In the CNC machining process, problems such as lowering of machine operation rate, setting errors, and machining precision occur due to the increase in setting time and preparation time. These machining errors cause delays in delivery and increase in cost due to an increase in the number of mounting and dismounting of the workpiece, an increase in measurement and reprocessing time, and an increase in the finishing time in the assembly process. Therefore, in this study, by automating the setting of the work piece using OMV (On Machine Verification), which is a meteorological measurement system, the preparation time for machining the work piece and the setting accuracy were improved, the rework rate was reduced, and the mold manufacturing process was shortened. Through the advancement, standardzation, and automation of the mold part manufacturing process, we have improved productivity by minimizing low-value-added repetitive tasks. In addition, the measurement time was reduced by more than 50% and the machining measurement rate was improved by more than 20%, eliminating repetitive work for correcting machining defects, and reducing the work preparation time by more than 15% through automatic setting.

Micro electrical discharge machining (${\mu}EDM$) has been used for non-conventional material removal. One drawback of ${\mu}EDM$ is low productivity. In this study, we tried to find the optimal machining conditions to manufacture the micro hole with an optimal machining time without loss of accuracy. Taguchi method was used to figure out the relation between machining parameters and characteristics of the process. It was found that the electrode wear, the entrance and exit clearance gave a significant effect on the diameter of the micro hole when the diameter of the electrode was identical. Grey relational analysis was used to determine the optimal machining condition for minimum machining time without loss of accuracy. The obtained optimal machining condition was the input voltage of 80V, the capacitance of 680pF, the resistance of $500{\Omega}$, the feed rate of $1.5{\mu}m$/s and the spindle speed of 2900rpm. The machining time was reduced to 48% without loss of accuracy under the optimal machining condition.

Aluminum alloy, which is advantageous to machining and injection, makes a great contribution to shortening in delivery time, infection cycle time and reducing expense. This study presents machining conditions for mild materials and describes the difference between theoretical and practical machined surface roughnesses affected by various machining conditions. Machining results have been evaluated and analyzed under varying machining conditions. Special properties of the mild materials have been presented by the quantitative analysis and the optimal machining condition has been proposed for the mild materials.

This paper presents the optimization of a drilling operation subject to machining constraints such as power, torque, thrust, speed and feed rate. The optimization is meant to minimize the machining time required to produce a hole. For the first time, the effects of a pilot hole are included in the formulation of the machining constraints. The optimization problem is solved by using the geometric programming technique. The dual problem is simplified based on the characteristics of the problem, and the effects of machining constraints on the machining variables are identified.

Machining optimization using typical computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) software mainly depends on tool paths, and it is impossible to predict the behavior of material or cutting force. In this paper, cutting force analysis simulation is performed on the Unibody Case of a mobile phone with the aim of optimizing cutting-force-based machining using the Third Wave Systems' AdventEdge Production Module. Machining time after optimization was shortened by 42% for roughing compared to pre-optimization, and actual machining time was reduced by 36.8%. For finishing, machining time was reduced by 92%, and actual machining time was reduced around 90%. A surface roughness analysis found that the post-optimization surface roughness was $1.16{\mu}m$ Ra, compared to a pre-optimization value of $1.75{\mu}m$ Ra.

In micro electrochemical machining (micro ECM), machining conditions have been determined to maintain a small side gap and to machine a workpiece stably However, machining speed is slow. To improve machining speed while maintaining the form accuracy, the paper investigates machining parameters such as pulse amplitude, duty ratio, pulse on-time, and the electrolyte's temperature and concentration. The experiment in this study shows that the electrolyte's concentration is the key factor that can reduce machining time while maintaining the form accuracy Micro square columns were fabricated to confirm the machining parameters' effects.

The rapid machining of prototypes plays an important role in product process. Rapid Prototyping(RP) is the widespread technology to produce prototype. But, it have many problems such as shrinkage, deformation and formation occurred by hardening of resin and stair shaping, On the contrary, high speed machining(HSM) technology has many advantages such as good quality, low cost and rapid machining time. Moreover, it is possible to use the material of original product. This paper presents manufacture of trial product by HSM and optimization of machining condition for high productivity in the view of manufacturing time and average error. For example, propeller is machined by the surface machining of thin surface parts. Experiments are designed of machining conditions by Latin Square method and machining condition is optimized and selected by ANOVA

This paper presents a method for determining machining parameters in electrical discharge machining process (EDM) based on discharge area. The parameters are the peak value of currents, the pulse-on time, and the pulse-off time, on which the EDM performance depends chiefly. The optimal machining parameters are closely related on discharge area, which can be calculated from a tool electrode and a discharge height. In the paper the discharge area is obtained from NC code for machining the tool electrode instead of its geometric model. The method consists of following three steps. First a Z-Map model is constructed from the NC code. Secondly, the discharge area is obtained from the Z-Map model and a Z-height. Finally, the machining parameters are calculated from the discharge area. An introduced example shows that the machining parameters are calculated by the using a Z-map model obtained from the machining data for a tool electrode.

In wire discharge machining which is using STD 11 as die materials, the major factors of machining speed are discharge voltage, discharge current, and discharge time. All of the three factors give the effect. Increasing of the discharge pulse time gets groove width wider and it relatively increases surface roughness and clearance. If no load voltage is decreased, surface roughness is good but it decreases machining speed. If on time is increased, machining speed will get faster and clearance and offset value also get bigger.
