The metal ceramic crown is currently the most popular complete veneer restoration in dentistry, but in many cases, the metal cervical collar at the facial margin is unesthetic and unacceptable. Facial porcelain margin has been used in place of it. But this dose not solve the problems, such as dark gingival discoloration and cervical opaque reflection of porcelain veneer. Recently, metal copings which were designed to terminate its labio-cervical end on the axial walls coronal to the shoulder have been clinically used to solve the esthetic problem of metal ceramic crown. But in this design, porcelain veneer of labio-cervical area which is not supported by metal may not be able to resist the stress during cementation and mastication. The purpose of this study was to evaluate fracture strength and fractured appearance of crowns according to different coping designs. A resin maxillary left central incisor analogue was prepared for a metal ceramic crown, and metal dies were made with duplication mold. Metal copings were made and assigned to one of four groups based on facial framework designs: group 1, coping with 0.5mm metal collar; group 2, metal extended to the shoulder; group 3, metal extended to 1mm coronal tn the shoulder: group 4, metal extended to 2mm coronal to the shoulder. Copings and crowns were adjusted to be same size and thickness, and cemented to metal dies with zinc phosphate cement by finger pressure. Fracture strength was measured with Instron Universal Testing Machine. Metal dies were anchored in Three-way-vice at 3mm below finish line and at $130^{\circ}$ inclined to the long axis of the crown. Load was directed lingually at 2mm below midincisal edge. Load value at initial crack and at catastrophic fracture was recorded. The results obtained were as follows : 1. Fracture strength values at initial crack were higher in groups 1, 2 than in groups 3, 4 but this difference was not statistically significant(P<0.05). 2. Conventional metal collared crown had greater catastrophic fracture strength than any other collarless crowns. 3. The greater the labial metal coping reduction, the lower the catastrophic fracture strength of crowns but when more than 1mm of labial metal reduction was done, the difference in strengths was not statistically significant(p<0.05). 4. The strongest collarless coping design was group 2.

The role of thermal contact resistance between a casting and a metal mold as well as natural convection in the melt during solidification of a pure metal is numerically studied. Numerical simulation is performed for a rectangular cavity using the coordinate transformation by boundary-fitted coordinate and pure aluminum is used as the phase- change material. The influences of thermal contact resistance on the interface shape and position, solidified volume fraction, temperature field and local heat transfer are investigated.

This paper describes the manufacture of spherical and aspherical surface on glass, superalloy and ceramic components. The rotationally symmetricallenses, and the ceramic or superalloy molds with spherical shapes are mainly generated by cutting processes on CNC lathe machine or 4,5 axis CNC machining centers. Recently, spherical shape parts require more precise and efficent machining technologies for wide material range such as optical lens of the lithography device in semiconductor manufacturing processes or the high precision mold machining of anti-chemical, anti-wear materials. In this paper, we introduce a newly developed infeed grinding machine with metal with metal bonded cup type wheel and its effects on spherical surface grinding.

In this study, the wind-mill type ultrasonic motor was fabricated, and then resonant frequency and vibration velocity characteristics of the stator were measured. Brass metal was pressed with umbrella-type using metal mold, then slot of 4 kind was processed in each of thickness. Among sixteen's stators, resonant frequency on vibration velocity was decreased remarkably in stator of higher resonant point, but resonant frequency on vibration velocity wasn't almost changed at lower resonant point of stator. The thickener thickness of elastic body, vibration velocity was decreased. The more slot of elastic body, vibration velocity was increased Applied voltage was changed from 10$V_{max}$ to 100$V_{max}$. Maximum vibration velocity value was 2.0[m/s].

In this study, the wind-mill type ultrasonic motor was fabricated, and then revolution and temperature characteristics of the ultrasonic motor were measured. Brass metal was pressed with umbrella-type using metal mold, then slot of 4 kind was processed in each of thickness. Among sixteen's ultrasonic motors, heat loss on applied voltage was much at stator of the highest resonant point, but heat loss on applied voltage was almost neglected at the lowest resonant point of stator. The thickener thickness of elastic body, revolution speed was decreased. The more slot of elastic body, revolution speed was increased. Applied voltage was changed from $10V_{max}$ to $100V_{max}$. When applied voltage was under $20V_{max}$, ultrasonic motor was not rotated. When applied voltage was over $90V_{max}$, revolution of ultrasonic motor was saturated. Maximum revolution speed was 510[rpm].

This paper presents metal structure that is fabricated using UV-LIGA process with PMER N-CA3000. In order to fabricate metal structure with high aspect ratio, the systematic optimization method was adopted and then the structure of $36{\mu}m$ thick mold with aspect ratio 7:1 (trench) and $32{\mu}m$ thick nickel structure was obtained. This structure is applied to the fabrication of optical switch.

In the metal cutting, machining accuracies had affected by tool deflection that had been generated by acting cutting force on the cutting edges. Generally, the CAD/CAM and a solid modeler had used for the simulation of cutting process only. Some NC codes for metal cutting have been generated by these simulation results. But, machining errors that had generated by the tool deflection has not solved using these system. In this study, determination algorithm for integration zone has been studied using the commercial solid modeler. The tool deflection error has calculated by the integration zone between the small chip and the cutting edges.

In the sand casting process, the flow of liquid metal affects the quality of casting products and their die life. To determine the optimal bush part design process, this study performed various analyses using commercial finite element analysis S/W. The simulation focused on the molten metal behaviors during the mold filling and solidification stages of sand casting. This study aims to develop methods to reduce the cost and increase the tool life of the continuous hot zinc plating roll.

For the mold die sticking mechanism, the major explanation is that EMC filler of silica wears die surface roughened, which results in increase of adhesion strength. As big differences in experimental results from semiconductor manufacturers are dependent on EMC models, however, chemisorptions or acid-base interaction is apt to be also functioning as major mechanisms. In this investigation, the plasma source ion implantation (PSII) using $O_2$, $N_2$, and $CF_4$ modifies sample surface to form a new dense layer and improve surface hardness, and change metal surface condition from hydrophilic to hydrophobic and vice versa. Through surface energy quantification by measuring contact angle and surface ion coupling state analysis by Auger, major governing mechanism for sticking issue was figured out to be a complex of mechanical and chemical factors.

For the mold die sticking mechanism, the major explanation is that the silica as a filler in EMC (epoxy molding compound) wears die surface to be roughened, which results in increase of adhesion strength. As the sticking behavior, however, showed strong dependency on the EMC models based on the experimental results from different semiconductor manufacturers, chemisorption or acid-base interaction is apt to be also functioning as major mechanisms. In this investigation, the plasma source ion implantation (PSII) using $O_2, N_2$, and $CF_4$ modifies sample surface to form a new dense layer and improve surface hardness, and change metal surface condition from hydrophilic to hydrophobic or vice versa.
