This paper deal with a technique for monitoring machining conditions by measuring the vibration of cutting forces at milling machining. The vibrations of cutting forces in milling process were measured and analyzed to be related with processing parameters. The magnitude of cutting force is linearly proportional to the feed rate and cutting depth, and frequency of cutting force is linearly proportional to the rotating speed. Wired and wireless communication methods were applied in transmitting the measured vibration signals and the two methods were compared. The magnitude of the vibration signals transmitted by the wireless communication method was similar to that transmitted by the wired communication method.

This paper presents a contribution to improving an analytical thermo-mechanical modeling of Oxley's machining theory of orthogonal metals cutting, which objective is the prediction of the cutting forces, the average stresses, temperatures and the geometric quantities in primary and secondary shear zones. These parameters will then be injected into the developed model of Karas et al. (2013) to predict temperature distributions at the tool-chip-workpiece interface. The amendment to Oxley's modified model is the reduction of the estimation of time-related variables cutting process such as cutting forces, temperatures in primary and secondary shear zones and geometric variables by the introduction the constitutive equation of Johnson-Cook model. The model-modified validation is performed by comparing some experimental results with the predictions for machining of 0.38% carbon steel.

A computational study was carried out to analyze the characteristics of supersonic (Mach 2.0) coaxial/off-axis jet's impingements on a slanted kerf surface in laser machining. The effects of various parameters such as gas pressure, distance between nozzle exit and kerf edge surface, and application of off-axis nozzles on the impingement phenomena of the assist-gas on kerf surface were observed. The present study showed that simply increasing the assist-gas pressure for coaxial supersonic nozzle was not effective to alleviate the strength of flow separation on kerf surface. It also presented the optimized operating condition of the coaxial nozzle to have the highest skin friction values over kerf surface.

High hardness of P/M parts can be obtained in the cooling section of the sintering furnace by using sinter hardenable materials, thus the post-sintering heat treatment can be eliminated. However, the sinter hardened materials would have difficulties in secondary machining if it is required, which will limit the applications of sinter hardenable materials in the machined parts. Recent development in warm compaction technology can enable us not only to achieve the high green density up to $7.4\;g/cm^3$, but also the high green strength which is needed for green machining. Therefore by using warm compaction technology, the green machining can be applied to sinter hardenable materials for the high density, strength and hardness P/M parts. In the present study, a pre-alloyed steel powder, ATOMET4601, was used by mixing with 2.0% copper, 1.0% nickel, 0.9% graphite and a proprietary lubricant using a binder treatment process - FLOMET. The specimens were compacted and green machined with different machining parameters. The machined surface finish and part integrity were evaluated in selecting the optimal conditions for green machining. The possibility of applying the green machining to the high-density structural parts was explored.

Titanium alloys have been spotlighted in numerous industries owing to their superior mechanical properties, such as high specific strength. However, the high heat and wear resistance of titanium alloys also lower their machinability and limit the wider application of the material. Many researchers have investigated the processing of titanium alloys, and it is required to evaluate the effectiveness and efficiency of developed technologies. From this perspective, this research studied sustainability in titanium alloy machining. The power consumption of the machine was measured during the process and analyzed in terms of process parameters and individual machine components. Here, an end mill specially designed for titanium was also investigated and compared with a general-purpose cutting tool. Based on the experimental results, a model was constructed to predict the power consumption of the overall process. It is expected that this study will contribute to the more effective and efficient processing of titanium alloys.

As gas turbines for power generation become increasingly more important for high capacity and high efficiency, the technological development and investment of companies are increasing globally. Gas turbine manufacturing technology is only owned by a few companies such as GE, Siemens, and MHI, and our country currently depends on imports of processing technology and component parts. The core part of the gas turbine is curvic coupling tooth processing technology that improves turbine efficiency by smoothly transmitting power to the turbine rotor. Curvic coupling tooth machining and evaluation research is restricted overseas, and it is not underway in Korea. Therefore, in this study, roughing and finishing process technology for curvic coupling tooth machining is developed and a quantitative evaluation method is proposed. For the development of machining technology, the analysis of critical parameters was performed through C & E analysis. In the roughing process, the conditions considering the minimum machining time and tool load ratio were determined. Finishing process conditions were determined based on the contact ratio between the tooth surfaces. The image-processing method is presented for evaluation of the contact ratio and a verification test was performed.

In manufacturing press die with free surface, grinding operation is an important post process for surface finish and dimensional accuracy. With the advancement of NC technology. surface grinding operation is increasingly replaced by the gantry type manipulator. As the mechanics for grinding operation is different from machining operation, conventional CAM system for machining operation is hard to apply. In this. paper, we develop a five-axis CAM system by which an efficient gantry trajectory can be planned and verified. The developed system consists of four conceptual modules; namely CAD, PROCESS. CAM, and ANALYSIS. In the CAD module, the machined surface is represented by CL-data or surface modeler, and process parameters are specified by the PROCESS module. Then, the CAM module generates a series of grinding paths based on the grinding mechanics together with process databases for tool spaces and grinding conditions. The generated paths are verified via ANALYSIS module. Validation via real experiments is left for further study.

One of the parameters that influence the productivity of every industry, involved in metal cutting, is the chip from ; continuous or broken chip. Chip form varies according to machining conditions, material used, tool geometry and chip breaker geometry. Therefore, in this study we carried out the experiment on the chip control in machining STS304 using an attached obstruction type chip breaker. Namely, with the change of a chip breaker distance, chip breaker angle, cutting characteristics in machining STS304 which is well-known as a machining difficult material and produces a saw-toothed chip. The results of the experiment are as follows : 1. The chip breaker distance and angle under which the preferred chip is produced, show 1.5mm and 60 .deg. , while chip breaker angle in machining an ordinary steel was well-known 45 .deg. . 2. During the cutting process, the change of feed than the change of velocity was applied as cutting conditions, effects more clearly on the chip breaking. 3. Considering a whole surface roughness, it is not advisable to apply chip breaker mentioned above for precision cutting.

The application of focused ion beam (FIB) depends on the optimal interaction of the operation parameters between operating parameters which control beam and samples on the stage during the FIB deposition process. This deposition process was investigated systematically in C precursor gas. Under the fine beam conditions (30kV, 40nm beam size, etc), the effect of considered process parameters - dwell time, beam overlap, incident beam angle to tilted surface, minimum frame time and pattern size were investigated from deposition results by the design of experiment. For the process analysis, influence of the parameters on FIB-CVD process was examined with respect to dimensions and constructed shapes of single and multi- patterns. Throughout the single patterning process, optimal conditions were selected. Multi-patterning deposition were presented to show the effect of on-stage parameters. The analysis have provided the sequent beam scan method and the aspect-ratio had the most significant influence for the multi-patterning deposition in the FIB processing. The bitmapped scan method was more efficient than the one-by-one scan type method for obtaining high aspect-ratio (Width/Height > 1) patterns.
