In this study, the hot forging technology for precision forming of spline teeth of the inner race in the auto-transmission was developed in order to minimize its finishing allowance. Several blocker and finisher shapes for the precision hot forging process of the inner race were proposed and the forging processes were analyzed using the three-dimensional finite element method. The optimum hot forging process was obtained considering some parameters such as metal flow patterns, forging defects and forming load. Blocker and finisher dies for the hot forging process were designed by selecting the most suitable shapes obtained from the finite element analysis. Experimental works were also performed in order to verify the optimum design of hot forging process.

Die making process is classified into design,manufacturing,polishing,assembly, and performance test. Die polishing is not a machining process by cutting edge of tool, but it is finishing by relative cutting movement under the surface contact between grinding particles and workpiece, and this process comprised 30~40% of total manufacturing hours. However, die polishing process is still performed by the skilled workers. Now a days, it is very difficult to secure skilled workers due to the hardworking environment and this situation will be getting worse in the future which has great difficulty of dies and molds industries.This process has the common problem on the elimination of tedious manual polishing among the tool making industries. Therefore this study is aimed at the development of an automatic polishing attachment which could be attached onthe spindle of CNC machine tool and controlled by the NC program data created by CAD/CAM system. As a result, this study will contribute the realization of automatic fine polishing process and improvement of quality level of dies and molds.

An intelligent polishing robot automation system is developed. Automatic Tool Change System(A.T.C.), Tool Posture Angle Control, and Robot Program for Polishing Application are developed and integrated into a robotic system that consists of a robot, pneumatic finding tool, and finding abrasives (papers and special films). A.T.C. is specifically designed to exchange whole grinding tool set for complete unmanned operation. Tool Posture Angle Control is developed to give a certain skew angle rather than right angle to tools on the surface for best finishing results. A.T.C. and Tool Posture Angle Control is controlled by a PC and the robot controller. Also, there have been some considerations on enhancing the performance of the system. Some elastic material is inserted between the grinding pad and the holder for better grinding contact. The robot path data is generated automatically from the NC data of previous machining process.

In this study, fabrication of the large area silicon mirror is accomplished by anisotropic wet etching using micromachining technology for implementation of integrated slim optical pickup and the process condition is also established for improving the mirror surface roughness. Until now, few results have been reported about the production of highly stepped $9.74^{\circ}$ off-axis-cut silicon wafers using wet etching. In addition rough surface of the mirror is achieved in case of tong etching time. Hence a novel method called magnetorheolocal finishing is applied to enhance the surface quality of the mirror plane. Finally, areal peak to valley surface roughness of mirror plane is reduced about 100nm in large area of $mm^2$ and it is applicable to optical pickup using infrared wavelength.

Burr is an unavoidable and undesirable by-product of most metal cutting or shearing operations. This burr must be removed to improve the fit of machined parts and safety of workers, to improve the effectiveness of finishing operations. Despite the full or partial automation of FMC or FMS, deburring operations to obtain workpiece with fine surface quality are difficult to be automated since the occurrence and condition of burr are not constant. This study focused on developing a software for deburring automation, which includes automatic recognition of parts, generation of deburring tool path and NC code, by analyzing the IGES format file which contains information of part geometry. The successful performance of developed software was demonstrated by computer simulation and deburring experiment using miniature end brush. And, this research can provide a basis for further advanced studies for automated deburring applications.

진공챔버,위생튜브등 정밀한 내면을 필요로 하는 경우 표면거칠기를 향상시키기 위한 방법으로 전해가공 및 수작업을 하는 경우가 대부분인데 이는 가공비가 비씨고 다듬질 시간이 많이 걸리는 등 매우 비경제적이다. 더구나 길이가 긴 관이나 구부러진 관의 내면은 기계적으로 다듬질이 매우 어렵다. 그러나 최근에 개발된 전자기장을 이용한 자력 연마가공법은 기존의 기계적인 가공법과는 달리 실제 가공을 행하는 공구부와 ㅣㅇ를 구동하는 구동부 사이에 공극을 허용하기 때문에 이를 이용하여 회전이 불가능한 곡관의 내면다듬질을 가능하게 하였다. 지금까지 연구들은 단순히 전자석 및 전원으로 이루어진 수동가공 시스템으로서 가공공정 자체의 특성파악에 집중되어 왔으나 자력연마법의 장점중의 하나인 다듬질 공정의 자동화 가능성을 실현시키기 위해서는 공정의 제어가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 이를 실현시키기 위한 기초연구로서 컴퓨터구동 회전자력연마가공 시스템을 개발하고 그 기본특성을 알아보기 위해 유한요소법을 이용하여 원형 요오크 및 여섯개의 자극에 대해 자력선의 분포를 알아보았다. 또한 이로부터 가공영역의 자속밀도를 계산하고 다듬질 가공을 가능케 하기위한 회전자화의 발생방법에 대해 고찰하였다.

Burr is a projected part of finished workpiece. It is unavoidable and undesirable by-product of most metal cutting or shearing process. Also, it must be removed to improve the fit of machined parts, safety of workers, and the effectiveness of finishing operation. But deburring process is one of manufacturing processes that have net been successfully automated, so deburring automation is strongly needed. This paper focused on developing a basic algorithm to find edge of workpiece and match two different image data for deburring automation which includes automatic recognition of parts, generation of deburring tool paths and edge/corner finding ability by analyzing the DXF drawing file which contains information of part geometry. As an algorithm for corner finding, SUSAN method was chosen. It makes good performance in finding edge and corner in suitable time. And this paper suggested a simple algorithm to find matching point between CCD image and drawing file.

Grinding has been adapted as a finishing process,which can carry out form and surface integrity at the same time. Recently, high efficient and precise grinding technique is required bacause the needs for functional parts such as silicon wafer,ceramic,and electric materials are increasing. Accordingly, the development of grinding wheel appropriate to that purpose is very important. So, in this paper we newly developed a diamond grinding wheel by applying the superior characteristics of spheroidal graphite of the cast iron sintered product. Especially, a electric resistance sintering method was applied in which rapid heat treatment is possible. Finally, we have achieved successful results that the grinding wheel has high hardness,durability and grinding ability,and satisfies above conditions.

Abrasive jet machining(AJM) process is similar to the sand blasting, and effectively removes hard and brittle materials. AJM has applied to rough working such as deburring and rough finishing. As the needs for machining of ceramics, semiconductor, electronic devices and LCD are increasing, micro AJM was developed, and became the inevitable technique to micromachining. This paper describes the performance of the micro AJM in micro groove cutting of glass. Diameter of hole and width of line in this groove cutting is 80${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. Experimental results showed good performance in micro groove cutting in glass, but the size of machined groove was increased about 2~4${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. therefore, this micro AJM could be effectively applied to the micro machining of semiconductor, electronic devices and LCD parts.
