With the increased utilization of CAM programs, end-mill processing is most commonly used for machining and metal processing. In particular, hole or shaft machining has high assembly precision, which inevitably leads to high utilization of end mills. However, the analysis of quality characteristics according to the process conditions of end mills is not performed systematically at the site, causing poor quality and productivity. The most influential factor of quality is the runout of the end mill. In this paper, the number of turns of the end mill, number of tool blades, cutting direction, and artificial runout volume were determined to identify the correlation between the epicenter, cylindricality, and surface roughness. Two types of end mills, three levels of runout, three levels of rotational speed, and two cutting directions were considered and 36 rounds of hole processing were conducted. For the analysis of shape characteristics according to the set process variables, the experimental planning method was applied to the measured specimen and the processing characteristics were analyzed according to the runout of the end mill through correlation analysis.

Jeju Island, the heaviest raining area in Korea, is a volcanic Island located at the southernmost of Korea, but most streams are of the dry due to its hydrological/geological characteristics different from those of inland areas. Therefore, there are limitations in applying the results from the mainland to the studies on stream run-off characteristics analysis and water resource analysis of Jeju Island. In this study, the SWAT(soil & water assessment tool) model is used for the Hwabuk stream watershed located east of the downtown to calculate the long-term stream run-off rate, and WMS(watershed modeling system) and HEC-HMS(hydrologic modeling system) models are used to figure out the stream run-off characteristics due to short-term heavy rainfall. As the result of SWAT modelling for the long-term rainfall-runoff model for Hwabuk stream watershed in 2008, 5.66% of the average precipitation of the entire basin was run off, with 3.47% in 2009, 8.12% in 2010, and root mean square error(RMSE) and determination coefficient($R^2$) was 496.9 and 0.87, respectively, with model efficient(ME) of 0.72. From the results of WMS and HEC-HMS models which are short-term rainfall-runoff models, unless there was a preceding rainfall, the runoff occurred only for rainfall of 40mm or greater, and the run-off duration averaged 10~14 hours.

Machining quality has been improved with the development of cutting tools. However, it is difficult to obtain a high degree of quality in machining a deep pocket with a long end mill, since machining accuracy is mainly dependent on the stiffness of the cutting tool and tool holder. To improve machining quality in machining a deep pocket using an end mill, the performance by cutting condition compare with others. Owing to this problem, it is necessary to select suitable tool and holder in the deep pocket machining. In this study, the hydraulic holder for the high speed machining is introduced and the performance of that is compared with others according to cutting conditions. The cutting parameters involved were; slenderness ratio in the range of 3 to 6 (L/D), radial depth of cut from 0.01 to 0.05 mm. Cutting force and surface roughness, precision of form were observed during the experiment to investigate cutting state.

A major problem in automation of turning operations is the difficulty in obtaining a sufficient and reliable chip control. Therefore it becomes desirable to find a method which can detect the chip form. Newly born chips in usual metal cutting radiate infrared rays. When such chips run out of cutting point quickly, the radiated energy from the zone around the tool is low compared with that of the case when long tangled chips are staying around the tool. The difference in chip pattern can be detected from the output of pyrometer. But, strictly speaking, only the output of pyrometer does not identify the chip form because that is the removal of chip. Therefore, in this paper, a method of the identification of chip form using output of pyrometer and fuzzy inference is developed.

This paper describes ultrasonically assisted grinding used to obtain a glossy surface quickly and precisely. High-quality surfaces are required for plastic injection molding dies used in the production of plastic parts such as dials for cellular phones. Traditionally, in order to finish the dies, manual polishing by a skilled worker has been required after the machining processes, such as electro discharge machining (EDM), which leaves an affected layer, and milling, which leaves tooling marks. However, manual polishing causes detrimental geometrical deviations of the die and consumes several days to finish a die surface. Therefore, a machining process for finishing dies without manual polishing to improve the surface roughness and form accuracy would be extremely valuable. In this study, a 3D positioning machine equipped with an ultrasonic spindle was used to conduct grinding experiments. An electroplated diamond tool was used for these experiments. Generally, diamond tools cannot grind steel because of excessive wear as a result of carbon atoms diffusing into bulk steel and chips. However, ultrasonically assisted grinding can achieve a fine surface (roughness Rz of $0.4{\mu}m$) on die steel without severe tool wear. The final aim of this study is to realize mirror surface grinding for injection molding dies without manual polishing. To do this, it is necessary to fabricate an electroplated diamond tool with high form accuracy and low run-out. This paper describes a tool-making method for high precision grinding and the grinding performance of a self-electroplated tool. The ground surface textures, tool performance and tool life were investigated A ground surface roughness Rz of 0.14 um was achieved Our results show that the spindle speed, feed rate and cross feed affected the surface texture. One tool could finish $5000mm^2$ of die steel surface without any deterioration of the ground surface roughness.

Recently, the requirements for high precision and efficiency machining are gradually increased to raise international competitiveness at the industrial fields of die and molds. This trend had made effects on the industrial fields in Korea and which needs fur studying of high precision and efficiency machining. This study is to investigate the effects of the non-out of end mill in the external cylindrical machining operated by solid carbide end mills with Al-alloy in high speed machining center relating to high spindle revolution and frost fred per minute on the dimensional precision, roundness of workpiece. From the results of experimentations followings are obtained; when Al-alloy is processed by the external cylindrical cutting of end milling through the high speed revolution, if the spindle revolution is higher relating to radial depth of cut, feed per tooth in very lower situation, finally, productivity can be raised because high precision and quality products are machined high efficiently.

The control chart is widely used statistical process control(SPC) tool that searches for assignable cause of variation and detects any change of process. Generally, ${\bar{X}}-R$ control chart and ${\bar{X}}-S$ are most frequently used. When the production run is short and process parameter changes frequently, it is difficult to monitor the process using traditional control charts. In such a case, the coefficient of variation (CV) is very useful for monitoring the process variability. The CV control chart is an effective tool to control the mean and variability of process simultaneously. The CV control chart, however, is not sensitive at small shift in the magnitude of CV. In this paper, we propose an CV-EWMA (exponentially weighted moving average) control chart which is effective in detecting a small shift of CV. Since the CV-EWMA control chart scheme can be viewed as a weighted average of all past and current CV values, it is very sensitive to small change of mean and variability of the process. We suggest the values of design parameters and show the results of the performance study of CV-EWMA control chart by the use of average run length (ARL). When we compared the performance of CV-EWMA control chart with that of the CV control chart, we found that the CV-EWMA control chart gives longer in-control ARL and much shorter out-of-control ARL.

Machine tools usually consume more energy in cooling systems than in spindle motors. This is largely because circulation pumps in the cooling systems are continuously powered to measure the temperature of spindle motors. In this paper, energy saving algorithms are proposed, which modify this behavior of the circulation pumps in such a way that the circulation pumps run only when it is likely that the information on the temperature is critical to bang-bang control of compressors in cooling systems. A mathematical model is established that explains heat transfer phenomena near the spindle motors. The power consumptions are measured for individual components in a machine tool, and the parameters that appear in the mathematical model are estimated. Computer simulations are performed with the estimated parameters, and the results are compared with the experimental ones. It turns out that a large amount of energy can be saved by using the proposed method.
