This paper deals with ACSR(Aluminum Conductor Steel Reinforced) inner corrosion detection using a detector which automatically runs on an ACSR distribution line and inspects the inner corrosion of the conductor by utilization of the nondestructive eddy current test. According to corrosion appearance and development of ACSR, the impedance change of the eddy current coils is theoretically verified. And then specifications and performances of the detector are described. Experimental procedures and desirable test results are reported. In conclusion, this detector can realize the nondestructive detecting of an ACSR inner corrosion. Upgrading the maintenance efficiency and improving the reliability of distribution line, whether is covered with insulating materials or not, would be expected by this nondestructive test method.method.

This paper deals with an experirrental study of a nondestructive testing system using a solenoid eddy currnet sensor to inspect deteriorations in overhead distribution lines, such as broken wires, severe local corrosion or zinc loss. Corrosion rrechanisrn for ACSR and ACSR-OC is discussed and characteristics for a solenoid sensor to insprt the georretrical pararreters of the coil and testing materials impOOance are briefly analyzed. A measurement system having a constant current source, a signal processing unit and a motor driver is impIemented. This instrument has such capabilities as detecting the sensor output and estimating dinHlsions of the testing conductors, continuously. As a result, it was shown that the eddy current sensor with an encircling coil could effectively estimate the diatreter change due to deteriorations in overhead distribution lines. lines.

Endmill fillet cutting at the corner was conducted with the online measurement of cutting forces and tool deflection by a tool dynamometer and an eddy current sensor system. The profile of the machined surface was also compared with the CAD profile with a Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM) and CALYPSO software. It was found that the end mill cutter with four blades has a better surface profile than that with two blades, and the cutting forces and tool deformation were increased as the cutting speed was increased. When the tool located at the degree $45^{\circ}$ corner was found to conduct the maximum cutting force than started to the point of the workpiece. As it was compared with the CMM and ANOVA analysis result in the case that the cutting force and tool deformation was the maximum, it was found that the result was affected by the spindle speed and the number of blades.

Recently, the operation of precision pocket machining has been studied for the high speed and accuracy in industry to increase production and quality. Moreover, the demand for products with complex 3D free-curved surface shapes has increasing rapidly in the development of computer systems, CNC machining, and CAM software in various manufacturing fields, especially in automotive engineering. The type of aluminum (Al6061) that is widely used in aerospace fields was used in this study, and end-mill down cutting was conducted in fillet cutting at a corner with end-mill tools for various process conditions. The experimental results may demonstrate that the end mill cutter with four blades is more advantageous than that of the two blades on shape forming in the same condition precise machining conditions. It was also found that cutting forces and tool deformation increased as the cutting speed increased. When the tool was located at $45^{\circ}$ (four locations), the corner was found to conduct the maximum cutting force rather than the start point of the workpiece. The experimental research is expected to increase efficiency when the economical precision machining methods are required for various cutting conditions in industry.

From the moment that a firing pin triggers the detonator to the moment that a grenade leaves a barrel is called Action Time. Since a loading and percussion of 40mm grenade happens simultaneously, action time should be within a certain time in order to prevent a Jamming malfunction. Previously, unreliable action time device of 40mm grenade made it difficult to improve quality assurance of K4 Grenade Machine Gun. Here, various sensors were compared and a special device was designed to seek an accurate measurement on action time. In this device, the gap between a signal from an optical sensor in Firing Pin and that from Eddy current probe in the barrel was recorded and data were sent to a computer in real time. Confirming if action time is within the criteria, it is expected that action time plays an important role in quality assurance on 40mm grenade.
