Recently, environmental pollution has become a serious problem in industry, and many researches have been done in order to preserve the environment. The coolant, which promotes lubrication, cooling and penetration, contains chlorine, sulfur and phosphorus to improve the machining efficiency. These additives, which move around into the air during machining, pollute working. Therefore, many researches on how to reduce the amount of coolant during machining have been carried out. However, to reduce even small amount of coolant causes high temperature of a workpiece and it brings thermal defects. In this study, the experiments of wet & dry grinding using cooling methods (using coolant only, mist and compressed cold air only) are performed to solve the problem of environmental contamination and to get a better surface integrity of a workpiece by comparing surface roughness, roundness and residual stress.

Nowadays, a strategy of the self-optimizing machining process is an imperative approach to improve the product quality and increase productivity of manufacturing systems. This paper presents a concept of self-optimizing forming system that allows the forming system automatically to adjust the forming parameters online for guarantee the product quality and avoiding the machine stop. An intelligent monitoring system that has the functions of observation, evaluation and diagnostic is developed to evaluate the pully quality during forming process. Any abnormal variation of forming machining parameters could be detected and adjusted by an intelligent control system aiming to maintain the machining stability and the desired product quality. This approach is being practiced on the pully forming machine for evaluating the efficiency of the proposed strategy.

Single point diamond turning technique for optical crystals is reported in this paper. The main factors influencing the machined surface quality are discovered and regularities of machining process are drawn. Optical crystals have found more and more important applications in the field of modern optics. Optical crystals are mostly brittle materials of poor machinability. The traditional machining method is polishing which has many shortcomings such as low production efficiency, poor ability to be automatically controlled and edge effect of the workpiece. The purpose of our research is to find the optimum machining conditions for ductile cutting of optical crystals and apply the SPDT technique to the manufacturing of ultra precision optical components of brittle material.

Octree-based algorithm is developed for machining simulation. Most of commercial machining simulators are based on Z map model, which have several limitations to get a high precision in 5 axis machining simulation. Octree representation is three dimensional decomposition method. So it is expected that these limitations be overcome by using octree based algorithm. By using the octree model, storage requirement is reduced. And also recursive subdivision was processed in the boundaries, which reduces useless computation. The supersampling method is the most common form of the anti-aliasing and usually used with polygon mesh rendering in computer graphics. Supersampling technique is applied for advancing its efficiency of the octree algorithm.

The tilting index table has attached to CNC machining center with 3axes, it can be improvement of its performance and its machining efficiency. The tilting index table is a key unit in order to manufacture some non-rotational and 3-dimensional parts, using the conventional machining center. In this study, structural analysis is carried out by FEM simulation using the commercial software ANSYS Workbench 11 to develop tilting index table using direct drive motor. The shape of the tilting index table obtained from the optimization was analyzed and compared with the initial model. Also, the initial model was modified based on the optimization model and the result was verified to have the acceptable improvement.

In the present investigation, the improvement of processing efficiency in the high speed machining of GC250 is explored. This study is to evaluate the tool performance in difficult-to-material using the new developed tool. Tool performance evaluation are conducted by tool wear, surface roughness, chattering in machined surface. The tool wear of A type was smaller than B type. In type B tool the chatter mark was observed in machined surface. The good surface roughness was obtained in type A tool. Consequently, the tool performance of A type is better than B type.

Recently, the use of aluminum components in the reduction of the vehicle weight to improve fuel efficiency and reduce carbon dioxide emissions has increased. In the aluminum machining cutting process, hole-making is an important process that accounts for 30% of the machining process. Although many studies have been conducted using the continuously advancing hole processing technology, studies on the machinability of the tool depending on the type of chuck on the workpiece are still lacking. In this study, the machining performance of cemented carbide burnishing drills was compared and analyzed according to chuck type. The burnishing drill was used to create a hole in the AL6061 workpiece, and the surface roughness and dimensional accuracy of the hole were examined according to the type of chuck while monitoring the spindle load.

In this paper, we propose an ultrasonic magnetic abrasive polishing (US-MAP) technique to effectively machine a high-strength material, and we prove the efficiency of hybrid finishing. We use Taguchi's experimental method to determine the influence of each parameter. Based on the results, US-MAP exhibited a higher polishing efficiency than traditional MAP, and a suitable frequency for hybrid finishing was 28 kHz. When investigating the effect of the parameters on the surface roughness, the ultrasonic amplitude had the greatest effect. However, when machining with $55-{\mu}m$ amplitude, the machining efficiency decreased as the magnetic flux density varied.

Nowadays, automobile manufacturers are faced with increasing global competition which is required low cost as well as high quality. To reduce shipping and handling cost and delivery time, lots of automobile manufactures tried to build their new factory in the neighborhood of market. Simultaneously, many factories are under construction in developing countries to make efficient use of low-wage workers. However, because systems are installed in developing countries as the same type of domestic facilities, systems have lots of problems such as high installation cost and inefficient use of manpower. To find core problems and generate optimal solution of these problems, thinking process of TOC(Theory Of Constrains) is used. In case of transmission gear machining system, semi-auto system is proposed as the best solution to increase manpower efficiency and system utilization. Semi-auto system consists of automatic machining process and manual transporting process. The system layout is generated based on semi-auto process concept. And, 3D simulation method using QUEST is used to verify production volume of generated system.

Brittle materials, especially single-crystal silicon wafer, are widely used for sensors, IC industry, and MEMS applications. e general machining process of crack easy materials is by chemical agents, but it is hazardous and time consuming. Also, it is difficult to get high aspect ratio micro structure. As an alternative tool, an AJM(Abrasive jet machining) is promising method in terms of high aspect ratio and production cost. In this study, to get more precise detail compared to general AJM, photo polymer mask, SU-8, used in photolithography was applied in AJM. Process parameters such as abrasive diameter, air pressure, nozzle diameter, flow rate of abrasive in AJM and a variety of conditions in spin coating were decided. Finally, micro channel and mixer was fabricated to see the efficiency of the AJM with photo polymer mask.
