In the gas cutting of plate steel, the quality of the cut surfaces and sections is strongly dependent on the cutting conditions such as cutting speed, kerf width, plate thickness, material, distance between tip and specimen, and cutting oxygen pressure etc. The cutting tests of plate steel were carried out using CNC gas cutting machine. This paper deals with cut surface and section characteristics of plate steel in CNC gas cutting. Both top and bottom widths of kerf, the surface roughness(Ra, Rmax) of cutting surfaces are measured under various cutting conditions such as cutting speed, material, distance between tip and specimen, and cutting thickness. The photographs of cut surface and cut section are also analyzed under various cutting conditions.

In this paper, polishing method using bonded magnetic abrasive particle has been applied to the micro mold polishing. Through process control using the Run-to-Run control, it tried to form the surface roughness In order to grasp the influence of the surface roughness which is reached by selection of control factor and the factor, a design of experiment was been processed. The study is processed with a purpose of to embody and to maintain the surface roughness of nano scale by the basis of an influence between a control factor and the factors which has been selected in this way. As a result, the result of the process control converged at a target value of surface roughness Ra 10nm and Rmax 50nm

The cutting tests of high tensile steel plate(AH36) were carried out using CNC plasma arc cutting machine. Both top and bottom width of kerf and the surface roughness(Ra, Rmax) of cut surface are measured under various cutting conditions such as cutting speed, steel plate thickness, etc. In the CNC plasma arc cutting, the surface roughness decreases as cutting speed increases. The hardness is high up to 4mm depth from the cutting surface. In the cutting speed 1300~2100mm/min, the ratio of proper kerf width(Wt/Wb) is around 2.6. Through the series the series of experiments, the satisfactory cutting conditions of high tensile steel plate were found.

Measurement of surface roughness has been done by two dimensional method until now. In recent, three dimensuional method is introduced for the precise measurement of surface roughness. But the study about stylus type three dimensional measurement method is a little. Therefore, in this study, arbitrary machined surface is selected and same part is measured by two dimensional and three dimensional method. The result is that the ratio of tow dimensional to three dimensional value is 0.9-1.1 in Ra. But two dimensional measurement method is underestimated because the ratio is 0.5-0.9 in Rz, Rmax. And it is suitable that the number of measuring line is 100 and y pitch is 5 um by three dimensional surface roughness measuring method.

This paper is concerned with the surface roughness and the bending strength of ground workpiece in ZrO2 ceramic grinding. Surface roughness was measured with surface tracer and bending strength value was obtained by three-point bending test on machining center using tool dynamometer. Grinding experiments were carried out to examine the effects of grinding conditions including diamond mesh size, table speed, and depth of cut on ground surface roughness. The correlation between surface roughness and bending strength was also inspected. The experimental results indicate that the rougher surface is produced as the mesh size of diamond wheel is reduced and table speed is increased, but surface roughness is not affected by depth of cut. The values of bending strength decrease as the values of Ra, Rmax and Ku increase.

Silicon wafers are required to be finished under the roughness of nanometer order for the subsequent chip fabrication processes. Recently, the finish grinding techniques have been researched for the improvement of accuracy and surface roughness simultaneously. Among them, the grinding technique using fine abrasive has been known as an easily accessible method. However, the manufacture of the fine grit grinding wheel has been very difficult because of the coherence of the grits. In this paper, the development of the ultrafine grit silica($SiO_2$) grinding wheel by the combination of the binder coating and the vacuum forming techniques is reported. And, the mechanochemical removal effects of the grinding conditions are discussed. Finally, a successful result of Ra O.4nm. Rmax 4nm in the ground surface roughness of a 6 inch silicon wafer was achieved.

In this study, using in-process tool failure detecting system by AE method in turning machining, we measured AE signal from the tool, and the surface roughness of workpiece and then compared it with tool wear. As a result, we found that tool failure can be predicted by means of surface roughness of the workpiece and it can be predicted more precisely by the arithmetical average roughness (Ra) than by the maximum height of irregularities (Rmax) of the workpiece. Also, we found that we could judge whether it was sudden failure or the wear by means of the shape of AE signal and the range distri- bution of power spectrum frequency when tool danage was happened.

One of the most important things in shipbuilding is to select light and high tensile strength materials. Therefore, the use of Al alloy in shipbuilding become an increase. In cutting the aluminum plate, the quality of the cut surface is strongly influenced by the cutting conditions such as cutting speed, kerf width, plate thickness, cutting materials, and applied gas pressure. The cutting experiment of Al alloy plate(5083) were carried out using LASER cutting machine. The upper and lower of kerf width, the surface roughness(Ra, Rmax) of cut surface were measured under various cutting conditions. The morphologies of cutting surface were also monitored at various cutting conditions. The optimum cutting conditions of Al alloy among tested were indicated.

In order to optimize the polishing process, Run to Run control scheme has been applied to the micro mold polishing in this study. Also, to fully understand the effect of parameters on the surface roughness a design of experiment is performed. By linear approximation of main factors such as gap and rotational speed of micro quill, EWMA (Exponential Weighted Moving Average) gradual mode controller is adopted as a optimizing tool. Consequently, the process converged quickly at a target value of surface roughness Ra 10nm and Rmax 50nm, and was hardly affected by unwanted process noises like initial surface quality and wear of magnetic abrasives.
