The chips may be produced in the form of either broken chips or unbroken chips in turning process. The unbroken chips are dangerous to the operator and difficult to handle at high speed machining. The signal of Acoustic Emission is related to cutting conditions, tool materials, test conditions and tool geometry in turning. The relationship between AE signal and chip formation was experimentally investigated. The experimental results show that two types of chip formations are possible to classify from the statistical analysis of the amplitude of AE signal. The AE-sensor could be used to monitor the chip condition in turning.

To exchange CAD data between heterogeneous CAD systems, we generally use a neutral format especially STEP, which is the international standard (ISO-10303) for product model data exchange. AP214 (Application Protocol) for the automotive industry not only takes into account geometry and organizational data, but also provides a classification mechanism for product modeling. When reading a STEP file during a design process that is exported from other CAD systems, it is a burden to a designer to go through the tedious process of removing duplicate or non-manifold entities, adjusting parts, and rearranging text. We analyze the structure of AP214 and develop a healing tool to solve the following problem. Without the assembly information in the Master workspace of CATIA, or to read a STEP file from Pro/Engineer, a designer should do a repetitive process of disintegrating an assembly into parts one by one. We have developed a post-processing tool for STEP AP214 that separates out a part from an assembly model and adjusts superfluous or useless entities using the ACIS kernel.

Experimental studies have been carried out to obtain uniform cups by one operation of backward extrusion. A lot of factors on dimensional accuracy of backward extruded cups are billet material, billet shape, punch shape, punch velocity, geometry of tool, tool material, and lubrication etc. In manufacturing cup-shaped parts by backward extrusion, it is very important to design the initial billet shape or the preform. The objective of this paper is to find that the shape of the initial billet is related to dimensional accuracy and also to manufacture the more accurate product simultaneously reducing the loss of material as forming the shape of the initial billet by means of upsetting.

In automatic metal cuttings, the chip control is one of the serious problems. So the automatic detection of chip forms is essential to the chip control in automatic metal cuttings. Cutting experiments were carried out under the variety of cutting conditions (cutting speed, feed, depth of cut and tool geometry) and with workpiece made of steel (S45C), and cutting forces were measured in-processing by using a piezoelectric type Tool Dynamometer. In this report, the frequency analysis of dynamic components, the upper frequency distributions, the ratio of RMS values, the numbers of null point and the probability density were calculated from the dynamic componeents of cutting forces filtered through various band pass filters. Experimental results showed that computer chip form monitoring system based on the cutting forces was designed and simulated and that 6 type of chip forms could be detected while in-process machining.

In turning, the chip may be produced in the form of continuous chip or discontinuous chip. The continuous chips are dangerous to the operator and difficult to be handled at high speed machining. The signal of AE(Acoustic Emission) is found out to be related to cutting conditions, tool materials, test conditions and tool geometry in turning. In this study, the relationship between AE signal and chip form was experimentally investigated. The experimental results show that the types of chip form are possible to be classified from the AE signal using fuzzy logic.

This paper presents on research findings of how Visual C++ program can be used to generate codes capable of performing ramjet engine simulation To understand the diversity and applicability of this tool an arbitrary ramjet model will be considered for which generated output values will be compared with those from a commercial program GASTURB 9 iterated under the same input parameters. Several governing thermodynamic equations will first be discussed in order that we understand the fundamental idea behind values printed out on the GUI. C++ compiler was chosen as a tool of use due to its availability, ease of use, ability to compute functions faster and uniquely possible to make a stand alone GUI executable in DOS mode. The program is developed in such a way that given the ambient flight conditions, burner exit temperature and several geometry areas the program generates its own input values used in the succeeding stations. A close resemblance of output values that define performance and thermodynamic state of the engine was realized between GASTURB 9 and using this code made from C++ compiler.

This paper encompasses a general technology in robot deburring automation using solid rotaing burr tools. Deburring is a cumbersome area in finishing technology, where design concept and system implementation is based on knowhows and experiences rather then theoretical development. In the field engineering it is diffcult to find a clue to where and how to start the system design. This paper presents a guide inselection of tool concept of geometry and material. Also, the concept of tool compliance system is introduced, which is one of the most important factor in robot deburring. Typical problems encountered in the field are classified into 20 categories and the solutions are suggested by the proven technology from the expertise. Special problems in polymer and diecasting areas are also briefly mentioned.

As the consumer market in the VR(virtual reality) and the head-up display industry grows, the demand for 5-axis machines and grooving machines using on a ultra-precision machining increasing. In this paper, ultra-precision diamond tools satisfying the cutting edge width of 500 nm were developed through the process research of a focused ion beam. The material used in the experiment was a single-crystal diamond tool (SCD), and the equipment for machining the SCD used a focused ion beam. In order to reduce the influence of the Gaussian beam emitted from the focused ion beam, the lift-off process technology used in the semiconductor process was used. 2.9 ㎛ of Pt was coated on the surface of the diamond tool. The sub-micron tool with a cutting edge of 492.19 nm was manufactured through focused ion beam machining technology. Toshiba ULG-100C(H3) equipment was used to process fine-pattern using the manufactured ultra-precision diamond tool. The ultra-precision machining experiment was conducted according to the machining direction, and fine burrs were generated in the pattern in the forward direction. However, no burr occurred during reverse machining. The width of the processed pattern was 480 nm and the price of the pitch was confirmed to be 1 ㎛ As a result of machining.

The worn crater wear geometry of coated tools after machining has been configured by using Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy(CLSM) and the Wavelet-based filtering technique. The CLSM can be well suited to construct the three-dimensional crater wear on the rake surfaces of coated tips. However, The raw heightness data of HEI(height encoded image) acquired by CLSM must be filtered due to the electronic and imaging noise occurring in constructing the crater image. So the Wavelet-based filtering algorithm is necessary to denoise the shape features in a micro scales so as to realize accurate crater wear topography analysis. The crater wear patterns filtered enable us to predict the crater wear shape in order to study the tool wear evolution. The study shows that the technique by combining the CLSM and Wavelet-based filtering is an excellent one to obtain the geometries of worn tool rake surfaces over a wide range of surface resolution in a micro scale.

The atomic force microscopy (AFM) based lithographic technique has been used directly to machine material surface and fabricate nano components in MEMS (micro electro mechanical system). In this paper, three-dimensional molecular dynamics (MD) simulations have been conducted to evaluate the characteristic of deformation process at atomistic scale for nano-lithography process. Effects of specific combinations of crystal orientations and cutting directions on the nature of atomistic deformation were investigated. The interatomic force between diamond tool and workpiece of copper material was assumed to be derived from the Morse potential function. The variation of tool geometry and cutting depth was also evaluated and the effect on machinability was investigated. The result of the simulation shows that crystal plane and cutting direction significantly influenced the variation of the cutting forces and the nature of deformation ahead of the tool as well as the surface deformation of the machined surface.
