In micro hole punching process the burr occurs inevitably, but the burr must be minimized in order to improve the quality and accuracy of the product. In this study, magnetic field assisted polishing technique is applied to remove the burr which exists in nozzles for ink-jet printer head and proved to be a feasible for deburring by experiment. The deburring characteristics of sheet metals was investigated changing with polishing time. After the deburring, the burr size has remarkably reduced and roundness of the hole also has improved.

In order to optimize the polishing process, Run to Run control scheme has been applied to the micro mold polishing in this study. Also, to fully understand the effect of parameters on the surface roughness a design of experiment is performed. By linear approximation of main factors such as gap and rotational speed of micro quill, EWMA (Exponential Weighted Moving Average) gradual mode controller is adopted as a optimizing tool. Consequently, the process converged quickly at a target value of surface roughness Ra 10nm and Rmax 50nm, and was hardly affected by unwanted process noises like initial surface quality and wear of magnetic abrasives.

For the development of an ultra-precision CNC polishing system including on-machine measurement system, we study a corrective polishing algorithm. We analyze and test the unit removal profiles for a ball type polishing tool. Using these results we calculate dwell time distributions and residual errors for a target removal shape. We use the polishing simulation method and feed rate calculation method for the dwell time calculation. We test corrective polishing algorithm with an optical glass. The target removal shape is a sine wave that has amplitude 0.3 micro meters. We find this polishing process has a machining resolution of nanometer order and is effective for sub-micrometer order machining. This result will be used for the software development of the CNC polishing system.

Two decisive mechanisms of the electrorhological polishing for a small part(for example, a aspherical surface in a micro lens) are explained. Firstly, non-uniform electric field generated in the polishing structure increases a shear stress of ER fluids which is maximized dramatically near the tool, therefore, substrate adjacent to the tool can be removed effectively by mixed abrasives in the ER fluid. Secondly, abrasives in a non-uniform electric field are governed by the dielectrophoretic phenomena. Abrasives move toward the tool because the field gradient is highest near the tool and then abrasives are actively holded in that area. This phenomena is observed and evaluated by the optical measurement.

Pulse electrochemical machining process with high or low current density may produce a non-lustrous surface on workpiece surface. The usual polishing process to remove a black layer from the surface has been hand polish the part. But the milli-to-micro meter scale structure formed by the electrochemical machining process may be destroyed while polishing process. The application of ultra short voltage pulses based on the analysis of electrical double layer charging process allows high resolution electrochemical machining and polishing. This technique was based on the specific polarization resistance from the comparison of ideal and experimental potential variation during short voltage pulses.

CMP(Chemical Mechanical Polishing)는 반도체 소자 제조공정 중 다층 배선구조의 평탄 경면화에 널리 이용되고 있다. 차세대 웨이퍼로 각광받는 SOI(Silicon On Insulator) 웨이퍼 제조공정 중 웨이퍼 표면 미소 거칠기를 개선하기 위해서 본 논문에서는 여러 가지 가공변수(슬러리와 연마패드)에 따른 CMP 연마능률과 표면 미소 거칠기 변화에 대해 연구하였다. 결과적으로 연마능률은 슬러리의 입자 크기가 증가할수록 이에 따라 증가하였으며, 미소 거칠기는 슬러리의 연마입자보다는 연마패드에 영향이 더욱 지배적이다. AFM(Atomic Force Microscope)에 의한 평가에서 표면 미소 거칠기가 27 $\AA$ Rms에서 0.64 $\AA$ Rms로 개선됨을 확인할 수 있었다.

Electrolytic polishing is the anodic dissolution process in the transpassive state. It removes non-metallic inclusions and improves mechanical and corrosion resistance of stainless steel. Electrolytic polishing is normally used to remove a very thin layer of material from the surface of a metal object. An electrolyte of phosphoric, sulfuric and distilled water has been used in this study. In the low current density region, there can be found plateau region and material removal process and leveling process occur successively. In this study, an electrochemical polishing process using pulse current is adopted as a new electrochemical polishing process. In electrochemical machining processes, it has been found that pulse electrochemical processes provide an attractive alternative to the electrochemical processes using continuous current. Hence, this study will discuss the electrochemical polishing processes in low current density region and pulse electrochemical polishing.

Manufacturing technologies of micro spur gear and micro mold by micro PIM were studied with stainless steel feedstock. For molding of gears, micro mold with gear cavity of 1.2 mm in diameter was produced by wire EDM. The proper injection pressure was selected to 70bar by observation and measuring of shapes and shrinkage of gears before/after sintering. For fabrication of micro mold, a tiny polymer gear was produced by injection into the mold. Then, 316L feedstock was again injected/compressed on the polymer gear and debinded together with polymer gear followed by sintering. As a result, another metal mold with gear cavity reduced to about 20% was fabricated and through repetition of this process chain, micro gear mold with cavity about below 800 um was finally obtained. In reduction of size by injection/compression molding, height of gear tooth was shrunk more and the effort for decrease of roughness of micro cavity were carried out ultrasonic polishing and as a result, the roughness in cavity decreased from 3-4 um to about 200 nm.

Some investigators who have tried to achieve the highly smooth surface finish using electrochemical processes have reported that high current density produced lustrous surfaces while the opposite conditions produced a passive layer and had a tendency to produce a black surface. However, processing at a low current density may produce a non-lustrous surface but the improvement of dimensional accuracy of the surface is significant. The surface with pulse process was a bit more lustrous than with continuous current but the black passive layer still could be found at grooved surface. There are two ways to achieve highly smooth surface finish. One is brushing it with a brush the other is electrochemical machining (ECM) with high current. The former method is the most common polishing practice, but not only may the surface obtained differ from operator to operator, but precision smooth surface on micro grooves are difficult to obtain. The latter one recently has been used to produce a highly smooth surface after EDM process. However, the material removal rate in ECM with high current is relatively high. Hence the original shape of the micro grooves, which was formed by electrochemical micro-machining (EMM) process, may be destroyed. In this study, an electrochemical polishing process using pulse current is adopted as a possible alternative process when micro grooves formed by EMM process should be polished. Mirror-like micro grooves with lustrous and smooth surface can be produced electrochemically with pulse current because the voltage and current used can be lower than the case of continuous current. This study will discuss the accurate control of physical and electrical conditions so as to achieve mirror-like micro grooves with lustrous and smooth surface without destroying the original shape of micro grooves.
