Finishing is the final process in molds manufacturing and consumes much process time. Also, it influences on surface quality of molds. But, there are few systematic methods to control the process. In this work, basic experiments were carried out to study the machining characteristics of the finishing tools. From the experiments, critical surface roughness and wear coefficient are suggested to reduce the number of finishing steps and to plan a systematic finishing procedure. Comparison experiments were carried out between the expert's method and the new method, which is based on the results of this research. From the experiments, it is verified that the systematic method takes less time and generates less form error in the machined surface than the worker's method.

The surface status of a workpiece determines its functionality, product quality, and manufacturing costs. Thus, several finishing technologies have been widely investigated and applied to improve surface characteristics. In this study, rotational electro-magnetic abrasive finishing (REMAF) was suggested as a non-contact finishing process to achieve high geometric precision. To verify the effects of the REMAF process on burr removal on the surface of Al6061, experiments were conducted using the Taguchi method. Based on the experimental results analyzed by the S/N ratio and ANOVA, the optimal conditions were defined as A₃B₂C₃D₃ that corresponded to 1,800 rpm of rotational speed, 1.5 kg of abrasive particle weight, 0.7 mm of abrasive diameter, and 15 min of working time. In addition, the particle weight was a key attribute for deburring, whereas the working time was less effective.

In this work, the surface integrity smoothened with a ball end mill was investigated. Because surface integrity mainly affects the manual finishing process, $RV_{AM}$(Remaining Volume After Machining) was introduced, and it gives the relation between machining process and finishing process. Runout and phase shift which adversely affect surface integrity were considered in the generation of surface topography. Cutting points in ball end milling were identified with positional vectors and a set of vectors which have the minimum height in unit area was selected for the generation of surface and $RV_{AM}$. $RV_{AM}$ variation according to runout and phase shift was calculated and experimentally verified in proposed HSM conditions for mold machining. From the simulations and the experiments, a desirable High Speed Machining condition was suggested.

Results ar presented of a new process for internal precision finishing of slender fine ceramic pipes using a magnetic field generated by a permanent magnets. For finishing the interior surface of a long pipe, a new type of finishing equipment was developed which can be very easily used in an industrial surrounding. In general, the pipe is so slender that a conventional finishing tool is hardly inserted into the pipe deeply, being impossible to finish. Therefore, a new technology has been considered to finish inside of a slender ceramic pipe by a simple technique. In this experimental, Magnetic Abrasive Machining is applied for the inner surface of silicon nitride fine ceramic pipe using ferromagnetic particles mixed with chromium-oxide powder. It is shown the initial roughness of 2.6㎛ Ry(0.42㎛ Ra) in the inside surface can be precisely finished to the roughness of 0.1㎛ Ry(0.01㎛ Ra). This paper discusses the outline of the processing by the application of magnetic abrasive machining and a few finishing characteristics.

Mold-manufacturing process consists of machining and finishing process that are strongly related in each other. But there are few studies about mold-manufacturing process to control those two processes simultaneously. Especially, runout distorts the machined surface from expected so it changes the finishing process and mold-manufacturing time. In this work, basic analyses and experiments were carried out to study RVAS variation according to runout in HSM. To perform those analyses, firstly surface generation analysis was done including runout in ball end milling and then the RVAS that could relate machining and finishing process was proposed. And the optimal finishing process in HSM according to RVAS was also proposed. Through experiment runout occurrence and above analyses were verified.

This paper describes the statistical analysis techniques for the surface roughness assessment of polished surfaces. In experiments, the polishing process of the sample surfaces which are manufactured by ball end mill is consist of two steps; the cusp removal process and the surface finishing process. For the cusp removal process, the criterion of cusp removal was established from the power spectrum analysis to assess the change of the cusp removal rate. For the finishing process, the surface was polished by the rotational CBN tool and vibration wood tool. And the surface quality of polished surface was assessed using the functional parameters based on the statistical values of surface profiles. Consequently, the surface finish performance of the polished surface using the vibration wood tool was improved.

An internal finishing process by the application of magnetic abrasive machining has been developed as a new technology to obtain a fine inner surface of pipe. In this paper, the finishing process of a non-ferromagnetic pipe by a static magnetic field method is introduced and its finishing characteristics is discussed with effective factors by various experiments. From these experimental results, it is found that the proper suppling quantity of magnetic abrasives per diameter of pipe is important, and the inner surface roughness of pipe is not changed much after certain critical finishing time. As a result of this investigation the 3.2$\mu$m Rmax in inner surface roughness of stainless steel pipe is improved to 0.7$\mu$m Rmax after 6 minutes finishing.

The finishing process for die is an important process because it has influence on final quality of products. Recently s study on development of 5-axis die automated finishing machine has been progressed. But die must be moved from the cutting machine to the die automated finishing machine. So manufacturing cost and time increase and machining error occurs by transfer. So, in this study, a 3-axis machining center was applied to die finishing. Because cutting tool can be changed to finishing tool by ATC, both of cutting and finishing process are possible on the machine. However, this application results in the decrease of finishing for the improvement of form accuracy. So this study focused on the generation of finishing tool path suitable to 3-axis die finishing for the improvement of form accuracy. The form accuracy evaluation is performed by the measurement of removal depth using a stylus profilometer. From the result, it is confirmed that form accuracy was improved less than 2$\mu$m of removal depth error.

In order to establish the standard manufacturing condition of PET flame retardant sheets, physicochetnical properties of the samples made by the conventional flame-retardant finishing were systematically investigated, including compatibility among flame retardant agent and finishing auxiliaries, surface property, and wicking property. From this results, the addition of washing and renapping process after the shearing process was required for the more effective in producing PET flame-retardant sheet by the standard finishing. The effect of the modification of the regular flame retardant finishing process was studied by FTIR, TGA, and flame retardancy test.
