본 연구는 유치와 영구치의 법랑질과 상아질을 bur를 이용하여 삭제한 경우와 Er:YAG laser를 이용하여 삭제한 경우 형성되는 와동의 미세학적인 형태를 관찰하고 삭제 효과를 비교하기 위함이다. 유치와 영구치의 법랑질과 상아질을 #330 bur 와 5 Hz의 150mJ, 200mJ, 250mJ 그리고 300mJ 조사세기로 Er:YAG laser를 조사하여 1mm 두께의 표본이 삭제되는 시간을 측정하였다. 또한 삭제된 표면을 관찰하기 위해서 유치와 영구치 각각 5개에 #330 bur와 5Hz의 150mJ, 200mJ, 250mJ, 300mJ 조사세기로 Er:YAG laser를 1초동안 조사하여 횡단면과 종단면으로 나누어 관찰하였다. 1. Er:YAG 레이저를 사용하여 삭제한 경우 유치와 영구치, 법랑질과 상아질 모두 bur를 이용하여 삭제한 경우보다 삭제 시간이 길었다(P<0.05). 2. 법랑질을 삭제할 경우 bur를 사용시 영구치보다 유치에서 삭제시간이 더 길었다. 그러나 Er:YAG 레이저 사용시에는 유치와 영구치 사이에 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다(P>0.05). 3. 상아질을 삭제할 경우 bur사용시 영구치에서 삭제시간이 더 길었으며 Er:YAG레이저 사용시 150mJ, 5Hz에서는 유의하게 영구치에서 더 긴 삭제시간을 보였으나 나머지 다른 출력의 레이저에서는 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다(P<0.05). 4. SEM 관찰시 bur를 이용하여 치아를 삭제한 경우 치질유형에 관계없이 경계가 비교적 명확한 와동 변연을 보였다. 그러나 와동 변연에서 균열과 $10-100{\mu}m$의 microchipping이 관찰되었다. 와동벽은 회전식 bur에 따른 줄무늬 모양의 표면을 보이고 있었다. 편평한 와동저를 관찰할 수 있었으며 역시 와동벽과 마찬가지로 거친 표면을 보이고 있었다. 5. 레이저를 이용하여 치아를 삭제한 경우 와동의 변연이 명확하고 날카롭게 형성되었다. 와동의 상부의 직경은 조사에너지와 pulse repetition rate가 커질수록 점차 증가하였다. 와동벽은 불규칙하게 배열되었으며 와동의 변연이나 바닥에 비해 불규칙한 양상을 보여주었다. 와동저는 일반적으로 둥근 원추형이며 비교적 부드러운 표면을 보였다. 이상의 결과를 요약해보면 Er:YAG 레이저는 유치와 영구치에서 비슷한 삭제 시간이 소요되었다. 그러나, 법랑질보다는 상아질에 더 효과적인 것으로 나타났다. 실험 결과 레이저를 이용하여 치아를 삭제한 경우 bur사용에 비해 3배 이상의 삭제시간이 소요되었다. 그러나, 레이저를 이용하여 치아를 삭제할 경우 깨끗한 와동 변연이 형성되고 smear layer가 형성되지 않는 점이 장점으로 사료된다.

In milling, cutting tool ins directly attached to spindle and this tells that spindle can provide very useful information on the cutting tool condition such as wear or breakage. Since spindle is rotating at a high speed, measuring spindle velocity using a noncontacting measurement system gives the best information which can be obtained. Due to the force applied to spindle through cutting tool, velocity of spindle changes. And any change in cutting tool condition affects cutting force and consequently spindle vibration. With the intent of continuously monitoring cutting tool condition in intermittent machining operations in a benign manner, a noncontacting velocity measurement system using a laser Doppler velocimeter was assembled to measure spindle torsional vibration. Spindle vibration was measured and analysis of it in the frequency domain yielded a measure which corresponded to amount of cutting tool wear in milling.

In the last few years, lasers have found new applications as tools for ceramic machining which is laser-assisted machining(LAM). LAM process for the machining of difficult-to-machine materials such as structural ceramics, has recently been studied on silicon nitride workpiece for a wide range of operating condition. However, there have been few studies on rake angle in LAM process. In this paper we analyzed difference of machinability between positive and negative rake angle in tools. We have obtained interesting results that we could eliminate chattering, lower specific cutting and cutting ratio in case of positive rake angle. The results suggest that positive rake angled tools can make more plastic deformation and stable cutting of silicon nitride in comparison with negative rake angled one.

This study makes an estimate of the laser-assisted machining (LAM) of an economically viable process for manufacturing precision silicon nitride ceramic parts using a high-power diode laser (HPDL). The surface is locally heated by an intense laser source prior to material removal, and the resulting softening and damage of the workpiece surface simplify the machining of the ceramics. The most important advantage of LAM is its ability to produce much better workpiece surface quality compared to conventional machining. Also important are its larger material removal rates and longer tool life. The cutting force and surface temperature were measured on-line using a pyrometer and a dynamometer, respectively. Tool wear, chips and the surface of the workpiece were measured using optical microscopy, and the surface and fractured cross-section of $Si_3N_4$ were measured by SEM. During the LAM process, the cutting force and tool wear were reduced and oxidation of the machined surface was increased according to the increase in the laser power. Moreover, the more the feed rate increased, the more the cutting force and tool wear increased.

This study focused on laser assisted machining (LAM) of silicon nitride ceramic that efficiently removes the material through machining of the softened zone by local heating. The effects of laser-assisted machining parameters were studied for cost reduction, and active application in processing of silicon nitride ceramics in this study. Laser assisted machining of silicon nitride allows effective cutting using CBN tool by local heating of the cutting part to the softening temperature of YSiAlON using by the laser beam. When silicon nitride is sufficiently preheated, the surface is oxidized and decomposed and then forms bloating, micro crack and silicate layer, thereby making the cutting process more advantageous. HIPSN and SSN specimens were used to study the machining characteristics. Higher laser power makes severer oxidation and decomposition of both materials. Therefore, HIPSN and SSN specimens were machined more effectively at higher power.

Plasma arc cutting is a fusion cutting process in which a gas-constricted arc is employed to produce a high-temperature, high-velocity plasma jet on the workpiece. This process provides some advantages such as increased cutting velocity, excellent working accuracy and the ability to cut special materials (widely used stainless steels and Al-alloys, for example), when compared with iconventional oxyfuel gas cutting. From the view point of price and reliability of the power source, plasma arc cutting has also some distinct advantages over laser beam cutting. High-speed machines with NC or CNC systems are needed for the plasma arc or laser beam cutting process, while for oxyfuel gas cutting, low-speed machines with copying templates or optical-shape tracking sensors can be applied. The low price and high flexibility of the microprocessor arc contributing more and more the application of CNC system in the plasma arc cutting process, as in other manufacturing fields. From these points of view, a microprocessor-based plasma arc cutting system was developed by using a reference-pulse system, and its performance was tested. The interpolating routines were programmed in the assembly language for saving the memory volume and improving the compouting speed, which has an intimate relationship with the available cutting velocity.

In this paper, I have studied minimization of the kerf-width and surface burning which are occurred after the singulation process of multi layer $\mu$-BGA( thickness 1.1 mm, 0.9 mm) with a pulsed Nd:YAG( = 532 nm, repetition rate = 10 Hz) laser. The thermal energy of a pulsed Nd:YAG laser is used to cut the copper layer. I have studied are minimization of the surface burning and kerf-width using a photo resist, $N_2$blowing and polyester double sided tape as a cutting parameter. The $N_2$blowing reduces a laser energy loss by debris and suppresses a surface carbonization. Also, I have studied characters of cutting with a choice of side of laser beam incidence. The SEM(Scanning Electron Microscope), non-contact 3D inspector and high-resolution microscope are used to measure kerf width and surface state. The optimum value of 1.1 mm $\mu$-BGA singulation is 524 $\mu$m that is reduced kerf width of 60 % with $N_2$blowing. And I obtained reduction of carbonization of 68 % with a polyester double side tape in 0.9 mm $\mu$-BGA. I used laser intensity of 1.91$\times$10$^{6}$ / $\textrm{cm}^2$ in this study.

Resistance trimming and cutting processes of printed circuit board by making use of high power UV laser with nano-second pulse width have been proposed and investigated experimentally. Also laser-based application system with high flexibility and complex has been designed and adopted power controller, auto beam size control, auto-focusing and control program developed for ourselves. The function of each module shows that they can be reliable for industrial equipments. Resistance trimming method used a plunge and double cut process with $20{\mu}m$ spot size beam. Results show that double cut process is more effective to control resistance trimming in precision than plunge cut process.
