Tool costs can comprise a significant part of the total operating costs of Flexible Manufacturing Systems. We address the problem of determining the optimal processing times of individual operations and routing mix in FMSs with multiple routes for each part type in order to minimize tool cost, subject to meeting a throughput constraint for each part type. The problem is formulated as a nonlinear program superimposed on a closed queueing network of the FMSs under consideration. Numerical examples reveal the potential of our approach for significant saving in tool costs.

최근 많은 생산 시스템의 자동화에 있어서 기계의 상태 진단 및 감시는 설비의 중요도 및 특수성를 고려할때 매우 중요한 비중을 차지하게 되며, 생산 작업을 최적화할 수 있는적당한 제어기술의 필요성과 그에 대한 관심이 날로 증가 하고있는 실정이다. 특히 가공분야에서 많은 부분을 차지하고 있는 절삭가공작업은 기구의 구성이 복잡하고 불확정한 요인을 포함하고있으며 공구의 파손이나 채터진동에 의한 공작물의 정도의 변화가 급속히 발생하기 때문에 이를 위하여 인프로세서 감시가 절실히 요구되고 있다. 그러므로 비정상적인 절삭을 사전에 감지하여 대처함으로써 최적의 작업조 건하에서 안정된 절삭을 할 수 있고 공작기계의 유지, 보수에 경제적인 절감을 기대할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 2차원 절삭과정중에 발생하는 채터진도에 있어서 절삭 파라메타와 AE 신호와의 관계를 실험적으로 규명하며, AE를 이용한 절삭과정을 모니터링 할 수 있는 방법에 대하여 연구한다.

In optmizing cutting condition for face milling operation, tool wear is an important maching factor. For the purpose of establishing the relationship between various maching factor and tool wear, cutting tests have been performed. As a result, hardness and chemical composition of workpiece material, chemical compositition and grain size of cutting tool and cutting speed have been selected as machining factor. In addition, relationship between feed rate and workpiece hardness has been observed. Prior to utilizing cutting condition recommended by 'Machining Data Hardbook(MDH)' as a Knowledge base, an analysis for the validity has been provided. Based on this analysis, tool life criteria applied by MDH has been modifiied. Finaly, using MDH recommended data for neural network trainning, we can compensate the result form the trained neural network for optimizing cutting condition for some given workpice and cutting tool.

최근 자동차 경량화를 위한 부단한 노력이 진행되고 있다. 이 목적에서, HSS (high strength steel)는 전통적인 연강 (mild steel)의 대안으로 널리 사용되고 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 판금의 형단조에 있어서의 공구와 공정설계를 위하여 HSS의 스프링백(springback)을 정확히 예측하기 위한 성공적인 방법론을 추구하고자 함이다. 연구를 위하여 먼저 스프링백의 개념과 그의 측정치들을 설명했으며 U-draw bending 시험을 수행하였다. 시험 결과 및 선정된 파라메터들 중심의 수행평가기준에 근거하여, 주어진 파라메터 조합들을 중심으로 유한요소 해석을 수행하였다. 직교배열을 통하여 스프링백에 대한 인자 효과들을 포괄적으로 분석하였으며 최적 인자 조합들을 도출하였다. 이 과정에서 직교배열상의 한 조합 전체의 데이터가 가용하지 않는 문제가 수반되었으며, 반복적으로 signal-to-noise 비(ratio)를 개선해가는 기법을 적용하여 해결하였다.

대부분의 동적댐퍼들은 주구조물의 진동진폭을 정해진 주파수 변위내에서 최대로 줄이는 것을 목 표로 한다. 그러나 공작기계의 안정성은 시편과 공구사이의 상대변위와 절삭력에 의해 결정되는 전달함수의 최대크기에 의해서보다는 실수부분의 최소치에 의해 결정된다는 것이 잘 알려져 있 다. 본 논문에서는 이 사실에 착안하여 공작기계에서 발생하는 채터를 흡수하기 위한 최적의 댐 퍼를 설계하는 절차를 제시하고 1 자유도로 대표될 수 있는 구조물의 경우에 대하여 구체적인 방 법을 예시하였다. 종래의 최적 댐퍼의 성질을 구하는 방법에 비해 수학적인 절차가 약간 복잡해 지기는 하나 전산기를 이용하여 큰 어려움이 없이 최적의 설계자료를 얻을 수 있다. 댐퍼 질량이 정해졌을 때 감쇠율과 스프링 계수를 변수로 하는 목표함수가 하나의 식으로 유도될 수 없기 때 문 에 간단한 최적화 방법으로 이변수 황금분할법을 사용하였다. 수치적인 예를 통하여 종래의 다른 방법에 의한 결과와 비교하고 제안된 방법론의 타당성을 입증하였다.

On face milling operation a newly optimal tool, which can minimize the resultant cutting forces resulted from the cutting force model, was designed and manufactrued. Cutting experiments using the new and conventional tools were carried out and the cutting forces resulted from those tools were analyzed in time and frequency domains. The performance of the optimized cutter was tested through the dynamic cutting forces resulted form the newly designed tool are much reduced in comparision with those from the conventional tool. By reducing the dynamic cutting force fluctuations, machine tool vibrations can be reduced, and stable cutting operation can be carried out.

A slot cut in end milling processes is one of the laborious works because the cutting force is likely to deflect the tools excessively, then to make large errors or to fracture the tool. This difficulty is owing to the poor stiffness of slender shaped end mills. Though, in most cases, additional finish cuts are followed after rough cuts, the accuracy of rough cuts is still important because it affects the final accuracy after finish cuts and productivity. The accuracy in slot cuts depends on the tool stiffness and the cutting conditions including depth of cut and feed. In order to meet the desired accuracy, diameter of end mill and cutting allowance have to be selected carefully. This study suggests several guidances for selecting the end mill diameter and the slot cut allowance to improve machining accuracy and productivity in slot end millings. Some experiments were done with the various cutting parameters of tool diameter, depth of cut and feed.

This paper focuses on the optimal step-over value for magnetic tool path. Since magnetic flux density is changed according to distance from center of magnetic tool. Enhanced surface roughness is also different according to change of radius. Therefore, to get a identical surface roughness on workpiece, it is necessary to find optimal tool path including step-over. In this study, response surface models for surface roughness according to change of radiuses were developed, and then optimal enhanced surface roughness for each radius was selected using genetic algorithm and simulated annealing to investigate relation between radius and surface roughness. As a result, it found that step-over value of 6.6mm is suitable for MAP of magnesium alloy.

Five-axis NC machining, in general, is utilized in fabricating impellers, turbine blades, marine propellers that can be machined more effectively rather than three-axis machining. There have been many researches concerning tool interference avoidance, optimization of tool orientation. The C-space or Configuration-space was originated from the robotics area, which depicts interference-free joint-values in motion planning. In the paper we propose an optimizing scheme by which the maximum effective-radius of a face-milling cutter can be achieved for each CC(cutter-contact) point. Also the concept of a C-space for a CC point, the effective-radius map for 5-axis face-milling, and some illustrative examples of marine propeller machining, are presented.
