In order to reduce the production cost and improve the quality of dairy feed, several dairy feed mill model suitable for Korean farm size are developed. Also, capital requirement and operating costs of the model mill are analyzed. And these analyzed data are compared with the commercial feed production cost, in order to test whether the model mills are suitable or not in Korean dairy farm. Also optimum model is recommended depending on size of dairy farm. As a result, developed model mill(TMR) is very useful in Korea dairy farm not only reduce production cost up to 78% but also improve the qualities.

Most of Korean feed mill has a pregrind system which was suitable for the processing of less number of ingredients and finished products, and good for the mash type feed product. But industries has been changed in production volume and cost, and also from mash to further processed products such as pelleted and extruded. Therefore, Korea feed industries now should change the process, especially the grinding system from the current pregrind to other grind system, but this change will cost a lot of investment and also loosing current grinding system, and should have production shut down during the construction period. To solve these problems, combined grinding system based on a new model mill has been developed. The combined grind system is combination of pregrind and postgrind system, which has the advantages of those two grind systems, and also which can allow to utilize existing pregrind system continuously without any production interruption due to new postgrind system construction. This newly developed model has been applied to the feed mill expansion project of `B`feed company in 1994, and it was very successful application and showed excellent results as we intended. The new model mill, combined grind system applied can save fixed asset investment because old pregrind system can be used as is, and also can reduce production cost and improve product quality. And the possibility of critical production shut down can be much lowered. Within this new grinding model development, multi-screen combination system has been developed for the better grinding texture quality and safer operation. This new model mill with combined grind system will be applied by most feed manufacturing plant and may enhance their production competitiveness, and the further study and development should be continued.

The aviation industry has grown beyond the simple processing and assembling of aircraft parts and now designs and exports finished aircraft. In this study, the vertical CNC milling rotational speed and feed rate were parameters to investigate the life of tools according to their shape: (flat, round, and ball end mill) in the rough cutting of titanium. These tools are widely used in aircraft manufacturing and assembly. The purpose of this study is to measure the cutting temperature generated during the cutting process and calculate the rate of tool wear. This will be accomplished by measuring the tool weight before and after cutting the specimen and to compare it with the results of previous studies. Our study showed that the maximum cutting temperature increased as cutting time, tool rotational speed, and feed rate increased. The highest cutting temperatures were recorded for the ball, round, and flat end mill, respectively. Tool wear for the ball, round, and flat end mill increased as the speed and feed rate increased. The flat end mill exhibited the highest rate of wear from a minimum of 0.62% to a maximum of 2.88%.

In an attempt to compare the mash and pelleting costs, individual production costs of eash mash and pelleting are analyzed. For the analysis, Park's model (1982) are used. According to the results of the analysis, the following conclusions are made. 1. Total energy cost for pelleting is 4 times higher than that for mash feed production. 2. Labor cost for pelleting is 20 % higher than that of mash feed. 3. Capital requirements for pelleting feed mill is approximately 20 % higher than that for mash feed mill when feed mill size is 200 ton/day. 4. Total production cost for pelleting is from 30 % to 50 % higher than that for mash feed when mill size ranges from 100 ton/day to 400 ton/day.

The rotary feed axes of a 5-axis machine tool can increase the freedom of the tool posture, while reducing feed speed and rigidity. In addition, as a ball-end mill is inevitably used during machining by rotational feed, the step-over length is reduced compared to the flat-end mill, thereby reducing the material removal rate. Therefore, this study attempts to improve the material removal rate, feed speed, and machining stability using the corner radius flat-end mill and a fixed controlled machining method for the rotary feed axes during roughing. In addition, the tapered ball-end mill and simultaneously controlled machining method for the rotary feed axes were used for finishing to improve the propeller's 5-axis machining efficiency by enhancing the surface quality. In order to create the tool path effectively and easily, we propose a specific approach for using the propeller's geometric properties and evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed method by comparing it with the method of the dedicated module.

The Surface, generated by end milling operation, is deteriorated by tool runout, vibration, friction, tool deflection, etc. Especially in cornering cut, surface accuracy is usually determined by varying cutting forces, which causes tool deflections. Cutting conditions like feed rate is usually kept constant during machining a part, which causes dimensional error in severe cutting. Cornering cut is a typical example of deterioration of surface accuracy when constant feed rate is applied. Therefore it becomes important to develop NC post processor module to determine optimal cutting conditions in various cutting situations. In this paper, cutting force is predicted in cornering cut with flat end mill and feed rate is determined by constraining constantly resultant force. Also some control characteristics of CNC machining center are evaluated.

This study was conducted to investigate how much total feed cost can be curtailed by the application of linear programming compared with the conventional hand calculating method in determining the feed formula in feed mill. Data were collected from a feed mill producing 19 different kinds of feed and having capacity of producing 5,000 tons of feed a month. According to the results of analysis, the least-cost feed formulation by linear programming showed a decrease of 4,793,172 won monthly in total feed cost as compared with the conventional hand calculating method. But, to confirm the results of this study, it is necessary to conduct further emperical studies.

In this study, we study the change of surface roughness during cutting machining by changing the cutting conditions such as feed rate and spindle velocity with chromium molybdenum steel (SCM415) material and TiCN and TiAlN coated end mill tools. The surface roughness value of the test specimen for SCM415, was found to be 3,000 rpm in TiCN coated end mill and $0.634{\mu}m$ in surface roughness at a feed rate of 100 mm/min. In the TiAlN coated end mill, 300 mm/min, the surface roughness was the best at $0.699{\mu}m$. The overall average surface roughness of each coating tool was better than that of TiAlN.

For the purpose of estimating the operating cost for feed production, energy consumption, labor requirement, maintenance cost, and supplies and miscellaneous costs are analyzed and developed as mathematical models. Mathematical model for energy usage Consists of electrical energy, boiler fuel energy and vehicle fuel energy. The mathematil model for electrical energy usage for the swine and poultry feed mill and the complete pelleted feed mill are developed, based on the general model mill and the computer program for its design developed in Kansas State University (Park, 1982). Also, the boiler fuel energy consumption model and the vehicle fuel energy consumption model are developed by analyzing the boiler system and the vehicle operation in the warehouse. In order to develop a mathematical model for labor requirement, the data that Vosloh (1968, 1976) constructed for labor requirement in his model mill are used by assuming that his model mill is similar to this model, in terms of labor assignment standards. Maintenance and repair costs are obtained by assuming to be 5.5% of the total capital investment cost. Also, supplies and miscellaneous costs are estimated by using Vosloh's report and it is approximately 0.87 dollars per ton based on daily production.
