Ultra-precision machining was carried out on a electroless nickel materials using single crystal diamond tools. The effects of the cutting velocity, the tool length, the tool nose radius, the feed rate and depth of cut on the surface roughness were studied. In this paper, the cutting condition for getting nano order smooth surface of electroless nickel have been examined experimentally by the ultra-precision machine and single crystal diamond tools. And also. the surface roughness was measured by the three dimension

This paper presents the construction of an ultra-precision machining system and machining experiments using the developed system. The system is composed of air bearing system, granite bed, air pad, and linear feeding mechanism. The cutting conditions have great effect on the surface quality in ultra-precision machining. the ultra-precision machining is mainly processed by several ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ depth of cut and feed rate. For this, tools with sharper cutting edge and less tool wear are needed. To satisfy these requirement, diamond is generally used as a tool material for ultra-precision machining. In order to evaluate the cutting characteristics of the PCD and MCD tools on the aluminum alloy, the machining experiments performed using the developed system.

In this paper, optimal cutting condition to minimize the form error in side wall machining with a flat end mill is studied. Cutting forces and tool deflection are calculated considering surface shape generated by the previous cutting such as roughing. Using the form error prediction method from tool deflection, optimal cutting condition considering form accuracy is investigated. Also, the effects of tool teeth number, tool geometry and cutting conditions on form error are analyzed. The characteristics and the difference of generated surface shape in up and down milling are discussed and over-cut free condition in up milling is presented. Form error reduction method through successive up and down milling is also suggested. The effectiveness and usefulness of the presented method are verified from a series of cutting experiments under various cutting conditions. It is confirmed that form error prediction from tool deflection in side wall machining can be used in optimal cutting condition selection and real time surface error simulation for CAD/CAM systems. This study also contributes to cutting process optimization for the improvement of form accuracy especially in precision die and mold manufacturing.

Conventional cutting(CC) and Ultrasonic Vibration Cutting(UVC) of 20[KHz] are practised with standard lathe for fine ceramics(A1$_{2}$O$_{3}$. UVC is suggested to good cutting method for difficult-to-machine-materials and it is known to excellent cutting method to super precision cutting and elevation of productibility for general, nonferrous matals. In this research, main results to be obtained are as follows: 1. From the CC and UVC results by general lathe with sintering diamond tool, the surface roughness and roundness are improved in UVC. Also tool life is longer in UVC than CC. From the observation of machined surface, it is found that brittle fracutural material remove occured in fine ceramics cutting. 2. It is verified that the thrust force is the biggest in fine ceramics cutting, principal force is the next, and feed rate force the third and it is appear a little, on the other hand the principal force is the biggest in metal cutting, feed rate frece is the second, and thrust force is the next.

Abrasive waterjet (AWJ) cutting is an emerging technology for precision cutting of difficult-to-machining materials with the distinct advantages of no thermal effect, high machinability, high flexibility and small cutting forces. This paper investigated theoretical and experimental cutting characteristics associated with abrasive waterjet cutting of quartz GE214. It is shown that the proper variations of several cutting parameters such as waterjet pressure, cutting speed and cutting depth improve the roughness on workpiece surfaces produced by AWJ cutting. From the experimental results by AWJ cutting of quartz GE214, the optimal cutting conditions to improve the surface roughness were proposed and discussed.

A new cutting parameter is defined in the spherical part of ball end-mill cutter. A series of slot cutting experiments were carried out to obtain the cutting parameter. The cutter contact area is expressed as the grid posiotion in the cutting plane using Z map. The cutting forces in each grid are calculated and saved as force map, prior to the average cutting forces calculation. The cutting force, in the arbitrary cutting area, can be easily calculated by summing up the cutting forces of the engaged grid in the force map. This model was verified in the inclined surface cutting by cutting test of a cylindrical part.

In this study, the effect of tool rake angles and the change of cutting conditions on specific cutting pressure in face milling is investigated. The cutting force in face milling is predicted from the double cutting edge model in 3-dimensional cutting. Conventional specific cutting pressure model is modified by considering the variation of tool rake angles. Effectiveness of the modified cutting force model is verified by the experiments using special face milling cutters with different cutter pockets and various rake angles. From the comparison of the pressented model and the specific cutting pressure, it is shown that the axial force can be predicted by the tangential and redial forces without the knowledge of friction angle and shear angle. Also, the relation between specific cutting pressure and cutting cindition including feedrate, cutting velocity and depth of cut is studied.

The detection of cutting tool states in machining is important for the automation. The information of cutting tool states in metal cutting process is uncertain. Hence a industry needs the system which can detect the cutting tool states in real time and control the feed motion. Cutting signal features must be sifted before the classification. In this paper the Fisher's linear discriminant function was applied to the pattern recognition of the cutting tool states successfully. Cutting conditions and cutting force para- meters have shown to be sensitive to tool states, so these cutting conditions and cutting force paramenters can be used as features for tool state detection.

In this paper, We have analyzed dynamic characteristics of cutting force. Test materials are used in the tempered carbon steek and non-tempered carbon steel. The obtained results ase as follows: 1. Cutting force is smaller non-tempered carbon steel than tempered carbon steel when feed speed make a change. 2. Specific cutting force is smaller non-tempered carbon steel than tempered caron steel when cutting depth make a change

This paper presents an effective cutting force model that enable us to predict the instantaneous cutting force in face milling from a knowledge of the work material properties and cutting conditions. The development of the model is based on the orthogonal machining theory with the effective rake angle which is defined in the plane containing the cutting velocity and chip flow vectors. Face milling testes are performed at different feeds and, a fairly good agreement is shown between the predicted cutting forces and test results.
