the change friction force and normal forcd on the different rake angles. From this experimental study, the following results can be said. 1. Under the high cutting speed condition, the flaank wear is affected by the feed and depth of cut, but the influence of feed and depth of cut to the flank wear is reduced when the velocity is low. 2. The smaller slenderness ratio is, the shorter the tool life results in high cutting speed, and the lower cutting speed is, the lower the effect of slenderness ratio to the flank wear is. 3. Using the characteristics of force-RMS, the flank wear of a tool can be detected. There are almost no differences between the RMS characteristics of cutting force and feed force.

By the reason of increased demand of high productivity, the researches on manufacturing process and equipments for reducing cycle time have been made in many directions of a machine tool industries. Especially high productivity is very important to machining center with high-speed spindle. This paper proposed method of reducing T-T(tool to tool) time which results in shorter unclamping time. T-T time varies as factors such as a hydraulic system, a drawbar mass, a flow meter, a disc spring, piston and pipe diameters. In this paper We could find design factors has much influence on decreasing the unclamping time using DOE(Design of Experiment) and optimized the level of the factors using AMESim $4.0^{(R)}$ and visualNastran $4D^{(R)}$ Finally, we have verified improved result of the optimized factors with initial design.

Ultraviolet laser micromachining has increasingly been applied to the electronics industry where precision machining of high-density, multi-layer, and multi material components is in a strong demand. Due to the ever-decreasing size of electronic products such as cellular phones, MP3 players, digital cameras, etc., flexible printed circuit board (FPCB), multi-layered with polymers and metals, tends to be thicker. In present, multi-layered FPCBs are being mechanically cut with a punching die. The mechanical cutting of FPCBs causes such defects as burr on layer edges, cracks in terminals, delamination and chipping of layers. In this study, the laser cutting mechanism of FPCB was examined to solve problems related to surface debris and short-circuiting that can be caused by the photo-thermal effect. The laser cutting of PI and FCCL, which are base materials of FPCB, was carried out using a pico-second laser(355nm, 532nm) and nano-second UV laser with adjusting variables such as the average/peak power, scanning speed, cycles, gas and materials. Points which special attention should be paid are that a fast scanning speed, low repetition rate and high peak power are required for precision machining.

With increasing demands for high-speed machining and lightweight design of machine tools, increasing likeliness of generation of machine tool spindle vibrations has become an important issue. Spindle vibration has a significant impact on the surface finish of the workpiece in ultra-precision machining. It is necessary to resolve the machine tool spindle vibration in various machining processes to improve machining accuracy. In this paper, a TiC-SKH51 metal-matrix composite was used to suppress the vibration of the machine tool spindle. To confirm the dynamic characteristic of the TiC-SKH51 composite, impact hammer tests were conducted. After verifying the reliability of a finite element analysis (FEA) by comparing the results of the impact hammer test with the modal analysis using FEA, the analysis of the machine tool spindle model was performed. The FEA results show that the TiC-SKH51 composite applied machine tool spindle can be utilized to suppress the vibration generation.

Micro trench structures are applied in gratings, security films, wave guides, and micro fluidics. These micro trench structures have commonly been fabricated by micro electro mechanical system (MEMS) process. However, if the micro trench structures are machined using a diamond tool on large area plate, the resulting process is the most effective manufacturing method for products with high quality surfaces and outstanding optical characteristics. A nonferrous metal has been used as a workpiece; recently, and hybrid materials, including polymer materials, have been applied to mold for display fields. Thus, the machining characteristics of polymer materials should be analyzed. In this study, machining characteristics were compared between nonferrous metals and polymer materials using single crystal diamond (SCD) tools; the use of such materials is increasing in machining applications. The experiment was conducted using a square type diamond tool and a shaper machine tool with cutting depths of 2, 4, 6 and 10 ${\mu}m$ and a cutting speed of 200 mm/s. The machined surfaces, chip, and cutting force were compared through the experiment.

Recently, the evolution in production techniques (e.g. high-speed milling), the complex shapes involved in modem production design, and the ever increasing pressure for higher productivity demand a drastic improvement of the dynamic behavior of the machine tool axes used in production machinery. And also machine tools of multi functional and minimized parts are increasingly required as demand of higher accurate in some fields such as electronic and optical components etc. The accuracy and the productivity of machined parts are natural to depend on the linear system of machine tools. The complex workpiece surfaces encountered in present-day products and generated by CAD systems are to be transformed into tool paths for machine tools. The more complex these tool paths and the higher the speed requirements, the higher the acceleration requirements are needed to the machine tool axes and the motion control system, and the more difficult it is to meet the requirements. The traditional indirect drive design for high speed machine tools, which consists of a rotary motor with a ball-screw transmission to the slide, is limited in speed, acceleration, and accuracy. The direct drive design of machine tool axes. which is based on linear motors and which recently appeared on the market. is a viable candidate to meet the ever increasing demands, because of these advantages such as no backlash, less friction, no mechanical limitations on acceleration and velocity and mechanical simplicity. Therefore performance tests were carried out to machine tool axes based on linear motor. Especially, dynamic characteristics were investigated through circular test.

As the demand for high speed and high precision increases in the field of machine tool, interest in stiffness and vibration of machine tool is increasing. However, it takes a lot of time to develop a detailed design of machine tool based on experience, and it is difficult to design appropriately. Recently, structural optimization using FEM are increasingly used in machine tool design. But, it is difficult to optimize in consideration of the vibration state of the structure since optimization through stress distribution of a structure is mainly used, In this paper, Static structural analysis, mode analysis, and harmonic analysis using FEM were conducted to optimize the head structure that has the most influence on machining in a 5-axis machine tool. It is proposed a topology optimization analysis method that considers both static stiffness and dynamic stiffness using objective function design.

In recent, rapid manufacturing (RM) technology is widely used to develop an injection mould with a high performance. The objective of this paper is to develop the injection mould with a high productivity using a hybrid RM technology combining Laser-aided Direct Metal Tooling process with a machining process. The geometry decomposition has been utilized to improve the speed of the manufacturing for the mould. Mould with conformal cooling channels has been designed to improve cooling characteristics. Several experiments have been carried out to evaluate characteristics of the mould manufactured from the hybrid RM technology. In addition, injection molding tests have been performed to examine the performance of the manufactured mould. The results of the injection molding tests have been shown that a cooling time and the injection time of the designed mould are reduced to one-fifth and one-second that of the mould with convention cooling channels.
