The objective of the study is to construct a sensor fusion system for tool-condition monitoring (TCM) that will lead to a more efficient and economical drill usage. Drill-wear monitoring has an important attribute in the automatic machining processes as it can help preventing the damage of tools and workpieces, and optimizing the drill usage. In this study, we present the architectures of a multi-layer feed-forward neural network with Levenberg-Marquardt training algorithm based on sensor fusion for the monitoring of drill-wear condition. The input features to the neural networks were extracted from AE, vibration and current signals using the wavelet packet transform (WPT) analysis. Training and testing were performed at a moderate range of cutting conditions in the dry drilling of steel plates. The results show good performance in drill- wear monitoring by the proposed method of sensor fusion and neural network analysis.

High speed and heavy cutting performed for improving the surface quality and productivity, are often prevented due to chatter phenomena. Chatter is a violent relative vibration between workpiece and tool in machining of metals, and is an important limiting factor of production rate and surface quality, and reduces the tool life and the dynamic performance of machine tool itself. In this study, in order to suppress the chatter, a modified tool-post combined with the spring and damper was designed and used in the actual cutting test. The results of this study are summerized as follows; The spring and damper adopted in the modified tool-post have the suppressing effects of chatter, and there exists an optimum combination between spring constant and damping ratio.

Quality of endmill applied to high speed Machining can be classified in precision and tool life. Especially, Endmills are damaged easily when high speed machining are occurred vibration and deflection by thin and long shape of endmill, limitation of chip-pocket. Furthermore, Endmills are determined tool life by the quality of base material and the character of coating. This study have carried on research and analysis about grinding technique, circumference technique to improve precision that determine the quality of endmill. As the result of this study, that the technique is able to manufacture endmill applied to high speed Machining have been obtained.

This paper presents feed rate optimizaton of a PMLSM driven feed-slide for mininum vibrations by smoothing velocity curve with finite jerk. First of all, the PMLSM was designed and made to reduce detent force. Next, a PMLSM driven feed-slide system was mathematically modeled as a 4-degree-of-freedom lumped parameter model. The key idea of our vibration minimization method is to find out the most appropriate smooth velocity curve with finite jerk. The validity of our proposed method has been verified by comparing computer simulation results of the feed-slide model with experimental ones.

This paper presents the chatter stability lobes of high speed spindle of five-axis machine tools. Using a FEM, we obtained the frequency response function of a spindle and the stability lobes for evaluation of chatter. In addition, this paper suggest FRF using by FEM for the prediction of chatter stable region and critical cutting depth. Therefore, critical cutting depth of is 1.3586mm and X, Y direction's chatter frequency is 901Hz and 900Hz, respectively.

In this paper, we propose a new defect detection technology for micro-defect on the surface of steel products. Due to depth and size of microscopic defect, slop of surface and vibration of strip, the conventional optical method cannot guarantee the detection performance. To solve the above-mentioned problems and increase signal to noise ratio, a novel retro-schlieren method that consists of retro reflector and knife edge is proposed. Moreover dual switching lighting method is also applied to distinguish uneven micro defects and surface noise. In proposed method, defective regions are represented by a black and white pattern. This pattern is detected by a defect detection algorithm with Gabor filter. Experimental results by simulator for sample defects of cold rolled steel show that the proposed method is effective.

To meet demand of big capacity and high speed rotation for washing machine, more stress from bending and twisting are complexly loaded onto the shaft supporting the horizontal drum, causing problems in fracture strength and fatigue life. Shafting system is mainly divided into flange and shaft. Shaft and flange connected by inserting shaft serration into flange on the process of die casting. When the system is operating, the gap is formed between serration and flange. But, Serration has various design factors and the optimal values can't be easily determined. Using a design of experiment (DOE) based on the FEM (Finite Element Method), this study was performed investigating the interaction effect between the various design factors as well as the main effect of the each design factor under bending, twist and vibration and proposed optimum design using box-behnken method among response surface derived from regression equation of simulation-based DOE.

In the semiconductor and the optical industry a new transport system which can replace the conventional sliding system is required. These systems are driven by magnetic field and conveyer belt. The magnetic field damages semiconductor and contact force scratches the optical lens. The ultrasonic wave driven system can solve these problem. In this paper, the relationship of transporting speed according to the change of flexural beam shape and the effect of transporting speed according to the change of weight and amplification voltage are verified. The vibration behavior of flexural beam in the ultrasonic transport system is experimented using Laser Scanning Vibrometer.

The anisotropic pressure distribution of the hydrodynamic bearing may generate the unstable vibration phenomenon over a certain speed. These vibrations, known as whirl, whip or rotor instability, cannot be sustained over a wide range of rotational spees. Besides these vibrations not only perturb the normal operation of a rotating machine, but may also cause serious damage to the machinery system. And, it is really impossible to change one parameter without changing others, or difficult to fabricate the modified non-circular type bearing, with all the other cures used just now, In this study, hybrid bearing with magnetic exciter is designed for stability improvement of hydrodynamic bearing rotor system without changing mechanical parameters. For stability study, eigenvalue study of the bearing-rotor system is executed by finite element method and results of analyses and experiments show the possibilities of the stability improvement of the hydrodynamic bearing system by using the electricmagnetic force.

In this study, the free vibrations of the cantilever plate, which is one of the most frequently used elements in various machine structures, are analyzed and further the results are utilized to develop the methodology to predict and control the natural frequencies for designing stabilized systems. The proposed method has three major steps. The first step is the frequency response test to investigate the natural frequencies of some plates, then the database is constituted from experiments and the FEM, and finally the natural frequencies are predicted using the database to be cross-checked by the identification test. The result of this study will help design many different stable structures without any complicated calculations.
