Recently, the high-tech industries, such as aerospace industry, auto industry, and electronics industry, are growing up considerably. Because of that, high machining accuracy and productivity of precision parts have been required. The tooling system is important part in the machining center. HSK tooling system is more suitable than BT tooling system for that of high speed machining center. It is because static stiffness and machining accuracy of HSK tooling system are higher than those of BT tooling system. In this paper, stress distribution characteristics of the HSK tooling System is analyzed according to the spindle speed. In order that, the mechanism and the force amplification principle of HSK tooling system are analyzed. The HSK tooling system is modelled by using a 3D modeling/design program. Then stress distribution characteristics of HSK tooling system are analyzed according to spindle speed by using the finite element analysis.

The speed at which products are developed and released to market is tightly linked to profitability and market share. Hence, many companies are still in a desperate need of real Rapid Tooling (RT) technologies which can really help to expedite their prototype tooling and pre -production tooling for injection molding. Many other companies that have been very skeptical of RT technologies developed so far are working on Hybrid Tooling (HT) that can really meet the market standards. With the conviction that HT can be a reliable alternative for current RT technologies, this paper describes the experimentation how HT process has been being successfully established and effectively applied with typical case studies. Through the experimentation, Ceramic-filled SLA tooling was found to be aptly suited for the low grade mold, and Metal SLS tooling was found to be aptly suited for the medium volume mold both in terms of the lead time, dimensional accuracy, and tooling cost.

HSK tooling system is more suitable than BT tooling system for that of high speed machining center. It is because static stiffness and machining accuracy of HSK tooling system are higher than those of BT tooling system. In this paper, static and dynamic behavior of the HSK tooling System is analyzed according to bearing characteristics and lightweight parts. In order that, three different models of the HSK tooling system are modelled by using a 3D modeling/design program. More stable one in the models of HSK tooling system can be selected by using the FEA(Finite Element Analysis).

"Getting to market first" is extremely critical in this competitive business environment. The speed at which products are developed and released to market is tightly linked to profitability and market share.

This paper describes the experimentation how HT process has been being successfully established and effectively applied with typical case study.

This paper presents a general description of single and dual contact tooling systems, finite element analysis, and discussions on the application of the system to the 5-head router machine which is in particular for aerospace components. This study has been performed as part of the development of the new generation 5-head router machine which is designed for high productivity. Such high productivity in essence requires high speed rotation and multiple spindles in one machine. The high speed rotation may exceed a range in a conventional single contact tooling system. The conventional tooling system is reevaluated in comparison with the dual-contact system. Finite element analysis using simplified spindle models compares major differences in the two systems. Some problems in the application to the 5-head router machine are discussed.

The present work concerns rapid tooling technology based on three-dimensional CAD/CAM. Two types of tooling processes have been introduced : the quick delivery molding(QDM) process and the rapid tooling(RT) process using a rapid prototyping system. Both processes are based on three-dimensional CAD/CAM technology and realize a paperless manufacturing system with a high efficiency. The proposed approach has been applied to the product development for various electrical parts, and the final delivery has been reduced as compared with the traditional approach.

Industrial products are getting more and more complex. The number of parts or components and the variety of manufacturing processes are increasing. This leads to rapid product oriented machine tools. The process integrated CNC lathe is one of the these machine tools which can produce numerous parts and various machining processes and reduce the lead time and non-machining time. Therefore this study deals with the design technique of a process-intergated CNC lathe which can reduce the tact time and production cost by the speed-up of the tooling system and the high-speed machining oriented construction of 2 spindles and 2 turrets.

The efficient and economical use of an FMS presupposes a good capability : flexibility, reliability, maintainability and built-in quality assurance. One subsystem of an FMS, which often increases capability, is the tooling management. The main problems associated with tooling in an FMS are large variety of tools, many setups, insufficient use of presetted tools, tool condition control, tool shortages, errors in tooling data and maintainence. This paper presents a reseach on the development of a system which manages the tool data for the factory using NC turning machines. The tool information concerning each production stages of the industry is studied in the CIM(Computer Integrated Manufacturing) view point.
