In mold machining, there are many concave machining regions where chatter and tool deflection occur since MRR (material removal rate) increases as curvature increases even though cutting speed and depth of cut are constant. Boolean operation between stock and tool model is widely used to compute MRR in NC milling simulation. In finish cutting, the side step is reduced to about 0.3mm and tool path length is sometimes over 300m. so Boolean operation takes long computation time and includes much error if the resolution of stock and tool model is larger than the side step. In this paper, curvature of CL(cutter location) surface and side step of tool path is used to compute the feedrate for constant MRR machining. The data structure of CL surface is Z-map generated from NC tool path. The algorithm to get local curvature from discrete data was developed and applied to compute local curvature of CL surface. The side step of tool path was computed by point density map which includes cutter location point density at each grid element. The feedrate computed from curvature and side step is inserted to new tool path to regulate MRR. The resultants wire applied to feedrate optimization system which generates new tool path with feedrate from NC codes for finish cutting. The system was applied to speaker mold machining. The finishing time was reduced to 12.6%. tool wear was reduced from 2mm to 1.1mm and chatter marks and over cut on corner were removed.

Recycling processes of spent copper wires cosisnt of several steps of cutting and chopping processes for peeling covering materials followed by gravity separation processes, where copper is recovered. Because copper thin wires could be lost during further recycling processes, the wire may need to be further treated. In the present study, the copper thin wire was treated with ball milling to prevent the loss. Since the aggregation of the copper wire could be formed by bending and entangling the copper wire each other, the degree of flexion of the copper wire was measured after ball milling. When the 0.5 cm and 3 cm copper wires were used, the 0.5 cm copper wire was not bent and the 3 cm copper wires were aggregated regardless of the ball addition. When the 1 cm and 2 cm copper wires were used, the degree of flexion was remarkable when the balls were added. In the tests using 2 cm copper wires, the aggregation ratio of the copper wire gradually increased with the amount of the 20 mm alumina ball, and when 200 ml of 30 mm alumina ball was used, the aggregation ratio increased to 89.29 %, but after increasing the ball amount further, the aggregation ratio decreased. Thus, it is expected that the loss of the copper wire could be reducedif when the copper thin wire is treated with ball milling by the aggregation of copper thin wires.

Electrical discharge machining is the method of using thermal energy by electrical discharge. Generally, if the material of workpiece has conductivity even though it is very hard material and complicated shape which are difficult to cut such as quenching steel, cemented carbide, diamond and conductive ceramics, the EDM is favorable one of possible machining processes. But, the process is necessarily required of finish cut and heat treatment because of slow cutting speed, no mirror surface, brittleness and crack due to the residual stress for manufactured goods.

Titanium alloys have the characteristics of lightness, high strength and good corrosion resistant and are broadly used in manufacturing parts for military and aerospace industries. These alloys are also recognized for organism materials comparatively and used as fixing ones in human body. Nevertheless titanium alloys have excellent properties, it is difficult to machine by traditional methods because of high hardness and chemically activated property. So higher tool wear is expected when cutting by conventional tools, so it is required nontraditional machining process. Finally, the mechanical characteristics such as surface roughness, shape and hardness on studied for wire electrical discharge machined and pound surfaces of titanium alloys for different heat-tested conditions.

Recently as ultrasonic medical devices are gradually developed, many of those require smaller and more precision coaxial cables in the probe. So, the use of micro coaxial cable becomes an efficient solution for ultrasonic machine. However, there are many difficulties in stripping micro coaxial cable by traditional mechanical process. In this paper we use the Nd:YAG laser for the efficient striping of conduct wire of cable. Through some experiments, we found that there is a new possibility in the proposed method. Also, we propose a pre-process of the cable before stripping in order to enhance the performance.

In this paper, we developed the multi-tool carving machine which integrates the existing hot-wire carving machine, hot-wire cutting machine and spindle so that the shape of complex structure can be produced easily and quickly. We have also developed software that solves the problem that G-Code applies only to a single tool, and controls the details of the machine's operations that can not be managed with existing 3D modeling tools.

Ni wires with a diameter and length of 0.4 and 100 mm, respectively, and a purity of 99.9% are electrically exploded at 25 cycles per minute. The Ni nanopowders are successfully synthesized by a pulsed wire evaporation (PWE) method, in which Ar gas is used as the ambient gas. The characterization of the nanopowders is carried out using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and a high-resolution transmission electronmicroscope (HRTEM). The Ni nanopowders are classified for a multilayer ceramic condenser (MLCC) application using a type two Air-Centrifugal classifier (model: CNI, MP-250). The characterization of the classified Ni nanopowders are carried out using a scanning electron microscope (SEM) and particle size analysis (PSA) to observe the distribution and minimum classification point (minimum cutting point) of the nanopowders.

The Purpose of this study is to know temperature and thermal stress distribution in specimens during processing of WEDM. If it is constant to the cutting speed and the thickness of material, it is very important to the effect of temperature and the thermal stress distribution after cutting processing. This paper show the analysis result of the distribution of temperature and the residual stress along the direction of thickness before processing of WEDM and after when the cooling temperature is$20^{\circ}C$. The maximum temperature of edge of specimens is $1600^{\circ}C$. It has little temperature gradient in the depth which is 5mm away from edge of specimens. Equivalent residual stress is result in 180.7 MPa at maximum temperature.

Evaluation of fracture toughness of welded structures has a significant influence on the structural design. However the residual stresses is redistributed while the welded structures is cut for preparing specimens. This study investigated an effect of the welding residual stress redistribution on the impact absorption energy of Charpy specimen. SA516Gr70 steel plate by at the flux cored arc welding (FCAW) and gas tungsten arc welding(GTAW) was cutting. Specimens for Charpy impact testing were taken from the welded plate. Two material removal mechanisms (wire cutting and water jet) were used to make the specimens. Welding residual stress and redistribution residual stress were measured using the XRD (X-Ray Diffraction) method. The amount of redistribution of residual stress depends on the different material removal mechanism. Redistribution of residual stress of reduced the impact absorption energy by 15%.
