Presented here are 88 refereed papers given at the 35th MATADOR Conference held at the National University of Taiwan in Taipei, Taiwan in July 2007. The MATADOR series of conferences covers the topics of Manufacturing Automation and Systems Technology, Applications, Design, Organisation and Management, and Research. The proceedings of this conference contains original papers contributed by researchers from many countries on different continents. The papers cover the principles, techniques and applications associated with: manufacturing processes; technology; system design and integration; and computer applications and management. The papers in this volume reflect: • the importance of manufacturing in international wealth creation; • the emerging fields of micro- and nano-manufacture; • the increasing trend towards the fabrication of parts using additive processes; • the growing demand for precision engineering and part inspection techniques; • measurement techniques and equipment.

Metal removal processes - cutting and grinding in this book - are an integral part of a large number of manufacturing systems, either as the primary manufacturing process, or as an important part of preparing the tooling for other manufacturing processes. In recent years, industry and educational institutions have concentrated on the metal removal system, perhaps at the expense of the process. This book concentrates on metal removal processes, particularly on the modeling aspects that can either give a direct answer or suggest the general requirements as to how to control, improve or change a metal removal process. This modeling knowledge is more important with automated computer controlled systems than it has ever been before, because quantitative knowledge is needed to design and operate these systems. This senior undergraduate/graduate textbook is aimed at providing the quantitative knowledge, often times at an elementary level, for handling the technological aspects of setting up and operating a metal removal process and interpreting the experience of planning, operating and improving a metal removal process based on rule of thumb approaches.

Advances in Machine Tool Design and Research 1967, Part I covers the proceedings of the 8th International M.T.D.R. conference (incorporating the 2nd international CIRP production engineering research conference) held in the University of Manchester, Institute of Science and Technology on September 1967. The book covers the accuracy of automatically controlled machine tools; the influence of the rigidity of the machine-workpiece-tool system on the roughness of the machined surface; and the analysis of machine tool structure by computing techniques. The text also discusses sensors of tool life for optimization of machining; pre-set tooling and its application; and system 24, a new concept of manufacture. The design of hydrostatic journal bearings; the computer approach for storage of machinability data and calculation of machining costs and production rates; and a comparison of different measuring and indicating methods for the determination of pitch errors of large precision gears are also encompassed. The book further presents the calibration of tool/work thermocouples, as well as the effect of tool flank wear on the temperatures generated during metal cutting.

The book is aimed at practitioners, engineers, researchers, students and teachers. The approach is direct, concise and authoritative. Progressing through each major element of the grinding system and then on to machine developments and process control, the reader becomes aware of all aspects of operation and design. Trends are described demonstrating key features. Coverage includes abrasives and super-abrasives, wheel design, dressing technology, machine accuracy and productivity, grinding machine design, high-speed grinding technology, cost optimization, ultra-precision grinding, process control developments, vibration control, coolants and fluid delivery. - Trends in high precision and high speed grinding are explored - Principles underlying improvements in machines and processes are explained - Numerically worked examples give scale to essential process parameters - Recent research findings and original contributions to knowledge are included - A number of ultra-precision grinding machine developments are included
