| description |
In the current market, the acrylic cutter and bending
machine is mostly available in big size and equipped with
advanced system processes for large industrial application. This is
undesirable since the cost of the machine can be quite expensive
for a small industry. This paper proposed the development of a
low-cost semi-automatic acrylic cutter and bending machine to
cater to the small industry requirement. The design methodology
has been accomplished using engineering design method to
propose a suitable design semi-automatic acrylic cutter and
bending machine based on commercially available design. A 3D
representation of the machine was generated with the help of
Autodesk Inventor 2019 to visualize all the details concerning the
semi-automatic acrylic cutter and bending machine. The
semi-automatic acrylic cutter and bending machine are designed
for cutting, bending, and finishing acrylic sheet in simple manual
operation. The machine was fabricated using industrial material
specifications such as plywood and hollow steel to ensure the
effectiveness of semi-automatic acrylic cutter and bending
machine. This semi-automatic acrylic cutter and the bending
machine was also equipped with a table that can be adjusted to
different heights. The performance of the machine was tested by
cutting and bending different thicknesses of the acrylic sheet and
polishing of the acrylic sheet. The results found that the
semi-automatic acrylic cutter and bending machine is capable of
handling the thickness of the acrylic sheet up until 5 mm in a
single operation. The developed machine was able to cut the
acrylic sheet up to 5 mm thickness and bend from 0 to 180 degrees.
Thus, this machine could provide a highly ergonomic solution
that responds to the needs of small industrial applications. |
