Inclusions in Ti investment castings are generally known to have detrimental effects on the performance of the castings. However, actual inclusions are infrequent and hard to be located. As a result, it is extremely difficult to obtain sufficient amount of fatigue test specimens of titanium investment castings having inclusions in the gage section. Thus, in-depth research of the adverse influence of inclusions is also hindered. To address this problem, a new casting methodology of specimens containing hard alpha inclusions was developed in this study. To guarantee successful introduction of an inclusion and casting, a carefully designed mold with 8 legs and a special tool were employed. After solidification, castings were cut, and X-ray radiography determined that the inclusions were successfully incorporated into the castings. The castings were further prepared to obtain multiple test specimens and they were fatigue-tested consecutively. Fractography analysis confirmed that fatigue cracks initiated at the hard alpha inclusion. In a nonlinear regression model, the fatigue life can be modeled as an exponential function with a negative exponent of the cross-sectional area of an inclusion. The fatigue life of Ti specimens containing inclusions is inversely proportional to the cross-sectional area of an inclusion.

In this study, the influence of various factors on surface roughness was investigated using the Taguchi experimental method through high-speed machining processing. Feed rate, pitch, tool diameter, and depth of cut are widely applied to high-speed machining conditions for mold production. Each of these factors was implemented and classified into three levels; then, after high speed machining, surface roughness was measured, the S/N ratio was analyzed, and the influence on the surface roughness of control factors was analyzed quantitatively by ANOVA. Using this information, a mathematical model for predicting surface roughness was derived from multiple regression analysis. This mathematical model enables the surface roughness value after high-speed machining to be predicted at the production stage, before machining, for a wide range of machining conditions.

The thermal and mechanical properties of an electro-slag cast steel of a similar chemical composition with an AISI-6F2 steel are investigated and compared with a forged AISI-6F2 steel. AISI-6F2 is a hot-working tool steel. Electro-slag casting (ESC) is a method of producing ingots in a water-cooled metal mold by the heat generated in an electrically conductive slag when current passes through a consumable electrode. The ESC method provides the possibility of producing material for the high quality hot-working tools and ingots directly into a desirable shape. In the present study, the thermal and mechanical properties of yield strength, tensile strength, hardness, impact toughness, wear resistance, thermal fatigue resistance, and thermal shock resistance for electro-slag cast and forged steel are experimentally measured for both annealed and quenched and tempered heat treatment conditions. It has been found that the electro-slag cast steel has comparable thermal and mechanical properties to the forged steel.

플락스틱 재료를 사용한 가공법 중에서 가장 보편적인 가공법이 사출성형이다. 플라스틱 재료의 활용도는 지속적으로 증가하고 있으며, 신소재 등의 개발로 그 적용범위 또한 확대되고 있다. 사출성형에서 수축현상은 수지의 종류, 즉 결정성 수지인지 비결정성 수지인지에 따라 크게 다르게 나타나며 사출성형시의 운전조건에 따라서도 다르다. 본 연구에서는 Al합금으로 제작되고 있는 인라인 스케이트의 프레임을 플라스틱 재료로 대체하기 위한 최적화 공정에 관한 것이다. 금형설계 전 해석을 통하여 성형공정이 최소화되는 런너와 게이트의 치수와 형상을 결정하겠다. 런너와 게이트의 치수 변화에 따른 제품의 사출성형성을 알아보겠다. 본 연구의 시뮬레이션에서는 사출성형해석용 소프트웨어인 Moldflow를 이용해서 해석을 수행하였다.

Injection molding is a very important industrial process for the manufacturing of plastics objects. During an injection molding process of composites, the fiber-matrix separation and fiber orientation are caused by the flow of molten polymer/fiber mixture. As a result, the product tends to be nonhomogeneous and anisotropic. Hence, it is very important to clarify the relations between separation orientation and injection molding conditions. So far, there is no research on the measurement of fiber orientation using image processing. In this study, the effects of fiber content ratio and molding condition on the fiber orientation-angle distributions are studied experimentally. Using the image processing method, the fiber orientation distribution of weld-line in injection-molded products is assessed. And the effects of fiber content and injection mold-gate conditions on the fiber orientation are also discussed.

The study on damaged layer is necessary for machinability improvement in micro machining. The damaged layer in metal cutting is derived from plastic deformation and transformation of metal structure. The damaged layer affects micro mold life and micro machine parts. In this study, the damaged layer of micro machined surface of copper is evaluated according to various machining condition. The damaged layer structure and metallurgical characteristics are measured by optical microscope, and evaluated by cutting forces and surface roughness. The scale of this damaged layer depends on cutting process parameters and machining environments. By experimental results, depth of damaged layer was increased with increasing of cutting depth, also the damaged layer is less occurred in down-milling compared to up-milling during micro endmilling operation.

Rapid prototyping(RP) has been used for design verification and proto sample or mold manufacturing. Many RP systems have been introduced into the market during the past 15 years. However, until now, the systems have used mainly for external physical models (mono function), and have the basic but critical limitation of one material on one stage (mono material). To overcome the limitations of mono-material and mono-function of conventional. RP systems, the concept of Functional Phototype Development (FPD) is newly proposed in this paper FPD provides the necessary prototype functions such as mechanical, optical, chemical and electrical properties in order to meet the broad requirements of the industry. The paper illustrates the representative achievements of electronic components such as the multi-layer printed circuit board(MLB). Experimental results demonstrate that FPD has great potential applied to broad industrial uses and that It Will be a powerful tool in the neat future.

Digital designs that appear in the three-dimensional virtual space by the digital type are designed as there is not an image created with an organic artificially generated (Creation) and representation (Modifying), developed by the specific environment given. The advanced digital design will produce a result with an algorithm according to a mathematical operation and the environment and has the nature of generating the real world, changes, development and affinity (Genetic Process). The digital design process is largely defined by a set of processes that are consistently designed to integrate form of creation, reproduction, proceeds in three steps, while the manufacture and assembly as a form of maintenance as possible the intended form of control data from the concept of building. By Joris Laarman 3D printer design is a simulation created by the digital process by the various algorithms and design achieved through the development of 3D printers, such as new materials and MX3D. From the mold production of a complex whole by using a robot and other digital production tool extracts a variety of forms.
