 ABSTRACT
The sheet metal cutting process is a main part of the all industries. Normally the
sheet metal cutting machine is manually hand operated one for medium and
small scale industries. In our project is “PNEUMATIC AUTO FEED SHEET
METAL CUTTING MACHINE”.

Automation in the modern world is inevitable. Any automatic machine aimed

at the economical use of man, machine, and material worth the most. In our
project is solenoid valve is used for automation.

The sheet metal cutting machine works with the help of pneumatic double acting
cylinder. The piston is connected to the moving cutting tool. It is used to cut the
small size of sheet metal. The machine is portable in size, so easy transportable.
