Recent industrial requirements for highly precise shape processing have brought the electric discharge machining (EDM) in great need. High precision in EDM is primarily achieved by high performance controllers. However there exists inherent precision loss due to structural micro-deformation. On this background, we study structural deformation characteristics of wire cut EDM via finite element (FE) analysis and axiomatic design. Two different wire cut EDMs are selected as analysis models. 3D CAD package I-Deas is first used to construct FE models of wire cut EDMs, and then ABAQUS FE code is used for following structural analysis. Pertinency of FE mesh refinement is discussed in terms of η -factor. It is shown that performance accuracy of EDM depends strongly on the structural characteristics. Some design enhancements are suggested in an axiomatic design point of view. Finally we provide weight and temperature induced displacement discrepancies between wire end points as position functions of each subframe.

기계 가공에서 사용되는 엔드밀의 사용 시, 공작물과 엔드밀 사이에 발생되는 응력과 밀링기계의 회전력과 공작물 가공에 사용되는 압력으로 인한 세 가지 엔드밀 모델들의 구조적 변형들을 시뮬레이션 해석에 의해서 연구한다. 이 결과들은 구조 및 피로해석으로 이루어진다. 해석 결과, Model 1이 Model 2나 Model 3보다 덜 변형되는 것을 알 수 있다. 그리고 최대 등가응력은 Model 1이 다른 형상의 모델에 비하여 가장 작은 것을 확인할 수 있으며, 3개의 모델 중 Model 1이 다른 모델에 비하여 더 큰 힘을 견딜 수 있을 것으로 사료된다. 본 연구의 결과를 엔드밀의 설계에 응용한다면, 그 파손 방지 및 내구성을 검토하는데 유용하게 활용될 것으로 사료된다.

Unlike the roll-to-roll process that uses a steel roll and a nip roll, a vacuum roll can hold and transfer a thin film using a single roll. To precisely manufacture a vacuum roll, a thin outer cylinder must be machined, which is assembled on the outside of the roll and contacts the film via vacuum pressure. In this study, the effects of jaw width and chucking force on the deformation of the outer cylinder during the turning process were investigated using analysis, and a precision machining and burr removal process was developed. The deformation of the outer cylinder decreased almost linearly with increasing jaw width and increased with higher chucking force and larger cylinder diameter. Additionally, the deflection due to the weight of the outer cylinder was approximately three times greater than that caused by film tension. For the machined outer cylinder, a burr removal experiment was conducted, and concentricity and cylindricity were measured. Using a device that removes burrs by rotating a wheel connected to the main shaft at high speed, it was found that burrs generated on the inner diameter could be removed very efficiently. On the vacuum side, the concentricity errors of the inner and outer diameters were 0.015 mm and 0.014 mm, respectively, and on the opposite side, they were 0.006 mm and 0.010 mm, respectively. Additionally, the measurement of Total Indicator Runout (TIR) according to the angle showed that the maximum cylindricity of the outer and inner diameters was 0.02 mm and 0.025 mm, respectively. Finally, through burr-height measurement at the hole boundary, it was found that the heights were within 0.05 mm.

A thin metal plate such as detent spring has the shape deformation due to the phenomenon of spring back after press machining and heat treatment process. This requires the correction of spring shape and force in final inspection process. To do correction of the shape deformation the impact force is manually applied to the bended part of detent spring after measuring the shape deformation and spring force. To develop the automatic spring force correction system, applied force of occurring plastic deformation must be derived from the experimental method. But frequent change of spring shape and material makes it difficult to accomplish the experimental method to be applied. This paper describes the analytical method for detent spring force correction system is to be substituted for the experimental method. FEM(Finite Element Method) is used to find the boundary value between elastic and plastic deformation in the analytical method. To confirm the validity of the analytical method, the result of two methods is compared each other at various applied force conditions. It shows that the simulation result of the analytical method is consistent with the result of the experimental method within the error bound ${\pm}$5%. The result of this paper is useful for development of the automatic spring correction system and reduction of the complicated and tedious processes involved in experimental method.

Recently, investment in the aerospace industry has increased, and titanium alloys have been widely adopted for manufacturing parts in the aerospace industry. The Ti-6Al-4V alloy has high strength in high-temperature and high-pressure environments and is evaluated as a material with excellent heat, corrosion, and abrasion. However, titanium alloys are expensive, difficult to cut, and possess a large cutting load during the drilling process. In this study, the cutting force generated in the drilling process of Ti-6Al-4V alloy was verified via finite element analysis (FEM) and cutting force measurement experiments. A structural analysis was performed based on the cutting analysis data to verify the plastic deformation occurring during the drilling process of cylindrical Ti-6Al-4V alloy aircraft parts. Methods were proposed to predict the amount of deformation that occur during the manufacturing process of titanium-alloy aircraft parts and control the external environment, to minimize the amount of deformation.

In recent years, research to machine large-surface micro-features has become important because of the light guide panel of a large-scale liquid crystal display and the bipolar plate of a high-capacity proton exchange membrane fuel cell. In this study, in order to realize the systematic design technology and performance improvements of an ultra-precision machine for machining the large-surface micro-features, a structural characteristic analysis was performed using its virtual prototype. The prototype consisted of gantry-type frame, hydrostatic feed mechanisms, linear motors, brushless DC servo motor, counterbalance mechanism, and so on. The loop stiffness was estimated from the relative displacement between the tool post and C-axis table, which was caused by a cutting force. Especially, the causes of structural stiffness deterioration were identified through the structural deformation analysis of sub-models.

이 연구는 밀링가공시 체터진동을 억제하기 위하여 부등각 앤드밀(나선각이 서로 다른 앤드밀)을 사용하여 절삭가공을 수행 한 후, 그 가공특성을 고찰한 것으로 가공표면의 기하학적 오차를 일반적으로 사용하는 등각 엔드밀에 의한 값과 실험에 의해 비교 검토한 결과, 두 엔드밀 모두 가공표면의 기하학적 오차는 유사함 나타내고 있으나, 부등각 엔드밀의 절대오차는 등각 엔드밀 보다 더 적은 경향을 나타내고 있다. 이들의 오차는 상향절삭보다 하야절삭 가공했을 때가 더 큰 것으로 나타났다. 더구나, 등각 엔드밀과 부등각 엔드밀과의 절대오차가 다르게 나타난 것은 밀링가공시 사용한 절삭날 인선에 의하여 완전히 의존되어지며, 또한 다른 나선각에 의해 기인된 각각의 절삭날에 대한 절삭날당 이송비의 변화에 의한 원인이라는 것을 명백히 알 수 있었다.

Composite air spindles are appropriate for the high-speed and the high-precision machining as small hole drilling of printed circuit board (PCB) or wafer cutting for manufacturing semiconductors because of the low rotational inertia, the high damping ratio and the high fundamental natural frequency of composite shaft. The axial load and stiffness of composite air spindles fur drilling operation are determined by the thrust ben ring composed of the air supply part mounted on the housing and the rotating part mounted on the rotating shaft. At high-speed rotation, the rotating part of the thrust bearing should be designed considering the stresses induced by centrifugal force as well as the axial stiffness and the natural frequency of the rotating shaft to void the shaft from failure due to the centrifugal force and resonant vibration. In this work, the air supply part of the thrust bearing was designed considering the bending stiffness of the bearing and the applied load. The rotating part of the thrust bearing was designed through finite element analysis considering the cutting forces during manufacturing as well as the static and dynamic characteristics under both the axial and con trifugal forces during high-speed rotation.

In the study, a design process for ensuring optimal clearance in a fuel injection pump(FIP) is suggested. Structure analysis and hydrodynamic lubrication analysis are performed to determine the optimal clearance. The FIP is simulated using Hypermesh, Abaqus 6.12 to evaluate the reduction of clearance when the maximum supply pressure is applied. The reduction in clearance is caused by the difference in the deformations between the barrel and plunger. When the deformation of the plunger is larger than that of the barrel, a reduction in clearance at the head part occurs. On the other hand, the maximum clearance reduction equals the maximum deformation in the stem part, because the deformation of barrel does not occur in this region. The clearance of FIP should be designed to be larger than maximum reduction of clearance in order to avoid contact between the plunger and barrel. In addition, the two-dimensional Reynolds equation is used to evaluate lubrication characteristics with variations of viscosity, clearance and nozzle for a laminar, incompressible, unsteady state flow. The equation is discretized using the finite difference method. The lubrication characteristics of FIP are investigated by comparing film parameter, which is the ratio of the minimum film thickness and surface roughness. The optimal clearance of FIP is to be designed by considering the maximum reduction in clearance, lubrication characteristics, machining limits and tolerance of clearance.
