Diamond-like carbon (DLC) films have been widely used in many industrial applications because of their outstanding mechanical and chemical properties like hardness, wear resistance, lubricous property, chemical stability, and uniformity of deposition. Also, DLC films coated on paper, polymer, and metal substrates have been extensively used. In this work, in order to improve the printing quality and plate wear of polymer printing plates, different deposition conditions were used for depositing DLC on the polymer printing plates using the Pulsed DC PECVD method. The deposition temperature of the DLC films was under $100^{\circ}C$, in order to prevent the deformation of the polymer plates. The properties of each DLC coating on the polymer concave printing plate were analyzed by measuring properties such as the roughness, surface morphology, chemical bonding, hardness, plate wear resistance, contact angle, and printing quality of DLC films. From the results of the analysis of the properties of each of the different DLC deposition conditions, the deposition conditions of DLC + F and DLC + Si + F were found to have been successful at improving the printing quality and plate wear of polymer printing plates because the properties were improved compared to those of polymer concave printing plates.

After the Koryo government moved to Kanghwado Island to escape the invading Mongols, Ch'oe I who was the government irstman ordered in 1239 the recarving of Nanmingchuan Huoshangsung Chengtao-ko (남명천화상송증도가) widely used by an adherent of Son Buddhism to gain a greater understanding of Son principles. Ch'oe I's postscript indicate that the original edition printed with metal type was no longer available and woodblocks were carved to produce facsimiles of that edition. It is assumed that the copies of the original edition were limited in number due to the primitiveness of printing skills and had either not been taken to Kanghwado Island in the flurry of evacuation or were almost all used up. Demand for the book seemed to have surged sharply due to need for spiritual solace during the period of invasion. It is believed that the original edition of Chengtao-ko was published with metal type in Kaegyong(개경), the capitial, before the government took refuge on Kanghwado Island. Two copies of the recarved woodblocks were recently found in the collectiion of Kim Chong-gyu(김종규). and Park Tong-sop (박동섭). It is presumed that one of the copies was recarved again the other one some time, But the carving of the woodblocks were very sophisticated and faithfully reproduced the characteristics of the original metal type edition; first, there were many slanted characters; second, the lines of the main text were not straight but wavy; third, no bottom stroke of any character overlaps the upper stroke of the following character; and fourth, the characters are relatively uniform in size and shape. The printing techniques reflected in the woodblock reproduction were much better than that at the end of the Koryo dynasty and the beginning of the Yi dynasty. It can be assumed that printing with official type had reached a high level of skill before the transfer to Kanghwado Island.

Nowadays, 3 dimentional (3D) printing, especially Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS) system is used in dentistry. DMLS system has recently been introduced for fabrication metal framework for metal ceramic crowns to overcome the disadvantages of the casting method and computer aided design/computer aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) milling system. DMLS system uses a high-temperature laser beam to selectively heat a substructure metal powder based on the CAD data with the framework design. A thin layer of the beamed area becomes fused, and the metal framework is completed by laminating these thin layers. Utilizing DMLS system to fabricate fixed prostheses is expected to achieve free-from shaping without mold and limitations from cutting tools, fabricate prostheses with complex geometry, prevent distortion and fabrication defects that inherent to conventional fabrication methods. The purpose of this case report is to demonstrate various fixed prostheses such as long span fixed prostheses, post to achieve satisfactory results in functional and esthetic aspects.

Metal 3D printing is very useful for making the injection molds containing complex conformal cooling channels. The most important issue of the 3D printed molds is cost and life cycle. However, powder bed fusion (PBF) methods are vulnerable to fatigue loading because of the presence of pores and rough surfaces. In the present study, the fatigue test was performed to obtain fatigue analysis input data for predicting the durability of a 3D printed injection mold core. The metal 3D printer used to manufacture the specimen was OPM250L from Sodick, and the metal powder material was maraging steel. The ultrasonic fatigue testing method was adopted for the fatigue test. A key advantage of the ultrasonic fatigue method is that $10^8{\sim}10^9$ long cycle test data or more could be obtained within a relatively short period. Based on the results of the experiment, the effect of heat treatment was negligible. However, there was an apparent difference in durability depending on the presence or absence of the surface treatment.

3D printing of NiTi alloys has been successfully achieved. A novel printing process has been developed and used, which consists in selective deposition of a solvent on a granule bed. The granules are composed of metal powders and thermoplastic binder, which are mixed and sieved by conventional methods. A sound green strength is obtained after solvent evaporation. Sintered parts exhibit good density, proper phase composition and shape memory behaviour.

일반적으로 screen printing 전극은 양산용 태양전지에 많이 응용되고 있다. 이것은 공정이 진공상태 내에서 이루어지지 않으므로 비교적 간단하게 증착 가능하고, co-firing으로 인한 공정단계의 함축과, 기판의 화학적인 오염이 적으며, 시료를 용도에 따라 다양하게 선택적으로 사용할 수 있고, 많은 수량의 태양전지에 전극을 저비용으로 빠르게 형성할 수 있기에 throughput 이 높은 장점이 있다. 하지만 lithography에 의한 전극보다 저항이 높고, uniformity가 낮은 단점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 Ag 전면전극과 Al 후면전극을 형성하고 conventional furnace에서 co-firing하여 열처리조건에 따라서 전극이 최적화된 가장 낮은 저항을 갖도록 하여 단점을 개선하여 보았다.

3D printing is a technology that has significantly grown in recent years, particularly in the aerospace, defense, and medical sectors where it offers significant potential cost savings and reduction of the supply chain by allowing parts to be manufactured on-site rather than at a distance supplier. In nuclear industry, 3D printing technology should be applied according to the manufacturing trend change. For the application of 3D printing technology to the nuclear power plant, several problems, including the absence of code & standards of materials, processes and testing & inspection methods etc, should be solved. Preemptively, the improvement of reliability of 3D printing technology, including mechanical properties, structural performance, service performance and aging degradation of 3D printed parts should be supported. These results can be achieved by collaboration of many organizations such as institute, 3D printer manufacturer, metal powder supplier, nuclear part manufacturer, standard developing organization, and nuclear utility.

In this study, the optimal process condition was induced about the pillar arrangement process of applying the screen printing method in the manufacture process of vacuum glazing panel. The high precision screen printing is technology which pushes out the paste and spreads it by using the squeegee on the stainless steel plate in which the pattern is formed. The screen printing method is much used in the flat panel display field including the LCD, PDP, FED, organic EL, and etc for forming the high precision micro-pattern. Also a number of studies of screen printing method have been conducted as the method for the cost down through the improvement of productivity. The screen printing method has many parameters. So we used Taguchi method in order to decrease test frequencies and optimize this parameters efficiently. In this study, experiments of pillar arrangement were performed by using Taguchi experimental design. We analyzed experimental results and obtained optimal conditions which are 4 m/s of squeegee speed, $40^{\circ}$ of squeegee angle and distance between metal mask and glass.

Several universities in Korea are beginning studies related to soft stamping processes but since the studies are done with manual works thus systematic tests can't be performed due to difficulties in producing reproducible and repeatable fine patterns. Therefore, the phenomenon of destruction of the pattern forms of elastic polymers occurred during working because of inconsistent printing pressures and pinting time and there have been difficulties in maintaining flatness or producing uniform and fault-free fine structures in pinting large areas and also, there have been difficulties in multi-layered processes as patterns were changed by contacts in registering and errors in alignments. The purpose of development of this technology is to improve the process of soft lithography so that contacts between PDMS stamps and metal coated substrates in order to develop a stamp printing device that can not only shorten but also optimize processes, secure reproducibility and repeatability and is advantageous in printing large areas. Also, using this technology, this author is to develop equipment technologies and applied technologies for nano grade pattern printing processes with new concepts based on fine contact printing processes in order to apply them to diverse nano pattering processes.
