This study presents a method to test quite small-sized and light-weighted micro-drill bits which are used to make holes in printed circuit boards(PCB). After getting images of micro-drill bits through the high resolution microscope, we developed image processing algorithms to detect fiducial points, and then measured diverse factors of the drill-bit based on these points. We also developed the window-based inspection system to automatically discriminate normal and abnormal status. For the relative comparison of its performance, the system was compared with an existing inspection system using test images. Experimental results showed that the proposed system slightly improved performance, and also classified correctly some misjudged errors which were occurred in the existing system.

A new concept drill was developed recently (or increasing accuracy and productivity in drilling operation. The burr formation in drilling causes many problems in deburring operation because burrs are formed inside holes and it is difficult to remove them. Burr formations are observed in drilling operation with a new concept drill and are compared with conventional HSS drill. Several workpieces with different materials are drilled with several cutting conditions, velocity and feed rate. The burr in drilling can be classified into three types according to the location of crack. To observe the burr formation mechanism, the cap which is formed with the new concept drill is observed and measured.

In-process detection of drill wear is one of the most important technoligies for automatic, unmaned machining systems. In this study, an on-line drill wear estimation model based on spindle/Z-axis motor currents generated during the drilling process is proposed. The theoretical model is obtained by integrating the drilling process model and the servomechanism model. The drilling process model describes the relationship of drill wear and drilling torque/ thrust force, whereas the servomechanism model describes the relationship of drilling torque/ thrust force applied to motor and spindle/Z-axis motor current. Evaluation tests have shown that the proposed model is a good real-time estimator for drill wear.

Although ceramic plates with many micro-hales are used as MCP (Micro-channel plate) for electron amplification, catalytic converters, filters, electrical insulators and thermal conductors in integrated circuits, the drilling of micro-hales in the ceramics is difficult because of their low thermal conductivity, high hardness and brittleness. Therefore, in this work, the machining of ceramic green body fellowed by sintering of green body was employed fur fabricating ceramic plates with many micro-holes. The micro-drilling of alumina green body was performed with diamond abrasive WC drills, and the cutting force w.r.t. drilling times was measured for the determination of toot life. From the investigation of the wear of micro-drill tip w.r.t. drilling times, the wear mechanism of tip during micro-drilling of ceramic green body was suggested.

Experimental study of drilling for duralumin A2024 was conducted with intermittently accelerated and decelerated feedrate. It is achieved through a programmed periodic increase and decrease in the feedrate using a machining center. The following experimental results were performed with the objective of solving chip to disposal problems. In conventional drilling of aluminum, long continuous chips are produced with winding around the drill and causing difficulties in eliminating chips from the cutting zone. In order to acquire the basic data necessary to regulate the chip profile, the relationship between cutting variables and chip shape was investigate. The following conclusions are established from the experimental results. At a suitable feed fluctuation ratio, intermittently decelerated feed drilling proved successful in braking chips to appropriate lengths while maintaining stable cutting. Thus, it is an effective method for improving chip disposal. The amplitude of the dynamic component of cutting force in intermittent feed drilling is influenced by the feed fluctuation ratio.

In this paper, the optimum drilling operation sequence which results into the minimum overall machining time required to produce a (multi-diameter) hole is identified. The operation sequence is defined as the set of ordered operations used for producing a (multi-diameter) hole. The overall machining time is derived by summing the minimum machining times of each operation assigned to a sequence. The operations represent the drilling actions of certain sizes to produce the related holes. The minimum machining time of each operation is obtained by solving the optimization problem. Finally, this paper will identify the effects of machining constraints on the overall machining times and their relationships to sequence selection.

Recently, the use of aluminum components in the reduction of the vehicle weight to improve fuel efficiency and reduce carbon dioxide emissions has increased. In the aluminum machining cutting process, hole-making is an important process that accounts for 30% of the machining process. Although many studies have been conducted using the continuously advancing hole processing technology, studies on the machinability of the tool depending on the type of chuck on the workpiece are still lacking. In this study, the machining performance of cemented carbide burnishing drills was compared and analyzed according to chuck type. The burnishing drill was used to create a hole in the AL6061 workpiece, and the surface roughness and dimensional accuracy of the hole were examined according to the type of chuck while monitoring the spindle load.

After drilling, reaming is required to process a workpiece for obtaining an excellent surface quality. In general, a cermet is defined as a "composite of a ceramic hard phase and metal-bonded phase." Cermets have excellent abrasion resistance, thermal resistance, and performance in finishing operations that require surface roughness and processing precision. However, although cermets have significant advantages, research on them is insufficient. In this study, workpiece SM45C was machined using drills and cermet reamers. The cermet reamer was processed for drag finishing for 0, 4, and 6 min. The experimental results showed the effects of drag finishing on surface roughness and dimensional accuracy.
