Plasma nitrocarburizing and plasma oxidizing treatments were performed to improve the wear and corrosion resistance of SKD 11 steel. Plasma nitrocarburizing was conducted for 12 h at $520^{\circ}C$ in the nitrogen, hydrogen and methane atmosphere to produce the $\varepsilon-Fe_{2-3}(N,C)$ phase. It was found that the compound layer produced by plasma nitrocarburising was predominantly composed of $\varepsilon-phase$, with a small proportion of $\gamma'-Fe_4(N,C)$ phase. The thickness of the compound layer was about $5{\mu}m$ and the diffusion layer was about $150{\mu}m$ in thickness, respectively. Plasma post oxidation was performed on the nitrocarburized samples with various oxygen/hydrogen ratio at constant temperature of $500^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour. The very thin magnetite($Fe_3O_4$) layer $1-2{\mu}m$ in thickness on top of the compound layer was obtained by plasma post oxidation. It was confirmed that the corrosion characteristics of the nitrocarburized compound layer could be further improved by the application of the superficial magnetite layer.

DLC film was synthesized on plastic injection mold(SKD11, $30\;mm\;{\times}\;19\;mm\;{\times}\;0.5\;mm$) and Si(100) wafer for 2 h at $130^{\circ}C$ under 6 mTorr using hybrid method of rf sputtering and ion source. The obtained film was analysed by Raman spectroscopy, AFM, TEM, Nano indenter and scratch tester, etc. The film was defined as an amorphous phase. In the Raman spectrum, broad peak of $sp^2$-bonded carbon attributed to graphite at $1550\;cm^{-1}$ were observed, and the ratio of ID($sp^3$ diamond intensity)/IG($sp^2$ graphite intensity) was approximately 0.54. The adhesion of DLC film was more than 80 N with scratch tester when $0.2\;{\mu}m$ thickness Cr was coated as interlayer. The micro-hardness was distributed at 35~37 GPa. The friction coefficient was 0.02~0.07, and surface roughness(Ra) was 0.34~1.64 nm. The lifetime of DLC coated plastic injection mold using as a connector part in computer was more than 2 times of non-coated mold.

The diagnostic multileaf collimator(MLC) was designed for patient dose reduction in diagnostic radiography We used monte carlo simulation code (MCNPX, LANL, USA) to evaluate efficiency of shielding material for making diagnostic MLC as preliminary study. The diagnostic radiography unit was designed using SRS-78 program according to tube voltage (80,100,120 kVp) and acquired energy spectrums. The shielding material was SKD11 alloy tool steel that is composed of 1.6% carbon(C), 0.4% silicon(Si), 0.6% manganese (Mn), 5% chromium (Cr), 1% molybdenum(Mo) and vanadium(V). The density of it was $7.89g/cm^3$.Using tally card 6, we calculated the shielding efficiency of MLC according to tube voltage. The results was that 98.3% (80 kVp), 95.7 %(100 kVp), 93.6% (120 kVp). We certified efficiency of diagnostic MLC fabricated from SKD11 alloy steel by monte calro simulation. Based on the results, we designed the diagnostic MLC and will develop the diagnostic MLC for reduction of patient dose in diagnostic radiography.

Evaluation of cutting condition is one of the most important aspect to improve productivity and quality. In this study, the wear and cutting characteristics(cutting force, acoustic emission signal and surface roughness) of ceramic cutting tool for hardened die material(SKD11) were investigated by experiment. Flank wear on relief face of tool was occurred more dominant than crater wear on rake face. Experiments were performed under the various cutting condition.

본 논문에서는 고속가공 시 필랫(코너-R) 엔드밀의 곡면가공 적용가능 여부를 연구하기 위하여 비교적 곡률이 완만한 곡면을 채택하여 가공실험을 수행하고 고 결과를 분석하였다. 가공재료는 금형의 재료로 많이 사용되는 SKD11 강을 선택하였다. 볼엔드밀과 필렛엔드밀의 비교를 위하여 2 종류의 공구에 동일한 가공조건으로 가공실험 하였다. 가공 중 측정된 절삭력과 가공면의 표면조도를 분석하여 일반적으로 황삭에서 주로 사용되던 필렛엔드밀을 곡률이 완만한 곡면의 정삭에 적용하였을 경우의 절삭특성과 볼엔드밀의 가공특성을 비교하였다.(중략)

Thin films of CrAlSiN were deposited on SKD11 tool steel substrate using Cr and AlSi cathodes by a cathodic arc plasma deposition system. The influence of process parameters on the deposited film properties were investigated. The oxidation characteristics of the films were studied at temperatures ranging from 800 and 1000+C up to 50 h in air. The films showed superhardness and good oxidation resistance..

독립된 티타늄(Ti)과 실리콘(Si) 타켓을 사용하여 DC reactive magnetron co-sputtering 공 정으로 Ti-Si-N 코탱막을 SKD 11 합금강위에 합성하였다. 고분해능 TEM 및 XPS 분석들로부터 Ti-Si-N 코탱막은 나노미터 크기의 TiN결정체들이 비정질 Si3N4 기지에 분산된 나노복합체의 마세구조를 냐타내었다. 코탱막의 경도는 11 at.%의 Si 함량에서 39 GPa의 최 고 경도값을 나타내었고 이 경우 미셰조직은 5nm 크기의 미세한 TiN 결정이 비정절상의 기지에 균일하게 분포된 특성을 보였다 .. Ti-Si-N 박막내에 Si 함량이 증가할수록 TiN 결정 상들은 다배향성을 나타내었고 크기가 감소하였으며 비정질상에 의해 완전히 둘려싸언 형상 으로 변화하였다. 높은 Si 함량에서는 질소 소스의 부족현상에 의하여 코팅막내에서 free Si 가 나타났다. 상대습도가 증가함에 따라 Ti-Si-N 코탱막의 마찰계수와 마모량이 현저하게 감소하였다. 강재에 대한 Ti-Si-N 코팅막의 마모거동에 있어서 Si02 냐 Si(OH)2 같은 얇은 윤활막의 형성이 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 판단되어졌다.

The experimental study of die-sinking electrical discharge machining(EDM) was conducted for Cold Die Alloy Steel of SKD-11 with rotary electrode according to the peak current of 11A, 15A and 19A, and the duty factor of 0.24, 0.45. dielectric fluid flow through the electrode inside according to the change of electrode internal diameter during the EDM working. Material removal rate(MRR) was increased with flushing & rotation of electrode at the condition for the peak current of 15A, 19a but the MRR is decreased at the flushing only. The more surface roughness was obtained for the case of the flushing & rotation under the peak current of 19A.

In this paper, factors affecting accuracy or grade of forged bevel gears are investigated in the experimental way. Two materials of SKD-11 and copper. two machining conditions and two machines of WIA-V50 and Roders-RFM600 are particularly investigated to reveal their effects on the grade of bevel gear forging dies in this study. It has been shown that the bevel gear grades are much affected by all the factors tested, revealing that it is of great significance to find the optimal machining process of die making to develop or manufacture a high precision bevel gear and that the bevel gear is degraded by one from the grade of its related die during forging.

This study analyzed the damage to a slitting knife after cutting steel sheets. Damages to the structure were observed and wear tests were conducted. In addition, the degradation on the damaged and undamaged parts was compared with a micro Vickers hardness test. Weibull statistical analysis was carried out in order to evaluate the reliability of the micro Vickers hardness measured data. Spalling of the edge portion occurred by degradation during use over a long period. Rough parts in the specimens were caused by damage because the slitting knife was used for 1 year. The friction coefficient and wear loss at the damaged parts of the knife edge were slightly larger from shock due to repetitive cutting operation. The micro Vickers hardness followed a two-parameter Weibull probability distribution.
