Automated Double Hacksaw Machine

Abstract

In the scenario, for cutting pipes, more human effort is required and the time consumption is more. So, in order to minimize the time and labour, in this work, efforts are made to design and fabricate a two-way multi-hacksaw cutting machine. The main objective of the work is to design an efficient two-way multi-hacksaw cutting machine which suits the industrial applications like cutting thin metal bars, wood, PVC pipes, etc. The machine is designed and fabricated using the principle of slider-crank mechanism, where the slider is replaced with hacksaw.
