Design and Development of 4-Way Hacksaw Machine with Shaper Attachment

Many industrial application where round bar or square bar are required to be operated on a different machine to make machine components such as the shaft, bolts, screws etc. and also in wooden industries to cut the wooden piece for a different domestic application. This needs more and more number of pieces to be cut for mass production of the components. To achieve this goal we design and develop 4-way hacksaw machine which is able to cut 4 pieces (may be of same or different materials) simultaneously with a very less time consumption. Also, this model deals with modification and development of shaper machine. In conventional shaping machine, the cutting action is performed but the tool only in forward direction and return stroke is idle. This attachment is developed for to get cutting in return stroke as well as cutting in forward stroke. This attachment is also increased productivity and help in many industries due to its reliability, efficiency, compact in size and compatibility. So, the objective of this project is to save manpower and time for cutting metal and shaping in order to achieve high productivity.
