Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI) has been operating the Post Irradiation Examination Facility (PIEF) for spent fuel. The facility has pools and hot cells for handling and examining fuel assemblies and rods. In the first hot cell, non-destructive tests such as visual inspection, defect detection, oxide layer thickness measurement, and gamma scanning are performed on a full-length fuel rod. Then, the fuel rod is transported to the next hot cell for measuring the rod internal pressure (RIP). After the RIP measurement, the fuel rod is cut by a cutting machine to make samples for destructive tests. Currently, the existing cutting machine is broken, so a new machine needed to be designed and manufactured. The major considerations for designing the cutting machine were convenience of remote handling and decontamination. The machine was modularized and its handling parts were designed to be easily controlled by manipulators. The cover was designed to prevent radioactive contamination of the surrounding area.

In the process of cutting large aircraft parts, the tool may be abnormally worn or damaged due to various factors such as mechanical vibration, disturbances such as chips, and physical properties of the workpiece, which may result in deterioration of the surface quality of the workpiece. Because workpieces used for large aircrafts parts are expensive and require strict processing quality, a maintenance plan is required to minimize the deterioration of the workpiece quality that can be caused by unexpected abnormalities of the tool and take maintenance measures at an earlier stage that does not adversely affect the machining. In this paper, we propose a method to indirectly monitor the tool condition that can affect the machining quality of large aircraft parts through real-time monitoring of the current signal applied to the spindle motor during machining by comparing whether the monitored current shows an abnormal pattern during actual machining by using this as a reference pattern. First, 30 types of tools are used for machining large aircraft parts, and three tools with relatively frequent breakages among these tools were selected as monitoring targets by reflecting the opinions of processing experts in the field. Second, when creating the CNC machining program, the M code, which is a CNC auxiliary function, is inserted at the starting and ending positions of the tool to be monitored using the editing tool, so that monitoring start and end times can be notified. Third, the monitoring program was run with the M code signal notified from the CNC controller by using the DAQ (Data Acquisition) device, and the machine learning algorithms for detecting abnormality of the current signal received in real time could be used to determine whether there was an abnormality. Fourth, through the implementation of the prototype system, the feasibility of the method proposed in this paper was shown and verified through an actual example.

본 연구에서는 절삭식 정미기 도입에 따른 실효성을 분석하기 위해 개발된 절삭식 정미기의 경제성을 비용/편익 분석(B/C ratio), 손익분기점, 기존의 정미기와의 비교 및 수입대체효과의 4가지 측면에서 분석하였다. 절삭식 정미기의 가동률에 따른 비용/편익 비율은 가동률 60%, 80%에서 모두 1 초과로 추정되었다. 손익분기점은 가동률 60%에서는 절삭식 정미기 운용을 시작한 지 3.4년 정도 경과한 시점부터 순이익이 발생하였다. 또한 가동률 80%의 경우 정백미 생산을 시작한 지 66일째부터 수익이 발생하여 절삭식 정미기 운용 후 2.56년 정도부터 순이익이 발생하는 것으로 나타났다. 개발된 절삭식 정미기를 기존의 국산 및 수입 정미기 4종과 비교한 결과 국산에 비해서 가격 및 수리비용에서는 다소 높은 값을 보였으나, 에너지 소비량이 적고 설치공간이 작은 장점을 보였다. 수입된 정미기에 비해서는 에너지 소비량, 가격, 설치공간 및 수리비용에서 충분한 경쟁력을 보였다. 이에 따라 수입된 정미기 100대를 개발된 정미기로 대체할 경우 668억 수준의 높은 수입대체효과를 기대할 수 있을 것으로 나타났으며, 국내 시장에서 절삭식 정미기의 시장점유율을 높일 수 있을 것으로 시사되었다.

In order to commercialize large diameter PP pipes, the cutting work was attempted with the cutting machine (∅18″and AL120 cutter, 2100 r.p.m) used for the conventional PE or PVC pipe(∅1200 mm, t 70), but the cutting work was failed because the material of “PP pipe” melted and sticked to the surface of the wheel-cutter. In order to find the optimal structure and number of blades for wheel-cutters, an experimental investigation the temperature measurement of specimen and wheel-cutter and the visualization of cutted specimen surface and chip shape were carried out during and after experiment. In addition, modelings for cutting and heat transfer mechanisms have been developed for theoretical analysis. The theoretical and experimental results were in good agreement. The results show that the appropriate structure and the rotational speed of wheel-cutter are W60 and 650 rpm for the large diameter PP pipe cutting machine.

As the demand for high-speed and high-precision machining increases, the need for cooling and filtering of cutting oil is high. A new concept of coolant heat exchange filter is developed by installing cooling coil through which refrigerant(R410-a) passes through the coolant filtering device. For structural safety evaluation of the heat exchanger filter for cutting oil suppling device of machine tool, thermal stress and vibration analysis were performed using ANSYS program. The results of structural and thermal stress analyses have led to the conclusion that the cooling system has structural stability. From modal analysis, first natural frequency is 12.37 hz and deformation is 22.041 mm. Sixth natural frequency is 26.887 hz and deformation is 25.563 mm.

This study aimed to identify milling characteristics depending on the number of a cutting roller’s air vent and blowing velocity to remove rice bran by the cutting type milling machine which can minimize the conventional milling process. The level of whiteness was found to be 38±0.5 in all the conditions, showing consistent whiteness levels during milling. The rice temperatures turned out to be 15.4 and 14.6oC which were rather low-level under the conditions of the cutting roller with 3 vents and blowing velocities of 35 and 40 m/s respectively. Cracked rice ratio was 2.13% under the conditions of the cutting roller with 3 vents and a blowing velocity of 35 m/s. Broken rice ratio showed the range of 0.762-0.869%, reflecting a low level. Turbidity after milling was decreased, as blowing velocity became faster. Energy consumption for milled rice production was decreased, as blowing velocity became faster. The optimum milling condition for cutting type milling machine depending on air vent number of cutting roller and blowing velocity was found to be 3 vents and 35 m/s.

The study is the development of stone processing machines for larger blocks of stone for more than 2 meters. The wire saw were replaced by the cutting of existing prototypes and employed as a new form of cutting tools equipped with industrial diamonds. In addition, a turn table was developed to enable the milling of large blocks of stone allowing them to spin. On the other hand, large processing machinery has been imported and used mostly by Chinese machinery and has caused many inconveniences in managing and using equipment. Therefore, it is difficult for domestic production products to remain unstable, thus maintaining the nation`s crumbling granite industry. As a result, it is uncomfortable to find domestic products, but it is difficult to maintain the domestic stone industry. Therefore, we look forward to the revitalization of the domestic stone industry through this development.

There is a growing demand for improving the welding quality by reducing the machining error and improving the quality of the machined surface in the beveling for the improvement of the welding groove of the thick plate. For this purpose, it is necessary to develop an automatic beveling machine that adopts a cutting method that replaces the conventional oxygen flame cutting method. In this study, the cutting characteristics according to the machining conditions were evaluated during the face milling applied to the thick plate welding groove. We measured and evaluated cutting force for the machining conditions such as cutting depth, feed rate, chamfer angle, workpiece material, and material of the tool. We expect that this study is used as basic data for designing the stiffness of the spindle, the strength of the fixture and the power of the spindle and the feeding device when designing the automatic beveling machine.

The consumption of pre-treated vegetables (including fresh-cut vegetables) has been significantly increased because of their ease of use for cooking. Vegetable cutting machine has been widely utilized for producing fresh-cut vegetables or agricultural products with different sizes; however, its design standard is not specifically established depending on types of agricultural products. Therefore, this study was conducted to determine mechanical properties (compressive and shear force) of targeted agricultural products (radish, carrot, squash, cucumber, shiitake mushroom and sweet potato) for developing multipurpose vegetable cutting machine. According to ASAE standard (s368.3), compressive and shear force of targeted agricultural products were measured by using custom built UTM (universal testing machine). Shape type of samples and speed ranges (5~15 mm/min) of loading rate on bioyield and shear points were varied by targeted agricultural products. The range of averaged bioyield points of targeted agricultural products were between 7.89 and 146.98 N. On the other hands, their averaged shear points were from 22.50 to 53.47 N. Results clearly showed that the bioyield and shear points of targeted agricultural products were thoroughly affected by their components. As accumulating compressive and shear points of agricultural products, it can be technical feasible to establish the design standard and control mechanism of multipurpose vegetable cutting machine.

In this study, we conducted an interrupted cutting SM20C with lathe and uncoated carbite tool, determined the relationship between Cutting Forces(principal, radial, feed force) by correlation analysis, and predicted the optimum cutting conditions by multiple regression analysis. The result were as follow. : From the correlation analysis, the increase of cutting speed and depth of cut reduces the principal force and radial force. the increase of cutting speed, depth of cut and feed rate will increase the feed force. From multi-regression analysis, we extracted regression equation and the coefficient of determination (R2) was 0.638, 0.692, 0.536 at principal, radial and feed force . It means that the regression equation is not high accuracy. However, it is predictable that the tendency of the forces action the interrupted cutting.
