Ball-end milling process is widely used in the die and mold manufacturing because of suitable for the machining of free-form surface. Pencil cutting can eliminate overload in uncut area caused by large diameter of ball-end mill before finish cutting. As the ball-end mill for pencil cutting is long and thin, it is easily deflected by cutting force. The tool deflection when pencil cutting is one of the main reason of the machining errors on a free-from surface. The purpose of the research is to find out the characteristics of deflected cutter trajectory by eddy-current sensor.

Ball-end milling process is widely used in the die and mold manufacturing because of suitable one for the machining of free-form surface. During the process, the pencil cutting operation can be adopted before finish cut to eliminate overload in uncut area caused by large diameter of ball-end mill. The ball-end mill cutter for the pencil cutting is easily deflected by cutting force due to the long and thin shape, and the tool deflection in pencil cutting is one of the main reason of the machining errors in a free-form surface. The purpose of this study is to find the characteristics of deflected cutter trajectory by constructing measurement system with eddy-current sensor. It was found that the severe reduction of corner radius produced the overcut during the plane cutting. Up cutting method induced the overcut both plane and slope cutting, but down cutting one induced the undercut. From the experiments, down cutting with upward cutting path can generate the small undercut surface.

This paper proposes methods for pencil machining and uncut area machining. Based on Z-map represented by triangular facets, self-intersection-free offset surface is generated with K-offset method in case of ball mill and flat mill Pencil machining can elliminate overload area before main machining rough, semi-finish and finish cutting,preventing fluctuations of cutting forces in concave regions form causing bad machining condition. Low productivity is caused by uncut area which has excessive or irreguar finishing allowance. Uncut area machining has the finishing allowance keep uniformly on part surface. This paper deals with two types of uncaut area, machining detection of excessive area and user-defined area.

This paper presents schematic process of identifying the principal cause to make the vibration problem of rotating circular saws. In the tandem pencil slat saw lines, feeding of cedar blocks is often stopped because excessive motro current is required in a saw motor. These events are called "kick-offs" in technical reports. Research on saw behavior at kick-offs is required to understand are reduce the frequency and severity of kick-offs events. This research aims at finding out the principal cause of kick-offs, and evloving design improvements for high cutting performance with fewer and less severe kick-offs. Measurements of critical speed, cutting force, cutting temeprature and dynamic displacements are carried out to observe the instability mechanism and also to obtain saw design parameters for the numerical analyses. And the numerical analyses involving FEM and multiple scale method are utilized to show the possibility of the principal cause.pal cause.

This paper discusses a method to generate the tool path for NC machining of automobile panel dies. The source data representing a panel die may be generated from digitizing machines, other CAD/CAM systems via IGES files, of compound surface models. From the source data, three types of interferencefree tool paths are generated automatically ; a parallel (Cartesian), an isometric, and a pencil cutting tool path. For the interference-free tool path, a polyhedral model composed of several triangles, and an 'offset triangle' approach are exploited. Finally, some practical examples are illustrated.

In this study, 2,5-dichlorobenzophenone was synthesized as a monomer using 1,4-dichlorbenzene, and subsequently, copolymers of benzoyl-p-phenylene and p-phenylene were prepared. The average molecular weight was improved using the low-molecular-weight polymer cutting method. The average molecular weight and glass transition temperature of the synthesized polymers were estimated. The as-prepared polymer was used as a hard coating material, and the coating was conducted on a poly(methyl methacrylate) plate. Furthermore, physical properties of the coatings, such as pencil hardness, adhesive strength, and abrasion resistance, were estimated. As the amount of p-phenylene in the copolymer increased, pencil hardness and abrasion resistance improved. The amount of p-phenylene in the copolymer can be increased to 30 mol% in order to increase the hardness of the coating, and the adhesive strength was insufficient for the copolymers with p-phenylene ratio greater than 35 mol%.

In the tandom pencil slat saw lines, feeding of cedar blocks is often stopped because excessive motor current is required in a saw machine. These events are called "kickoffs' in factory lines. Kickoffs decrease productivity due to machine down-time and damage to saw blades often accompanies them. Researches on saw behavior at kickoff are required to understand and reduce the frequency and severity of kickoff events. This research aims at understanding the fundamental mechanisms of kickoffs during cutting, predicting the impending kickoff and evolving design improvements for high cutting performance with fewer and less severe kickoffs.offs.

With hope and concern, the first Korean proton therapy facility was introduced to the National Cancer Center (NCC) in 2007. It added a new chapter to the history of Korean radiation therapy. There have been challenging clinical trials using proton beam therapy, which has seen many impressive results in cancer treatment. Compared to the rapidly increasing number of proton therapy facilities in the world, only one more proton therapy center has been added since 2007 in Korea. The Samsung Medical Center installed a proton therapy facility in 2015. Most radiation oncology practitioners would agree that the physical properties of the proton beam provide a clear advantage in radiation treatment. But the expensive cost of proton therapy facilities is still one of the main reasons that hospitals are reluctant to introduce them in Korea. I herein introduce the history of proton therapy and the cutting edge technology used in proton therapy. In addition, I will cover the role of a medical physicist in proton therapy and the future prospects of proton therapy, based on personal experience in participating in proton therapy programs from the beginning at the NCC.
