This study describes the geometric characteristics and the 5-axis machining method in order to make end mill cutter coming with insert tips. End mill geometry is consisted of flute part and insert tip part. Flute part modeled by using ruled surfaces with constant helix angle, and insert tip part modeled by rectangular planes containing tapped hole of specified direction in its center. In this study, the modeled insert tip part considered both of a radial rake angle and a axial rake angle, because they were important cutting conditions. In order to machining the virtual end mill defined from geometric characteristics, we programmed a special software to machining the end mill considered in this study. This software can generate NC-codes about following processes, end milling or ball end milling of flute part end milling of rectangular plane, centering of hole, drilling of hole, and tapping of hole. Ant sampled end mills were modeled and machined on 5-axis CNC machining center with two index tables. Since machined end mills were very agreeable to designed end mills, we saw that the method proposed in this study can be very useful for manufacturing of end mill body with insert tip.

Abrasive water-jet(AWJ) machining is a new cutting technology. The AWJ can cut various materials such as metal, glass and stone. However, the AWJ machining makes troubles including kerf, rounding and side taper. In this study, we investigated the correlation between parameters of abrasive water-jet machining and cutting characteristics. The machining parameters were the material thickness and the traverse speed. The experiment was conducted to cut the stainless steel(STS41) and the mild steel(SS41) specimens. The results of the experiment were presented as the relation between cutting conditions and troubles of a dimension error, a conner error, an uncut width and a kerf.

Micro-EDM is generally used far machining micro 3-D structure. For micro-EDM, first of all, micro-electrode fabrication is needed and WEDG system is proposed for tool electrode fabrication method. When tool electrode is fabricated using WEDG system, its characteristics are under the control of many EDM parameters. Also relations between the parameters affect electrode fabrication. In this study, experiments are carried out to analyze effects of EDM parameters on micro-electrode fabrication. Experimental method and analysis are used to experimental design method. Factors used in experiments are composed of applied voltage, capacitance, wire feed rate, spindle rotating speed, machining time. As a result of experiments, wire feed rate, machining time and capacitance is proportional to gap distance(material removal), the other parameters(applied voltage, spindle rotating speed) and relations between the parameters have little influence on machining.

In this paper, micro electrical discharge milling using deionized water as dielectric fluid was investigated. In EDM, dielectric fluid is an important factor which affects machining characteristics. When deionized water was used as dielectric fluid, machining characteristics were investigated according to voltage, capacitance, and resistivity of deionized water. Machining gap increased with increasing voltage and capacitance. As the resistivity of deionized water decreased, the machining gap increased. The wear of a tool electrode and machining time can be reduced by using deionized water instead of EDM oil. Surface roughness was also improved when deionized water was used.

Abrasive jet machining (AJM) has been traditionally used for removing rusts or paints. Nowadays, this is promising technology for micro bulk machining where brittle substrate materials are used. In order to get accurate details, masks such as metal, polymer or elastomer is inevitable. Among them, photo polymer which is sensitive to the light has been attractive for it's high accuracy using photolithography. In this research, SU-8 as a photo polymer is used since it is adequate for making thick mask. So, this paper describes how to make AJM masks using SU-8 with a photolithography process, and investigates the characteristics of SU-8 masks during AJM process. Also, an example of fabrication using AJM was shown.

As the technique of high-speed end-milling is widely adopted to in machining field. The investigation for microscopic precision of workpiece is necessary for machinability evolution. In this study, cutting force, cutting temperature and microhardness were investigated to evaluate damaged layer in conventional machining and high-speed machining. Damaged layer was measured using optical microscope. The thickness of damaged layer depends on cutting process parameters, specially feed per tooth and radial depth. It is obtained that the characteristics of damaged layer is high-speed machining better than conventional machining.

Machining technology has emerged to the point of performing atomic-scale fabrication. In tail paper atomic-scale machining characteristics are investigated by using Molecular Statics simulation method. The cutting model used in this work simulates machining with tools such as an AFM. It is shown that built-up edge formation and cutting forces depend on tool tip geometry. Also, the material flow during cutting is shown for various cutting conditions such as depth of cut, rake angle, and edge radius of tool.

This paper describes the machining characteristics of the sintered carbide and die steel by electric discharge drilling with various tubular electrodes. Electrical discharge machining(EDM) removes material from the workpiece by a series of electrical sparks that cause localized temperatures high enough to melt or vaporise the metal in the vicinity of the charge. In the experiment, four types of electrode which have different diameter are used with the application of continuous direct current and axial electrode feed. The controlled factors include the dimension of the electrode. In drilling by EDM, the dielectric flushed down the interior of the rotating tube electrode, in order to facilitate the removal of machining debris from the hole.

In this study, the chip breaking characteristics of S, PbS and BiS free machining steels have been assessed. PbS free machining steel shows the lowest value of chip thickness ($t_c$) under the same cutting conditions. SM10C steel has the largest value of the chip cross-section area ratio ($R_{CA}$). As the feed rate becomes larger the chip breaking cycle time ($T_B$) decreases and the chip breaking index ($C_B$) increases. The properly controlled-C type chip has been obtained with the value of $C_B$ between 0.05 and 0.2. Free machining steel, PbS produces the properly controlled-C type chip in a wider feed rate range than other steels.
