CHAPTOR ONE: INTRODUCTION
1.1Background
Plasma cutting grew out of plasma welding in the
1960s, and emerged as a very productive way to cut sheet
metal and plate in the 1980s.[2] It had the advantages
over traditional "metal against metal" cutting of producing
no metal chips, giving accurate cuts, and producing a
cleaner edge than oxy-fuel cutting. Early plasma cutters
were large, somewhat slow and expensive and, therefore,
tended to be dedicated to repeating cutting patterns in a
"mass production" mode.
As with other machine tools, CNC (computer
numerical control) technology was applied to plasma
cutting machines in the late 1980s into the 1990s,
giving plasma cutting machines greater flexibility to cut
diverse shapes "on demand" based on a set of
instructions that were programmed into the machine's
numerical control.[3] These CNC plasma cutting
machines were, however, generally limited to cutting
patterns and parts in flat sheets of steel, using only
two axes of motion (referred to as X Y cutting).
1.2 Statement of the problem

At present time plasma cutter tubing notcher problems clearly have seen in
our country in many industries due to extremely high cost to buy plasma cutter
tubing notcher. In addition in DEC students bother to plasma cutter tubing
notcher and pipes cutter in their training processes in practically after their
theoretical class and for some works that required in DEC,this is due to lack
of this plasma cutter tubing notcher. Now a day’s plasma cutter tubing notcher
is very costly to buy for above explained problem b/c of it needs so many tools
and accessories. For example in many industry not available. The cost very
high. The one plasma cutter tubing notcher price is 536,242.01 in birr
including vat, this machine needs power to only cutter. This machine needs to
electrical motor and not portable one to another place for mass production.
Again it needs to clean continuously and maintenance.
1.3 OBJECTIVES

1.3.1 General objectives

The general objective of this Project is to design & manufacturing


plasma cutter tubing notcher which should be capable of
performing different profile of notch.

1.3.2 Specific objective

To specify objectives of this project are: -

 To develop the technical data related to manufacturing of


plasma cutter tubing notcher machine.

 Develop different design concept.


 To perform detail analysis of plasma cutter tubing notcher
parts.

 To prepar details and assembly drawing using CAD.

 To prepared a manufacturing processes planes for a specific


part.

 To fabricate using the available manufacturing facilities.


1.4METHODOLOGY
 To achieve the objective, a detailed review of published literatures as
well as all those available data and physical component form in the
industries are crucial. Some of these items are collected. So the study
targets the objectives through the following ways or approach:

 Literature review from international journal, books and conference


papers and materials as well as technical input from the expected relate
to the project is reviewed.

 Data collection from manual or catalogues, industry visit and interviews.

 Working product data detail assessment and analysis as per standard


procedure.
 Working manufacturing process plan, fabrication some of parts
and assembly.

 Applying important manufacturing procedure and calculations

 Material selection.

 Data collecting, analyzing and interpreting before coming to the


real work.

 Conclusion and recommendation.


1.5 SCOPE OF THE STUDY

The scope of study is limited to the design of plasma cutter


tubing notcher and fabricating of some parts of this plasma cutter
tubing notcher using CAD or CATIA software. After that to
prepare a manufacturing processes plan and fabricate single
product.
