CinC Lefebvre - Missing in Action
I suppose it's not all that unusual when a campaign falls apart after the first battle occurs. The meshing of a campaign system to a tabletop gaming really does attach two quite different games together and requires a fair amount of commitment from numerous people.
In any event, the game has been on pause for a few weeks now. I think the primary problem is so few people are set up to game out the battle themselves. This puts a high load on Gavin, who I understand is working a fairly new job with a much larger commute. It's hardly fair division of labour considering he has a family AND needs to debug the system.
Here is the writeups by Mike and Gavin.
At this junction we see another source of trouble for the campaign. The system wasn't explicitly built around the tabletop ruleset. This gives more flexibility by using #'s of troops and an ambiguous fatigue factor but it means that decision have to be made about which rules to use and how to port results back and forth. I think this has also stymied the campaign given that the result have not been re-inputted into the system.
This first/last battle was fought in 6mm with principles of war (which I managed to track down a copy for myself as I was interested by what I had found online HERE). One of the things that appeals to me about this system is the requirement for orders to be given to your formations. Between the orders, and the blinds, the variably amount of actions a given formation generates and the difficulty in changing orders for units you create a fair amount of friction in changing the battle plan on the fly. The use of blinds as either deployed or marching (basically is the rectangle lengthwise or width wise) seems very appropriate for the era. I'm hoping to get to a point where I can get in a game or three myself. I managed to find another example of play for a different era here.
Gavin/Mike noted (if not in their writeup then in the campaign forum) that the forces involved were a bit too large for this system. I know that Malcolm's campaign (the progenitor of this one) used napoleon's battles (the system I've been working towards for my own 15mm naps).
One of the nice results of the campaign is that I've been making progress on painting up my own napoleonic figs. It's a pretty steep cliff you need to ascend to start playing in terms of numbers though. I'm working towards playing a 'small' napoleon's battles scenario with a friend in town, Marengo. The requirements for the french player include: 200 infantry, 12 command stands (of between 1 and 3 figures), 1 artillery base (~4 figs), and 36 cavalry. This doesn't include the breakdown of cavalry and infantry into their different types (light, line, hussar, etc).
I intend to get some pictures of the progress up soonish.

Minutes after New England fishery managers took a vote that cast doubt on the historic industry's future, the prospects most clear to Gloucester fishermen Paul Vitale were his own.
"I'm bankrupt. That's it," said the 40-year-old father of three. "I'm all done. The boat's going up for sale."
The New England Fishery Management Council on Wednesday approved a year-to-year cut of 77 percent on the Gulf of Maine cod limit and 61 percent for Georges Bank cod.
The cuts come on top of a slew of other reductions, ranging from 10 to 71 percent, on the catch of other bottom-dwelling groundfish species, such as haddock and flounder.
Fishermen say now they're staring at industry collapse because they've been left with far too few fish for most boats to make a living.
"We are headed down the wrong course here, of exterminating the inshore fleet, for no good reason," said David Goethel, a New Hampshire fisherman and council member.

FRESNO — A surviving spouse is suing a Fresno County physician, alleging wrongful death and negligence.
Peter D. Farrington filed a complaint Oct. 19 in Fresno County Superior Court against Dr. Michael J. Moffett, alleging the defendant failed to exercise standard care and skill required of medical providers.
According to the complaint, between April 2016 and until her death, July 20, 2016, Patricia J. Farrington was under the care of Moffett. The suit says Peter Farrington ha significantly suffered from the death of his wife, and incurred funeral and burial expenses.
The suit says Moffett misdiagnosed the decedent's illness, provided the wrong medication and failed to instruct the intensive care unit staff at Clovis Community Medical Center and ensure that Patricia Farrington received proper treatment.
The plaintiff alleges Moffett failed to exercise the proper degree of knowledge and skill in examining, diagnosing, treating and caring for Patricia Farrington.
Peter Farrington seeks trial by jury, general damages, funeral and burial expenses, interest and all relief the court deems just. He is representing himself.

60 minutes | CBC | 1999
Economically speaking, times have never been worse for many of us. Millions of people owe billions of dollars; bankruptcies and foreclosures are at all-time highs and unemployment is steadily rising. But there is one group that always does well in desperate times: collection agents
COLLECTION takes us inside the world of people who spend their days hassling the rest of us.
Meet Jason, a young ambitious collector who went into the business because he is eager to make his way up the corporate ladder and knows that, in collections, "turn over is fairly high". For him, as for most of the collectors we meet, every day requires walking a tightrope between efficiency and brutality. "You gotta do what you gotta do to get the dollars in," he says, "Hopefully without stepping on too many people's toes."
Then there is Deanna, a pleasant young woman who is starting to burn out after seven years of collecting. "I like helping people," she says, improbably, adding that if she can help one client figure out a way to pay off debt, that makes up for the rest of the day, which is "95 per cent negative."
On the other side of the calls – or, rather, hiding behind the answering machine – are people like Terry. She has three collection agencies harassing her for the $12,000 she owes in student loans which, unemployed, she has no hope of paying. To her, collection agents "must be fairly disturbed people".
Funny, sad and sometimes infuriating, COLLECTION is an inside look at the toll that our credit society extracts from people on both sides of the ledger.

As an investor, perhaps you are a shareholder of APPLE stock. When you review news clips or IR reports, you might wonder what is behind the acquisition of the headphone company BEATS. You have invested in APPLE because they have been a major innovator and industry leader, so you wonder if this acquisition will add or detract from APPLE's position as leading innovators.
As an APPLE customer, you wonder if your iPhone or iPad will now benefit from improved audio quality, or will you yet again be forced to buy a completely new product to get upgraded technology? You also can't help but wonder why APPLE needed to do such an expensive acquisition to improve sound quality? Won't this acquisition just raise the prices on APPLE purchases?
Perhaps you are a "techie" and get a kick out of analyzing product engineering. You quickly figured out that the BEATS technology isn't all that special. You assume that APPLE has grown to prominence because its executives understand marketing. You wonder if the acquisition of celebrity-driven BEATS is more about marketing. If that is all the acquisition is about, wow…that is expensive marketing.
Maybe you oversee a sizable portfolio or are an asset manager within a wealth management firm. You saw how FACEBOOK recently made some acquisitions to slow competition, control emerging technology and buy time. Maybe that is what is going on at APPLE. After all, Steve Jobs is no longer at the helm. Is APPLE using its resources to buy time? Maybe APPLE's strategic direction isn't all that clear right now.
As a President of a midsized company, you watch the moves of major corporations like APPLE. You wonder if maybe APPLE's research department has surfaced a trend that your company is too small to see. Perhaps there is a hot target market that APPLE can penetrate more aggressively. If your company's products/services are tied to what APPLE does, will this be something important to explore or a distraction?
What do you hope that the directors on APPLE's board are asking?
Directors of industry leading corporations have greater impact on all of our lives than most people realize.

ROCHESTER, New York -- October 17, 2016 -- Ambrosia Software, Inc. today announced the updated release of their award winning screen capture utility Snapz Pro X 2.6.1. This release fixes compatibility issues with OS X Sierra.
Snapz Pro X 2.6.1 features the following changes/enhancements:
Snapz Pro X 2.6.1 requires Mac OS X 10.8.0 or later, and is compatible with Mac OS X Yosemite, El Capitan and Sierra.
This updated version, which is free to all registered users of Snapz Pro X 2.x, may be downloaded here:
It isn't working for me at all on Sierra, It appears in my Applications folder but when I try to open it, nothing happens. The creation date on the version I have is Sat, Sep 3, 2016 at 1:19 PM, but the Press Release announcing Sierra compatibility is dated Oct 18, suggesting changes after Sep 3. Is there a later version?
The installer for 2.6.1 contains different release notes than noted above. It incorrectly states:
Snapz Pro X 2.6.1 features the following changes/enhancements:
-- Fixed the 'kext' to be signed and work properly with OS X Yosemite
-- Added multiple fixes for Yosemite support
-- Fixed the multiple screen support in Mavericks and Yosemite
-- Numerous bug fixes and enhancements
This may mislead/confuse users that downloaded it from 3rd party software update sites and are looking for Sierra specific fixes.
Running Mac OS Sierra 10.12 on MacPro 2013 Desktop. Upgraded from SnapzPr 2.6.0 to 2.6.1 and program failed. Had to reinstall 2.6.0. Any suggestions
Running OS 10.8.5 on a MacPro desktop. Was running SnapzPro 2.6.0, upgraded to 2.6.1 (hoping it might solve some problems I've encountered in SnapzPro lately). But version 2.6.1 didn't work, AT ALL. Have gone back to 2.6.0.
Any ideas why 2.6.1 wouldn't run under OS 10.8.5?

Teaching others about autism
BALTIMORE, Md. (CBS12) —
Imaging being worried every time you step out of your house that your child may end up in an encounter with police.
That is the reality for many families of children living with autism.
April is Autism Awareness Month.
Some first responders are being trained to make sure their interactions with people with autism remain safe.
Law enforcement officers at the Harford County Sheriff's Office are getting an important lesson.
The training is mandatory, aimed at giving officers the tools they need to deal with people with intellectually developmental disabilities because sometimes the outcome can be tragic.
"What we are trying to prevent is that because our deputies don't understand certain cues are perceived to be a threat when it's not a threat," said Lt. Mark Junkerman.
That's where Glenn comes in. Glenn is a 26-year-old man living with autism. He is a key player in the training, provided by Pathfinders for Autism.
"We teach a lot of de-escalation techniques so how they can slow things down and how they can help an individual that is in crisis, how they can help calm the individual down so that the entire situation is deescalated," said Shelly Allred.
Through Glenn, officers can see how someone with autism may respond differently.
Officers learn how the actions of someone with autism can easily be misinterpreted.
Instructor Drew Myers has a close connection with Glenn. He's his dad through adoption. Detective Janelle Myers is Drew's mother. For years, she dealt with the challenges of raising a child with autism as a single mom. Then she met Drew.
"I'm definitely very blessed," she said.
That's why Janelle sees a unique opportunity, and as a police officer and mother.
"I want to know that I am actively involved in the training of the officers because I know how I want them to act," said Myers.
It's a family committed to a cause.
One in 68 children has an autism spectrum disorder. The prevalence is even higher in boys. The challenges often become even greater as those children approach adulthood.

Design of a Condenser Lens System using a Thin Lens Combination
Lim, Sun-Jong ; Choi, Ji-Yeon ;
Journal of The Korean Society of Manufacturing Technology Engineers, volume 20, issue 5, 2011, Pages 517~522
Most of SEM is double condenser lens system. Two condenser lenses are required to provide the high demagnification ratios necessary for forming nanometer probes. The thin lens concept provides a highly useful basis for preliminary calculations in a broad range of situations. It is an easy way to understand the electron beam paths in column. Demagnification is easily calculated by this method. In this paper, we present design processes for condenser lens's demagnification by using thin lens combination model. Also, we verify the reliability of our design processes by comparing the modeled demagnification with these of corrected condenser lens.
Minimization of Pattern Size on Polycarbonate Material in V-grooving
Kim, Gi-Dae ;
Journal of The Korean Society of Manufacturing Technology Engineers, volume 20, issue 5, 2011, Pages 523~527
Polycarbonate (PC) polymer is an engineering plastic which has large tensile strength and impact resistance and is wildly used as functional parts like micro mold. Direct machining of PC materials produces lots of burrs and rough surface due to large ductility and weak heat resistance and hence it is very difficult to machine PC materials using cutting tool to make micro-parts. In this study, elliptical vibration cutting (EVC) or 2-dimensional vibration cutting was performed to minimize the size of micro V-grooves on PC material. From the experimental results, it was observed that as the cutting depth and pattern size become smaller, the better machining quality was obtained, which is attributed to the positive effect of EVC that is dependent on the ratio of vibration amplitude to cutting depth. As the height of V-groove becomes less than
, however, the machining quality becomes lower as the pattern size decreases.
Study on Structural Safety Analysis of EGR Valve
Han, Moon-Sik ; Cho, Jae-Ung ;
Journal of The Korean Society of Manufacturing Technology Engineers, volume 20, issue 5, 2011, Pages 528~534
This study analyzes thermal stress and durability fatigue on the modelling of EGR valve. In case of 10% opening at its inlet, the minimum temperature gets cool as 3 times as inlet temperature. The maximum equivalent stress becomes lowest as the value of
Pa and fatigue life becomes highest as 23.657 Cycle. But the minimum temperature gets cool as 2.2 times as inlet temperature in case of 50% opening at its inlet. The equivalent stress becomes higher and fatigue life becomes lower than in case of 10% opening. In case of 100% opening at its inlet, the minimum temperature gets cool as 0.2 times as inlet temperature. The equivalent stress becomes lower and fatigue life becomes higher than in case of 50% opening. Maximum equivalent stress and total deformation are shown at the closing of EGR valve by the pressure of inflow gas. The structural analysis result of this study can be effectively utilized with the design of EGR valve by investigating prevention and durability against its damage.
Effects of Mixing Chamber Shape on Cutting Performance in AWJ
Lee, Hyo-Ryeol ; Kwak, Yong-Kil ; Kim, Hwa-Young ; Ahn, Jung-Hwan ; Yeo, Myeong-Heon ;
Journal of The Korean Society of Manufacturing Technology Engineers, volume 20, issue 5, 2011, Pages 535~540
It is well known that abrasive waterjet (AWJ) was developed as a kind of high-density energy processing technologies. AWJ is used to obtain cutting quality of various materials such as metal, ceramics, glass and composite materials within a short manufacturing time because of the characteristics of heatless and noncontact processing. However, surface roughness and dimension error like round, burr, taper vary severely according to the processing conditions such as pressure, cutting speed, orifice diameter, stand off distance and abrasive flow rate. In this paper, the effect of the shape of mixing chamber on surface quality is studied. Three types of mixing chamber - round, parabolic, elliptical - are suggested and each performance is compared to that of cylindrical mixing chamber experimentally. From the result, is proved to be the optimal mixing chamber in the aspect of surface quality the parabolic one.
Numerical Study on Thermal Deformation of AC4C and AC7A Casting Material
Yoon, Hee-Sung ; Oh, Yool-Kwon ;
Journal of The Korean Society of Manufacturing Technology Engineers, volume 20, issue 5, 2011, Pages 541~546
This study was numerically investigated on thermal deformation of AC4C and AC7A aluminum alloy casting material for manufacturing the automobile tire mold. The metal casting device was used in order to manufacture the mold product of automobile tire at the actual industrial field. The temperature distribution and the cooling time of these materials were numerically calculated by finite element analysis. Thermal deformation with stress distribution was also calculated form the temperature distribution results. The thermal deformation was closely related to the temperature difference between the surface and inside of the casting. As shown by numerical analysis result, the thermal deformation of AC7A casting material became higher than AC4C casting material. In addition, the results of displacement and stress distributions appeared to be larger at the center parts of casting than on its sides because of the shrinkage caused by the cooling speed difference.
Optimal Flow Design of High-Efficiency, Cold-Flow, and Large-size Heat Pump Dryer
Park, Sang-Jun ; Lee, Young-Lim ;
Journal of The Korean Society of Manufacturing Technology Engineers, volume 20, issue 5, 2011, Pages 547~552
Drying process, corresponding to a final process in the area of food engineering, requires a lot of heat energy. Thus, the energy efficiency is very important for dryers. Since the energy efficiency of heat pump dryers is much higher compared to that of electric dryers or other types of dryers, most of large-capacity dryers are adopting heat pump. In this study, shapes, positions and number of air-circulating fans, guide vanes, air inlet, outlet and top separator were varied for optimization of the flow of a large-capacity heat pump dryer. In addition, fans were modelled with performance curves and porous media were assumed for foods and heat exchangers. The simulation results were applied to the 12-ton dryer and the velocity distributions were experimentally examined. Finally, uniform drying in time was successfully accomplished through frozen pepper experiment.
Safety Estimation of High Pressure Drop Control Valve for Offshore Structures
Kim, Jae-Woong ;

Journal of The Korean Society of Manufacturing Technology Engineers, volume 20, issue 5, 2011, Pages 559~563
Drop impact reliability assessment of solder joints on the flip chip is one of the critical issues for micro system packaging. Our previous researches have been showing that new solder ball compositions of Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu has better mechanical reliability than Sn-1.0Ag-0.5Cu. In this paper, dynamic reliability analysis using Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is carried out to assess the factors affecting flip chip in drop simulation. The design parameters are size and thickness of chip, and size, pitch and array of solder ball with composition of Sn1.0Ag0.5Cu. The board systems by JEDEC standard including 15 chips, solder balls and PCB are modeled with various design parameter combinations, and through these simulations, maximum yield stress and strain at each chip are shown at the solder balls. It is found that larger chip size, smaller chip array, smaller ball diameter, larger pitch, and larger chip thickness have bad effect on maximum yield stress and strain at solder ball of each chip.

The current establishment of city gas piping polyethylene (PE) tube used as bonding state or part of the health or safety of fusion is very important. A part of these fusion methods to determine the soundness of the short-term trials and long-term tests can be largely classified. Typical tests include short-term strength, tensile strength, impact strength, compressive strength, resiliency and compression. Polyethylene (PE) pipes installed in the domestic terms of overall penetration rate of 45% has been used. However, polyethylene (PE) pipes have reliability problems, and these occurs mostly in part by defective welding. Therefore, the test is necessary for safety. Non-destructive methods (ultrasonic testing) are difficult to be used. Therefore, Polypropylene copolymer (PP-C), polypropylene homopolymer (PP-H), and polyethylene (PE) pipe are used. Fusion of these materials is necessary in these field however, its technical, and basic research has not been studied well. In this research, short-term strength of welding parts, its tensile strength, hardness, fatigue, and microstructure have been analyzed to find the optimum process conditions to improve mechanical properties.

Jang, Ho-Su ; Park, Woo-Yeol ; Park, Dong-Sam ;
Journal of The Korean Society of Manufacturing Technology Engineers, volume 20, issue 5, 2011, Pages 570~575
Ultrasonic metal welder is consisted of power supply, transducer, booster, and horn. Precise designing is required since each parts' shape, length and mass can affect driving frequency and vibration mode. This paper analyzed Cu sheet deposition characteristics using ultrasonic metal welder and tension tester. A horn suitable for 40,000Hz was attached to the ultrasonic metal welder in order to weld Cu plates. The Cu sheet welding was done with different amplitude, pressure, and welding time, and its maximum tension was measured with tension tester. Maximum tension of 153.87N was obtained when the pressure was 2.0bar, amplitude was 80%, and welding time was 0.30s. Therefore, excessive welding condition negatively influences maximum tension measurement result.

Kwon, Hyuk-Hong ; Song, Seung-Eun ; Kim, Oh-Seung ;
Journal of The Korean Society of Manufacturing Technology Engineers, volume 20, issue 5, 2011, Pages 582~588
This study was aimed at the design of the dies for the unified shaft joint using the computer simulation to shorten the period of production, on the basis of the process planning which was designed by the field experts. In the computer simulation, 'Deform-3d' and 'Eesy-DieOpt' have been used, which are the commercial process analysis and die design program. Through the process analysis, we could know the propriety of the forming process, the inner pressure of the die and the suitable fitting pressure between the insert and the sleeve which was not showing any positive tangential stresses in the insert. Through the simulation of die design, we could know the number of the stress ring, the diameter ratios, the stresses of the die, the shrink fitting tolerance and temperature in the condition of the already determined maximum outer die diameter of the multi-stage former. The validity of the die design using the computer simulation was analyzed by the experiments and the results were satisfactory. As the results of this study, the new and easy die design system for multi-forging has been developed.
Optimal Tuning of a Ballscrew Driven Biaxial Servo System
Shin, Dong-Soo ; Chung, Sung-Chong ;
Journal of The Korean Society of Manufacturing Technology Engineers, volume 20, issue 5, 2011, Pages 589~597
In this paper, optimal tuning of a cross-coupled controller linked with the feedforward controller and the disturbance observer is studied to improve contouring and tracking accuracy as well as robustness against disturbance. Previously developed integrated design and optimal tuning methods are applied for developing the robust tuning method. Strict mathematical modeling of the multivariable system is formulated as a state-space equation. Identification processes of the servomechanism are conducted for mechanical servo models. An optimal tuning problem to minimize both the contour error and settling time is formulated as a nonlinear constrained optimization problem including the relevant controller parameters of the servo control system. Constraints such as relative stability, robust stability and overshoot, etc. are considered for the optimization. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed optimal tuning procedure, linear and circular motion experiments are performed on the xy-table. Experimental results confirm the control performance and robustness despite the variation of parameters of the mechanical subsystems.

Jang, Sung-Min ; Maeng, Joo-Sung ; An, Sang-Joon ;
Journal of The Korean Society of Manufacturing Technology Engineers, volume 20, issue 5, 2011, Pages 605~611
In this study, based on previous studies, the thrust generated by using flapping tandem wings is examined. We studied on the relationship between the parameters for characterizing oscillatory tandem wings (namely, the Strouhal number and Reynolds number) for thrust generation in micro flow regime. At each Reynolds number, Strouhal number, heaving amplitude, distance between tandem wings, and phase difference are varied and the flapping motions of tandem mode are calculated to find the optimum conditions for generating thrust. As a result, comparing with a single flapping mode, we found that the minimum Strouhal number for generating thrust is shifted down up to approximately 25% when the tandem flapping mode is applied.

Sa, Jong-Sung ; Kang, Tea-Won ;
Journal of The Korean Society of Manufacturing Technology Engineers, volume 20, issue 5, 2011, Pages 612~617
The comfort and quietness of vehicle has been improved greatly due to the development of technology in automobile industry. Some of noise reductions, for example, are driven by the improvement in the power-train system. Due to better in all performance, it is required to reduce more noise in automobile components. One of them is related to the fuel pump system including a pump and a tank. Therefore, this study is focused on investigating the characteristics of fuel pump and fuel tank first, and then comparing the data before and after installation of fuel pump system in a testing vehicle. Additionally, the measured data will be analyzed to identify the problems and provide knowledge to reduce the level of noise and vibration in fuel pump system.

Kim, Dee-Wan ; Park, Chan-Hee ; Kim, Keun-Sik ; Kim, Cheol-Sang ;
Journal of The Korean Society of Manufacturing Technology Engineers, volume 20, issue 5, 2011, Pages 623~631
Light emitting diodes (LEDs) which can produce uniform luminescence need a very difficult and complex procedure because LEDs have strong and straight optical property. One of the major parameters for LED production is the determination of the viewing angle. However, in the present, there is still no available production technology to measure LED viewing angle and optical property. In this study, we developed a five-side LED viewing angle and optical property measurement system, having a source meter that uses a high speed switching photo relay instead of a mercury relay. This new measurement system can measure the viewing angle at a very high accuracy of
. This new technology presents a great potential for fast and reliable LED mass production, which can significantly cut down the cost from savings in production time.

Oh, Joo-Young ; Yun, Ung-Kwon ; Park, Young-Jun ; Lee, Geun-Ho ; Song, Chang-Seop ;
Journal of The Korean Society of Manufacturing Technology Engineers, volume 20, issue 5, 2011, Pages 639~645
Wheel-loader is a construction vehicle for uploading soil or sand into truck and transportation of materials, which requires large driving power and high rotational speed. To improve the working efficiency, the operator has to shift gears and control levers for bucket & boom simultaneously. Therefore, the automatic transmission has been introduced to enhance operator's convenience and enable effective operation. To develop the automatic transmission for the wheel-loader, technologies such as gears and a clutch-pack design and shift algorithm are required for improvement of shift quality. In this paper, the shift algorithm for the wheel-loader was developed and its shift pattern was analyzed. As the shift control is affected by the pressure profile for the clutch control, the shift quality depending on the pressure profile has been evaluated using experiment and simulation model analysis.

Hwang, Hyun-Tae ; Choi, Hung-Won ; Kim, Jong-Do ;
Journal of The Korean Society of Manufacturing Technology Engineers, volume 20, issue 5, 2011, Pages 646~652
Recently, lots of automobile part manufacturers try to increase glass fiber content of their plastic parts to improve strength and impact-resistance. For this reason, injection mold requires high hardness and wear-resistant. Laser surface treatment is used to improve characteristics of wear and to enhance the fatigue resistance for injection mold. In this paper, high carbon steel (HP4MA) for injection mold material was heat-treated to harden surface by using high power diode laser (HPDL). To find the process parameters for laser surface treatment of HP4MA, many experiments are carried out as changing the parameters of surface temperature and travel speed of laser. From the results of the experiments, it has been shown that the maximum average hardness is approximately 711~739 Hv when the temperature and the travel of laser are
and 2 mm/sec.

Kim, Yong-Seok ; Jeong, Chan-Se ; Yang, Soon-Young ;
Journal of The Korean Society of Manufacturing Technology Engineers, volume 20, issue 5, 2011, Pages 653~658
In general, the purpose of packaging fasteners is a series of management activities to maintain the condition at the time of production until they get delivered to the end user. An automatic packing system for fasteners is consisted of bucket conveyor, slide feeder, vision inspection system, box-magazine conveyor system and automatic packing machine. Also, the automatic packing machine is consisted of six modules including charging device, clamping/opening device, sealing/cutting device, feeding/air-shower device, supplying/adjusting device and device frame, etc. In this paper, we proposed an automatic packing mechanism of the one station concept for packing work of fastener objects where the continuous batch work is performed in a finite space. The proposed one-station packing mechanism has been optimized through mechanical, dynamical, structural and fluid analyses. And it had been manufactured as the prototype of automatic packing machine. The field test for validation of performance was performed directly at the production line of bolt and screw. In the field test, this packing machine showed an efficiency of about 4.5 times the manual operation. It also showed 30% reduction in the consumption of packing materials compared to the manual operation. This automatic packing machine for fastener objects will be commercialized soon.
A Study on the Improvement of Double Injection-molding Keypad Process
Hong, Min-Sung ; Lee, Ji-Hoon ; Shin, Soo-Hyun ;
Journal of The Korean Society of Manufacturing Technology Engineers, volume 20, issue 5, 2011, Pages 659~665
Recently, the plastic resin such as PC, ABS are widely used in IT market. Especially, in most cases the keypads mounted on the mobile phone are the dual-injection-plated type. Environmental regulation is based on the quality of injection-molded products and the minimum process steps are required to avoid the plating defects. Various parameters to produce the injection-molded plastic products make it difficult to obtain the desired stability. However, the past experience and the use of CAE analysis make it possible to predict the problems occurred in injection molding process. Especially, the problems of the weld lines such as runner balancing, bending, deformation and forming defects can be solved systematically and minimized by CAE analysis. Through this study, the non-uniform volumetric shrinkage and the difference in temperature distribution induce the deformation and the high value of stress causes the problems such as crack.
Development of Automatic Precision Inspection System for Defect Detection of Photovoltaic Wafer
Baik, Seung-Yeb ;
Journal of The Korean Society of Manufacturing Technology Engineers, volume 20, issue 5, 2011, Pages 666~672
In this paper, we describes the development of automatic inspection system for detecting the defects on photovoltaic wafer by using machine vision. Until now, The defect inspection process was manually performed by operators. So these processes caused the produce of poorly-made articles and inaccuracy results. To improve the inspection accuracy, the inspection system is not only configured, but the image processing algorithm is also developed. The inspection system includes dimensional verification and pattern matching which compares a 2-D image of an object to a pattern image the method proves to be computationally efficient and accurate for real time application and we confirmed the applicability of the proposed method though the experience in a complex environment.

Strengthening te reo ake o Ngati Porou me ona tikanga; supporting the cultural and social development of Ngati Porou marae and hapu; identifying education and training pathways are just a few of the many activities that Toitu Ngati Porou is responsible for.
Toitu Ngati Porou was established by TRONPnui as a Charitable Trust in June 2013. The purpose of Toitu Ngati Porou is to carry out the cultural development activities of TRONPnui for the sole benefit and purpose of nga uri o nga whanau/hapu o Ngāti Porou mai i Potikirua ki te Toka a Taiau.
With such a wide and varied port-folio (which also includes supporting social, archival and environmental activities) the first three years of Toitu Ngati Porou's operation has mainly been concentrated on four key priorities which include Marae Development, Ngati Porou Reo Revitalisation, Education and the Ngati Porou Outcomes Measurement Framework. This priority setting was a consequence of both informal and formal engagements that Toitu had undertaken with Ngati Porou members living at home and outside the rohe.
The cultural development activities of Toitu Ngati Porou are predominantly funded by a proportion of the annual dividend that Ngati Porou Holding Company distributes to TRONPnui. In the last financial year Toitu received a dividend of $1.5 million from TRONPnui.
As the dividend from TRONPnui varies from year to year, Toitu's capacity to invest in a range of cultural activities has been restricted therefore, a major focus has been on identifying alternative revenue streams from external co-investors to generate an additional $2's or $3's for every $1 received from TRONPnui. Projects such as Nati Power, Nati Insure and Wai Whai Nati are the direct result of thinking outside the box to ensure the aspirations of the entity can grow and flourish.
The Trust Deed for Toitu Ngati Porou states that its principle objective is to "serve the needs of Ngati Porou now and in the future". The investments Toitu Ngati Porou makes today in supporting our cultural identity, values and heritage will help ensure future generations will also be rewarded
To learn more about Toitu Ngati Porou and their initiatives read the Key Facts below go to http://www.ngatiporou.com/nati-biz/who-we-are/our-governance/toitu-ngati-porou
Toitu Ngati Porou also invite Ngati Porou whanau and hapu members to attend two upcoming open forum sessions.The open forums provide an opportunity for whanau to be informed about Toitu's activities and ask the board any patai.
Toitu Ngati Porou Community Open Forum
Inaugural Board Members:
- Amohaere Houkamau (Chairperson)
- Barry Soutar (Deputy Chair)
- Amos Forrester
- Lillian Baldwin
- Rei Kohere
- Tina Porou
- Wiki Gilvray
Three board members (Rei, Lilian and Barry) were appointed as TRONPnui board representatives and through a formal application process the four remaining members were appointed as Community representatives by the TRONPnui Board. From the 1st September, 2016 Tina Porou and Barry Soutar will retire as Trustees.
Term of Office: Four years which includes the establishment term of 9 months (14 June 2013 – 31 March 2014) and subsequent term of 3 years (1 April 2014 – 31 March 2017).
Meeting Schedule: The Toitu Ngati Porou board meet bi-monthly. Alternate meetings are held on marae across the rohe to enable an open forum session as part of the board hui. This provides the opportunity for whanau and hapu members to come along and engage with Toitu board members about the kaupapa they are responsible for.
Key Facts About Toitu Ngati Porou's Top Four Priorities
Marae Development:
- $5.2m for Ngati Porou Marae Development Grants over a 5 year period (June 2012–June 2017).The 48 Ngati Porou Marae (listed in the Deed of Settlement) have the opportunity to apply for $100k each spread over the five years. In addition $10k is available to each marae as a one off Capital grant. Funding rounds are conducted four times a year in March, June, September and December. Marae are able to draw down their full $100k, but to do so they must have support from other marae that are willing to forgo their funding entitlement for that year. Marae that have drawn down their full 100k entitlement are Pakirikiri, Tikapa Te Horo and Rongohaere. To date $2.54 million in Marae grants and $380k in Capital grants have been invested in Ngati Porou marae.
- A Marae Kaitakawaenga is employed to support Ngati Porou marae with their development needs by providing advice, information and facilitation services. This role is undertaken by Leeanne Morice who is based at the Ruatoria office (inside this edition of Nati Link there is a profile about Leeanne and her mahi).
- Nati Insure, Wai Whai Nati and Nati Power are three initiatives that have resulted from Toitu Ngati Porou partnering with external co-investors.
- Nati Insure is a partnership with Aon Insurance which offers collective marae insurance where marae can save between 30%–50% (and in some cases more) on their annual insurance premiums, and/or substantially increase their insurance cover. As of June 30, 2016, twenty-four marae have joined the marae insurance collective, with 3 of those marae being previously uninsured.
- The Wai Whai Nati scheme (supported by the Nati 2Degrees Association fund) has enabled 43 marae to now have access to internet connectivity, at no cost to the marae. Monthly internet charges have in the interim been covered by TRONPnui.
- The Nati Power scheme is an initiative piloted with Contact Energy in 2014. For every Contact Energy customer who joined Nati Power, Contact donated $50 to Ngati Porou marae to cover their annual electricity or gas bills. It is anticipated that the scheme will roll out again by the end of 2016 and the incentive payment raised to between $100 and $200. This could potentially generate between $250,000–$500,000 for our marae if at least 2500 customers sign up,
Te Reo Ake o Ngati Porou Strategy:
- In 2015, a review of reo strategies previously developed by TRONPnui and its predecessor TRONP was conducted by Dr Wayne Ngata. The best components were identified, and along with his own knowledge and expertise of current reo acquisition and revitalisation strategies, Dr Ngata developed a refreshed Ngati Porou Reo Strategy.
- Toitu presented the Ngati Porou Reo Strategy to TRONPnui for approval in May 2015 which triggered an approach to the Ngati Porou Holding Company for an extraordinary distribution dividend. $500k was subsequently approved and committed for Ngati Porou Reo revitalisation.
- An action plan has recently been developed to implement the first two years of the strategy (to find out more about the Reo Strategy and the Action plan look out for new uploaded information on www.ngatiporou.com).
Ngati Porou Education Strategy:
- Over the next year a Ngati Porou Matauranga / Education Strategy will be developed. This strategy will draw from previously developed Ngati Porou educations strategies, Hapu Matauranga strategies and best practice models.
Ngati Porou Outcomes Measurement Framework:
Toitu is advancing the implementation of the Ngati Porou Outcomes Measurement Framework, which was developed by TRONP in 2007–08.
- This framework will enable TRONPnui to set specific targets across all their development priorities and business units, populate each of the businesses with relevant data that will assist and inform planning and growth projections, and then be in a position to track and report on performance across the group. Toitu has progressed, on behalf of TRONPnui, a data trial with Statistics New Zealand and a catalyst project with the NZ Data Futures Partnership.
