Recently industry of motor vehicle is making a gradual progress of automotive electric components. According to this step, wire harness equipped at motor vehicle is also increased. The most important component at the wire harness is electric connector. At the manufacturing process of electric connector, exactly at the crimping process, design variables, such as clamping-height, clamping-width and clamping die shape are critical parameters to assure satisfactory harness shape in clamping process of electric connector. In this study we have performed FEM simulation for clamping process and clarified the effect of design variables on compression rate of wire.

Inner part is used as an insulator in wire fuses. After injection molding, inner part has been showed flashes, filling defects and deformation. After production, operators have to cut off flashes, one by one. this process leads to continuous low productivity and loss of source materials. This study focuses on identifying the causes for flashes, filling defects, clamping force of injectors, mold adhesion, resin of liquidity and others, and on resolving those issues.

The purpose of this study is to introduce a new spacer damper for the bundle transmission lines network. It has the special design, the main characteristics and advantage of this new kind of spacer damper. An Existing spacer damper with bolted clamps, although widely used, is a method of connection with certain disadvantage both as regards assembly on the conductor and in the course of time. Even if tightening torque is correctly applied by using bolt with share head or torque wrench during working time, the aeolian vibration could involve untightening during life time, so the cable can move into the Jaws and wire's breakage appear. To salve this problems, France, Japan and other countries had developed a spacer damper with an automatic system through many years. This new spacer damper is an original automatic clamping device (beltless) which does not require special tool for its installation. This device prevents clamp unlocking problems, ensures a simple installation and ensures a reliable-tightening during life time. Therefore, it is necessary to localize this boltless spacer damper with automate clamping device.

The high-speed railway of catenary system, supplies a stable electric power supply to the train by satisfying the special conditions between pantograph and trolley wire, which operates more than 250km/h mutually sliding and feeding electric lines. According to Korean Railway Standard KRS PW 0026-13 (R), the standard for the grip strength of the dropper clamp in conventional line is established, but the high-speed railway line is not yet. When the grip strength of the dropper clamp is detached from the catenary line of the high-speed railway line, various problems may occur, such as damage to the pantograph due to the collision and arcing. In this paper, it is expected to be used as a basic data for establishing the durability criteria of the high-speed railway dropper clamp by verifying the dropper clamp on the Gyeong-bu and Honam high-speed line.

This paper proposes a torque predictive control for dynamic performance improvement of clamping force in electro-mechanical brake (EMB) for railroad cars. In general, pneumatic braking system (PBS) is used for railroad cars. It is sensitive depending on environmental changes and it has increasing idle running time because of slow dynamic response. Additionally, the PBS has low braking efficiency in case braking torque more than standard value is applied to the brake system such as emergency braking. In order to overcome these disadvantages of the PBS, the EMB is used for the railroad cars. The EMB for railroad cars has advantages that increasing the fuel efficiency and design flexibility because it is able to decrease vehicle weight of railroad cars and secure space for design. In this paper, control method for dynamic performance improvement of clamping force in EMB for railroad car is proposed. The effectiveness of the proposed control method is verified by the simulation results.

The brake-by-wire technology is a new automotive chassis system that allows standard braking operations by electronic components with lighter weights and faster response. The brake-by-wire units such as EMB (Electro-Mechanical Brake) are controlled by electronic sensors and actuators and, thus, the fault diagnosis is essential for implementation. In this study, a model-based fault diagnosis system is developed for the sensors based on the analytical redundancy method. The fault detection algorithm is verified in simulations for various faulty cases. A test bench is built including the EMB unit and the performance of the proposed fault diagnosis system is evaluated through the experiment.

This study examined a brake pad wear compensation method for an Electro-Mechanical Brake (EMB) using the braking test device. A three-phase Interior Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (IPMSM) was applied to drive the actuator of an EMB. Current control, speed control, and position control were used to control the clamping force of the EMB. The wear compensation method was performed using a software algorithm that updates the motor model equation by comparing the motor output torque current with a reference current. In addition, a simple first-order motor model equation was applied to estimate the output clamping force. The operation time to the maximum clamping force increased within 0.1 seconds compared to the brake pad in its initial condition. The experiment verified that the reference operating time was within 0.5 seconds, and the maximum value of the clamping force was satisfied under the wear condition. The wear compensation method based on the software algorithm in this paper can be performed in the pre-departure test of rolling stock.

To analyze the thermal characteristics of wire connection part that is connected to a screw-clamping terminal block depending on screw torque, the normal screw torque defined in KS C 2625 and the abnormal screw torque that can occur due to loosened screws resulting from defective work or aged deterioration were used as experimental variables. After the same load was applied to normal and abnormal screw torques, the thermal characteristics of the wire connector were measured and compared with a thermal imaging camera. The findings from this study will be used to detect heating due to defective screw torque at terminal block connections during electric safety inspection in the future and minimize the hazard of electric fire.

This paper proposes a design method for a 3-phase interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM) and clamping force control method for an electro-mechanical brake (EMB) using co-simulation for a high-speed train (HST). A traditional pneumatic brake system needs much space for the compressor, brake reservoir, and air pipe. However, an EMB system uses up to 50% less space due to the use of a motor and electric wires for controlling the brake caliper. In addition, it can reduce the latency time for brake control because of the fast response and precise control. A train that has many brakes is advantageous for safety because of the control by sharing the braking force. In this paper, a driving method for a cam-shaft-type EMB is modeled. It is different from the ball-screw-type brakes that are widely used in automobiles. In addition, a co-simulation method is proposed using JMAG and Matlab/Simulink. The IPMSM was designed and analyzed with the JMAG tool, and the control system was simulated using Matlab/Simulink. The effectiveness of the co-simulation results of the mechanical clamping force and braking force was verified by comparison with the clamping force specifications of a HEMU-430X HST.

Drilling file is medical mini-drill which is made of Ni-Ti material and has tapered shape. It's for removing teeth nervine which helps the endodontic treatment. All files, saled at domestic market, are imported from U.S. and Europe. Also they have low manufacturing efficiency and high price because it is made by universal 5 axis CNC grinding machine. To solve these problem, 3 axis CNC table, controllable tilting angle spindle and helix angle moving table are devised. To confirm divised CNC grinding machine's manufacturing accuracy, conveying amount and finish product size measurement expreiment has been practiced. Also to automate all manufacturing processes, automatic mechanism is designed.
