PAS(Plasma Activated Sintering) process was tried to apply for the fabrication of BMG(Bulk Metallic Glasses) of $Ni_{57}Zr_{20}Ti_{18}Si_5}\;and\;Ni_{57}Zr_{20}Ti_{18}Si_3Sn_2$ from the as-atomized amorphous powder. Compressive strength for the BMG(bulk Metallic Glasses) of $Ni_{57}Zr_{20}Ti_{18}Si_5$ were lower than those of BMG rods produced by warm extrusion ,or copper mold casting method. Microstructural examination by optical microcope, SEM ana EDS showed that oxidation had occurred during PASintering. In order to prevent the powder from the oxidation during PASintering, Ni coating for $Ni_{57}Zr_{20}Ti_{18}Si_5$ amorphous powder by electroless-plating method was performed. Microstructural examination for Ni coated layers after PASintering indicated that the Ni coating had been so effective to prevent powder from oxidation during PASintering. Sintering behaviors of $Ni_{57}Zr_{20}Ti_{18}Si_3Sn_2$ represent the same as those of $Ni_{57}Zr_{20}Ti_{18}Si_5$.

The microstructure and tensile properties of Mg-Zn-Ca and Mg-Zn-Mn-Ca alloys have been investigated. The alloys were obtained by melting in a low carbon crucible coated with boron nitride under an Ar gas atmosphere to prevent oxidation and combustion. The Mg alloy melt was cast into the metallic mold at room temperature, and cooling part was located at the bottom of mold. The phase formed during solidification of the Mg-Zn-(Mn) alloys containing 0.5%Ca is $Ca_2Mg_6Zn_3$. The yield strength and ultimate tensile strength of the alloys increased with increasing Zn content, but the ductility did not change with increasing Zn content. The addition of Mn improves the yield strength and ultimate tensile strength of the alloys, but the ductility did not change. Tensile fracture of the alloys revealed brittle failure, with cracking along the $Ca_2Mg_6Zn_3$ phase. The variation of stress with strain obeyed the relationship of the ${\sigma}=K{\varepsilon}^n$.

Beverage industry is the largest in the domestic packaging market. Usually, beverage is packed in palstic, glass, can and paper bags. However, the cost of these packaging methods are very high and the recycling are not easy to handle. Pouch packaging method is one of the packaging method to solve the drawbacks of former beverage containers. The pouch packaging methods are difficult to control, it requires a number of processes. A vertical form-fill-seal machine which is self-developed is the capable of processing in a single apparatus. In this paper, in order to develop a pouch equipment, the structure analysis was carried out for the main unit. The stress and deformation of feed unit which removes the air inside the pouch while feeding down has been analyzed. It receives the greatest impact from the rolling part. And also, the sealing unit has been analyzed. The analysis result shows that the stress and the deformation was slight to be applicable to the actual system.

In general, metallic bio-materials is more widely used in solid tissue like bone or tooth than flexible tissue such as skin or muscle. Especially, Cobalt Chrome Molybdenum(Co-Cr-Mo), which is used in tooth surgery, has a great corrosion resistance. Because this bio-material is non-toxic in human body, and has a bio-compatibility that the vital reaction is not occurred with tissue in body. However the chemical reaction is occurred by fatal matter that deteriorate the property of material surface in conventional polishing, and it can affect to fatal disease in human body or decrease the material properties such as hardness, yield strength or bio-compatibility. This surface in poor condition can cause development of corrosion or bacteria. In this study, MR fluid polishing is used to minimize the scratch, pit or surface flaws generated in conventional polishing. Surface roughness is measured according to the polishing condition to obtain fine surface condition.

Thermal infrared cameras have been conducted actively in various application areas, such as military, medical service, industries and cars. Because of their characteristic of sensing the radiant heat emitted from subjects in the range of long-wavelength($3{\sim}5{\mu}m$ or $8{\sim}12{\mu}m$), and of materializing a vision system, when general optics materials are used, they don't react to the light in the range of long-wavelength, and can't display their optic functions. Therefore, the materials with the feature of higher refractive index, reacting to the range of long-wavelength, are to be used. The kinds of materials with the characteristic of higher refractive index are limited, and their features are close to those of metals. Because of these metallic features, the existing producing method of optical systems were direct manufacturing method using grinding method or CAD/CAM, which put limit on productivity and made it difficult to properly cope with the increasing demand of markets. GASIR, a material, which can be molded easily, was selected among infrared ray optics materials in this study, and the optical system was designed with two Aspheric lenses. Because the lenses are molded in the environment of high temperature and high pressure, they require a special metallic pattern. The metallic pattern was produced with materials with ultra hardness that can stand high temperature and high pressure. As for the lens mold, GMP(Glass Molding Press) of the linear transfer method was used in order to improve the productivity of optical systems for thermal infrared cameras, which was the goal of this paper.

ELID(Electrolytic In-process Dressing) grinding is an excellent technique for mirror grinding of various advanced metallic or nonmetallic materials. A polishing process is also required for elimination of scratches present on ELID grinded surfaces. MAP(Magnetic Assisted Polishing) has been used as polishing method due to its high polishing efficiency and to its resulting in a superior surface quality. This study is describing an effective fabrication method combining ELID and MAP of nano-precision mirror grinding for glass-lens molding mould. It also presents some techniques for achieving the nanometer roughness of the hard metals, such as WC-Co, which are extensively used in precision tooling material.

This paper presents metal structure that is fabricated using UV-LIGA process with PMER N-CA3000. In order to fabricate metal structure with high aspect ratio, the systematic optimization method was adopted and then the structure of $36{\mu}m$ thick mold with aspect ratio 7:1 (trench) and $32{\mu}m$ thick nickel structure was obtained. This structure is applied to the fabrication of optical switch.

In this work, we developed a high resolution printing technique based on transferring a pattern from a PDMS stamp to a Pd and Au substrate by microcontact printing Also, we fabricated various 2D metallic and polymeric nano patterns with the feature resolution of sub-micrometer scale by using the method of microcontact printing (${\mu}$CP) based on soft lithography. Silicon masters for the micro molding were made by e-beam lithography. Composite poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) molds were composed of a thin, hard layer supported by soft PDMS layer. From this work, it is certificated that composite PDMS mold and undercutting technique play an important role in the generation of a clear SAM nanopattern on Pd and Au substrate.

Temperature and velocity distributions of hot air flows in rotational molding machines with two different shapes and structures of oven and inlet were investigated by using FLUENT, a commercial computational fluid dynamics code. The shape and structure of oven and inlet in current rotational molding machine were improved. Two different sizes of mold inside each oven were considered in the analysis. Temperature and velocity distributions of hot air flows in two different rotational molding machines were compared to each other. In order to reduce cycle time and improve product quality in current rotational molding machine, the improved shape and structure of oven and inlet were proposed.

Copy machines have been used in the 3 dimensional shape machining like the non-sphere surface. This study is intended to show the possibility of manufacturing of a non-sphere shape without a exclusive CAM(Computer Aided Manufacturing) software in the process of metallic mold. It has been examined under the two types of working conditions. One is a cutting by manual programming and the other is a cutting by a general-purpose CAM software. Two kinds of output data were compared and analyzed, and data by a manual program were discovered more accurate than those of a general-purpose CAM software. In this study, I came to a conclusion it is possible to manufacture a 3 dimensional shape without a exclusive CAM software.
