The long neck flange is used to connect piping arrangements where the lap joint is applied. Generally, the component can be manufactured by welding, but this method is both time and cost intensive. Embrittlement at the heat affected zones was also considered. A spinning method developed to improve the manufacturing process and solve the problems of welding. The flange area of the long neck flange can be formed by changing the direction of the metal flow, from axial to radial, while maintaining pressure by using an outer mold and a lap roller. A modified process was additionally developed using a round roller rather than the outer mold. In this modification, the round roller can form the shape of all sizes of long neck flange. Using these flexible methodologies, the cost to prepare outer molds and the time to install and remove the molds can be significantly reduced.

The separation mechanism is installed to separate a note one by one from the stacked notes and the overlap type, one of separation mechanism, has been used a lot in financial equipments like ATM. This paper has compared and estimated analysis results using finite element method with experimental results over various parameters such as conditions of note, overlap value, roller shapes, which affect the friction force (resistance) exerting on notes between rollers. Consequently, the effect of various parameters on the performance of overlap type separation mechanism can be known and optimal shape and overlap value can be obtained.

연속공정이 가능한 Roll to Roll sputter system을 이용하여 플렉시블 indium tin oxide(ITO) 투명전극을 PET(polyethlyene terephthalate) 기판위에 성막하였다. 연속 성막공정을 위해 Roll to Roll sputter system에서의 unwinder roller와 rewinder roller를 이용한 servomotor의 rolling으로 기판의 움직임이 완벽히 제어되었으며, 외부 응력으로 부터의 안정성 및 성막 공정 시의 PET 기판의 열적 변형을 최소화하기 위한 접촉식 냉각방식의 cooling system을 main drum으로 사용하였다. 또한 고분자 기판과 투명전극 사이의 adhesion을 향상시키기 위한 전처리 공정으로 gridless linear ion beam source를 pretreatment system으로 구축하였다. 이렇게 제작된 Roll to Roll sputter system을 이용하여 PET 기판위에 연속공정을 통해 ITO 투명전극을 성막하였다. 성막된 플렉시블 ITO/PET 투명전극은 XRD, HREM, SEM 분석을 통하여 main drum의 cooling에 의해 완전한 비정질 구조를 나타내었음을 확인할 수 있었으며, 비록 Roll to Roll sputter system을 통하여 상온에서 성막 되었음에도 불구하고 최적화 된 조건에서 가시광선 영역 83.46 %의 높은 광투과도 값과 47.4 Ohm/square의 비교적 낮은 먼저항 값을 얻을 수 있었다. 또한 Bending test 결과를 통하여 ion source의 전처리 공정으로 굽힘/평의 반복적 응력에 따른 전기적 특성 열화를 최소화 할 수 있음을 보였다. 최적화된 플렉시블 투명전극을 이용하여 P3HT:PCBM 기반의 플렉시블 유기태양전지를 제작하였으며, 제작된 유기태양전지로부터 1.88%의 power conversion efficiency (PCE)을 확보함으로써 플렉시블 유기태양전지 제작을 위한 ITO/PET 투명전극 성막 공법으로써 Roll to Roll sputter system의 적용가능성을 확인할 수 있었다.

Flexible displays have been evolved into curved, foldable, and rollable as the degree of bending increases. Due to the presence of brittle electrodes (e.g. indium-tin oxide (ITO)) that easily cracked and delaminated under severe bending deformation, lowering mechanical stress of the electrodes has been critical issue. Because of this, mechanical stress of brittle electrode in flexible displays has been analyzed mostly in terms of bending radius. On the other hand, in order to make rollable display, various mechanical components such as roller and spring are needed to roll-up or extend the screen for the rollable display apparatus. By these mechanical components, brittle electrode in the rollable display is subjected to the excessive tensile stress due to the retracting force as well as the bending stress by the roller. In this study, mechanical deformation of rollable OLED display was modeled considering boundary conditions of the apparatus. An analytical modeling based on the classical beam theory was introduced in order to investigate the mechanical behavior of the rollable display. In addition, finite element analysis (FEA) was used to analyze the effect of mechanical components in the apparatus on the brittle electrode. Furthermore, a strategy for improving the mechanical reliability of the rollable display was suggested through controlling the stiffness of adhesives in the display panel.

The Roll-to-Roll system including continuous flexible thin materials and roller has its wide range of applications especially in the electronic printing industry. The industry is growing rapidly and the printing speed is also improving. However, the printing machine based on web and roller system has it own problem. As the web speed increases, the failure to wet the surface may occur and the air entrains between the liquid and the paper web. Air bubbles may remain attached to the paper web causing defects on product surface. With the development of image processing technique, the air airflow around the web and rolls can be visualized and calculated by PIV method. In our experiment, the simple web and rolls system is used to R2R simulator. The flow field is studied at various web speeds and positions. The result shows that the flow field has complicated structure with turbulent characteristic and the main trend of flow is obtained by taking time average of flow field.

A designer is mainly supported by two essential factors in design decisions. These two factors are intelligence and experience aiding the designer by predicting the interconnection between the required design parameters. Through classification of product data and similarity recognition between new and existing designs, it is partially possible to replace the required experience for an inexperienced designer. Given this context, the current paper addresses a framework for recognition and flexible retrieval of similar models in product design. The idea is to establish an infrastructure for transferring design as well as the required PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) know-how to the design phase of product development in order to reduce the design time. Furthermore, such a method can be applied as a brainstorming method for a new and creative product development as well. The proposed framework has been tested and benchmarked while showing promising results.

We have manufactured low-curable silver pastes for gravure printing out of roll to roll printing process. When printing, the pastes be used different silver powder shape because of the printing characteristics. The pastes were prepared with silver powder by silver powder shape, polyester resin, solvent and homogenized on a standard three-roller mill. And the pastes exhibited a shear-thinning flow at viscosity profile. Moreover the adhesive strength and resistivity of silver film had good characteristics. With the manufactured paste in this study, RFID antenna circuit had flexible is manufactured and it had $10^{-4}{\sim}10^{-5}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$.

The possibility of suppressing critical speeds by using electromagnetic actuators (EMAs) is assessed experimentally in this paper. The system studied is composed of a horizontal flexible shaft supported by two ball bearings at one end and one roller bearing that is located in a squirrel cage at the other end. Four identical EMAs supplied with constant current are utilized. The EMAs associated to the squirrel cage constitutes the hybrid bearing. Results obtained, show that the constant current, when applied to the EMAs, produces a shift of the first critical speed toward lower values. Moreover, the application of constant current for a speed interval around the critical speed enables a smooth run-up or run-down without crossing any resonance.

A numerical method is proposed to synthesize automotive cam profiles. An arbitrary acceleration profile for the cam follower motion is divided into several segments, each of them is described by a Hermite curve. A cam profile is defined by control point locations and control variables assigned to each segment. Closed form equations are derived for velocity and displacement constraints which should be satisfied for the curve to be a cam profile. Because the method is flexible and provide arbitrary local controllability, any types of cam acceleration profile can be reproduced by the method. The method is expecially useful for the design of roller type OHC valve trains which need precise local control in the cam profile design to avoid under-cutting problems.
