A worm screw is widely used in a geared motor unit for motion conversion from rotation to linear. For mass production of a high quality worm, the current rolling process is substituted with the milling process. Since the milling process enables the integration of all operations of worm manufacturing on a CNC(Computer Numerical Control) lathe, productivity can be remarkably improved. In this study, the tooling system for side milling on a CNC lathe to improve machinability is developed. However, the cutting tool-workpiece interference is important factors to be considered for producing high quality worms. For adaptability of various worms machining, the tool-workpiece interference simulation system based on a tool-tip trajectory model is developed. The developed simulation system is verified through several kinds of worms and experimental results.

When we cut a key way on the axial or on the boss, we generally use a slotter or a broach. To do the key seating, turing operations have to be preceded and then the key on the axial or on the boss can be seated. For this reason, the production process of key way cutting becomes complicated. If is necessary to simplify the process and we have developed a small practical machine for key way cutting. The machine is located on the carriage of the lathe. Using this small and practical key way machine, after operation the turing, you do not have to remove the workpiece from the chuck of the lathe to carry on the key seating process. The developed machine will save cutting time and the cost.

To make high precision cutting of long materials or a piston for the engines, it must be necessary to keep the stability of spindle and tail stock in CNC lathe. If a object is clamped at the ends, the thermal expansion and cutting generated in cutting process appear as the deflection of in cuttings objects. Especially, of a piston ring, piston ovality and piston profile, the influences are very serious. In order to solve the problems most of piston cutting are worked in simply support. However, the problems exist, yet.

For domestic aircraft industry, not mass production of components is limited, small production scale of the order is made by part because many kinds of hundreds of thousands of kinds of small quantity batch production system are taking. But the high reliability and stability are required during the processing because they require high precision parts are required. It is found that when C-axis rotation speed was increased, the diameter of the cutting tool decreased with increasing surface roughness, while the turn-mail feed rate was increased with increasing the surface roughness.

This study analyzes machining characteristics and presents optimal cutting conditions by measuring the surface roughness, dimensional accuracy, and dimension straightness based on the feed rate after processing the inner diameter hall of SCM415 steel using an automatic CNC(Computerized Numerical Control) lathe. The testing material was cut using an 11.8 mm-diameter Chamdrill after mounting the 32 mm-diameter round bar on an automatic CNC lathe. The cut depth was set at 3 mm, and the cutting speed was fixed at 1500 rpm. The surface roughness, dimensional accuracy, and dimension straightness of 15 testings were measured by changing the feed rate to 0.05, 0.1, and 0.15 mm/rev, respectively. It was difficult to process more than 15 tests during the maching due to noise or break. Additionally, the optimum cutting of SCM415 steel showed excellent surface roughness in the 10^th and 11^th of testing at cutting speed and feed speed of 1500 rpm and 0.05 mm/rev, respectively. The dimensional accuracy was measured in three dimensions after drilling, which showed good results with an average range of 0.0138-0.0208 mm. Moreover, the lower the feed speed, the higher the accuracy. Additionally, the measurement results of the dimensional straightness showed that the straightness is the straightness was the best at the 1^th and 2^th cutting regardless of the feed speed.

Vibrations in machine tools make many problems in precision, production efficiency, and machine performance. The relative vibration between a workpiece and a tool is very complicated due to many sources. In this study, the dynamic characteristics of a newly developed CNC lathe were analyzed and its chatter characteristics were predicted by a chatter analysis method using finite element analysis and 3 dimensional cutting dynamics. The simulated results showed very complex characteristics of chatter vibration and the borderline of limiting depth of cut was used as the stability limit. To check the validity of this method, cutting tests were done in the CNC lathe using a boring bar as a tool because boring process is very weak due to long overhang . The experimental results showed that the simplified borderline was to be considered as limiting depth of cut at which the chatter vibration starts and the stability limits depended on various cutting parameters such as cutting speed, feed and nose radius of tool.

The aim of the present work is to propose a model for Computer Aided programming of numerical Control lathe. This model is based on the concept by features. It has been developed in an Artificial Intelligence environment, that offers a rapidity as well as a precision for NC code elaboration. In this study a pre-processor has been elaborated to study the geometry of turning workpiece. This pre-processor is a hybrid system which combine a module of design by features and a module of features recognition for a piece provided from an other CAD software. Then, we have conceived a processor that is the heart of the CAD/CAM software. The main functions are to study the fixture of the workpiece, to choose automatically manufacturing cycles, to choose automatically cutting tools (the most relevant), to simulate tool path of manufacturing and calculate cutting conditions, end to elaborate a typical manufacturing process. Finally, the system generates the NC program from information delivered by the processor.

The dynamic characteristics of turning processes are complex, non-linear and time-varying. Consequently, the conventional techniques based on crisp mathematical model may not guarantee cutting force regulation. This paper presents a fuzzy controller which can regulate cutting force in turning process under varying cutting conditions. The fuzzy control rules are extablished from operator experience and expert knowledge about the process dynamics. Regulation which increases productivity and tool life is achieved by adjusting feedrate according to the variation of cutting conditions. The performance of the proposed controller is evaluated by cutting experiments in the converted conventional lathe. The results of experiments show that the proposed fuzzy controller has a good cutting force regulation capability in spite of the variation of cutting conditions.

This paper investigates the relationship between cutting conditions and Acoustic Emission(AE) signals; $AE_{avg}$, $AE_{rms}$, $AE_{mode}$$AE_{avg}$ and $AE_{rms}$ are increased as the increasing of cutting velocity and depth of cut respectively. The new parameters, derived from $AE_{avg}$ and $AE_{rms}$, which may be used for the in-process detection of tool wear is discussed. It is also known that $AE_{mode}$
