In the previous paper, part I, the principal stresses were investigated on the normal tools and the workpieces whose materials were the same epoxy resin. In this paper, are measured and compared the stresses on the normal tools and restricted tools which have three various rake angles. Each restricted tool above has the same restricted angle. The workpieces used in this experiment are made of high quality lead. The photoelastic measuring device is attached to the saddle of the lathe and carried at the same speed as the cutting tool is feeded. The results obtained are summarized as follows; The shear stresses on the tip of the restricted tools of the rake angle .alpha.=12.deg. and .alpha.=0.deg. are less than those of normal tools. But, for the rake angle .alpha.=-12.deg., the former is greater than the latter. The result of photoelastic method shows that in the range of rapid decreasing of normal stress on the tool edge, the shear is maintaining a certain value.

In the machining process, variation in cutting forces results in relative displacements between the tool and the workpiece leading to tool vibration. Also there is a demand to change the depth of cut very frequently. One solution for the both cases is to develop a system which has the ability to reposition a cutting tool to a very small level, i.e., micron. This paper presents the development of a micropositioner using a magnetostrictive material. The developed micropositioner is implemented to a lathe and subjected to various tests. The results show that the micropositioner with a magnetostrictive actuator has good potential for machining application.

The machine tool which operates by hand is replacing by CNC machine tool to improve the quality of the product and the productivity in modem mechanic industry. The precision of machine part is influenced greatly the surface roughness by cutting condition of machine tool. So this study was performed to examine the aluminium surface roughness of section according to change of strength rating, nose radius, cutting speed, using live center. The results of this study are as follows; 1. In the case of 56mm diameter of test piece(length is below triple of diameter), whether establish the live center or not, doesn't influence to the surface roughness, and it is possible to make product without the live center. 2. The average surface roughness of 42mm diameter(length is quadruple of diameter) is similar to the 56mm diameter in the cutting condition of nose radius 0.8mm and cutting speed 140mm/min, but there are increases and differences in other cutting conditions. 3. In the case of test piece length more 70m/min(140m/mm) and nose radius improved greatly using the live center. 4. In the case of test piece length is quintuple of diameter, the nose radius must choose big tool and increase the cutting speed in preference live center establishment availability to improve that is surface roughness. Conclusively, if aluminum test piece length is fewer than triple of diameter, can process without establishing live center. If aluminum test piece length is more than quintuple of diameter, cutting conditions to improve surface roughness are (1) cutting speed (2) nose radius (3) whether the live center uses or not.

We studied the heating characteristics of a whirling spindle. This spindle is an important component of a whirling machine for turning a ball screw shaft. In the manufacturing process for a conventional ball screw shaft, a single tool is used to form a spiral in a lathe machine tool. Thereafter, a high-frequency heat treatment process is performed. Recently, a whirling-type cutting method has emerged. This method can perform hard turning in the rotating direction of the spiral portion of the ball screw shaft by rotating and mounting multiple tools. The whirling method can be applied to the heat-treated material. In this study, an experimental apparatus was constructed to analyze the whirling spindle. The experiment proceeded in four steps. The rotating speed of the whirling spindle was set to ISO random and sequential rising conditions. Cooling and non-cooling modes in the cooling jacket were tested. As a result of the above experiment, the heating characteristics of the whirling spindle were derived.

This study was investigated the feasibility of AE application on in-process detection of tool fracture and chipping. Carbon steel SM45C workpiece with longitudinal slots was turned interruptedly on a lathe. AE RMS signal at tool fracture was observed and also the tangential force and the feed observed at the time of tool fracture, the levels of tangential force and the feed force at the time of fracture decrease considerably. In chipping, high level AE signal was observed but there were no changes of cutting force. Peak AE RMS squared is proportional to the area of tool fracture and resultant force. Fracture model of tool fracture is proposed as $V_{p}$ = $C_{1}$ $E_{1}$F(.DELTA. A)$_{0.5}$ and peak AE RMS shows strong correlation with the fracture parameter F(.DELTA.A)$^{0.5}$.

Laser Material Processing has been replaced the conventional machining systems - cutting, drilling, welding and surface modification and so on. Especially, LTH(Laser Transformation Hardening) process is one branch of the laser surface modification process. Conventionally, some techniques like a gas carburizing and nitriding as well as induction and torch heating have been used to harden the carbon steels. But these methods not only request post-machining resulted from a deformation but also have complex processing procedures. Besides, LTH process has some merits as : 1. It is easy to control the case depth because of output(laser power) adjustability. 2. It is able to harden the localized and complicated a.ea and minimize a deformation due to a unique property of a localized heat source. 3. An additional cooling medium is not required due to self quenching. 4. A prominent hardening results can be obtained. This study is related to the surface hardening of the rod-shaped carbon steel applied to the lathe based complex processing mechanism, a basic behavior of surface hardening, hardness distribution and structural characteristics in the hardened zone.

Surface texturing is a promising route to reduce the friction forces between two surfaces in sliding contact. To this end, the fabrication of micro dimples is one of the most widely used surface texturing methods. According to published results, textured surfaces with elliptical micro dimples offer the best friction performance. Therefore, we fabricated elliptical micro dimples on carbon steel (SM45C) by using dual frequency vibration assisted machining. High and low frequencies of 16.3 kHz and 230 Hz were applied to the 3D resonant elliptical vibrator. The 3D resonant elliptical vibrator with a triangular cubic boron nitride insert was assembled on a computer numerically controlled turning lathe. Oval micro dimples of various profiles were manufactured on carbon steel. In terms of the profile of the elliptical micro dimples, the experimental results indicated that the average micro dimple width and depth were 112 ㎛ and 7.7 ㎛. These dimensions are closely related to the cutting conditions and can be easily controlled.

This study has been performed to present a new automatic tool wear measurement by digital image processing. The purpose of this paper is to develop an automatic tool wear measuring system based on the image processing which can be applied to the quasi-real time measurement of the characteristics of insert tip in turning. Tool wear monitoring is one of the key-problems, for the development of control systems of modern unmanned factory which are not completely solved now. In oredr words at present complete qualitative and quantitative information on tool wear morphology is required, at least on the following aspects : flank wear, its dimensions and distribution on the maximum and mean values on VB pqrqmeter in the various zones of the wearland. crater wear, its main dimensions and values of KT parameters. This research has been performed to this technique made possible by designing a proper lighting system to the worn tool with following features : The flank wear is measured by observing the active cutting part from a proper direction and by lighting the wearland by a diffuser optic system. The crater wear is visualized by lighting the tool by a He-Ne gas laser system developed in this study. By means of this system it is research to evaluate classical parameters of tool wear and to have complete information about tool wear morphology.

The green and hard machining characteristics of dental ceramics are of great interest to dental industry. The green bodies of TZP/$Al_2O_3$ composites were prepared by the cold isostatic pressing, and machined on the CNC lathe using PCD (polycrystalline diamond) insert under various machining conditions. With increasing nose radius of PCD insert, surface roughness initially increased due to increased cutting resistance, but decreased by the onset of sliding fracture. The lowest surface roughness was obtained at spindle speed of 1,300 rpm and lowest feed rate. Hard bodies were prepared by pressureless sintering the machined green bodies at several temperatures. The grinding test for sintered hard body was conducted using electroplated diamond bur with different grit sizes. During grinding, grain pull out in the composite was occurred due to thermal expansion mismatch between the alumina and zirconia. The strength of the composite decreased with alumina contents, due to increased surface roughness and high monoclinic phase transformed during grinding process. The final polished samples represented high strength by the elimination of a phase transformation layer.
