Micro/meso cutting is getting more important in the fields of precision machining technology. A micro-turning lathe is one of parts to consist the Micro Factory. It accepts stepwise motion actuators that are used for feeding system instead of the conventional mechanism. It is consisted of two Piezoelectric ceramics; one is for feeding the slider, and the other is for clamping the slider in the guide way of the body. The linearity and positional accuracy of the actuators are good enough for high precision motion. The spindle unit is operated with DC motor on the top of the slider. The motion is communicated with miniaturized linear encoder attached on each side of axis. A mono crystal diamond tool is used for cutting tool. This micro-lathe has been made a machining experiment to see the characteristics of micro-machining.

Morphological structure and sporogenesis of myxosporean parasite, Parvicapsula anisocaudata from cultured olive flounder, Paralichthys olivaceus were examined by light and transmission electron microscopies. Numerous round early stages, spindle-shaped disporic or monosporic pseudoplasmodia, asymmetrical thin-walled mature spores were found inthe lumen of renal tubule and urinary bladder. Long pseudopodia or short projections from cytoplasm of pseudoplasmodia make the parasite attach firmly to host tissues. Spore development was mono- or disporous with no pansporoblast formation. Sporoplasmic cell was partially surrounded by two capsulogenic cells, and capsulogenic cells were enveloped by two flattened valvogenic cells. Capsulogenesis and valvogenesis followed general patterns seen in that of other myxosporean.

DTM (Diamond Turning Machine) is using for ultra precision manufacturing such as, plastic lens die or aspherical optics. This study is on a design of precision 2-axis stage for DTM. We designed and manufactured a back lash free stage using different weights and measured the positioning accuracy using Interferometer. Also, the 2-D moving accuracy is measured using the high magnification CCD technique. Then, the stage is tested with the machining of spherical and aspherical lens in a DTM with air bearing spindle. It was shown that the back lash free stage is effective for improving the positioning accuracy. Also, positioning control errors in motion control board were able to be found using the proposed stages system.

In this paper, a general procedure to determine machine tool errors from the on-machine measurement (OMM) data is described. First, a parameterized error model of a machine tool is illustrated by approximating error components as linear function of axis positions, and a modified error model is proposed which includes backlash effects. To determine the unknown model coefficient vectors of the forward and backward error model, an artifact with 8 cutes is made and calibrated on CMM. Then, lower-left and upper-right cube corners are measured with a touch-trigger probe mounted on the machine tool spindle. Measured error data are used to determine the coefficient vectors. The positioning errors in the XY plane at the fixed z position are simulated for the forward and backward error model.

A self-compensated water-hydrostatic bearing has advantages in bearing stiffness. In this paper, the mechanism is applied to hydrostatic journal bearing for achieving the high bearing stiffness. The finite element method is applied to analyze the load characteristics of the self-compensated journal bearing. From the analyzed results, it is confirmed that though the self-compensated journal bearing has higher load capacity and stiffness than conventional fixed capillary journal bearing, the merit is decreased in the case of high eccentricity, that is, a spindle system with self-compensated journal bearing must be designed to have the load capacity large enough. For improving the practicality, a rectangular type capillary is introduced and discussed. Theoretically analyzed results show that it has more advantages than the conventional annular type capillary in the practical usage. The experimental verification on the analysis method is performed, and the experimental results show good agreement with theoretical results.

Lubrication has an important role to reduce frictional forces and temperature between cutting chips and the face of a tool. However, it has harmful effects to workers' health and working environment. The purpose of this thesis is to find cutting conditions through the quality analysis in boring for SM45C steel using MQL(Minimum Quantity Lubrication). Machining process is super drill, tip drill, end mill and boring in order. Experimental factors of boring and the quantity of mist air are properly selected. With the analysis of experimental data, this thesis shows that boring with MQL improves the surface roughness when spindle speed is 934rpm or feeding speed is 74mm/min.

Automatic tool changers(ATCs) store tools used in a machining center to its magazine and changes the tools automatically. Tools of machine centers are changed and then precisely equipped to spindle system by the ATC. Therefore, the stability and reliability of the ATC is very important. But, there is lack of development and evaluation on basic performance and vibration of the ATCs. So, in this study, a BT40 ATC test bench was developed to verify stability and reliability of BT40 ATCs.

Vehicle interior noise is the results of numerous sources of excitation. One source involving tire pavement interaction is the tire cavity resonance and the forcing it provides to the vehicle spindle. Using a simplified model for the tire acoustic cavity system only, we formulated finite element equation to predict the fundamental acoustic cavity resonant characteristics inside tire-wheel assembly of undeformed and deformed tire. Combining the finite element analysis with experimental verification, we explained the acoustic characteristics theoretically. Especially, we have shown that the difference between the first two resonant frequencies increases as the deformation of deformed tire increases.

Recent trends and the effect of mechanical vibrations in optical disk drives are reviewed in this paper. The Nation from CD drives to high density DVD drives and the development of writable optical disk drives require tighter mechanical tolerance. The demand for faster access time and higher data transfer rate also leads to critical mechanical problems to limit the tracking and focusing servo performance. The current mechanical issues to limit the performance of the drives and various technologies to overcome the mechanical problems are introduced. Vibrations of disk-spindle system, actuator and suspension designs of the optical pick-up, and general mechanical designs for the fast and stable access mechanism are considered.

This paper presents a nonlinear time series analysis technique for evaluating machine defect severity, based on the Recurrence Plot (RP) entropy. The RP entropy is calculated from the probability distribution of the diagonal line length in the recurrence plot, which graphically depicts a system's dynamics and provides a global picture of the autocorrelation in a time series over all available time-scales. Results of experimental studies conducted on a spindle-bearing test bed have demonstrated that, as the working condition of the bearing deteriorates due to the initiation and/or progression of structural damages, the frequency information contained in the vibration signal becomes increasingly complex, leading to the increase of the RP entropy. As a result, RP entropy can serve as an effective indicator for defect severity assessment of rolling bearings.
