 ABSTRACT

This project is on the design and construction of an automatic power hacksaw machine for
cutting of metal to different size and length with the help of hacksaw. The objective of this
project is to save man power and time in cutting metals in order to achieve high productivity. It
is a cutting machine with teeth on its blade used specially for cutting metals. The power to the
hacksaw is provided by the motors. The motor drives the pulley-1 connected to the rotor of the
motor. The pulley -1 to the flywheel-1 by belt drive. The flywheel -1 is coupled to the one end
of shaft-1 and the other end of shaft -1 is coupled to the pulley-2. Again pulley -2 is connected
to the flywheel -2 by belt drive. Flywheel-2 is coupled to the one end of shaft -2 and the other
end of shaft-2 the crank which is turn is connected to the connecting rod is connected to the
vertical arm connected to the horizontal arm. Rotary motion of the shaft is converted into
reciprocating motion of the hacksaw with the help of shaft and pulley. Work piece of desired
length be cut by feeding it to hacksaw by holding it into bench vice. The various component of
the machine were designed and constructed. Test was carried out on the machine using different
metals.
