To manufacture alumina products, sintering and grinding process are needed. In Al2O3 grinding, macro/micro surface fracture and cracks are easily occurred on the ground surface because of its high brittleness. In view point of fatigue fracture, surface profile produced by grinding is considered as notches. Therefore, it was reasonable that magnitudes and shapes of surface profiles effects on fatigue strength and life. Particularly, surface finish of Al2O3 which have high hardness and brittleness have an effect on fatigue strength. In this paper, some experiments are carried out to examine influence of grinding conditions to magnitude and shape of surface profile as well as the relationships of Ra, Rmax, Rmax/Ra, and Ku. Through the experimental results, It is found that Ra and Rmax was affected by grinding conditions, but Rmax/Ra and Ku was not. There are linear relations between Ra and Rmax, and between Rmax/Ra and Ku.

실리카글라스를 기초로 하는 PLC소자는 가격, 광 손실 성질과 광섬유와의 결합효율이 좋아 광통신에 응용되어지고 있으며 Ge 도핑된 실리카 글라스는 PLC소자의 코어물질로 널리 사용되고 있다. 소작제작을 위해서는 높은 식각률과 깨끗하고 적은 표면손상을 얻어야 하므로 유도결합플라즈마를 이용한 건식식각공정개발이 이루어 져야 한다. 본 연구에서는 Ge 도핑된 실리카글라스의 식각특성을 연구하기 위해 $C_2$F/6 와 NF$_3$가스를 사용하였고 ICP power, bias power, 압력, 플라즈마와 샘플간의 거리를 변화시키면서 식각속도, 표면거칠기, 메사수직도, 마스크선택도등 기본공정 조건을 연구하고 첨가가스(CH$_4$, $O_2$), 마스크 물질(Ni, Cr, PR) 도핑농도(0.3, 0.45, 0.7%)등을 변화시키면서 식각특성을 연구하였다. 그 결과 300nm/min, 정도의 식각속도를 가지고 수직한 메사각도(~89$^{\circ}$)와 미려한 표면(표면거 칠기 1.5nm 이하)를 갖는 결과를 얻었다.

This paper is concerned with the surface roughness and the bending strength of ground workpiece in ZrO2 ceramic grinding. Surface roughness was measured with surface tracer and bending strength value was obtained by three-point bending test on machining center using tool dynamometer. Grinding experiments were carried out to examine the effects of grinding conditions including diamond mesh size, table speed, and depth of cut on ground surface roughness. The correlation between surface roughness and bending strength was also inspected. The experimental results indicate that the rougher surface is produced as the mesh size of diamond wheel is reduced and table speed is increased, but surface roughness is not affected by depth of cut. The values of bending strength decrease as the values of Ra, Rmax and Ku increase.

Die sinking electrical discharge machining(EDM) was conducted for ceramic composite of 33 weight percent TiC based on AI$_{2}$O$_{3}$ ceramic matrix according to the change of current and duty factor(DF). Material removal rate(MRR) was increased as the current and the duty factor increased, but better surface mor-pholoty was obtained in the region of lower current and duty factor. From the scanning electron microscopy(SEM) photographs and the energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy(EDX) of the EDMed surface, EDM trace formed by one discharge spark was analyzed. Although the bending strength after EDM was highly decreased, reliability obtained by weibull analysis was increased twice. The bending strength was recovered or more by barrel polishing after EDM. From the FEM analysis of temperature for one spark, the possible melting region of AI$_{2}$O$_{3}$and TiC was obtained.

The effect of the numbers of processing on the punch and surface roughness of die block in the W-EDM, which is frequently used to manufacture parts of press die is studied. W-EDM equipment(Sodic A500H), the application of which has increased for its precision, is used in the process three times. To inspect the roughness of the three-time-processed dimension of the punch and the die, the surface roughness measuring instrument(System 5000 of Federal) is used.

Conductive veramic matrix composite(CMC) workpiece of TiC 33%/Al /sab 2/O /sab 3/ 66% Y /sab 2/ O /sab 3/ was machined by die sinking electrical discharge machining(EDM) according to different pulse duration and suty factor for reverse polarity of electrode. Material removal rate(MRR) was examined by process under various operating conditions. The surface morphology was evaluated by surface roughness values and scanning electron microscopy(SEM) research. The more MRR was obtained according to increase pulse duration and duty factor. Also the maximum surface roughness(Rmax) of EDMed surface was slightly changed with increased pulse duration and duty factor. The SEM photographs of EDMed surface showed wide recast wide recast distribution region of melting materials in purse duration 0.130(ms) than 0.048(ms).

The experimental study of die-sinking electrical discharge machining(EDM) was conducted for Cold Die Alloy Steel of SKD-11 with rotary electrode according to the peak current of 11A, 15A and 19A, and the duty factor of 0.24, 0.45. dielectric fluid flow through the electrode inside according to the change of electrode internal diameter during the EDM working. Material removal rate(MRR) was increased with flushing & rotation of electrode at the condition for the peak current of 15A, 19a but the MRR is decreased at the flushing only. The more surface roughness was obtained for the case of the flushing & rotation under the peak current of 19A.
