The optimal drill helix angle, point angle, and cutting conditions are recommended in the study so as to maximize the drilling performance by investigating the experimental reaults concerning with the state of chip formation, roundness of machined holes, and geometry of projected burr at hole exit, which are examined under the conditions of various helix angles, drill point angles of twist drill, cutting speeds, and feeds in operional parameters. In the easiness of chip escape, the helical type of chip is producted when a helix angle is 30$^{\circ}$, drill point angle 118$^{\circ}$, 140$^{\circ}$and feed is st between 0.1 and 0.15mm/rev. Roundness of machined hole is improved when the helix angle is 37$^{\circ}$, drill point angle is 118$^{\circ}$, and feed is 0.15mm/rev. The height of projected burr at the button of machined hole increases when the drill point angle and helix angle becomes large.

This study shows how the change of helix angle of different helix angle end mill affects machining accurracy. It was verified that cutting force are remarkably low when endmill has helix angle of different helix angle 250, 310, 370 and AE signal have less reationshap with the change of helix angle. Moreover, as the number of rotations are increases, the AE signal increased with the proportion to the number but cutting force are inversely proportional to the rotation.

This study shows how the change of helix angle for different helix angle end mill affects machining accuracy. It was verified that cutting forces are remarkably low when endmill has helix angle of different helix angle $25^{\circ}\;, \; 31^{\circ}\; , \; 37^{\circ}$and AE signals have less relationship with the chance of helix angle Moreover, as the number of rotations are increased, the AE signals are increased with the proportion to the number but cutting forces are inversely proportional to the rotation.

Extruders are the heart of the polymer processing industry. The single most important mechanical element of a screw extruder is the screw. The proper design of the geometriy of the extruder screw is of crucial importance to the proper functioning of the extruder. If material transport instabilities occur as a result of improper screw geometry, even the most sophisticated computerized control system cannot solve the problem. For this purpose, characteristics design on helix angle of the extruder screw. This paper presents strength of the screw flight, optimum helix angle versus dimensionless down channel pressure gradient, optimum helix angle versus the power law index in simultaneous optimization, volumetric efficiency versus helix angle at various number of flights and power consumption versus helix angle in the barrel of screw extruder.

The newly developed cone drum twister is one of the outer surface contacting friction-twisting devices in false-twist texturing. An investigation of the drag angle for the newly developed cone drum twister texturing mechanism is reported. An analysis is given from which equations can be derived that relate to the conical angle of cone drum, wrapping angle, drag angle, and yam helix angle. Theoretical values of drag angle are calculated and discussed. It is shown that, as the helix angle and the projected wrapping angle increases, the drag angle also increases slowly until the helix angle of $40^{\circ}$ but after the helix angle of $40^{\circ}$ the drag angle increases rapidly. Furthermore the higher the projected wrapping angle and conical angle, the higher the drag angle of friction surface.

The experimental research was conducted to find an end mill with an ideal helix angle, which has a superior anti-vibration effect and a low machining tolerance. A conventional endmill which all low blades are $30^{\circ}$ helix angles and a different helix angle endmill which the opposite two blades are $30^{\circ}$ and the other opposites are different helix angles were studied. The cutting farce, machining tolerance and surface roughness were obtained. The AE signals appeared to have low values in up-milling rather than in down-milling. These are also appeared to have low values at low spindle revolutions rates. The cutting force values of Fxy and Fxyz were found to be increased according to the value of helix angle. In up-milling, it was difficult to find a definite tendency in machining tolerance, but in down-milling machining tolerance of the different helix angle end mill was found to be lower than that of the convention end mill. There is a definite tendency that the surface roughness gets better as the RPM increases. In down-milling, Type A($25^{\circ}$＋$30^{\circ}$) appeared to bring the most satisfactory result.

The experimental research was conducted to find an end mill with an ideal helix angle, which has a superior anti-vibration effect and a low machining-tolerance. A conventional endmill which all four blades are $30^\circ$ helix angles and a different helix angle endmill which the opposite two blades are $30^\circ$ and the other opposites are different helix angles were studied. The cutting force, machining tolerance and surface roughness were obtained. The AE signals appeared to have low values in up-milling rather than in down-milling. These are also appeared to have low values at low spindle revolutions rates. The cutting force values of Fxy and Fxyz were found to be increased according to the value of helix angle. In up-milling, it was difficult to find a definite tendency in machining tolerance, but in down-milling, machining tolerance of the different helix angle end mill was found to be lower than that of the convention end mill. There is a definite tendency that the surface roughness gets better as the RPM increases. In down-milling, Type $A(25^\circ+30^\circ)$ appeared to bring the most satisfactory result.

In this paper, the FEM(Finite Element Method) has been applied to understand the geometrical characteristics and to analyze the stress of a helical gear. The helical gear is simulated and analyzed by adding many thin spur gear with helix angles and twist angles. Helical gears with different helix angle and face width have been studied. The results show that the root fillet stress is increased proportionally to helix angle and face width. Namely, as the face width increases, root fillet stress decreases, and as helix angle gets bigger, root fillet stress increases.

Development of five axis tool grinding machine and CAD/CAM systems increase tool design flexibility. In this research, investigated are cutting characteristics of ball-end mill with different helix angle. Special WC ball-end mills with $0^{\circ}$, $10^{\circ}$, $20^{\circ}$, $30^{\circ}$ helix angles are designed and used in various cutting tests. Machining performance according to helix angle variation is evaluated from cutting forces, surface roughness, tool wear, produced chip shape, and vibration characteristics. The ball-end mill with $10^{\circ}$ helix angle shows the best cutting performance due to appropriate chip load distribution and smooth chip flow. This research can be used for cutting edge geometry optimization and novel design of ball-end mill.

The ball end mill is a type of cutting tool that is widely used to process complex mold shapes including aspheric surfaces. Unlike the flat end mill in which the cutting edge is formed on the cylindrical handle, the cutting edge is formed from the cylindrical handle to the hemispherical shape, which is advantageous for processing curved shapes. However, since the cutting speed continuously changes during machining due to the helix angle of the cutting edge or the machining inclination angle, it is difficult to obtain a precise machined surface. Therefore, in this paper, machining was performed while changing the helix angle of the ball end mill and the angle of the machining slope under the same cutting conditions for STD 11 material, which is widely used as a mold material. Through this, the effect of the two variables on the roughness of the machined surface was analyzed. As a result, if the helix angle was 0 degrees, it showed the best surface roughness of Ra. 0.16 ㎛. When the helix angle was 20 degrees, the best surface roughness of Ra. 0.18 ㎛ was occurred.
