우주망원경용 비구면 반사경 가공 공정은 고정입자 연삭, 자유입자 래핑, 연마의 순서를 따른다. 숙련공에 의한 경험적 공정조절에 의해 목표 비구면을 가공하는 전통적 연삭 공정에서는 수 ${mu}m$ 높이의 표면 밑 손상을 남기며 뒤이은 자유입자 래핑 및 연마 공정에서 이를 제거하며 가공한다. 본 연구는 컴퓨터 수치 제어 연삭 공정진화 모델을 개발하여, 연삭가공을 통해 반사경 표면조도 최소 40nm이하, 가공 예측정확도 20nm급을 이루었다. 구체적인 방법론으로 초정밀가공기의 연삭모듈을 이용하여 연삭 휠 입자의 크기, 이송속도, 공작물 회전선속도 등 연삭 변수를 변화시키며 직경 20, 100mm Zerodur 소재를 초기 연삭하였다. 초기 연삭 변수와 측정된 표면조도와의 관계를 경험적 해석과 다 변수 회귀분석 해석 방법을 통하여 공정조절용 수치 연삭 모델을 구성하였다. 정량적 공정제어는 입력된 연삭변수들로부터 가공 후 표면조도를 예측하고, 측정된 표면조도를 이용하여 수치연삭 모델을 개량한 후 다음 가공에서 측정될 표면조도를 예측하는 순으로 만복 진행되었다. 본 연구에서는 CNC 연삭공정조절로부터 최소 평균 표면조도 36nm, 예측정확도 ${pm}20nm$를 얻었다. 이 연구결과는 정량적 연삭공정제어 모델을 사용하여 자유입자 래핑 공정을 수행할 필요 없이 연삭에서 직접 연마 공정으로 진행할 수 있는 획기적인 공정 효율 향상을 의미한다.

This study introduces a recently designed desktop-sized NC turning system and its components. This machine is designed for the ultra-precise turning of parts with a diameter of 0.5-20 mm with minimum space usage for the machine. This study aims to achieve submicron-level accuracy of movements and good rigidity of the machine for precision machining using the desktop-sized machine. The components such as the main machine structure, air bearing servo spindle, and XZ stage with needle roller guides are designed, and the designed machine is built with a PC-based CNC controller. Its static and dynamic stiffness performances and positioning resolutions are tested. Through machining tests with single-crystal diamond tools, a form error less than $0.8{\mu}m$ and surface roughness (Ra) of $0.03{\mu}m$ for workpieces are obtained.

Cutting process has been automated due to progress of CNC and CAD/CAM, but polishing process has been only depended on experiential knowledge of expert. Polishing work for a curved surface die demands simple and repetitive operations but requires much time for its high precision. Therefore it is operated in the handiwork by skilled worker. However the workers intend to avoid gradually polishing work because of the poor environments such as dust and noise. In order to reduce the polishing time and solve the problem of shortage of skilled workers, it has been done some research for an automation of polishing. To automate the polishing process, a 2 axes polishing robot which is attached to a 3 axes machining center has been developed by our previous research. This automatic polishing robot is able to keep the polishing tool normal on the curved surface of die. Therefore its performance of polishing is improved because of always keeping the tool normal on the surface. In this paper, the smaller sized polishing robot is developed to improve polishing performance. And the controller for 2 axes polishing robot is developed. The controller is composed of TMS320C31 with high speed which is 40-ns instruction cycle time, RAM memory with 64K words, digital input with 64 bits, digital output with 32 bits, and D/A converter with 4 channels, which is 12 bits resolution. To evaluate polishing performance of this developed robot, polishing experiment for shadow mask was carried out.

Electric discharging machining (EDM) is commonly adopted to machine the precise and tiny part when it is difficult to meet the productivity and the tolerance by the conventional cutting method. The die-sinking EDM method works well to machine the micro-parts and the perpendicular wall of die and mould, whereas EDM drilling, called super drill, is excellent to machine the deep and narrow hole regardless the material hardness and the hole location. However, the electrode wear is rapid compared to the conventional cutting tool and makes it difficult to control the electrode feeding and to machine precisely. This paper presents an efficient method to estimate the electrode wear using hole pass-through experiment while the stochastic method is used to compensate for the estimation model. To validate the proposed method, the commercial EDM drill machine is used. The experiment result shows that the electrode wear amount can be predicted very precisely.

Fine microgroove is the key component to fabricate micro-grating, micro-grating lens and so on. Conventional groove fabrication methods such as etching and lithography have some problems in efficiency and surface integrity. This study deals with the creation of ultra-precision micro grooves using non-rotational diamond tool and CNC machining center. The shaping type machining method proposed in the study allows to produce V-shaped grooves of $40\mu{m}$ in depth with enough dimensional accuracy and surface. For the analysis of machining characteristics in micro V-grooving, three components of cutting forces and AE signal are measured and processed. Experimental results showed that large amplitude of cutting forces and AE appeared at the beginning of every cutting path, and cutting forces had a linear relation with the cross-sectional area of uncut chip thickness. From the results of this study, proposed micro V-grooving technique could be successfully applied to forming the precise optical parts like prism patterns on light guide panel of TFT-LCD.

This paper present an error compensation system and On-Machine Measurement(OMM) system for improving the machining accuracy of ultra-precision lathe. The Fast-Tool-Servo(FTS) driven by a piezoelectric actuator is applied for error compensation system. The controller is implemented on the 32bit DSP for feedback control of piezoelectric actuator. The control system is designed to compensates three kinds of machining errors such as the straightness error of X-axis slide, the thermal growth error of the spindle. and the squareness between spindle and X-axis slide. OMM is preposed to measure the finished profile of workpiece on the machine-tool using capacitive sensor with highly accurate ruby tip probe guided by air bearing. The data acquisition system is linked to the CNC controller to get the position of each axis in real-time. Through the experiments, it is founded that the thermal growth of spindle and tile squareness error between spindle and X-axis slide influenced to machining error more than straightness error of X-axis slide in small travel length. These errors were simulated as a sinusoidal signal which has very low frequency and the FTS could compensate the signal less than 30 m. The implemented OMM system has been tested by measuring flat surface of 50 mm diameter and shows measurement error less than 400 mm

A large particle accelerator requires an ultrahigh vacuum (UHV) system of average pressure under $1{\times}10^{-7}$ Pa for mitigating the impact of beam scattering from the residual gas molecules. The surface inside the beam ducts should be controlled with an extremely low thermal outgassing rate under $1{\times}10^{-9}Pa{\cdot}m^3/(s{\cdot}m^2)$ for the sake of the insufficient pumping speed. To fulfil the requirements, the aluminum alloys were adopted as the materials of the beam ducts for large accelerator that thanks to the good features of higher thermal conductivity, non-radioactivity, non-magnetism, precise machining capability, et al. To put the aluminum into the large accelerator vacuum systems, several key technologies have been developed will be introduced. The concepts contain the precise computer numerical control (CNC) machining process for the large aluminum ducts and parts in pure alcohol and in an oil-free environment, surface cleaning with ozonized water, stringent welding process control manually or automatically to form a large sector of aluminum ducts, ex-situ baking process to reach UHV and sealed for transportation and installation, UHV pumping with the sputtering ion pumps and the non-evaporable getters (NEG), et al. The developed UHV technologies have been applied to the 3 GeV Taiwan Photon Source (TPS) and revealed good results as the expectation. The problems of leakage encountered during the assembling were most associated with the vacuum baking which result in the consequent trouble shootings and more times of baking. Then the installation of the well-sealed UHV systems is recommended.

항공기 엔진 제작사들은 수치제어 공작기계를 운영하고 제어하기 위해 CAM 소프트웨어를 도입했다. 그러나 CAM 모델을 생성하는 일은 긴 시간이 걸리고 오류가 발생하기 쉽다. 이는 가공연산 및 절차를 수작업으로 정의하기 때문이다. CAM 모델을 자동으로 생성하기 위해, 특징형상 인식 기술들이 오래 전부터 연구되었다. 그러나 인식 범위가 제한적이기 때문에 제트엔진과 같이 복잡한 형상에는 완전히 적용할 수 없다. 본 연구에서는 형상 검색 기술을 이용해 CAD 모델로부터 CAM 모델을 빠르게 생성하는 새로운 방법을 제안한다. 이 방법에서는, 작업자가 한 개의 가공연산을 참조연산으로 지정하면, 동일한 가공형상을 가지는 형상들을 검색하고, 참조연산을 검색된 형상들의 위치로 복사한다. 제트엔진 압축기 케이스를 대상으로 한 실험을 통해 제안한 방법을 검증하였다.
