  • A circular saw is an effective tool for cutting glass and carbon-fiber hybrid composites. This study investigated tool wear and cut quality when reusing saw blades. The carbide saws wear four times faster than the new ones, and polycrystalline diamond (PCD) is very resistant to tool wear, except at the end of its lifespan. The cut cross-section quality is affected by the blade type, tool wear, and spindle speed. Alternate top bevel (ATB)-type blades are suitable for cutting fiber-reinforced plastics, but triple-chip grind (TCG)-type blades are unsuitable because they cause fiber-pullout defects. Tool wear and low spindle speeds increase the occurrence of arc scratches, due to the rear saw blade. A microscopic examination showed that the burr, which is a mixture of fiber chips and epoxy matrix, was bonded on top, and glass-fiber delamination occurred on the bottom glass-fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) surface.

  • The localization of manufacturing technique development is actualizing for low cost with supplies of display devices. We need more high cutting technique because consumers want flat glasses of various sizes. Recently, most general two methods are normal wheel cutting and laser cutting, but both of them have some faults. First, the wheel cutting has cracks and sharp edges of sections. Second, it is easy for laser cutting to cut curved lines. however, it has thermal damage and low traverse speed. I suggest a new cutting method by high-wave frequency vibration wheel cutting(HFVC), which is good for quality improvement. Vertical cracks and crack depth is observed, after HFVC. When the average of the crack depth is $30{\mu}m$ and the average of the wallner liner depth is $200{\mu}m$, it has the most high quality of the sections in this experiment. As a result, when we consider between the normal wheel cutting method and the HFVC method, the latter has low cracks and good quality.

  • There is an immense need to obtain nanometric surface finish on optical glass owing to the advantage of improved performance of the components. But owing to brittleness and hardness, optical glass is one of the materials that is difficult to ultra-precision turning. According to the hypothesis of ductile mode machining, regardless of their hardness and brittleness, will undergo a transition from brittle to ductile machining region below a critical undeformed chip thickness. Below this threshold, it is suggested that the energy required for plastic formation. Thus, plastic deformation is the predominant mechanism of material removal in machining these materials in this mode. An experimental study is conducted diamond cutting for machining BK7 glass. The investigation presents the feasibility of achieving nanometric surface and the understanding the mechanism of cutting glass, proving the cutting edge radius effect.

  • A turning (facing) test on Glass Fiber Reinforced Plastics was performed with several tool materials, e.g., cemented carbides, cermet and ceramic, and the wear patterns and wear rate were analyzed to clarify the relation between physical(mechanical) properties and flank wear of cutting tool. The main results are obtained as follows: (1) When cutting speed is increased, the flank wear in every tool material grows the abnormal wear in the shape of triangle at a certain speed, i.e., a critical speed. (2) When cutting speed is increased, the wear rate in experimental tool material starts to increase remarkably at a critical speed. (3) The thermal conductivity among the properties of the tool material and the thermal crack coefficient of it are almost in proportion to the critical speed. (4) The order of performance in tool materials for cutting GFRP is K 10, M10, P20, TiC, CB.

  • In the use of glass fiber reinforced plastics(GFRP), cutting is often necessary. But the most of past studies have been interested in the effect of fiber orientation on tool wear. In this study, the effects of fiber contents on tool wear were investigated experimentally. By proper selection of cutting tool, the variables are cutting speed and fiber contents of 10, 20, 30wt% with fixed feed rate and depth of cut.
