In the part industry, pipe has required high accuracy in surface roughness and size. Especially, when producing the high frequency welding pipe, cutting process is very important as the finishing process that remove the hot welding bead. The objective of this paper is to investigate the hot machining high frequency welded pipe by simulation and experimental tests. To test the cutting process as hot machining, all cutting environment is reproduced in turning with heating system, and the test is accomplished by comparing with room temperature machining and hot machining in consideration of cutting force, tool wear and cutting temperature.

In this paper, we proposed the automatic cutting mechanism of the perforation pipes in an automobile muffler. This cutting mechanism makes continuous work possible, because it performs the batch work via the sequential operation of loading, feeding, cutting, and discharging. The proposed cutting mechanism consists of the frame unit, escape unit, turning unit, feeding unit, vision system, clamping unit, spindle/cutting unit and cooling unit. And, these mechanisms have been modularized through mechanical, dynamical and structural optimized design using the SMO (SimDesigner Motion) analysis module. Also, the virtual prototype was carried out using the 3-D CAD program. The cutting process cycle is performed in the order of loading, vision processing, feeding, clamping, cutting and discharging. And the cycle time for cutting one piece was designed to be completed in four seconds.

Joint paths of master and branch pipes are induced mathematically for many kinds of joint patterns between both pipes in 3-axis pipe profile-cutting machines. By compensating them with a kerf width, the real cutting paths are determined, and their CL-data are generated, and the tool paths generated by CL-data are verified by a ghost function. A bevelling of welds is implemented through tilting a cutting torch in the $\beta$-axis direction for 8 sections in the chuck rotation of $\alpha$-axis. A PLC controls simultaneously position and velocity in a real time for $\alpha$, X, $\beta$-axis by loading CL-data generated. We developed the PLC-controlled 3-axis pipe profile-cutting system which can cut a master or branch pipe along the cutting path and simultaneously do a bevelling process.

For the purpose of supporting Curved Blocks, pipe welding is commonly used on Curved panel. Typically, when it comes to attaching supporting pipe on heavy incurvated surface, it makes much loss in the process of design, cutting, welding. This paper gives proper methods to collecting problems and Core conflicts surrounding Support Pipe by using of TOC (Theory Of Constraints). Therefore drawing two solutions, pipe development program and NC generating from pipe development Data for Plate Cutting machine. It describes a process of erasing loss surrounding Support Pipe with "TOC Thinking process" and development of two programs in this paper.

SKD11 is one of the most difficult workpiece for machining, so it is necessary to evaluate the machining characteristics of SKD11. The workpiece was made to be the pipe form and heat-treated to HRC45. In this paper, the orthogonal cutting experiment of this material was carried out with TiAlN coated WC cutting tool of 4 kinds of rake angle. After cutting experiment, cutting characteristics of SKD11 were investigated according to variation of cutting speed, feedrate and rake angle.

Heat transfer and flow characteristics in a pipe in which the rotating cutting tool for boring a underground pipe without digging were considered in this study. The amount of heat generation due to the friction between the rotating cutter and pipe wall, mixing (low of air and water injected to cool down are the two important factors to design the boring machine Computational fluid dynamics analysis using the Eulerian mixture model and the standard $\kappa-\varepsilon$ turbulence model was used to analyze the complex phenomena in a pipe during the process. Results show that pipe wall temperature decreased with increasing the cooling water inlet velocity. it is also shown that pipe wail temperature was lowered when the cutter rotation speed was increased until 600 rpm. There was no further cooling effect over 600 rpm.

The purpose of this investigation is experimentally to clarify the machinability and tool wear of STS 304 steel pipe material for piping. In order to determine the effects of cutting parameters and tool wear on thrust, torque, AE RMS, drilling is conducted on CNC milling machine. In this experiment, it is measured that thrust, torque, tool wear length, tool wear area and AE RMS during drilling using Hss tool. It has been found that a) During the drilling, the thrust and the torque of the STS 304 pipe are received more the effect of the feed than the spindle speed and the thrust increase with the increase of feed, b) The value of the AE RMS is been larger the effect of the cutting speed than the feed rate, and the value of the AE RMS increase with the increase of spindle speed, c) It has been found that the suitable feed in feed condition of 0.03, 0.05, 0.1, 0.15mm/rev is below 0.05mm/rev, d) The value of the AE RMS was shown a characteristic of the jump value during it was a sudden inrcrease of the tool wear. The increased character of the AE RMS value can be known an effective factor of the tool wear detection, and e) It can be quantitatively evaluated the condition of the tool according to calculate a area of the drill wear image which is obtained by a vision system.

This paper presents new skill in tube-mill processing getting the increase in production efficiency and quality in response to the recent request of high grade pipe. In this study, researchers developed the method to improve the precision of pipe and tool life in tube-mill processing. Optimum tool shape is devised by analyzing various simulation and mechanism in cutting process. In order to verify the confidence of the proposed machining technology, it is applied to the real processing machinery in the field.

During the cut and dismantling process of HANARO irradiated instrumented capsule(03M-06U), a little different phenomenon like a jamming was observed and occurred. So to release jamming between outer pipe and inner thermal media, the outer pipe will be cut piece by piece by capsule cutting machine installed in M2 hot cell until the outer pipe was eliminated or reduced as we could. It is assumed that this kind of problem was occurred following reasons: 1) This capsule has probably a problem during manufacturing process at shop before irradiation. 2) The gap between outer pipe and thermal media is not enough to meet design criteria for thermal expansion during irradiation at HANARO
