Because of the turbulent markets and the increasing demand on product quality, the application of new technology to practice is increasingly important. In case of automotive industries, they take interest in laser welding to solve these problems because laser welding has many advantages such as good accessibility, welding quality, fast welding speed and so on. To apply this technology to welding of car body, the data of laser welding are collected through lots of the experiment according to the material, geometry and layer number of welding points. Based on the experiment results and the information of product, i.e. the car side panel, the clustering of stitches for laser welding was carried out and the optimal equipments are selected through the comparison between the requirements of welding and the potential of equipments. Using these results, laser welding cell for the car side panel are configured with the concept of the digital manufacturing, which ensures maximum planning security with visualization and simulation. Finally, the optimal laser welding cell is chosen by the evaluation of alternative cells with assessment criteria.

Present bonding methods which connect steel pipe and spread footing in pile foundation have been generally used. These methods however showed lots of difficulties in the quality control. A new bonding method, which is called 'Bolted Bonding Method(BBM)' , is developed. This method uses factory-made parts so that it may increase the degree of quality, and workability, and is being adopted in the Held concerned. The method is verified by the structural analysis and laboratory test and then a new design formula is proposed. In addition, a comparison test of the present methods and BBM are conducted to observe the applicability and economy of the latter. As results, it is observed that BBM shows 5 to 10 times faster in Held work and 9% to 50% cheaper in construction cost than the existing methods.

Nowadays, the increasing global competition forces automobile manufacturer to increase quality and to reduce the cost and time for manufacturing planning. To solve these problems, automobile manufacturers try to apply digital manufacturing technologies. In this paper, a concept of method for planning the digital assembly system is proposed. Based on the requirements of assembly tasks obtained through product analysis, the function and sequence modeling for assembly process is executed using the IDEF0 and UML model. For implementation of digital assembly system, the selected components are modeled by using 3D CAD tools. According to the system configuration strategy, lots of the alternative solutions for the assembly system are generated. Finally, the optimal assembly system is chosen by the evaluation of the alternative solutions with TOPSIS(Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution) method. According to proposed procedure, digital laser welding system is implemented in DELMIA.

이 글에서는 차실 내부 소음을 형성하는 각종 발생 형태 및 소음원, 전달 형식의 분류에 따라 특성을 간략히 살펴보았다. 각 소음원 및 전달경로의 특성을 확실히 이해하면, 현상을 파악하는 작업이나 소음제어 대책을 수립하는데에 있어서 매우 효과적으로 대처할 수 있다. 이 글에서는 소음 저감 대책에 관하여 논하지는 않았지만, 소음발생 기제(mechanism)에 대한 근본적 원인을 포함하고 있으므로 각 소음 문제에 대한 대책을 수립하는데 있어서 저감 방향을 설정하는 것은 실제 구조 에 대한 기본 개념의 적용이라고 볼 수 있다. 한편, 차체의 용접 및 접착 상태, 부품의 제작 및 조립 상태, 철판 및 고무류의 제작 및 재료 상태 등에 의해서도 내부 소음의 특성이 상당이 틀려지게 되므로, 제품 및 공정의 설계자는 제작에 참여 하는 인원의 숙련 상태에 관계없이 일정한 수준의 소음 품질이 확보 될 수 있도록 최선의 노력을 기울여야 하고, 제작 근로자들도 세심한 정성을 쏟아야 일관성 있게 조용한 차를 생산헤 낼 수 있다.

The thermal response of electronic assemblies during forced convection-infrared reflow soldering is studied. Soldering for attaching electronic components to printed circuit boards is performed in a process oven that is equipped with porous panel heaters, through which air is injected in order to dampen temperature fluctuations in the oven which can be established by thermal buoyancy forces. Forced convection-infrared reflow soldering process with air injection is simulated using a 2-dimensional numerical model. The multimode heat transfer within the reflow oven as well as within the electronic assembly is simulated. Parametric study is also performed to study the effects of various conditions such as conveyor speed, blowing velocity, and electronic assembly emissivity on the thermal response of electronic assemblies. The results of this study can be used in the process oven design and selecting the oven operating conditions to ensure proper solder melting and solidification.

The block assembly of ship consists of a series of heat processes such as cutting, bending, welding residual stress relaxation and fairing With the fast development of computers, the thermal elasto-plastic analysis method has become a versatile tool for practical applications in the ship production. If numerical analysis is proved to be an advantageous tool to predict the residual deformation due to various heat processes, the optimum methods which can remove the welding distortion can be presented at each assembly stage, which will result in great progress in improving the accuracy of block assembly. In order to minimize the weld-induced angular distortion in thick weldments, this paper proposes the optimum groove design for various plate thickness as the distortion control method. The validity of this method has been substantiated by a number of numerical simulations and experiments.
