A counter shaft gear is an important part in the transmission system of vehicle. Its shape is relatively complicated and should meets high strength. Traditionally the counter shaft gear has been manufactured as follows; a spline body is firstly machined for teeth and then attached to the main gear body by frictional welding, and finally is finished by grinding. Therefore it is necessary to develop a new manufacturing technology eliminating both frictional welding and grinding processes. In this study, a new hot forging process was proposed and designed so that the spline body with teeth and main gear body are formed as one body. Finite element simulations and experimental works were peformed for design of forging processes to get the quality final precision-forged product. Consequently the most suitable blocker process could be obtained.

The vertical roller mill is important for machine grinding and mixing various crude materials in the process of producing Portland cement. A vertical roller mill is subjected to cyclic bending stress because of the roller load. Because of the cyclic bending stress, only $4{\times}10^6-8{\times}10^6$ cycles are achieved instead of $4{\times}10^7$ cycles. The stress also causes fractures at the edge of grinding path of the outer roller. The expenses incurred in repairing the grinding path amounts to 30% of the total maintenance cost. Therefore, it is desirable to redesign the vertical roller mill in order to reduce the expenses incurred in repairing the roller. In this study, artificial neural networks (ANNs) were applied in order to solve the multiobjective optimization problem for vertical roller mills by using the function approximation ability of ANNs. To learn and generalize ANNs, the maximum and minimum stresses were estimated from the results of the finite-element analysis of a vertical roller mill. Thus, ANNs could be applied to solve the multiobjective optimization problem.

This study was performed the real motion and DEM simulation of ball motion using three different types of grinding media with different size and materials in media formation for optimization of process conditions in a traditional ball mill (media ball mill). In the simulation, the rotational speed of the mill, the material of the medium, the velocity of the medium, and the coefficient of friction between the media and the wall of pot were fixed into the actual experimental conditions. The motion of various kinds of grinding media was quantitatively measured by setting the grinding zone defined in the present study on the photographs taken and the snapshot images analyzed in the simulation. In addition, we observed the quantitatively measured value and the changed morphology of the sample and examined the correlation. Therefore, it is suggested to optimize the grinding media which has the greatest influence on the grinding zone under specific experimental conditions.

To treat and recycle a large quantity of converter slag. the milling properties of -14/ +24 mesh-sized slag has been considered. The optimal conditions in milling process were investigated for producing powder-type slag and the required consumption was derived for the economical grinding. The characteristics of milling processes were studied in the variation of the rotational speed, milling time, filling ratio of ball, and size and amount of feed. The grinding efficiency was also examined. The optimal rotational speed in this experimental condition was observed to be the value of 79% of critical speed. The extent of grinding was increased with increasing the grinding time. but the efficiency of milling was decreased with the time. 50% ball filling was shown to have the optimal grinding effect, and less amount and small-sized feed made the milling efficiency high. As the result, using Bond's equation, power required for efficient milling was considered and the highest value was observed in the condition of high grinding time and optimal rotational speed.

In the recent fourth industrial revolution, the demand for additive processes has emerged rapidly in many mechanical industries, including the aircraft and automobile industries. Additive processes, in contrast to subtractive processes, can be used to produce complex-shaped products, such as three-dimensional cooling systems and aircraft parts that are difficult to produce using conventional production technologies. However, the limitations of additive processes include nonuniform surface quality, which necessitates the use of post-processing techniques such as subtractive methods and grinding. This has led to the need for hybrid machines that combine additive and subtractive processes. A hybrid machine uses additional additive and subtractive modules, so product deformation, for instance, deflection, is likely to occur. Therefore, structural analysis and design optimization of hybrid machines are essential because these defects cause multiple problems, such as reduced workpiece precision during processing. In this study, structural analysis was conducted before the development of an additive/subtractive hybrid processing machine. In addition, structural optimization was performed to improve the stability of the hybrid machine.

A coolant pump is the device that cools processed articles and tools when using cutting, boring, and grinding machine tools and provides cutting oil for distributing or cleansing the cut chip to the worktable, processing position, etc. In particular, it consumes a large proportion of energy in machine tools, so it plays an important role in terms of energy efficiency. The purpose of this research is to optimize the shape of impeller, which directly affects performance improvements, to determine the capacity of the coolant pump. To do so, we carried out a parametric analysis with the geometric shape of the impeller as the input variable.

Ball screw systems are largely used in industry for motion control and motor applications. But the problem of noise, which really perplexes us, is highly correlated with the quality in ball screw systems all the way. In this paper, machining process parameters were evaluated in respects of technique, business, produce and quality to verify which impact influences the noise most. In order to adjust and compare, two comparison groups were set with the present parameters bench mark. Different ball screws were produced as specimens for the noise tests. Through comparing the noise performance of different parameters in the machining process respectively, a group of optimized machining process parameters were obtained. Another noise test was proceeded to know how noise performance was improved by optimizing the machining process parameters. At last, surface roughness tests have been done to know how surface roughness improved by optimization. The improvement of surface roughness is the main factor influences the noise performances.

Used cutting fluid from machining processes is harmful to both environment and human health. Chemical substances that provide the lubrication function in the machining process are toxtc to the environment if the cutting fluid is released to soil and water and caused serious health problems to workers who are exposed to the cutting fluid in both liquid and mist form. Recently. cost of using cutting fluid is increasing as the number and the extensiveness of environmental protection laws and regulations increase. Therefore, the use of cutting fluid in machining processes place an enormous burden on manufacturing companies to cover the additional costs associated with their use and protection of our environment. Current trends in manufacturing are focused on minimizing or eliminating the use of metalworking fluids in machining processes. And the increased costs for the disposal of waste products (swarf, coolants and lubricants), especially in industrially developed countries, has generated interest in dry machining. A variety of new techniques are testimony that new technology has rationalized further efforts to research and implement dry machining processes. This paper presents the developed equipment, the process optimization and the applications in the field of surface grinding for the new cryogenic dry machining using a compressed cooling air. The investigated new machining process method shows many advantages compared to conventional techniques with cutting fluid.
