Because of high specific stiffness, the aluminum alloy has been used for various industry field. Specially, the heat-treated aluminum alloy is difficult-to-machine material and machining test is necessary to evaluate and improve the machinability. In order to manufacture the functional part, appropriate cutting condition is selected by considering surface quality, machining time, and workpiece deflection by cutting force. In this investigation, the machinability of A16061-T6 is estimated by changing cutting conditions. The variable cutting conditions are cutting speed, depth of cutting, and feed rate. The estimation is done by analysis of cutting force, surface roughness, and surface shape according to the change of cutting conditions.

The application of titanium has been gradually rising because the utilizing ranges for low weight and high strength are rapidly increased by the need for improving the fuel economy in production industries such as the aviation and automotive in recent. The purpose in this study is to investigate the appropriate cutting conditions on the life of flat and round end mills by measuring the maximum cutting temperature relative to the machining time, and calculating the wear rates of cutting tool with the spindle speed and feed rate of vertical machining center as a parameter in the titanium roughing cut machining which is widely used in critical parts of aircraft, cars, etc. When the wetted roughing cut machining of titanium with a soluble cutting oil is conducted by the flat and round end mills, the maximum cutting temperatures for a variety of spindle speed and feed rate are measured at ten-minute intervals during 60 minutes by an infrared thermometer, and the wear rates of cutting tool are calculated by the weight ratios based on tool wear before and after the experiment. It is found that the maximum cutting temperature and the wear rates of cutting tool are raised as the cutting amount per tool edge is increased with the rise of feed rate, in this experimental range, and as the frictional area due to the rise of contacting friction numbers between tool and specimen is increased with the rises of cutting time and spindle speed. In addition, the increasing rate of maximum cutting temperature in the flat and round end mills are the highest for the cutting time from 50 to 60 minutes, and the wear rate of cutting tool in the flat end mill is 1.14 to 1.55 times higher than that in the round end mill for all experimental conditions.

In this research, the effects for surface Improvement of plasma ion implanted carbide endmill tools were observed by measuring cutting forces and tools wear affecting surface roughness in high speed cutting. From the 2nd ion mass analysis, the oxidation layer was found to be built up by sputtering. The residual gas contamination of oxygen was found to be contained impurities in nitrogen gas. The plasma implanted ion was found to be spreaded, especially the nitrogen was implanted up to 150nm depth as impressed voltage and ion implanting time. It is analyzed as bring surface improvement by spreading deeply forming oxidation on surface. The factors in Analysis of Variance(ANOVA) about mutuality cause reference of cutting force. The cutting force Fx is affected by the interaction of spindle rpm and federate, the cutting force Fy is influenced by spindle rpm and time injected ion, and cutting force Fz is affected by the interaction of impressed voltage and feedrate. Also, it was found that the cutting forces of implanted tools become lower and the surface roughness is improved by the effect of nitrogen according to the implantation.

Productivity improvement and cost reduction in the aircraft industry have become major industrial objectives, and improving productivity by reducing machining time has become a key focus. When numerical cutting code is created by CAM software, such as CATIA or UG-NX, it is impossible to control machining feed speed using cutting force changes depending on the machining tool path. However, machining an aircraft engine part from difficult material, such as Inconel 718, takes a long time, and tool chipping or breakage often occurs from forcing the machining path too quickly. This study investigated and verified the reliability of the AdvantEdge production module (PM)using cutting power tests. In particular, diffuser and diffuser case parts were considered, comparing cutting power and machining time using AdvantEdge PM and CATIA.

Chattering in cutting operations are usually a cumbersome part of the manufacturing process in mechanical. Particular, machining performance such as that of the boring process is limited by cutting condition at the movable components. Among various sources of chatter vibration, detrimental point in cutting condition is found a mechanical condition on overhang. It limits cutting speed, depth, surface roughness and tool wear failure as result because the all properties are varying with the metal removal process. In this case, we have to observe the resonance frequencies of a boring bar for continuous cutting. In the established research, boring bar vibration of cutting system has been measured with the aid of accelerometer. However, the inherent parameters of internal turning operations are severely limit for the real time monitoring on accelerometers. At this point, this paper is proposed other method for real time monitoring during continuous cutting with optical fiber at the inside of boring bar. This method has been used a plastic fiber in the special jig on boring bar by based on experimental modal analysis. In this study, improvement of monitoring system on continuous internal cutting was attempted using optical fiber sensor of inside type because usually chattering is investigated experimentally measuring the variation in chip thickness. It is demonstrated that the optical fiber sensor is possibility to measure of chattering with real time in boring process.

This experiment was carried out to establish cutting propagation method of dendropanax morbifera $L_{EV}\$. at Wando in Chonnam, native area. The hardwood cutting and the greenwood cutting were able to be used as propagation method, but callus formation and rooting ratio in the greenwood cutting were higher than in hardwood cutting. The optimum cutting time was February to middle of March in hardwood cutting and July to August in greenwood cutting. The earthen-ball cutting method was better than normal cutting method in callus formation and rooting ratio. The rooting in different bed soils was the best at sand-loam soil. The application of IBA 100ppm promoted rooting.

An impeller is a important part of turbo-machinery. It has a set of twisted surfaces because it consists of many blades. Five-axis machining is required to produce a impeller because of interference between tool and workpiece. It can obtain good surface integrity and high productivity. This paper proposes finish cutting method for machining impeller with 5-axis machining center and optimization of cutting condition by response surface method. Firstly, cutting methods are selected by consideration of operation characteristics. Secondly, response factors are determined as cutting time and cutting error for prediction of productivity. Experiments are projected by central composite design with axis point. Thirdly, regression linear models are estimated as single surface in the leading edge and as dual surface in the hub surface cutting. Finally, cutting conditions are optimized.

Owing to governmental regulations and concern regarding the safety of the environment, environmental conscious machining technology has become important in today's manufacturing industries. However, cutting conditions in metal cutting processes must also consider traditional dimensions such as production cost, production time and quality of a final product. The purpose of this study is to determine the cutting conditions in achieving a balanced consideration of productivity and environmental consciousness. The environmental factors such as cutting fluid, toxicity and energy are considered in metal cutting processes. In order to consider the relationship between environmental impacts and machining parameter, two factors of the metal cutting processes in this study are considered: cutting fluid and tool life. The experimental results are provided and discussed.
