Metal casting is a process in which molten metal or liquid metal is poured into a mold made of sand, metal, or ceramic. The mold contains a cavity of the desired shape to form geometrically complex parts. The casting process is used to create complex shapes that are difficult to make using conventional manufacturing practices. For the optimal casting process design of sleeve parts, various analyses were performed in this study using commercial finite element analysis software. The simulation was focused on the behaviors of molten metal during the mold filling and solidification stages for the precision and sand casting products. This study developed high-life sleeve parts for the sink roll of continuous hot-dip galvanizing equipment by applying a wear-resistant alloy casting process.

사출성형공정에서 미성형은 가장 빈번하게 발생하는 성형불량중의 하나이다. 이러한 미성형을 해결하기 위해 가상 경제적인 효율적인 방법은 공정조건을 개선하는 일이다. 그러나 대부분의 경우 사출 전문가의 오랜 기간 축적된 경험과 지식에 의존하기 때문에 여러 번의 시행착오을 겪어야 한다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 퍼지 알고리즘을 기반으로 하여 시스템에 적합한 공정조건을 찾는데 있어 시행착오를 줄이고, 또한 비전문가도 쉽게 적용학 수 있는 지능형 공정조건 생성 시스템을 제안하였다.

Recently, as the development of manufacturing technique on SMC(sheet molding compound), various numerical and experimental approaches to injection and compression molding have been investigated. Injection and compression molding, however, has so various cases with complicated boundary condition that it is difficult to analyze mold characteristics precisely. In addition, since a slight change in process variables can significantly change the resulting mold thickness, a proper design is important to compression molding process. Therefore, in this study, the effects of various parameters on compression molding process have been investigated using FEM(finite element method) to formulate the melt front advancement during the mold filling process. To verify the results of present analysis, they are compared with those of reference. The results show a strong effect of initial charge volume, injection time and pressure as a result of variations in the rectangular charge shape.

본 연구에서는 사출성형 충전공정 중 금형의 변형을 예측하기 위하여 비뉴턴 유동, 열전달, 구조해석이 함께 고려된 수치해석 연구를 수행하였다. 정밀 사출성형 금형을 설계/제작하기 위해서는 충전공정 중에 발생하는 금형의 변형을 정확하게 예측하는 것이 중요하다. 이와 같은 금형의 국부적인 변형은 다양한 요인에 의해 발생할 수 있으나, 용융된 고분자 수지의 유동에 의한 압력이 가장 큰 원인 중의 하나로 여겨지고 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 2 차원 축대칭 형상의 단순 원형 디스크 제품의 금형을 모델링하고 이에 대한 수치해석을 수행하였다. 이를 바탕으로 금형 내부의 고분자 수지의 유동 특성과 금형 변형량, 온도 분포에 대한 분석을 수행하였다. 또한 다구치 방법을 기반으로 한 실험계획법을 도입하여 유동 속도, 금형 온도, 고분자 수지의 온도가 금형 변형에 미치는 영향을 파악하였다.

As a rotating machine element, plastic gears are more and more widely used in such as industrial machine element, since plastic gear is lighter, higher wear-resistance, and higher vibration absorbing ability than metal gears. When operating plastic parts, tooth breakage and fatigue life shortened due to increasing number of applying load and tooth flank temperature rising, such that accuracy of plastic gears is divided from allowable range to cause vibration and noise. On this study, a internal plastic gears are developed which improved the filling balance molding process by a new injection mold structure. The new mold structure called HR3P(hot runner type 3plate mold). As the result from this studies, we obtained a very accurate roundness internal gears by using design of experiment.

자동차 계기판을 제조하는 기체 사출 성형의 공정에 있어서 전산 모사를 통한 공정성 및 제조된 제품의 물성 향상에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. ABS 삼원공중합체의 P-V-T 자료를 이용하여 기체 사출 공정을 적용하였으며 시간에 따른 금형 충전 효과를 예측하였다. 또한 기체 사출 성형에 있어서 압력, 충전 시간, 기체의 주입 통로 및 런너의 위치 등 다양한 가공 인자들을 변화시킴으로서 공정의 최적 조건을 찾을 수 있었다. 이러한 전산 모사를 통하여 확립된 공정을 통해 제조된 계기판은 일반적인 사출 성형법에 의해 제조되어진 제품에 비해서 우수한 치수 및 변형 안정성이 개선되었다.

In resin transfer molding (RTM) process, preplaced fiber mat is set up in a mold and thermoset resin is injected into the mold. An important interest in RTM process is to minimize cycle time without sacrificing part quality or increasing cost. In this study, the numerical simulation and optimization process in filling stage were conducted in order to determine the optimum gate locations. Control volume finite element method (CVFEM) was used in this numerical analysis with the coordinate transformation method to analyze the complex 3-dimensional structure. Experiments were performed to monitor the flow front to validate simulation results. The results of numerical simulation predicted well the experimental results with every single, simultaneous and sequential injection procedure. We performed the optimization analysis for the sequential injection procedure to minimize fill time. The complex geometry of an automobile bumper core was chosen. Genetic algorithm was used in order to determine the optimum gate locations with regard to 3-step sequential injection case. These results could provide the information of the optimum gate locations in each injection step and could predict fill time and flow front.

The Injection molding is used more than 70% of total production in plastic products. The injection molding process has 4 processes such as filling, packing, cooling and ejecting. It spends most of times in the cooling process. Therefore, it is important to control the mold temperature in producing plastic products. The cooling system and time affect the product's quality and productivity. Especially, cooling time has about 60% of total injection cycle time. Therefore, we can improve a productivity by shortening cooling time. In this study, the rapid cooling system was developed and performed a efficiency test. This system could refrigerate coolant to $1^{\circ}C$ and had to need 10 minutes for normal operating. However, if response time of temperature controller and sensor will be increased, the performance of this system will increase.
