    The document summarizes the key aspects of a machine tool called a shaper. It describes the working principle of how a shaper cuts metal by holding a single point cutting tool that reciprocates over the workpiece during the cutting stroke. It provides specifications of the machine including its stroke length, table size, tool shank size, ram speeds, motor capacity, and model/make. It outlines the advantages of low tooling costs and simple setup/transitions and the disadvantages of being a slow machine and not able to achieve high cutting speeds due to its reciprocating motion.

    A REPORT ON
    MACHINE TOOL:
    SHAPER

    A REPORT ON MACHINE TOOL: SHAPER
    AIM: To study the working principle, specifications, advantages and disadvantages of the
    shaper.
    WORKING PRINCIPLE:
     The single point cutting tool is held in ram by a shaper machine, and the workpiece is
    positioned above the table.
     Metal is cut during the forward stroke, known as a cutting stroke, when the ram
    holding the tool reciprocates over the workpiece.
     An idle stroke is one in which no metal is cut during the return stroke.
     At the conclusion of the cutting stroke, the feed is given.
     In most cases, the cutting stroke is executed slowly, while the idle stroke is executed
    quickly with the aid of a quick return mechanism.
    Quick Return Mechanism:
    The Slider moves quickly and removes the material from the workpiece during the forward
    stroke.
    However, the Slider moves more quickly during the return stroke than during the forward
    stroke, which means A return stroke is a quick return that occurs more quickly.

    FIGURE: MACHINE TOOL SHAPER


    SHAPING MACHINE SPECIFICATIONS:
    Stroke length 18’’

    Working surface of the table 407mm x 292mm

    Maximum size of the tool shank 32mm x 16mm

    Range of ram speeds stroke per minute 17,25,50,75

    Motor capacity 1.5kW

    Speed 960 rpm

    Model SM 18’’

    Make SAGAR

    ADVANTAGES:
     The cost of the single point tool, or low tooling cost, is cheap.
     It has a distinct ending point for the cutting stroke.
     The shaper machinery can readily hold the work.
     The setup is quick and simple, and it is also simple to transition from one operation to
    another.
    DISADVANTAGES:
     It is a slow machine by nature because a single point cutting tool needs several strokes
    to finish a job due to its straight-line forward and backward strokes.
     Due to the large inertia force created by the motion of the machine's units and
    components, cutting speeds are typically not particularly high for reciprocating
    motion.
    CONCLUSION:
    The working principle, advantages and disadvantages and specifications of the shaper has
    been studied
