INTRODUCTION
OR
The Machine monitoring system or Bar Feeding mechanism is a metal cutting machine
tool designed to feed the metal. The machine is exclusively intended for mass production
and they represent fasten and more efficient way to feed a metal.
Machine monitoring system or Automatic Bar feeding mechanism consists of three major
blocks. They are
• Clamping Mechanism
• IR sensor Unit
There are numerous types of cutting machines in Engineering field, which are used to
fulfill the requirements. IR sensor unit is used to determine the bar dimension to be
cutted. We are interested to introduce pneumatic system in bar clamping machine.
Automatic bar-feeding apparatus having a pusher rod movable to and from a bar machine
such as an automatic lathe, for feeding a bar material thereto, the pushing rod being
driven by a motor at the initial stage of the feeding stroke and then by gravitational drive
through the rest of the stroke, including the machining operation. Means are provided to
prevent the bar material from being accelerated by the gravitational drive to strike against
parts of the bar machine. The motor drive further functions, in cooperation with a
clamping mechanism, to engage the bar material with the pusher rod at the beginning of
the feeding stroke, and also to disengage the scrap end of the machined bar from the
pusher rod at the end of its return stroke.

DESCRIPTION
GEARS:
A gear or cogwheel is a rotating machine part having cut teeth, or cogs, which mesh with
another toothed part to transmit torque. Geared devices can change the speed, torque, and
direction of a power source. Gears almost always produce a change in torque, creating a
mechanical advantage, through their gear ratio, and thus may be considered a simple
machine. The teeth on the two meshing gears all have the same shape.[1] Two or more
meshing gears, working in a sequence, are called a gear train or a transmission. A gear
can mesh with a linear toothed part, called a rack, thereby producing translation instead
of rotation.
The gears in a transmission are analogous to the wheels in a crossed belt pulley system.
An advantage of gears is that the teeth of a gear prevent slippage.
When two gears mesh, if one gear is bigger than the other, a mechanical advantage is
produced, with the rotational speeds, and the torques, of the two gears differing in
proportion to their diameters.
SPUR GEARS:
Spur gears or straight-cut gears are the simplest type of gear. They consist of a cylinder
or disk with teeth projecting radially. Though the teeth are not straight-sided (but usually
of special form to achieve a constant drive ratio, mainly involute but less commonly
cycloidal), the edge of each tooth is straight and aligned parallel to the axis of rotation.
These gears mesh together correctly only if fitted to parallel shafts.
14 | P a g e
RACK & PINION MECHANISM
A rack and pinion is a type of linear actuator that comprises a pair of gears which convert
rotational motion into linear motion. A circular gear called "the pinion" engages teeth on
a linear "gear" bar called "the rack"; rotational motion applied to the pinion causes the
rack to move relative to the pinion, thereby translating the rotational motion of the pinion
into linear motion.
For example, in a rack railway, the rotation of a pinion mounted on a locomotive or a
railcar engages a rack between the rails and forces a train up a steep slope.
For every pair of conjugate involute profile, there is a basic rack. This basic rack is the
profile of the conjugate gear of infinite pitch radius (i.e. a toothed straight edge).
A generating rack is a rack outline used to indicate tooth details and dimensions for the
design of a generating tool, such as a hob or a gear shaper cutter.
15 | P a g e
Rack and pinion combinations are often used as part of a simple linear actuator, where
the rotation of a shaft powered by hand or by a motor is converted to linear motion.
The rack carries the full load of the actuator directly and so the driving pinion is usually
small, so that the gear ratio reduces the torque required. This force, thus torque, may still
be substantial and so it is common for there to be a reduction gear immediately before
this by either a gear or worm gear reduction. Rack gears have a higher ratio, thus require
a greater driving torque, than screw actuators.

PVC PIPE:
Plastic pipework is used for the conveyance of drinking water, waste water, chemicals,
heating fluid and cooling fluids, foodstuffs, ultra-pure liquids, slurries, gases, compressed
air and vacuum system applications.
Polyvinyl Chloride or PVC is a thermoplastic material derived from common salt and
fossil fuels. The pipe material has the longest track record of all plastic materials. The
first PVC pipes were made in the 1930s. During the 1950s, they were used to replace
corroded metal pipes and thus bring fresh drinking water to a growing urban population.
Further pressure and non-pressure applications in the field of sewers, soil and waste, gas
(low pressure) and cable protection soon followed. The material's contribution to public
health, hygiene and well-being has therefore been significant.
Based on the standard PVC material, three other variants are in use.
Another variant called OPVC represents an important landmark in the history of plastic
pipe technology. This molecular-oriented bi-axial high performance version combines
very high strength with extra impact resistance.
A ductile variant is the MPVC, PVC modified with acrylics or chlorinated PE. This very
ductile material with high fracture resistance is used in high demanding applications
where resistance against cracking and stress corrosion is important. In several studies the
long track record of PVC pipes has been investigated. Recent investigations at the
German KRV and the Dutch TNO have confirmed that PVC water pressure pipes, when
installed correctly have a useful life span of over 100 years.

HAND GRINDER
An angle grinder, also known as a side grinder or disc grinder, is a handheld power tool
used for cutting, grinding and polishing.
Angle grinders can be powered by an electric motor, petrol engine or compressed air. The
motor drives a geared head at a right-angle on which is mounted an abrasive disc or a
thinner cut-off disc, either of which can be replaced when worn. Angle grinders typically
have an adjustable guard and a side-handle for two-handed operation. Certain angle
grinders, depending on their speed range, can be used as sanders, employing a sanding
disc with a backing pad or disc. The backing system is typically made of hard plastic,
phenolic resin, or medium-hard rubber depending on the amount of flexibility desired.

CUTTING WHEEL
A disc cutter is a specialised, often hand-held, power tool used for cutting hard materials,
for example ceramic tile. This tool is very similar to an angle grinder, with main
difference being cutting disc itself (circular diamond blade for disc cutter vs. abrasive
grinding wheel for angle grinder).

VISE:
DC MOTOR:
A DC motor is any of a class of electrical machines that converts direct current electrical
power into mechanical power. The most common types rely on the forces produced by
magnetic fields. Nearly all types of DC motors have some internal mechanism, either
electromechanical or electronic, to periodically change the direction of current flow in
part of the motor. Most types produce rotary motion; a linear motor directly produces
force and motion in a straight line.
DC motors were the first type widely used, since they could be powered from existing
direct-current lighting power distribution systems. A DC motor's speed can be controlled
over a wide range, using either a variable supply voltage or by changing the strength of
current in its field windings. Small DC motors are used in tools, toys, and appliances. The
universal motor can operate on direct current but is a lightweight motor used for portable
21 | P a g e
power tools and appliances. Larger DC motors are used in propulsion of electric vehicles,
elevator and hoists, or in drives for steel rolling mills. The advent of power electronics
has made replacement of DC motors with AC motors possible in many applications.
CONNECTING WIRES:
A wire is a single, usually cylindrical, flexible strand or rod of metal. Wires are used to
bear mechanical loads or electricity and telecommunications signals. Wire is commonly
formed by drawing the metal through a hole in a die or draw plate. Wire gauges come in
various standard sizes, as expressed in terms of a gauge number. The term wire is also
used more loosely to refer to a bundle of such strands, as in 'multistranded wire', which is
more correctly termed a wire rope in mechanics, or a cable in electricity.
Wire comes in solid core, stranded, or braided forms. Although usually circular in cross-
section, wire can be made in square, hexagonal, flattened rectangular, or other cross-
sections, either for decorative purposes, or for technical purposes such as high-efficiency
22 | P a g e
voice coils in loudspeakers. Edge-wound[1] coil springs, such as the Slinky toy, are made
of special flattened wire.
