  • In order to survive worldwide competition, today's industries are experiencing strong pressure to introduce higher quality products with lower cost and shorter lead-time. Therefore, the role of design in the process of product development is increasing in significance. In this research, two methods for improving the design capability are proposed: construction of design environment and design automation using 3D CAD system. The designers and design process are the core of product design using 3D CAD system. In order to maximize the design performance, construction of the design environment including selection of a suitable system, designer training for best use of the system, establishment of an efficient design process, and stabilization of the environment are required. A method is suggested to construct design environment by systematizing the contents of the projects and consulting experiences carried out for various categories of business such as electronic devices, motorcycles, electricity parts, sanitary wares, injection molds, and die casing molds. Design automation helps reduce tedious and time-consuming jobs, simplify complicated and error-prone modeling and drawing works to shorten the lead time and improve the product quality. To develop a design automation system, understanding the process and the related knowledge on design are very important before implementing the system using API provided by 3D CAD system. In this research, an eight-step procedure is proposed for the development of a design automation system. These eight steps are analysis of needs, determination of specification, verification of specification using 3D CAD system, inspection of related API functions, programming, field test, application in practice, and maintenance. A case study in which five design automation systems in the design of turbine generators using the proposed method is introduced in detail. These systems play important roles in the generation of various output items including 3D models, drafts, material information, and NC data. The case study shows how effectively the design time is reduced and the quality improved using those systems.

  • The IT project for power plants initiated domestically in 2005 necessitates the power equipment facility and the controllers for those to be sufficiently adaptable for automation system for power substations. This implies that the power plants using power equipments must be developed to satisfy the IEC61850 standards. The IEC61850 communication standards that all power equipment and facility and controllers installed in automation system for power substations must follow has had its Parts 3 and Part 4 established as international standard in January 2002 and Part 10 in May 2005, the last to become international standard. Hence all separate parts of the original IEC61850 standard came to be established as international standards. As a consequence, after 2005, in most power substations around the world the IEC61850 standard is being applied and the prominent makers are geared towards manufacturing products to the IEC61850 standard. The IEC61850 is being recognized as an essential standard that must be applied to not only power substations but for automation of power systems and communication systems. In this research, the Gateway device that connects current SCADA system and IEC61580 based system has been domesticated with Korea‘s own technology and extensive testing was carried out in order to obtain confidence in its performance.

  • Construction automation and robotics are being introduced as an efficient alternative to overcome troubles caused by lack of skilled labors. To accomplish effective automated construction system, design for automation(DFA) should be performed in parallel with the development of core technologies such as control and sensing of robots. In Korea, the development of robotic crane-based construction automation(RCA) system is progressing, and the research group has recently developed newly designed steel joint to improve the efficiency of the system. However, performance of the new system should be examined prior to its application on construction sites. Therefore, This study analyzed performance of the new steel frame focused on its constructibility by carrying out mock-up test. As a result, the steel frame satisfied the standards of allowable stress and deflection. It also enables to reduce the time for installation.

  • The shipbuilding industry needs automation and mechanization to solve reduction of skilled workers and labor shortage. Ship manufacturing process is the lack of automation than standardized manufacturing field. In this paper, we design and development an process automation system for hand rail production. Mechanical parts of the cutting process was designed with efficiency, productivity and reliability, CATIA and ANSYS, the stability of the mechanical structure was confirmed. System control using a PCNC controller to provide an open and scalable, and operate using touch-screen display control and monitoring of the system was performed. The automatic system successfully passed the driving test and processing test, and it showed an excellent performance.

  • As developers and testers today we all suffer from increasing project complexity, the risks of late defect discovery, repetitive manual processes, and the risk of release delays. In this paper, we introduce an effective framework for automated testing to help solve such problems. Those that are new to testing do not need to delve into complex automation tools or test scripts. This framework helps automate the distribution, execution and results analysis of test cases. It also aids communication among the various stakeholders, using tables for representing tests and for reporting the results of automatically checking those tests. This paper describes the practices and benefits of using the proposed framework.

  • In manufacturing, process automation and parameter optimization are required in order to improve productivity. Especially in welding process, productivity and weldablity should be considered to determine the process parameter. In this paper, optimization methodology was proposed to determine the welding conditions using the objective function in terms of productivity and weldablity. In order to conduct this, welding experiments were carried out. Tensile test was performed to evaluate the weldability. Neural network model to estimate tensile strength using the laser power, welding speed, and wire feed rate was developed. Objective function was defined using the normalized tensile strength which represented the weldablilty and welding speed and wire feed rate which represented the productivity. The optimal welding parameters which maximized the objective function were determined.
