Completing a task is never a one-man effort. It is always a result of

invaluable contribution of a number of individuals in a direct or indirect
manner.
The successful culmination of our efforts reminds us of our debtless
towards our venerated guide Prof. G.M.DHOTE SIR for his valuable
guidance and thought provoking encouragement throughout the project.
He has given his valuable advice in the hour of need and provided the
requisite facilities for the completion of the project work. We are also
grateful to Prof. N.H.CHAHANDE SIR Program Co-coordinator of
Y.C.M.O.U study center S.D.M.P Nagpur, for their valuable advises and
facilities provided by them, which paved the way of successful
completion of this project.
We take this opportunity to express our sincere thanks to Prof.
G.M.DHOTE SIR for providing us with required laboratory facilities and
cooperation offered to us from time to time.
Last but not least we salute with regard and esteem to all our
friends and colleagues who directly and indirectly helped us to complete
our project successfully.

The project is all about how the problem is being faced and is
being eliminated by the combined efforts and study of science and
mechanical engineering.
The project is made in the Material Testing Laboratory, Ordnance
Factory Ambajhari Nagpur. We projectees come to the conclusion of
making this project because while testing and doing the Micro Analysis
(Metallography Testing) of the RDE 40 aluminum plate there is a
problem i.e. for the Micro Analysis during the sample preparation we
found that cutting is a major problem by drilling machine manually. To
eliminate this problem we make a comprehensive study of the machines,
drills, the Aluminum material RDE 40 and the Metallography Process.
After this study we come on a conclusion that what we have to do is, to
make a special fixture for holding the plate & a special tailor made tool to
cut the sample, for this we again study various types of tool material,
Tools ,fixture, how to design the tools and fixtures. To make all this study
we refer various manual, journals, websites IS specifications etc.
After studying first we made a fixture which will hold the job tightly
to eliminate the fatigue and enhance the safety to labor and operator,
then made a special tool of HSS which will cut the material very
efficiently without any hesitation.
The pictures and diagrams and photos in project and presentation
are very neat and clearly which will understand the project very easily
and clearly. We also understand that some of the propositions of this
work will inspire to other in the field of Mechanical Engineering.
