Among investment for dental casting, we selected 4 kinds of investment(2 Gypsum-bonded and 2 Phosphate-bonded) and prepard 120 specimen by dividing into two cast of using Ring and Ringless case from $0^{\circ}C$ to $30^{\circ}C$ at interval of $10^{\circ}C$ to invest in fluence on the fitness of casting body according to the liquid temperature of Gypsum-bonded and Phosphate-bonded investment. The result was as follows; 1. Gypsum-bonded investment showed best fitness at $30^{\circ}C$ representing difference of singnificance in order of $20^{\circ}C$, $10^{\circ}C$, and $0^{\circ}C$, From the difference of investment, Deguvest was proved superior than Cristobalite. 2. Phosphate-bonded investment showed no severe difference at $10^{\circ}C$ and $20^{\circ}C$, but showed better fitness at $10^{\circ}C$, representing difference of significance in order of $0^{\circ}C$, $30^{\circ}C$, difference of significance was shown between investment also. 3. In Ringless investing method, there were no difference of significance in Deguvest CF and Unovest. 4. When using a Ring with a Sheet of asbestos liner installed, there was some difference of significance representing superiority of Ringless investing method.

3Y-TZP/SUS316 Functionally Graded Material (FGM) was fabricated by slip casting method. Alumina mold was used to overcome problems of gypsum mold in slip casting process, and the optimal dispersion con-ditions of 3Y-TZP/SUS316 binary slurries was determined using electrokinetic sonic amplitude and a viscometer, and observing sedimentation behavior. The properties of the specimens casted by gypsum mold and alumina mold were compared in terms of changes in shrinkage rate, drying and sintering conditions, and microstructure. It was found that the specimens obtaine from the alumina mold showed a clean surface, easier thickness control of each layer, and higher productivity. Especially, no degradation was observed in the SUS316 prepared using alumina mold. Thus it is desirable to use porous alumina mold rather than gyp-sum mold for the slip casting of 3Y-TZP/SUS316-FGM.

Manufacturing conditions of the porous alumina mold were established to overcome various limits of the gypsum mold. For the preparations of the porous alumina mold, an activated charcoal was added to the Al2O3 with the wt% variation and then mixed. The binary slurry was study dispersed based on the examination of the ESA and rheological behaviro. The cylinder type alumina mold was cast in the gyspum mold and characterized by the shrinkage rate at the variable sintering temperature and the resistance against wear. It was proper to make a sintering of the Al2O3 by the surface diffusion which was non-shrinkage sintering mechansim, and intergranular neck growed stronger while sintering was being made. We studied a sintering by three categories; 1) thermodynamic method below 1,000$^{\circ}C$, 2) kinetic method above 1,000$^{\circ}C$ and 3) combined method. In the results of the respective works, combined method was superiro to the others. The prepared Al2O3 mold had relatively high strength, low drying rate, the resistance against the acid or base and good casting behavior.

Conventional methods for preparing ceramic bodies, such as cold isostatic pressing, gypsum-mold slip casting, and filter pressing are not completely suitable for fabricating large and thick ceramic plates owing to disadvantages of these processes, such as the high cost of the equipment, the formation of density gradients, and differential shrinkage during drying. These problems can be avoided by employing a pressure-vacuum hybrid slip casting approach that considers not only by the compression of the aqueous slip in the casting room (pressure slip casting) but also the vacuum sucking of the dispersion medium (water) around the mold (vacuum slip casting). We prepared the alumina formed bodies by means of pressure-vacuum hybrid slip casting with stepwise pressure loading up to 0.5 MPa using a slip consisting of 40 vol% solid, 0.6 wt% APC, 1 wt% PEG, and 1 wt% PVA. After drying the green body at $30^{\circ}C$ and 80% RH, the green density of the alumina bodies was about 56% RD. The sintered density of an alumina plate created by means of sintering at $1650^{\circ}C$ for 4 h exceeded 99.8%.This method enabled us to fabricate a $110{\times}110{\times}20$ mm alumina plate without cracks and with a homogeneous density, thus demonstrating the possibility of extending the method to the fabrication of other ceramic products.

Investment casting is a production method commonly used to manufacture precision equipment, medical fields, and accessories, and has continued to develop through the modernization of equipment and high quality of materials, and its scope of use has been expanded. The purpose of this study is to minimize the defect rate by deriving structural improvement and standardization of mold temperature, which are key elements of the investment casting process, to minimize the defect rate. The scope of the study is limited to jewelry manufacturing casting processes suitable for understanding the structure and principles of small gate, and an experimental research is to be conducted by using soft Wax, gypsum powder, and 14 K gold as research materials. According to the results, the most appropriate casting standard temperature for the casting pattern of Alloy 14 k was the lowest turbulence at 980℃ flask temperature of 550℃, so good products could be produced. As a future task of this study, detailed studies are needed to data the structure and system temperature of small gate, reduce production defects in the field, and provide data for excellent investment casting competitiveness.

Many recent development activities suggest the possibility of a high-speed turbo(centrifugal) compressor or blower for the industrial application of compressed air supplying system when used with the most advanced high-speed motor, inverter technology, and advanced bearing for high rotational speed. The problems to be overcome are of reliability, the application of mass production methods, cost effective manufacture and competitive running costs. This presentation is not focused on a specific technology advances but on an overall review of our recent experiences while we have developed the high pressure turbo blower for the commercial purpose.
