A novel jewelry master pattern manufacturing process which reduce manufacturing steps by employing a Duraform rapid prototyping mold and a low melting alloy has been suggested. The novel process follows the steps of 'jewelry 3D CAD design ${\rightarrow}$ Durafrom RP mold ${\rightarrow}$ low melting alloy master pattern' while the previous process follows more complicated steps of 'jewelry idea sketch ${\rightarrow}$ detailed drawing ${\rightarrow}$ wax carving ${\rightarrow}$ flask ${\rightarrow}$ silver master pattern.' An upper and a lower part of molds have been manufactured of Duraform powder, of which melting point is $190^{\circ}C$. A maser pattern was manufactured by pouring a low melting alloy of Pb-Sn-Bi-Cd, so called Woods Metal, of which melting point is $70^{\circ}C$, into the mold. The master pattern is a shape of a disk of 20mm diameter that contains various design factors. The variations of dimensions, surface roughness, surface pore ratio were measured by an optical microscope, a surface roughness profilometer, and a Rockwell hardness tester. The pattern made of were maeasured by an optical microscope, a surface roughness profilometer, and a Rockwell hardness tester. The pattern made of low melting alloy has sufficient surface hardness, and surface pore ratio to be used as the jewelry master pattern.

To satisfy consumers' desire to enjoy their own individuality and cultural trends, the discovery of various materials and the expression of materials embodying their characteristics are increasingly important in the fashion jewelry industry. This study examines, paper mulberry fiber, a raw material of hanji that has been excavated as a new material for fashion jewelry, is durable as wall as, soft and easy to form, has a unique texture along with, excellent aesthetic quality, and expresses various colors, thereby differentiating itself from traditional fashion jewelry materials. The material itself also has symbolic significance as an approach to discovering new sustainable materials for fashion jewelry to ensure increased specificity of the product based on the premise of freedom of expression. The weight and optimal drying time of chicken fiber were derived for the study of fashion jewelry expression using the characteristics of paper mulberry fiber. The techniques of casting, deflection, packing and winding (winding beads with fibers and straps) were derived and four brooches were produced in total. This study is meaningful for the future of, the fashion jewelry industry as it presents the uses of new materials such as paper mulberry fiber to induce multidisciplinary consumption and to suggest a direction for the creation of new value-added products. Further, in order to expand the realm of fashion jewelry industry with our own competitive products that have secured our cultural identity and uniqueness in the global market, there must be continued follow-up research on mass production methods for industrialization.

Maintenance training is generally provided to teach employees new knowledge and techniques in order to increase their qualities. It means that the purpose of maintenance training is to increase an employee's knowledge or technique level and to maintain or increase their performance level through continuous training in their field, and the methods, contents and the level of training vary depending on the type of job they perform. Maintenance training is more important for jobs that require continuous technical increases or research, or for professional jobs that continuously require new knowledge and techniques. The purpose of this study is to provide quality service to consumers by responding to the rapidly changing jewelry distribution environment and to quickly and accurately acquire new and advanced jewelry inspection and appraisal techniques, and to contribute to the healthy consumption culture through a general quality increase in the jewelry industry.

Using the 3D printing method in the product manufacturing is a very innovative and useful technology. However, in the field of jewelry, it is a limited technology used only in a field of manufacturing process. To overcome this limitations in the jewelry production process, most popular and easy 3D printing method was selected, and the printing time and condition was limited. In this study, to find out the 3D printing method applicability to jewelry work manufacturing, the prototypes through casting and non-casting methods were completed and compared. As a result, the FDM printing method has a very positive advantage in terms of cost and time, but there is a disadvantage that the layered structure is not erased on the surface and the completeness of the surface forming is poor due to the residue of the filament generated during the printing process. The DLP printing method has the advantage that the surface treatment is even and completion is high, while the cost and time are inefficient. However, both printing methods were found to be suitable for the use of jewelry manufacturing, and if the efficient printing method was selected for the design of the jewelry in the future, better work research could be conducted.

Casting process includes wax pattern, investment, dewaxing, curing, casting, etc., and each single process is important to achieve a good result. Since 2000, 3D printers have been developed and widely used; as more prefer UV Curavle resin method over wax method, resultant casting defects have become worse. To resolve such problem, preceding research revealed casting defects of existing wax method. In particular, defects of UV Curavle resin method showed difference in investment, dewaxing, deresinating and curing compared to the existing one. Accordingly, results were presented through casting tests; especially, a temperature rising curve only for UV Curavle resin was shown rather than one for the existing method. Lastly, this research classified those not available with direct casting and suggested mold manufacturing. This research is expected to be useful for 3D printer users or those who would conduct direct casting with UV Curavle resin.
