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.

With the recent development of machining technology, high speed machining process is widely used for-the mold and difficult-to -cut-materials machining since it allows achieving high productivity and surface quality. However, during the high speed machining process, high cutting speed and feed rate can cause abrupt tool life decrease due to rapid rising of the cutting tool temperature. Such situation may cause increase of machining cost. Thus, in this study, developed optimization algorithm is applied to determine optimal machining variables for multiple high speed machining. The R-T characteristic curve for machining economics problems with a linear-lorarithmic tool life model is determined by applying sensitivity analysis. finally, a series of high speed machining experiments are performed to determine the desired optimal machining variables, and the results are analyzed.

A chatter lobe analysis is frequently used to look at the chatter state. Even if there is a lot of research on chatter, chatter lobe characteristics are not well defined. In this study, the chatter lobe behavior according to several variables of vibration mode is verified for further clarity. The dynamic variables of the chatter model are defined and their behaviors on chatter lobe boundary are analyzed in detail. In this sense, the chatter model with 2-DOF (2-DOF) was used to analyze chatter stability characteristics. The discussed results are satisfying and these can be used for the prediction of chatter existence in machining processes of 2-DOF systems in several revolution range. These analyses indicate a better agreement for predicting an appropriate stability lobe over a wide detailed range of critical depths of cut in machining operation. The results allow an excellent prediction of chatter according to various static and dynamic variables in machining states. The behavior of chatter dynamic variables in machining were also discussed in detail. All these results can also be applied to other machining processes by establishing a chatter model in a 2-DOF system.

Generally, in machining operations, the required machining performance can be obtained by properly combining several machining parameters properly. In this research, we construct a simulation model, which that predicts the relationship between the input variables and output variables in the turning operation. Input variables necessary for the turning operation include cutting speed, feed, and depth of cut. Surface roughness and electrical current consumption are used as the output variables. To construct the simulation model, an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) is employed. With theIn ANN, training is necessary to find appropriate weights, and the Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) technique is used as a training tool. EspeciallyIn particular, for the continuous domain, ACOR is adopted and athe related algorithm is developed. Finally, the effects of the algorithm on the results are identified and analyzsed.

Single side final polishing is a very important role to stabilize a wafer finally before the device process on the wafer is executed. In this study, the machining variables, such as pressure, machining time, and the velocity of pad table were adopted. These parameters have the major influence on the characteristics of wafer polishing. We investigated the surface roughness changing these variables to find the optimal polishing condition. Pad, slurry, slurry quantity, and oscillation distance were set to the fixed variables. In order to reduce defects and find a stable machining condition, a hall sensor was used on the polishing process. AE sensor was attached to the polishing machine to verify optimal condition. Applying data analysis of the sensor signal, experiments were performed. We can get better surface roughness from loading the quasi static force and improving wafer-holding method.

Some studies have shown that unstable factors are inherent in WEDM process, causing the instability of the discharging pulse to reach about 40∼60％ in normal machining. Transient stability is an important subject in WEDM process since there is a close relationship between stability and machining performance, such as the characteristics of a machined surface, machining speed and problem of instability like wire rupture phenomenon. Among the many machining parameters affecting WEDM machining state, three specific parameters (Vr, Ip, off time ) are major controllable variables that can be applied in transient stability control. And, this research investigates the implementation and analysis of real-time micro control of the discharging stability of WEDM (Wire Electric Discharge Machining) process.

Helical machining is an efficient method for machining holes using an endmill. In this study, a surface roughness prediction model was constructed for improving the productivity of hole machining. Experiments were conducted to form holes by the helical machining of AL6061-T4 aluminum sheets and correlation analysis was performed to examine the relationships between the variables based on the measured results. Meanwhile, a regression analysis technique was used to construct and evaluate the prediction model. Through these analyses, the parameter which has the greatest influence on the surface roughness when the hole is formed by the helical machining is the feed, followed by the number of revolutions of the endmill. Moreover, for the axial feed of the endmill, it was concluded that the influence of the surface roughness is small compared to the other two parameters but it is a factor worth considering to improve the accuracy when constructing the predictive model.

In the fabrication of curved multi-display glass for automotive use, the surface roughness of the mold is a critical quality factor. However, the difficulty in detecting micro-cutting signals in a micro-machining environment and the absence of a standardized model for predicting micro-cutting forces make it challenging to intuitively infer the correlation between cutting variables and actual surface roughness under machining conditions. Consequently, current practices heavily rely on machining condition optimization through the utilization of cutting models and experimental research for force prediction. To overcome these limitations, this study employs a surface roughness prediction formula instead of a cutting force prediction model and converts the surface roughness prediction formula into experimental data. Additionally, to account for changes in surface roughness during machining runtime, the theory of position variables has been introduced. By leveraging artificial neural network technology, the accuracy of the surface roughness prediction formula model has improved by 98%. Through the application of artificial neural network technology, the surface roughness prediction formula model, with enhanced accuracy, is anticipated to reliably perform the derivation of optimal machining conditions and the prediction of surface roughness in various machining environments at the analytical stage.
