In recent years, research to machine large-surface micro-features has become important because of the light guide panel of a large-scale liquid crystal display and the bipolar plate of a high-capacity proton exchange membrane fuel cell. In this study, in order to realize the systematic design technology and performance improvements of an ultra-precision machine for machining the large-surface micro-features, a structural characteristic analysis was performed using its virtual prototype. The prototype consisted of gantry-type frame, hydrostatic feed mechanisms, linear motors, brushless DC servo motor, counterbalance mechanism, and so on. The loop stiffness was estimated from the relative displacement between the tool post and C-axis table, which was caused by a cutting force. Especially, the causes of structural stiffness deterioration were identified through the structural deformation analysis of sub-models.

It is very important to obtain the net shape of the product to maximize the shear cutting surface of fine blanking. In this paper, the fine blanking die was manufactured to achieve part characteristics, such as flatness and a fully sheared surface. The V-ring in the fine blanking die was designed to prevent lateral movement of the material. The fine blanking experiment was conducted with the fine blanking die. The material usage rate was increased by over 5.7% and that of the water-soluble lubricant was decreased by over 33% when the 2-cavity die technology was applied to fine blanking. The capacity of the existing press could lead to productivity improvement and cost reduction. Thus, 2-cavity die technology for fine blanking with a minute module of an accurate gear for producing seat recliner parts was developed.

In this paper, we discuss the merits of mechanical machining to generate micro features on large surfaces. An overseas technology trend related to the micro machining and dedicated machinery is also presented. We provide an overview of what characteristics the machinery is required to have to generate micro features on large surfaces and what kind of technical barriers need to be overcome to put the technology to practical use.

산업발전에 따라 초정밀 가공/생산/검사 장비를 설치, 운용하는 FAB. 구조물의 건축이 증대되고 있으며, 이에 따라 건물의 환경진동 규제치도 강화되고 있는 실정이다. 한국은 일본이나 동남아 국가들과는 달리 지진에 대한 피해가 직접적으로 보고되고 있지는 않지만, 동일본 지진에서와 같이 인접국가의 대규모 지진은 초정밀 장비의 작동에 심각한 영향을 준다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 대규모 지진에 영향을 받는 일반 건물과 미세한 지반 진동에도 영향을 받는 정밀 FAB. 에서 운용이 가능한 범용적인 지진재해 대비 모니터링 시스템의 설계에 대해 서술한다.

A cutting device capable of generating various shapes of the cyclic elliptical trajectory of a cutting tool was proposed and micro v-grooving experiments were performed to investigate the characteristics of elliptical vibration cutting (EVC). The proposed cutting device is comprised of a pair of parallel piezoelectric actuators with which harmonic voltages of varying phase difference and magnitude are supplied, creating various shapes of the elliptical tool path. The attributes of the elliptical locus involving the direction of the axis of an ellipse, the rotational direction and amplitudes of a trajectory were fine-tuned for stable operation of the EVC. The EVC characteristics performed with brass and copper revealed reduction in the cutting resistance and suppression of burr formation, resulting in the enhancement of form accuracy of machined micro-features. While the effect of the EVC increases with the increase of excitation frequency and the amplitude, it is found that a change in the cutting force decreases as the amplitude of an elliptical locus increases.

Recently, miniaturization and mass production are the main trends in manufacturing fields. Therefore, ultraprecision machining and MEMS technology have been taken more and more important position in machining of microparts. Micro endmilling is one of the prominent technology that has wide spectrum of application field ranging from macro parts to micro products, such as PDP and IT components, in precision products manufacturing. However, the deburring is significant problem in making smooth and precise parts in micro endmilling. This paper shows removal characteristics of burr generated by micro endmilling process. Additionally, it is necessary to understand the formation mechanism of burr of micro barrier ribs to find proper deburring method.
