The purpose of the present study is to propose a new way of manufacturing curved metal tubes with arbitrary sections and way of eliminating the conventional bending defects such as thinning and thickening, in the wall of tube, distortion of the section, and wrinkling and folding on the surface by the extrusion bending process that can extrude and weld together one or more billets inside dies cavity, and can bend them during extrusion due to the gradient of extrusion velocities controlled by the eccentricity of the cavity sections between the entrance and the exit of the eccentric conical extrusion bending dies and conical plug, or by the relative size of the holes of multi-hole container, or by the relative moving velocity of multi-punches.

In this paper, as a new measurement method to estimate the change of material condition, the simplified ultrasonic CT system, which uses the information of three directions, that is, $90^{\circ}$, $+45^{\circ}C$and $-45^{\circ}C$ about inspection plane is proposed. Use of simplified CT system has two merits: Firstly, the measurement time is very short compared with general CT. Secondly, it can detect sensitively small defect in vertical or slant direction about inspection plane because the obtained image is CT image calculated from three directions. From these merits, this method can be considered as an effective method to evaluate material conditions. The basic performance of the proposed method was confirmed through several specimens with several simple defects. In order to confirm the applicability of actual NDT, several kinds of welded specimens are investigated. The result showed that the CT image obtained had good agreement with actual defect of specimens.

Injection molded plastic parts have many surface defcts: Warpage, wedline, flowmark, zetting, scratching, shading and so on. In the desktop mnitor's case, Weld line have been one of the main surface defects. Nowadays in the pursuit of light weight of parts, one of the big problems of LCD Monitor thinks Warpage and surface shrinkage. In this paper, we introduce some instances for prevevting these defestcs in the side of mould drawing, parts drawing and processing condition. Based on these, we tried to find out the optimum processing conditions through repeatedly tried injection moulding after reflecting these instances.

This study is a middle report on the development of intelligent spot welding monitoring technology applicable to the production line. An intelligent algorithm has been developed to predict the quality of welding in real time. We examined whether it is effective or not through the In-Line and the Off-Line tests. The purpose of the present study is to provide a reliable solution which can prevent welding defects in production site. In this study, the process variables, which were monitored in the primary circuit of the welding, are used to estimate the weld quality by Hidden Markov Model(HMM). The primary dynamic resistance patterns are recognized and the quality is estimated in probability method during the welding. We expect that the algorithm proposed in the present study is feasible to the applied in the production sites for the purpose of in-process real time quality monitoring of spot welding.

In order to demonstrate the friction stir weldability of the Al 6061 T-6 unequal thickness joint and determine optimum welding parameters, the relations between welding parameters and properties of the joints have been studied in this paper. The experimental results showed that the tensile properties of the joints are affected by the welding heat inputs and tool shape. In this study, the maximum ultimate strength of the as-welded joint is equivalent to 78% and 18hour aged joint is equivalent to 93% that of the base metal. Though the voids-free joints are fractured at the thermally affected zone on the advancing side, the fracture occurs at the weld center when the void defects exist in the joints.

In this study, the side panels were developed using the laser-welded Tailored Blanks (TB) with both the same thickness and the different thickness. At first, the formability of the same thickness T.B was investigated to be compared with one of the non welded panel with respect to weldline movements and strain distribution on blank during the stamping. Based on these results, we selected candidates of T.B with different thickness for stamping experiments. That is, we determined the weld line positions and the die step. Then we made some stamping tryouts with selected types of blank designs to investigate the formability of T.B with different thickness. During the tryouts, the wrinkles were found in the a-pillar lower region which is under the deformation mode of the shrink flange. In the b-pillar region, the fractures were found also, these defects have been reduced and corrected by controlling the blank design and the die faces and process pamameters.

Recently, a rolling stock has been requiring more efficient manufacturing method than welding for the improved quality and the enhanced fabrication of car body structure. As an alternative, modularization of car body structure is being studied. Accordingly, rolling stock manufacturers need to make it possible to develop a variety of rolling stock vehicles made from modularized sub-blocks in order to meet various customer's demands. The bolt-assembled car body structure for modularization is known to have many advantages over the existing weld-assembled method and is free from the possible welding defects, such as welds between dissimilar metals, crack, deformation and loss of strength. Consequently, we can have the improved overall quality, the reduced man powers for assembly and the satisfied strength of car body structure. The review is about the bolt-assembled car body structure for modularization to assure global competitiveness and an enhanced technique in terms of assembly methodology of car body structure.

NAUT(Non contact Air coupled Ultrasonic Testing)기법은 초음파 탐상법 중의 하나로서 공기중 음향 임피던스의 차이로 생기는 에너지 손실을 High Power 초음파 Pulser Receiver, PRE-AMP, 고감도의 탐촉자로 보완하여 비접촉식으로 초음파 탐상을 가능하게 하는 탐상 방법이다. NAUT는 초음파의 송신 및 수신이 안정된 상태에서 이루어지므로 기존의 접촉식 탐상으로는 불가능하였던 고온, 저온의 물질이나 시험편의 표면이 거친 부분, 좁은 지점 등에서도 탐상이 가능하다. 본 연구에서는 NAUT기법의 산업체 실용여부를 알아보기 위해 자동차생산 공정에서 많이 사용하는 스폿용접부 및 CFRP 제품에 있어 상용화 연구를 통해 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 본 연구에서는 NAUT기법의 사용 여부를 알아보기 위해 자동차 부품에서 많이 사용하는 스폿용접부 및 CFRP 부품의 내부결함 검출을 검출하였다. 스폿용접부에서는 초음파의 투과율이 높아 적색으로 나타났으며, 복층으로 된 부분은 투과율이 낮아 청색 화상이 나타났다. 또한 측정 속도를 결정하는 중요요소인 PRF(Pulse Repetition Frequency;송신펄스주기)에 따라 색상 선명도의 차이를 보였다. CFRP 시험편 또한 화상장치를 통해 취득된 각 화상 결과를 보고 내부 결함의 모양, 크기, 위치 등의 파악이 단시간에 가능하였다. 실험을 통해 NAUT기법과 화상화가 동시에 이루어짐을 확인하였고, 스폿 용접부와 CFRP 탐상에 NAUT의 적용이 가능한지 그 실현여부를 확인하였다.

The main purpose of this study was to investigate the formation mechanisms of imperfections such as irregular humps, outer cavity and inner cavity in the laser fusion zone of diamond saw blade. Laser beam welding was conducted to join two parts of blade; mild steel shank and Fe-Co-Ni sintered tip. The variables were beam power and travel speed. The microstructure and elements distributions of specimens were analyzed with SEM, AES, EPMA and so on. It was found that these imperfections were responded to heat input. Irregular humps were reduced in 10.4∼17.6kJ/m heat input range. However there were no clear evidences, which could explain the relations between humps formation and heat input. The number of outer cavity and inner cavity decreased as heat input was increased. Considering both possible defects formations mechanisms, it could be thought that outer cavity was caused by insufficient refill of keyhole, which was from rapid solidification of molten metal and fast molten metal flow to the rear keyhole wall at low heat input. More inner cavities were found near the interface of the fusion zone and sintered segment and in the bottom of the fusion zone. Inner cavity was mainly formed in the upper fusion zone at high heat input whereas was in the bottom at low heat input. Inner cavity was from trapping of coarsened preexist pores in the sintered tip and metal vapor due to rapid solidification of molten metal before the bubbles escaped.
