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 non-ferromagnetic pipe. In this paper, an abrasive slurry circulation system was designed and manufactured. As a result, it was found that a fine inner surface of pipe was available by the use of these machining methods. The basic machining characteristics of pin-type magnetic tools were analyzed experimentally. In addition, the experimental results show that pin-type magnetic tools have more machining efficiency than Iron particles as magnetic tools.

As mechanical components require size minimization and high precision, micro die machining technology has been developed in many fields. to machine a micro die by EDM, sometimes, a polygonal electrode is use. Machining corners by MEDM shows special characteristics. Physically, electrons are concentrated in sharp region and a high potential level is established in this region. Also, the electrode can't be rotated when machining a polygonal cavity, and machined debris can not drawn off easily. Discharge concentration in corners and 2nd discharge by machined debris result in distortion of corner shape. This phenomena can be improved by shaking the electrode. This method is also shown to be effective in improving surface roughness by circulation of machining fluid resulting from movement of the electrode.

Utomatic finishing process requires the development of high efficient and precision abrasive machining method for die and molds. This study describes the evaluation of the finishing characteristics, such as sufrace roughness, topography and material removal depth, of the electrolytic chemical mixed abrasive machining method. Experimental setup is composed of 3 axis machining center, a newly developed finishing attachment with constant pressure, electrode and electrolytic bath. Finally, we achieved a successful result that surface roughness is 0.01 .mu. m Ra and material removal depth is 145 .mu. m after 100 times repeat-finishing using electrolytic (0.8A,30V) mixed abrasive (#400 CBN, #320 Sic) machining method.

Extensive researches have been carried out on machine tool chatter to obtain assessment procedure and improvement measures. In this study, chatter limit is predicted on a newly fabricated universal machining center by the combination of structural dynamic characteristics and cutting mechanics. We showed the unstable cutting conditions, and from them we could plot the unstable borderlines. From the chatter simulations we could say that the newly built universal machining center can be well used in the finishing machining of steel as other common machine tools.

Recently, the miniature of electric products such as notebook, cellular-phone etc. is apparently appeared, due to the smaller size of the semiconductor chips. As the size of chip gets smaller, the circuit could be easily damaged by the slightest influence, therefore it is important to investigate the machining quality of $\mu$ BGA. This paper deals with machining characteristics of the $\mu$ BGA singulation. The relationships between the singulation face and machining quality of the $\mu$ BGA singulation are investigated. It is confirmed that machining quality improves as the singulation force decreases.

The machining parts must be produced within the specification of drawing and those will be able to meet function and efficiency. At that time, it is very important not only precision machine and machining technique but also the measurement technique. So, the improvement of measurement technique is to be joined together at once with improvement of machining technique. Finally, the quality and value of the parts are decided by precision measurement. This paper aims to study on the machined surfaces characteristics of aluminum alloy by AFM(Atomic force microscope) measurement. The objective is contribution to ultra-precision machining by exhibit foundation data of surface roughness and tool wear when parts are cutting with diamond tool at the factory.

In this paper, investigated are the machining characteristics such as material removal rate and machining time with respect to discharge area and capacitance in micro electrical discharge machining (MEDM). As discharge area determined by the electrode size and capacitance change, the optimal feedrate to allow the minimum machining time changes. The smaller discharge area is, the lower MRR becomes because of the area effect. As the capacitance increases, MRR also increases. However there is the limit capacitance beyond which the MRR does not increase anymore. As the discharge area increases, the limit capacitance also increases.

A successful on-line monitoring system for conventional machining operations has the potential to reduce cost, guarantee consistency of product quality, improve productivity and provide a safer environment for the operator. In fee-shape machining, typical signs of tool problems such as vibration, noise, chip flow characteristics and visual signs are almost unnoticeable without the use of special equipment. These characteristics increase the importance of automatic monitoring in fine-shape machining; however, sensing and interpretation of signals are more complex. In addition, the shafts of the micro-tools break before the typical extensive cutting edge of the tool gets damaged. In this study, the existence of a relationship between the characteristics of the cutting force and tool usage was investigated, and tool breakage detection algorithm was developed and the fellowing results are obtained. In data analysis, didn't use a relative error compare which mainly used in established experiment and investigated tool breakage detection algorithm in time domain which can detect AE and cutting force signals more effective and accurate.

This study aims to obtain machining characteristics during AFM (Atomic force Microscope) machining of silicon wafers and to monitor the machining states using acoustic emission. As in micro scale machining, two distinct regimes of deformation, i. e. ploughing regime and cutting regime were observed. First, the transition between the two regimes are investigated by analyzing the "pile-up" during machining. As far as in process monitoring is concerned, in the ploughing repime, no chips have been formed and related AE RMS values are relatively low, In the mean time, in the cutting regime, the RMS values are significantly higher than the ploughing regime, with apparent chip formation. From the results, we found out that the proposed scheme can be used for the monitoring of nanomachining, especially for the characterization of nanocutting mode transition.

KS and ISO have proposed several evaluation methods of conventional machine tools. Even though the accuracy of the tools can be evaluated with these methods, there are still no proper evaluation methods of high speed machining. Because it is hard to evaluate characteristics of high speed machining such as decrease of cutting temperature, cutting force, and reduced machining time. Therefore, new evaluation method for high speed machine should be developed. In this paper, several shapes of model have been proposed to evaluate cutting accuracy of high speed machine.
