The wire displacement of wire electric discharge machine has been measured using He-Ne laser. A measurement system consisted of He-Ne laser, A/D converter, 4 divided photodiode, amplifier, sensor process instrument, and personal computer. The processing parameters were varid with feed rate, wire tension, wire speed and voltage. The laser beam intensity transmitted on a 4 divided photodiode was varied by processing wire electric descharge machine with various process parameters. The 4 divided photodiode and amplifier were used to change the detected beam intensity into voltage. Variation of wire displacement was between 11 and 125 .mu. m. The wire tension was dominant on the variation of wire displacement among many parameters.

In the study, we have developed a straightening system for 304 micro wires that are normally used in the medical and semi-conductor fields. To apply heat to the micro wires, we introduced the direct wire heating method which generates the thermal energy by the electrical resistance of the wire itself. To avoid the deterioration of the wire surface by the environment, such as the oxidation or the hydration, the $N_2$ gas was filled in the glass pipe in which the straightening process was being performed. A precision tension meter was also attached to control the tension of the wire during the heating and straightening process. In order to control the straightening process, several experimental investigations with varying the tension, the feeding velocity and the temperature (current) was carried out. As a result of experiments, we obtained the optimal processing conditions satisfying the straightness requirement of the micro wires.

From the experimental study of wire-cut Electric Discharge Machining of alloyed tool steel and tungsten carbide, the characteristics such as cutting speed, surface roughness has been observed and evaluated for various conditions. Cutting speed is improved as peak discharge current and wire tension become increased, and gap voltage and spark cycle decreased. Surface roughness can be better when peak discharge current and gap voltage become smaller, or spark cycle and wire tension become larger. Secondary cut is recommended to obtain high precision and good quality.

Along with the increase of railway catenary system operation speed to 400 km/h, there have been growing demands for good quality current collection systems that satisfy quality standards as well as criteria for safe working. Retaining uniform elasticity tension of contact wires is essential in maintaining high quality contact between pantograph and OCL (Overhead Contact Line) of current collection systems in high speed railways. Therefore, the tension of contact wire must be kept within tight tolerance limits in both working conditions and adverse weather conditions of catenary system. In accordance with these conditions, this paper presents a real time monitoring system for the tensioning device of the newly installed catenary system on the special route of Honam high speed line for 400 km/h operation. For the verification of the true value of tension of contact wires, we have developed ring-type tensioning sensors which were installed on supporting points of mast which compose the catenary system. According to the field test performed on the Honam high speed line catenary system, variation of tension was measured accurately in real-time.

There is a method for stringing conductors which is connected to a wire over transmission towers by helicopter or human power and the wire and conductors are pulled by an engine puller. The length of one string section is usually 4-6 km and 2-4 conductors are strung at the same time with a single wire. A tensioner is used to maintain the sag and a running board is installed between the wire and conductors to prevent the rotation of conductors but the variance in topology, the line angle and unequal wiring tension between conductors causes conductor rotation damage or the conductor connection point to breakaway when the pulley is passed. This paper presents a method to prevent conductor rotation during stringing by inserting a pulley in the running board and equally maintaining conductor tension by sling wire after developing and testing.

In this paper, an approach to designing controllers for dynamic hybrid Tension/Mobile control of a installed robot for a troy wire cable is presented. Mobile control system of robot is designed based on equation of dc motor and tension control system is designed based on equation of ac servomotor for generating torque and dynamic equation of a wire cable. Dynamic hybrid control system is proposed by feedforward controller with acceleration and tension at start of robot to the case where the tow task of robot dynamics is suppressed a mutual interference. The proposed system is simulated and experimented, results is verified the utilities.

Early detection of premonitory symptom of slope movement ensures tremendous saving of lives and repair costs from catastrophic disaster. Therefore, it is essential to constantly monitor the performance and integrity of both reinforced and un-reinforced cut slopes. We developed a novel monitoring system by using tension wire sensors. It's advantages are highly sensitivity, simple installation, large displacement measurement, durability of system, capability of remote sensing. Real-time measurement of slope surface movement is shown graphically and it gives a warning when the monitored value exceeds a given threshold level so that any sign of abnormal slope movement can be easily perceived.

Micro electrical discharge machining (EDM) as a non-contact machining process is very effective for micromachining with a thin electrode because of its low machining reaction force. The micro-electrode machining device has the advantage of maintaining high precision through the whole processes and uses a feeding wire in the thin electrode tool manufacturing process. This study describes the design and evaluation of a micro-electrode machining device using optical photo-interrupter. The electrode was fabricated by reverse electrical discharge machining. The performance of designed system was evaluated to measure tension force according to feed speed of wire. This system for micro electrode fabrication proves the feasibility in the micro-EDM process of the micro holes and parts for industrial applications.

Recently, power demand has been increasing every year according to variation of electrical equipments and temperature rise in summer season. So, much more overhead line is being demanded to copy with increasing power demand and operate reliable power system. This paper analysis the characteristics of long span overhead transmission line using special high-tension wire in such as a safety factor, coefficient of elasticity, and the coefficient of linear expansion. Based on the analysis, we proposed the effectiveness of special high-tension wire having much more advantages with respect to height of steel tower and dip compared with conventional ACSR in long span overhead transmission line.
