The flank wear at the minor cutting edge significantly affects the geometric accuracy and surface roughness in finish machining. A fuzzy estimator based on a fuzzy inference algorithm with a max-min composition rule is introduced to evaluate the minor flank wear length. The features sensitive to minor flank wear are extracted from the dispersion analysis of a time series AR model of the feed directional acceleration signal. These features, dispersions, are used for constructing linguistic rules, and then the fuzzy inferences are carried out with test data sets collected under various cutting conditions. The proposed system turns out to be effective for estimating minor flank wear length.

A burr has been defined as undesirable projection of material formed as the result of plastic flow from a cutting or shearing operation. It is unavoidable in all kinds of machining operation. As a result, burr makes troubles on manufacturing process due to deburring cost, quality of products and productivity. In face milling operation, burrs are formed along five edges on the workpiece. In this study, the primary interest is about exit burr The influence of the cutting parameters on the formation of exit burrs in face milling will be described experimentally. Using the results of experimental study, burr types are classified according to appearance and formation mechanism in exit burr. The burr formation mechanism in each type of burr is suggested. Data bases are developed to predict burr formation result.

Burr makes trobles on manufacturing process due to deburring cost, quality of products and productivity. This paper described the results of experimental study on the influence of the cutting parameters on the formation of exit burrs in face milling. The cutting parameters were investigated changing exit angle, rake nagle , lead angle in tool geometry as well as feed per tooth. Also we carried out experimets on several materials. Using the result of experimental study, burr types are classified according to appearance and formation mechanism in exit burr and we are considered the burr formation in each type of burr.

The fracture characteristics and tool life of ceramics and WC, CBN cutting tool when turning heat treated steel STD11($H_RC$ 60) were investigated experimentally to clarify the machinability and optimum tool materials in cutting of difficult-to-cut material with high hardness. Forthermore, the behaviors of the tool wear and failure were examined with regard to cutting force. The hardened steel wore the cutting tool edge rapidily and increased the cutting forces, especially radial force. The tool was worn by the abrasive action. Flank Weat of $Al_2O_3-TiC$ ceramic and WC tool become relatively large and CBN & $Al_2O_3$, ceramic tool had a long life among the tool materials tested. The tool fracture patterns were just like minor cutting wear, flank wear, crater wear, notch wear, chipping. Flank wear rate was accelerated by occurrence of chipping. During the proceeding of machining, it was possible to foresee the catastrophic fracture of tool by abrupt increase of radial force.

Recently, information-Ievel of the people has been increased with growing IT cutting-edge technology. There is a trend to combine these achievements with information-technology, ubiquitous technology, and mobile technology in the field of transportation. Along with this trend, a PDA-based traffic accident investigation device was developed. This paper established the evaluation method of feasibility test on the PDA device, and performed qualitative and quantitative evaluation as compared with the current practice (manual investigation). Test results showed that traffic accident investigation using the PDA device was faster and more convenient than manual investigation. It is expected that the reliability of accident investigation will be improved by applying this tool with minor modifications.
