The demand of on-chip total analyzing system with MEMS (micro electro mechanical system) bio/chemical sensor is rapidly increasing. In on-chip total analyzing system, to detect the bio/chemical products with submicron feature size, a filtration system with nano-filter is required. One of the conventional methods to fabricate nano-filter is to use direct patterning or RIE (reactive ion etching). However, those procedures are very costly and are not suitable fur mass production. In this study, we suggested new fabrication method for a nano-filter based on replication process, which is simple and low cost process. After the Si master was fabricated by laser interference lithography and reactive ion etching process, the polymeric mold was replicated by UV-imprint process. Metallic nano-filter was fabricated after removing the polymeric part of metal deposited polymeric mold. Finally, our fabrication method was applied to metallic nano-filter with $1{\mu}m$ pitch size and $0.4{\mu}m$ hole size for bacteria sensor application.

In this study, the hot forging technology for precision forming of spline teeth of the inner race in the auto-transmission was developed in order to minimize its finishing allowance. Several blocker and finisher shapes for the precision hot forging process of the inner race were proposed and the forging processes were analyzed using the three-dimensional finite element method. The optimum hot forging process was obtained considering some parameters such as metal flow patterns, forging defects and forming load. Blocker and finisher dies for the hot forging process were designed by selecting the most suitable shapes obtained from the finite element analysis. Experimental works were also performed in order to verify the optimum design of hot forging process.

The speed at which products are developed and released to market is tightly linked to profitability and market share. Hence, many companies are still in a desperate need of real Rapid Tooling (RT) technologies which can really help to expedite their prototype tooling and pre -production tooling for injection molding. Many other companies that have been very skeptical of RT technologies developed so far are working on Hybrid Tooling (HT) that can really meet the market standards. With the conviction that HT can be a reliable alternative for current RT technologies, this paper describes the experimentation how HT process has been being successfully established and effectively applied with typical case studies. Through the experimentation, Ceramic-filled SLA tooling was found to be aptly suited for the low grade mold, and Metal SLS tooling was found to be aptly suited for the medium volume mold both in terms of the lead time, dimensional accuracy, and tooling cost.

PT of epoxy mold type have tendency to occur dielectric breakdown in high voltage system. These are using for measurement of voltage or protection of system and application voltage is 25.8kV. Therefore, for improving a lots of problems like as partial discharge, we had analyze on the destroyed Epoxy molded type PT and processing of production. As a results, we concluded that the reason of dielectric breakdown was defect of processing and degradation of insulation by electrical stress. In this work, We presented a method of solution in processing of production. which is reduction of the PO which was occurred at the insulation material. so we must many try to remove faults, these problems are mainly to winding methods of 1st coil. the other side, Reformation of 1st coil improved property of PD and we could prove it with experiments.

It has been issued to fabricate nano-scale patterns with large-scale in the field of digital display. Also, large-scale fabrication technology of nano pattern is very important not only for the field of digital display but also for the most of applications of the nano-scale patterns in the view of the productivity. Among the fabrication technologies, UV nano imprinting process is suitable for replicating polymeric nano-scale patterns. However, in case of conventional UV nano imprinting process using flat mold, it is not easy to replicate large areal nano patterns. Because there are several problems such as releasing, uniformity of the replica, mold fabrication and so on. In this study, to overcome the limitation of the conventional UV nano imprinting process, we proposed a continuous UV nano imprinting process using a pattern roll stamper. A pattern roll stamper that has nano-scale patterns was fabricated by attaching thin metal stamper to a roll base. A continuous UV nano imprinting system was designed and constructed. As practical examples of the process, various nano patterns with pattern size of 500, 150 and 50nm were fabricated. Finally, geometrical properties of imprinted nano patterns were measured and analyzed.

In gravity die casting, die cooling systems are frequently employed with water cooling to remove the heat of the solidifying metal. Thermal modeling is an important technique in mold design for improving the productivity of the process. Computer simulation system which consists of pre-processor, main solidification simulator and post-processor has been developed for three dimensional solidification analysis of cyclic gravity die casting. The pre-processor is used for mesh generation in a PC system. The modified finite difference method is adopted for the main solidification simulation algorithm during all the casting cycles. The post-processor graphically presents the simulation results. Several experiments in automotive cast piston were carried out. The temperature variations in casting and mold with time are measured experimentally, and the results are compared with calculation results. The effects of cycle number on solidification pattern are also studied. Several experimental results for the prediction of shrinkage defects are compared with calculated results.

This study was numerically investigated on thermal deformation of AC4C and AC7A aluminum alloy casting material for manufacturing the automobile tire mold. The metal casting device was used in order to manufacture the mold product of automobile tire at the actual industrial field. The temperature distribution and the cooling time of these materials were numerically calculated by finite element analysis. Thermal deformation with stress distribution was also calculated form the temperature distribution results. The thermal deformation was closely related to the temperature difference between the surface and inside of the casting. As shown by numerical analysis result, the thermal deformation of AC7A casting material became higher than AC4C casting material. In addition, the results of displacement and stress distributions appeared to be larger at the center parts of casting than on its sides because of the shrinkage caused by the cooling speed difference.

A finite element analysis for near-net-shape forming of A16061 powder was performed under warm rubber isostatic pressing and warm die pressing. The advantages of warm compaction by rubber isostatic pressing were discussed to obtain a part with better density distributions. The shape of rubber mold was designed by determining a cavity shape that provides a desired shape of the final powder compact. To simulate densification and deformed shape of a powder compact during pressing, the elastoplastic constitutive equation based on yield function of Shima-Oyane was implemented into a finite element program(ABAQUS). The hyperelastic constitutive equation based on the Ogden strain energy Potential was employed to analyze nonlinear elastic response of rubber. Finite element results were compared with experimental data for Al6061 powder compacts under warm die pressing and warm isostatic pressing.
