The bearing clearance is influenced by shrink fit and thermal expansion during operation. The designer must take into account the reduction of clearance after installation to the interference fits, and thermal expansion must be considered. The purpose of this study is to grasp the internal clearance variation and behavior of a bearing which is a deep connected with fatigue life of bearing and performance of spindle through FEM(Finite Element Method). Finite element analysis is performed by using commercial code ANSYS according to variation of thermal condition and rotational speeds. This paper presents correct negative internal clearance according to temperature during operation. Furthermore, interrelation between thermal expansion and contraction are presented to maintain adequate contact force for three type of spindle system (HSK-A60, HSK-40E, HSK-32E). The influence of the centrifugal force and Internal clearance variation of bearing is studied to operating rotational speed.

In this paper, the machining characteristics of high speed ball end milling affected by the rotational error of high speed spindle using air bearing are investigated. The error motions of a spindle have generally influenced on the surface roughness, the form accuracy, the tool life, etc. in end milling. Experiments are carried out over a wide range of rotational speeds(10,000-50,000rpm). The rotational errors of the spindle are measured by the gap sensor mounted on the spindle shaft at various cutting speeds. The relations between the surface roughness and the spindle error motion are presented. Results show that the rotational accuracy of the spindle directly affects the surface roughness of the machined surface.

The $WS_2$ solid lubricant synthesized through the vapour phase transport method was coated on the commercial bearing steel (SUJ 2) substrate, and the tribological behaviour of the lubricant was investigated using a ball-on-disk type tester. The $WS_2$ powder was spray-coated at room temperature using compressed air, and the change of friction coefficient was examined in various conditions, i.e., specimen configuration, atmosphere (air and nitrogen), applied load and rotating speed. $WS_2$ coated ball and disk showed the optimum friction coefficient of 0.07 and wear life of 45,000 cycles in the nitrogen atmosphere under 0.3 kgf and 100 rpm, whereas relatively high coefficient of 0.13 and reduced wear life of 4,000 cycles were observed in air atmosphere. The effect of rotating speed on the friction coefficient was not observed both in nitrogen and in air atmospheres. This confirmed that the spray-coated $WS_2$ solid lubricant was effective in reducing the friction coefficient and improving wear life in nitrogen atmosphere, and the oxygen and moisture existing in air could seriously deteriorate the lubrication effect of $WS_2$ coating layer.

This paper introduces the effect of grease on the degradation characteristics of bearings used as key components of packaging equipment and automation systems. Bearings parts are installed to fix and support the rotating body of the system, and performance degradation of the bearings has a great effect on the life of the system too. When bearings are used in various devices and systems, the grease is applied to reduce friction and improve fatigue life. Determining the type of lubricant (grease) is important because it has a great influence on the operating environment and lifespan and ensures long lifespan of systems and facilities. However, studies that simultaneously compared and analyzed the change in mechanical degradation characteristics and the comparison of chemical degradation characteristics according to grease types under actual operating conditions are insufficient. In this paper, three types of small harmonic drive, high-load reducer, and low-load reducer grease used in power transmission joint modules are experimentally selected and finally injected into ball bearings with a load (19,500N) to improve bearing durability. Degradation characteristics were tested by attaching to test equipment. At this time, after the durability test under the same load conditions, the mechanical degradation characteristics, that is temperature, vibration according to the three greases types. In addition, the chemical degradation characteristics of the corresponding grease was compared to present the results of mutual correlation analysis.

This paper presents the development of the design of the robot element. Robot element design is an important part of robot design since it decides the performance and life time of the robot. It is necessary that the robot kinematics and the robot dynamics are accomplished to design the robot elements. The robot kinematics and dynamics determine the design parameters of the element. We developed a robot element design program with which a designer can design the robot element with convenience and reliability. The program is composed of motor, harmonic driver and ball-screw design. The program is founded on the virtual robot design program. The virtual robot design program is the powerful software which may be used to solve various problems of the robot kinematics and dynamics. The robot element design program may be used to calculate the design parameters of the element that are necessary to design robot element. Therefore, the designer can decide upon the available robot elements available to perform the objective of the robot. The robot element design program is expected to increase the competitiveness and efficiency of the robot industry.

In this study, we apply an ultrasonic nanocrystal surface modification (UNSM) technique to radial journal bearings (JBs) and disks made of SUJ2 and SCM440, respectively. We investigate frictional properties of untreated and UNSM-treated specimens using a ball-on-disk tester. We construct the Stribeck curve at the boundary, under mixed and full hydrodynamic lubrication conditions for the specimens using friction data obtained from JB tests. The friction at the boundary lubrication condition and the transition period to mixed lubrication condition on the UNSM-treated specimens is reduced, which improves the service life of JBs. The major effects of this reduction in the three lubrication regimes can be explained in the terms of improved mechanical properties and the presence of micro dimples. Moreover, we estimate the friction and fatigue properties of SCM440 specimens using a ball-on-disk specimen under dry and oil-lubricated conditions. Friction test results reveal that the UNSM-treated specimens show lower friction coefficient than the untreated specimens under both dry and oil-lubricated conditions. We evaluate the fatigue properties of SCM440 specimens by calculating the Hertzian stress with respect to the failure cycles. Fatigue tests results also reveal that the UNSM-treated specimens possess a longer fatigue life than the untreated specimens. The improved properties are effective in increasing the energy efficiency of bearings.

Microporous polymer lubricants(MPLs) are solid polymer materials containing micropores which are filled with liquid lubricants, and which are molded or formed to suit rolling bearings or other machine parts requiring lubrication. MPLs can be effectively applied to provide long-term, maintenance-free lubrication of a variety of machine elements without fully replacing of oils and greases. The application of rolling bearings packed fully with an MPL could reduce or eliminate the problems such as grease deterioration, leakage, under-lubrication caused by insertion of water or foreign matters under severe operation conditions. This paper discuss the application of MPLs for lubrication of rolling ball bearings. Two different MPLs were synthesized and the features of MPLs were tested. Characteristics of the bearings which are packed fully with synthesized MPLs were investigated using SEM, TG/DSC, extents of oil leakage, OIT, and life time test. After these preliminary tests twelve MPLs were synthesized and evaluated by measuring extents of oil leakage and OIT values. Then synthesis conditions for the optimum MPL were selected by SSRED(Six Sigma Robust Engineering Design) pro gram using extents of oil leakage and OIT values respectively. The optimum MPL by means of OIT value showed higher performance such as long life time and application at higher temperature of $140^{\circ}C$ than previous temperature of $100^{\circ}C$.

We investigated the thermal characteristics of rotating anode X-ray tube to develop it for digital radiography by using computer simulation. The target which is the area of the anode struck by electrons is the most important component to get a long life of X-ray tube. So we analyze the thermal characteristics of the target and rotor assembly according to their emissivity by using ANSYS transient thermal simulation and then compare with the measured data of the target temperature operating in aging process of X-ray tube. Especially, keeping the lead coated layer as the role of metal lubricant on ball bearing enables to prevent the noise in rotating anode. The simulation result showed that its temperature was under the melting point of the lead in X-ray tube for digital radiography with 1.2 mm large focal spot 0.6 mm small focal spot and 150 kV tube voltage. We also investigated the relationship between the diameter of the anode shaft and the temperature of the anode and rotor assembly. It has been confirmed that the smaller anode shaft could be good for the rotor thermal characteristics.

금-은 함유 황화광물 정광으로부터 Au와 Ag를 용출시키기 위하여 황화광물 정광을 건식과 습식으로 전처리하였다. 전처리한 황화광물에 대하여 광물학적 연구와 티오요소 용출실험을 수행하였다. 평균입도와 등전위는 정광시료에서 보다 건식 전-처리 시료에서 낮게 나타났고, 건식 전-처리 시료 보다 습식 전-처리 시료에서 더 낮게 나타났다. XRD 분석결과, 습식 전-처리 시료에서만 비정질의 특성이 나타났다. 정광시료에서, 최대의 Au, Ag 용출인자는 1.0 g의 티오요소, 1.0 M의 황산제2철, 2.0 M의 황산 농도에서 그리고 $60^{\circ}C$의 용출온도에서였다. Au, Ag용출률은 건식 전-처리 시료에서 보다 습식 전-처리 시료에서 언제나 많이 그리고 빠르게 나타났다. 따라서, 향후 적당한 미분쇄 첨가제와 시간으로 전처리를 수행하고 비-시안 용매를 적용한다면 친환경적으로 Au, Ag를 용출시킬 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
