The old technique of sandblasting which has been used for paint of scale removing, deburring and glass decorating has recently been developed into a powder blasting technique for brittle materials, capable of producing micro structures larger than $100{\mu}m$. Recently, this technique is applied to fabrication of the glass cap for OELD packaging. But, micro crack is generated on the blasted glass, which cause to decrease fracture strength. In this paper, we investigated the effect of blasting parameters on surface characteristics, surface shape and fracture strength of the powder blasted glass surface.

Micro-machining, one of the non-traditional machining techniques, can achieve a wanted shape of the surface using metal dissolution with electrochemical reaction and can be applied to the metal such as high tension, heat resistance and hardened steel. The workpiece dissolves when it is positioned close to the tool electrode in electrolyte and the current is applied. Traditional machining has been used in the industries such as cutting, deburring, drilling and shaping. The aim of this work is to develop Micro-machining techniques for micro shape by establishing appropriate machining parameters of micro-machining

Burr makes trobles on manufacturing process due to deburring cost, quality of products and productivity. This paper described the results of experimental study on the influence of the cutting parameters on the formation of exit burrs in face milling. The cutting parameters were investigated changing exit angle, rake nagle , lead angle in tool geometry as well as feed per tooth. Also we carried out experimets on several materials. Using the result of experimental study, burr types are classified according to appearance and formation mechanism in exit burr and we are considered the burr formation in each type of burr.

In general there are many degrees of freedom(DOFs) in industrial robots. So they have many poses of several special end-effectors positions and orientations. For that reason, industrial robots are used in a wide scope of industrial applica-tions such as welding, spray painting, deburring, and so on. In this research, an off-line continuous path planning method based on linear interpolation with parabolic blend is developed. The method safely maintains the constant orientation for base frame and end-effectors path within allowable error and minimizes the number of segments in path. This algorithm may apply to welding and painting in which the orientation is particularly significant. The simulation study of cartesian curve is carried out to show the performance of this algorithm.

In general, three are many degrees of freedom (DOF) in industrial robots. That can generate several special end-effector's positions and orientations. For that reason, industrial robots are used in a wide scope of industrial applications such as welding, spray painting, deburring, and so on. In this research, new method is presented which safely maintain the desired constant end-effector's orientation and minimize the numbers of segments in path. These algorithms may apply to welding, painting, and assembling. The simulation study of straight line and circular motions in arc-welding operations is carried out to show the sure proof of these algorithms.

The old technique of sandblasting which has been used for paint or scale removing, deburring and glass decorating has recently been developed into a powder blasting technique for brittle materials, capable of producing micro structures larger than $100{\mu}m$. In this paper, we studied on the predictive modeling of material removal and surface roughness in powder blasting of glass by design of experiments. The surface characteristics and surface shape of powder blasted glass surface were tested under different blasting parameter. Finally, we proposed a predictive model for powder blasting process, and compared with experimental results.

At the exit stage of drilling, the burr generates and deburring process is required to remove it. Since the additional process reduces productivity, a burr minimization technique is necessary in the servo system of drilling machines. In this research, cutting force is modelled with tool geometry and the optimal velocity profile with which the desired cutting force maintains is generated to minimize burr. Experiments show that the proposed velocity profile tracking effectively minimizes burr compared to the constant velocity feed.

In electropolishing, the ion from the surface of the metal is eliminated by means of an electrical potential and current. Electropolishing is being generally known as a replacement for mechanical finishing. In addition to making a surface smoother, it is a more visible means of brightening, deburring, cleaning, stress-relieving and improving the physical characteristics of most metals and alloys. Therefore, the aim of the present study is to investigate the characteristic of electropolishing STS304 and A12024 in terms of current density, polishing time and electrode gap, etc.

Burr makes troubles on manufacturing process due to deburring cost, quality of products and productivity. This paper described the results of experimental study on the influence of the cutting parameters on the formation of exit burrs in face milling. Using the results of experimental study, burr types are classified and data bases are developed to predict burr formation result. From the CAD file for work geometry and the NC data for tool path, the exit angles are calculated at every edges. This program predicts the burr geometry at exit edges using the prediction algorithm and data bases which are developed experimentally. Simulation results on deformation strain and temperature are also available in specific 2-dimensional cutting conditions. Also algorithm which can determine the exit angle is proposed.

A burr has been defined as undesirable projection of material formed as a result of plastic flow from a cutting or shearing operation. It is unavoidable in all kinds of machining operation. As a result, burr makes troubles on manufacturing process due to deburring cost, quality of products and productivity. In this study, the primary interest is about exit burr. The burr formation mechanism in each type of burr is classified. Data bases are developed to predict burr formation result. In the milling operation, we develop an algorithm to analyze the burr formation mechanism by the geometrical analysis on the multi featured workpiece with multi cutting path. The algorithm includes three steps, i. e., the feature identification, the cutting condition identification, and the analysis on exit burr formation. We can predict which portion of workpiece would have the exit burr in advance so that we can manage to find a way to minimize the exit burr formation in an actual cutting. Also, this algorithm can be implemented in a commercial CAM package so that we can simulate the NC code to review the burr formation in advance.
