This study compared and analyzed manual tapping and automatic tapping regarding tapping process characteristics of titanium hard-to-cut-material. Tapping process characteristics of titanium hard-to-cut-material are evaluated as the quality of a screw, wear of a tap, economic analysis, and cycle time etc. The type of screw threads after manual tapping is formed as an irregular type of screw threads, and perfect screw threads are created after automatic tapping. In addition, the chip type after manual tapping process is formed as the discontinuous chip due to work hardening, and the powder type of chip after automatic tapping process is created. In terms of cycle time, an automatic tapping process is shortened by 70% compared to manual tapping process. Insert tip wear of an automatic tapping shown in the process of 5-hole tapping is not found, but hand tap wear for finish cutting is most severe.

In order to analytically predict tapping torque and thrust force in high speed tapping, a cutting model for main cutting edge with a uniformly restricted tool-chip contact area were developed. From this model equations are derived for the prediction of tapping torque given the cutting conditions, tap geometry, and an empirical factor which is related to the workmaterial. Computed values of torque is shown to compare favorably with those obtained from tapping tests on 16MnCr5. The applied torque about the cutting edge of teeth at lead chamfer is estimated respectively and it is shown that observed value is gradually decreased with following teeth.

The tapping is machining process that makes a female screw on the parts to be assembly together. It is used for the high-speed tapping machine with synchronizing function for the high productivity. This paper describes the development of the ultra high-speed tapping machine with 10,000rpm. The key factors in the tapping speed are the acceleration/deceleration velocity and the synchronizing errors between the spindle motor and feeding motor. To minimizing acceleration/deceleration time, the low inertia spindle with synchronous built-in servo motor is developed. To minimizing synchronizing errors, the tapping cycle algorithm under open architecture CNC environment is optimized. The developed tapping machine has 0.13sec/10,000rpm in acceleration/deceleration time and the synchronizing error below 4.0%. It has 0.55sec for cycle time of one female screw, M3 tap, 2 times depth of tap diameter.

Tapping is a machining process that makes a female screw on parts to be assembly together. Recently, as the number of small and compact products increases the radius of tap as small as 1 mm is not unusual and more accurate tapping is needed. In complying with those needs, some high-speed tapping machines with synchronizing function have been developed. This paper describes the development of an ultra high-speed tapping machine up to 10,000rpm. The key factors in the tapping speed are the acceleration/deceleration and the synchronizing errors between spindle motor and fred motor. To minimize the acceleration/deceleration time, a low inertia spindle with a synchronous built-in servo motor was developed. To minimize the synchronizing errors, the tapping cycle algorithm was optimized on an open architecture CNC. The developed tapping machine has the acceleration/deceleration time of 0.13sec/10,000rpm for rigid tapping and the synchronizing error below 4.4%. The cycle time for tapping a female screw of M3 and depth 2 times diameter was 0.55sec.

For safety and economy reasons, hazardous waste including radioactive waste is desired to be converted into stable waste forms with a maximum volume reduction. High temperature melting technology using a plasma torch system can effectively treat even the non-flammable waste as desired. By far, one of the most difficult process for melting the non-flammable waste is a tapping of melts because the melting point of a residual slag in the tapping hole is high and because the viscosity of the melt increases sharply when tapping out. In case of a stationary furnace with a slant tapping port on the side of furnace, a certain amount of melts is left in the tapping hole after tapping out. Because of this, at every end of a melting cycle, the tapping hole needs to be opened by tapping device. The developed tapping device of melts based on both a guide electrode and auxiliary electrode is adequate for the application to discharge of melts except that the consumption of the guide electrode is somewhat faster than expected. Melt is collected in the water cooled vessel.

In terms of productivity, the speed of machining process has been increasing in most of engineering part. But the tapping process does not reach at enough level compared with other machining processes because of its complicate cutting mechanism. In the high speed tapping process, the one of important elements is tool monitoring system to prevent tool breakage. This paper describes tool monitoring system by acoustic emission(AE) in the tapping process. We used 2 types of AE sensors in this test. The one is commercial sensor which is used in other machining monitoring system like polishing and the other is a self-fabricated sensor for this test. In this test we purpose to find out the frequency of AE signal in tapping process and verify the possibility of applying AE sensor in in-process tapping monitoring system. Also grasp of characteristic of tapping process by AE signal is handled.

The tapping test has simplicity of procedure for detection of the damage in aircraft structure. However, the result of tapping test depends on the subjective experience of inspector. In this paper, more objective tapping test has proposed. The impact force histories and tapping sounds are used as reference data to evaluate the delamination. The WT(wavelet transform) is used to decompose the test data. From the results, we could know that high frequency components of force and sound are reduced due to delamination in composite laminate. On these results, the tapping force and sound caused by tapping could be used for the reference data to evaluate the delamination in composite structure.

Tapping is one of the most widely used machining operations. There are several methodes of producing external screw threads, e.g. turning, milling with single or multiple cutter, rolling, and grinding, but the methods available for cutting enternal threads are less numerous, and for threads in small holes, tapping is employed almost exclusively. In this study, the tap with the various geometry has been developed in order to tap special workmaterial at considerably higher cutting speed than that of the conventional HSS tap. The experimental tests are run with various cutting speed by using a piezo type tool dynamometer to measure tapping torque. Tapping torque is affected by the design of the tap, which seems to be due to internal friction and shearing of the metal. It is clarified that the process of chip formation strongly depends on rake angle, relief angle, angle of twist.

Synchronizing errors between the spindle motor and the z-axis motor directly influences the cutting characteristics and the thread quality in tapping, because the tapping process is accomplished by synchronizing the movement of the z-axis with the revolutionary spindle motion. Generally synchronizing errors are decided by tile parameters of the servo system and commanded velocity. The excessive synchronizing errors which are induced by the parameter mismatch and high cutting velocity can cause tap breakage due to the abrupt increase of cutting torque or damage the thread accuracy by overcutting the already cut threads. In this paper, the influences of the synchronizing errors on the tapping characteristics in the ultra high-speed tapping will be described and a minimum level of synchronizing errors necessary to maintain the quality of the cut thread will be presented.

이 연구의 목적은 교정용 고정원으로 사용된 self-drilling과 self-tapping microscrew implants를 조직학적 및 생역적으로 비교하는 것이다. 28 마리의 가토에 112개의 microscrew implants (56개의 self-drilling microscrew implants 와 56개의 self-tapping microscrew implants)를 식립하였다. Self-tapping microscrew implants는 0.9 mm 드릴로서 홈을 형성한 후 식립하였고 self-drilling microscrew implants는 홈을 형성하지 않고 바로 식립하였다. 교정력은 식립 직후 바로 NiTi coil spring을 연결하여 가하였으며 일부는 교정력을 가하지 않았고 일부는 100 gm정도의 약한 교정력을 일부는 200 gm정도의 강한 교정력을 가하였다. 실험동물은 3주 혹은 5주에 희생하였으며 72개의 비탈회 표본을 만들어 전반적인 조직학적 관찰과 조직 계측을 시행하였다. 토크 게이지로 최대 식립 토크와 최대 제거 토크를 측정하였다. 모든 microscrew implants는 실험기간 동안 안정되게 유지되었고 최대 제거 토크의 측정에는 self-drilling과 self-tapping microscrew implants 사이에 통계학적으로 유이한 차이가 없었다. 조직 관찰에서 self-tapping microscrew implants에서 골 임프란트 계면에 골결손이 더 많았고 5주에서는 새로이 형성된 미성숙 골이 더 많았다. Self-drilling microscrew implants에서 골표면 혹은 골내막으로의 골 형성이 많이 관찰되었으나 5주에서는 흡수되는 양상을 보였다. 3주에서는 self-drilling microscrew implants가 더 많은 골접촉을 보였으나 5주에서는 두 군사이에 차이가 관찰되지 않았다. 이 결과는 두 방법이 모두 microscrew implant의 식립에 사용될 수 있음을 시사하나 self-tapping microscrew implants의 경우 초기에는 약한 힘을 가하는 것이 좋을 것으로 생각된다.
