Additive manufacturing technology, called as 3D printing, is one of fourth industrial revolution technologies that can drive innovation in the manufacturing process, and thus should be applied to nuclear industry for various purposes according to the manufacturing trend change in the future. In this paper, we performed tensile tests of 3D printed stainless steel 316L as-built specimens manufactured by two types of technology; DED (Directed Energy Deposition) and PBF (Powder Bed Fusion). Their mechanical properties (tensile strength, yield strength, elongation and reduction of area) were compared. As a result of comparison, the mechanical properties of the PBF specimens were slightly better than those of DED specimens. In the same additive type of specimens, the tensile and yield strength of specimens in the X and Y direction were higher than those in the Z direction, but the elongation and ROA were lower.

Many manufacturing processes involved in the fabrication and assembly of hightech components have highly variable yields that tend to complicate the production control. Under this random yield situation we develop a model to determine optimal input quantity, mean waiting time in the system and variance of waiting time in the system. An example which considers beta distribution as a yield distribution is given.

In the manufacture of integrated circuits, photolithography is the lowest yield step in present production lines. Electron beams form a powerful set of tools with which to attack this problem. Electron beams can be used to make patterns that are smaller than can a photolithography. We design a high voltage generator of electron beam manufacturing system. For this purpose, first, the configuration of electron beam manufacturing system was analyzed. Second, the basic configuration of a high voltage generator and test results were presented.

A basic assessment is presented of the technical, economic and strategic challenges expected for manufacturing displays in a roll-to-roll format. Two general pathways are considered; one that results in dramatic cost reductions but results in sacrificing product performance, and another which is an extension of the conventional FPD cost-reduction from increased substrate size. While Roll-to-Roll fabrication is fundamentally possible, feasibility experiments will be required to address the most significant technical challenge: achieving and managing acceptable yield. In all respects, the efforts to achieve RTR manufacturing will be assisted by overlapping interests in other application areas such as flex circuit, photovoltaics and large area lighting.

The original tolerances, which are assigned by designers on the basis of handbooks and experience, cannot always be expected to be optimal or feasible, because they may yield an unacceptable manufacturing costs. So the systematic tolerance design considering manufacturing costs should be done. Therefore, this research analyzes the tolerance within the tolerance design using Monte-Carlo simulation method and sensitivity analysis and using genetic algorithm by tolerance allocation method. The genetic algorithm was developed for allocation of the optimal tolerance under the manufacturing limitation cost.

Additive manufacturing technology is recognized as an optimal technology for mass-customized distributed production because it can yield products with high design freedom by applying an automated production system. However, the introduction of novel technologies to the additive manufacturing industry is generally delayed, and technology uncertainty has been pointed out as one of the main causes. This paper presents the results of the research and analysis of current standardization trends that are related to additive manufacturing by examining the hierarchical structure of the quality system along with the various industry and evaluation standards. Consequently, it was confirmed that the currently unfolding standardization does not sufficiently reflect the characteristics of additive manufacturing technology, and rather can become a barrier to entry for market participants or an element that suppresses the lateral shearing ability of additive manufacturing technology.

Burn-in is an engineering method for screening out products containing reliability defects which would cause early failures in field operation. Previously, various burn-in models have been proposed mainly focused on the trade-off of shop repair cost and warranty cost ignoring manufacturing yield. From the view point of a manufacturer, however, burn-in decreases warranty cost at the expense of yield reduction. In this paper, we provide a general model quantifying a trade-off between product yield and reliability, in which any defect distribution from previous yield models can be used. A profit function is expressed in burn-in environments for determining an optimal burn-in time. Finally, the method is illustrated with gate oxide failures which is an important reliability concerns for VLSI CMOS circuits.

Process control is crucial in many industries, especially in semiconductor manufacturing. In such large-volume multistage manufacturing systems, a product has to go through a very large number of processing steps with reentrant) before being completed. This manufacturing system has many machines of different types for processing a high mix of products. Each process step has specific quality standards and most of them have nonlinear dynamics due to physical and/or chemical reactions. Moreover, many of the processing steps suffer from drift or disturbance. To assure high stability and yield, on-line quality monitoring of the wafers is required. In this paper we develop a real-time fault detection system on semiconductor manufacturing process. Proposed system is superior to other incremental fault detection system and shows similar performance compared to batch way.

In this study, new way of evaluating manufacturing cost Is organized and applied. In real manufacturing circumstances, tolerances of parts and assemblies are closely related to the cost. Several researches have been tried to identify the relations and set models. Moreover tolerances have influences on the maintenance of the manufacturing facilities. However Past researches have not considered the processing cost for the failed products. Therefore maintenance costs are represented as stochastic expressions, which include reliability of assembly and facilities. The stochastic nature of the maintenance cost is modeled and solved using Markov chain approach. Results show that this approach gives reliable estimations with remarkable computing time reduction.
