This document summarizes the design and manufacturing of an auto-feed hydraulic cutting machine. The machine was designed to be low-cost and suitable for small-scale industries to automate the process of cutting thick sheet metal. Key aspects discussed include identifying requirements through market surveys of industries, designing and building the hydraulic and feeding systems, addressing challenges encountered during manufacturing and testing like component leakage, and concluding that the final machine eliminated labor, reduced human effort, and increased production rates.
