Recently, Silicon Nitrde ceramic is regarded as the representative engineering ceramic with the excellent mechanical properties and many functions for mechanical components and parts among various kinds of ceramics in the mechanical industry. But, during the manufacturing of engineering ceramics, there is many volumetric shrinkage coupled with a distortion of the parts which is produced. Due to the requirement for high accuracy of size, form, and surface finish of the components, machining is needed surely. Nowdays, grinding with a resin bond type diamond wheels has been generally applied to machining of the engineering ceramics in the whole world because that it can be conveniently proceeded for workers to dress of tool and made with high reliability in producing factories among many bond type super-abrasive wheels yet. It is important task for attaining prescribed mechanical components with high reliability to observe the grinding mechanism of ceramics as like generation of cracks and chipping of material during process. Because they considerably effects on the strength characteristic of machined mechanical components. In this study, various surface grinding experiments using resin bond type diamond wheels are carried out for Silicon Nitride ceramic. Grinding mechanism of ceramics is observed experimentally and the relationship with various conditions is also attained. Form this experimental study, some useful machining data and information to determine proper machining condition for grinding of Silicon Nitride ceramic is obtained.

We present a series of simple but novel nanopatterning methodologies inspired by traditional mechanical machining processes involving rolling, pullout, and forging. First, we introduce roll-to-roll nanopatterning, which adapts conventional rolling for continuous nanopatterning. Then, nano-inscribing and nano-channel lithography are demonstrated, whereby seamless nanogratings can be continuously pulled out, as in a pullout process. Finally, we discuss vibrational indentation micro- and nanopatterning. Similarly to the forging/indentation process, this technique employs high-frequency vertical vibration to indent periodic micro/nanogratings onto a horizontally fed substrate. We discuss the basic principles of each process, along with its advantages, disadvantages, and potential applications. Adopting mature and reliable traditional technologies for small-scale machining may allow continuous nanopatterning techniques to cope with scalable and low-cost nanomanufacturing in a more productive and trustworthy way.

The recent development of core techniques in the IT industry can be summarized as a technical advancement for safety and convenience, and mechanical technology for being "eco-friendly" and lightweight. Under these circumstances, research of lightweight material has become attractive. In this study, CFRP (Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic) laminate specimens are subjected to a tensile test using the UTM(Universal Testing Machine, AG-IS 100 kN) to estimate their mechanical properties in terms of the Hole machining impact evaluation. The FEM (Finite Elements Method) analysis method is applied and the material properties obtained from basic experiments such as the Tensile test, the compressive test, and the shear test. CFRP materials properties from a previous study, as well as a finite element analysis program for Hole machining CFRP was compared with the experiments.

In focused ion beam (FIB) fabrication processes the ion beam intensity with Gaussian profile has a drawback for high resolution machining. In this paper, the fabrication method to modify the beam profile at substrate using silt mask is proposed to increase the machining resolution at high current. Slit mask is utilized to block the part of beam and transmit only high intensity portion. A nano manipulator is utilized to handle the silt mask. Geometrical analysis on fabricated profile through silt mask was conducted. By utilizing proposed method, improvement of machining resolution was achieved.

This study investigates the non-traditional manufacturing process of dry wire electrical discharge machining (EDM) in which liquid dielectric is replaced by a gaseous medium. Wire EDM experiments of thin workpieces were conducted both in wet and dry EDM conditions to examine the effects of spark cycle (T), spark on-time ($T_{on}$), thickness of work pieces, and work material on machining performance. The material removal rate (MRR) in the dry wire EDM case was much lower than that in the wet wire EDM case. In addition, the thickness of workpiece and work-material were found to be critical factors influencing the MRR for dry EDM process. The relative ratios of spark, arc and short circuit were also calculated and compared to examine the effectiveness of processes of dry and wet wire EDM.

Recently, high-efficiency machining in the production of high-value products with complex shapes has constantly been required along with the need for hybrid machining. In this study, in addition to wire-cut Electric Discharge Machining (EDM) and vibration, we present the possibility of a hybrid process by carrying out an experiment with aluminum alloy, and the hybrid process determines the nature of the surface. The selected experimental parameters are waveform, amplitude, peak current, and two-dimensional (2D) vibration. The experimental results give the guideline for selecting reasonable machining parameters. The surface roughness was improved about 20% with increases in the amplitude of the vibration.

Increasing demands on precision machining using CNC machines have necessitated that the tool to move with a position error as small as possible in 3-dimensional (3D) space. This paper presents the simultaneous 3D machining with a retrofitted PC-NC milling machine. To achieve the simultaneous 3-axis motions, a new precision interpolation algorithm for 3D Non-Uniform Rational B-Spline(NURBS) curve is used. With this accurate and efficient algorithm for the generation of complex. 3D shapes, a real-time NURBS interpolator was developed using a PC and the simultaneous 3D machining is accomplished.

This paper presents the experimental results to verify the environmental consciousness with economic balances due to cutting fluid behaviors and effectiveness in machining process. The cutting fluid improves the productivity through cooling, lubricating effects, however its environmental impact also increases according to the cutting fluid usage. The primary mechanism in this study is the spin-of motion of cutting fluids away from the rotating workpiece. In this study some machining parameters are adopted to analyze the productivity as well as environmental impact. This study provides the criteria for the resonable cutting fluid usage quantitatively to develop the environmentally conscious machining process.
