진공챔버,위생튜브등 정밀한 내면을 필요로 하는 경우 표면거칠기를 향상시키기 위한 방법으로 전해가공 및 수작업을 하는 경우가 대부분인데 이는 가공비가 비씨고 다듬질 시간이 많이 걸리는 등 매우 비경제적이다. 더구나 길이가 긴 관이나 구부러진 관의 내면은 기계적으로 다듬질이 매우 어렵다. 그러나 최근에 개발된 전자기장을 이용한 자력 연마가공법은 기존의 기계적인 가공법과는 달리 실제 가공을 행하는 공구부와 ㅣㅇ를 구동하는 구동부 사이에 공극을 허용하기 때문에 이를 이용하여 회전이 불가능한 곡관의 내면다듬질을 가능하게 하였다. 지금까지 연구들은 단순히 전자석 및 전원으로 이루어진 수동가공 시스템으로서 가공공정 자체의 특성파악에 집중되어 왔으나 자력연마법의 장점중의 하나인 다듬질 공정의 자동화 가능성을 실현시키기 위해서는 공정의 제어가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 이를 실현시키기 위한 기초연구로서 컴퓨터구동 회전자력연마가공 시스템을 개발하고 그 기본특성을 알아보기 위해 유한요소법을 이용하여 원형 요오크 및 여섯개의 자극에 대해 자력선의 분포를 알아보았다. 또한 이로부터 가공영역의 자속밀도를 계산하고 다듬질 가공을 가능케 하기위한 회전자화의 발생방법에 대해 고찰하였다.

Aspherical mirrors have lighter weight and better performance than spherical mirrors, but it is difficult to process their shape and measure the processing precision. Especially, large aperture aspherical mirrors mounted on satellites need high processing precision and long processing time. The computerized numerically controlled machine of gantry type has been used in polishing process, but it has difficulties in processing the complex shapes due to the lack of degrees of freedom. In order to overcome this problem we developed a polishing system using an articulated industrial robot. The system consists of tool path generating program, real-time robot monitoring, and control program. We show the performance of the developed system through the computer simulation and actual robot operation.

The development process of the polishing system for the aspherical lens mold for opto-electronics industry is described. The system uses the method that polishing tool is scanned on the surface under PC-NC control for the aspherical lens mold. The two axes interpolation of the minimum translation mechanism is applied to give uniform working condition by motion analysis. An aspherical surface is divided into multiple sections and each dwell time is calculated from the polishing rate model based on the Preston equation. As result of form error compensation experiment, initial form error is decreased about 25% while an average value of surface roughness is also reduced successfully from 180nm to 19nm.

This paper describes a novel method to surface large optics mirror with an extremely high hardness, which could replace the high cost of the repetitive off-line measurement steps and the large ultra-precision grinding machine with ultra-positioning control of 10 nm resolution. A lot of diamond pellet to be attached on the convex aluminum base consists of a grinding tool for the concave large mirror, and the tool was pressured down on the large mirror blank. The tool motion at an interval on the spiral path was controlled with each feed rate as the dwell time in the conventional computer-controlled polishing. The shape to be surfaced was measured directly by a touch probe on the machine without any separation of the mirror blank. Total 40 iterative steps of the surfacing and measurement could demonstrate the form error of RMS $7.8{\mu}m$, surface roughness of Ra $0.2{\mu}m$ for the mirror blank with diameter of 1 m and spherical radius of curvature of 5400 mm.

CIM기술은 기업체 지원형 및 국산화형 생산기술과 더불어 필수적이고 상호 보완적인 산업기술이 고 또한 첨단제품기술 및 원천과학기술과의 연계가 가능한 접속(interface) 기술이다. 동시에 이의 연구개발은 다분야 공동참여적인 (multi-disciplinary) 기술적 배경을 필요로 하며 산업계 연구 수 행과 종속적이고도 이원적인 연구 체제가 필요하다. CIM기술개발의 예로서 제품 설계에서부터 설계의 해석 및 평가, 금형 설계, 공장 설계, 가공, 사상 및 측정. 검사까지의 과정과 생산통제를 포함하는 제반 생산 행위를 컴퓨터를 이용하여 생산 정보를 통합 제어함으로써 합리적인 금형 생산을 위한 사출 금형의 모델 플랜트를 소개하였다. 이 모델 플랜트는 설계, 공정 설계/NC, 연마, 측정. 검사, 시스템 통제의 5개 스테이션으로 구성되며, 각 스테이션에서의 중단위 통합 모델이 테스트되었다. 향후, 스테이션 간의 정보 흐름이 완전히 통합되면 금형업체는 물론 많은 제조업체에서의 광범위한 CIM기술 활용이 기대된다.

Optics fabrication process for precision space optical parts includes bound abrasive grinding, loose abrasive lapping and polishing. The traditional bound abrasive grinding with bronze bond cupped diamond wheel leaves the machine marks of about $20{mu}m$ rms in height and the subsurface damage of about 1 ${mu}m$ rms in height to be removed by subsequent loose abrasive lapping. We explored an efficient quantitative control of precision CNC grinding. The machining parameters such as grain size, work-piece rotation speed and feed rate were altered while grinding the work-piece surfaces of 20-100 mm in diameter. The input grinding variables and the resulting surface quality data were used to build grinding prediction models using empirical and multi-variable regression analysis. The effectiveness of such grinding prediction models was then examined by running a series of precision CNC grinding operation with a set of controlled input variables and predicted output surface quality indicators. The experiment achieved the predictability down to ${pm}20$ nm in height and the surface roughness down to 36 nm in height. This study contributed to improvement of the process efficiency reaching directly the polishing and figuring process without the need for the loose abrasive lapping stage.

Nd:YAG single crystal widely used as solid state laser was grown by Czochralski method. <111> single crystal with 0.9at% of $Nd^{3+}$ was grown from the Czochralski furnace with a automatic diameter control system. The vertical temperature gradient in the liquid was the major factor that influence the crystal quality, and the crystal diameter was controlled by the home made computer program. The crystal boule with $\phi$50mm$\times$ι100mm effective size was cut, polished, and antireflection coated. The optical evaluation such as absorption spectrum, fluorescence spectrum coincide with typical features of Nd:YAG single crystal. The laser rod was assembled into the CW laser generator with a Kr lamp. The maximum CW laser output was 70 W and the threshold power and efficiency was 1.3kW and 1.64% respectively.
