Hacksaw is a widely used cutting machine in all type of manufacturing industry. Hacksaws are used for fast and efficient cutting of metal, wooden, plastic rods and pipes as per desired dimensions. Well manually operating a hacksaw is a quite strenuous and tiring process. So here we propose a fully automated motorized hacksaw that has the capability to automatically operate the cutting mechanism without any manual interference once set in the process. The system uses a motor to drive the hacksaw shaft which is connected to a connecting rod

The connecting rod is now screwed to the cutting frame in such a way so as to achieve the desired back and forth motion from the motor. The cutting frame is designed in a way to easily attach the saw blade to it. Now we use a chain sprocket arrangement in order to transfer the motor strength to the shaft. The other end of machine holds a holder that is used to hold the cutting part in place, so as to achieve desired cutting results. We use a high torque motor in order to achieve this cutting motion since the cutting process delivers a lot of resistance. We then build a supporting metal frame to support and hold the entire machine together.
Components:
Cutting Frame
Saw Frame
Saw Blade
Wise
Chain
Sprockets
Mounts and Joints
Supporting Frame
High Torque DC Motor
Shaf
Connecting Rod
Cutting Rods
Project Implementation:
Firstly attach the high torque motor into the base plate of the machine using the frame, mounts and joints.Then attach the one more frame just next to the motor attached frame such a way a chain drive can be connected between two frame for transferring the motor power to the hacksaw frame. The cutting frame is designed in a way to easily attach the saw blade to it. Now we use a chain sprocket arrangement in order to transfer the motor strength to the shaft. The other end of machine holds a holder that is used to hold the cutting part in place, so as to achieve desired cutting results
