Abstract:
In many industries various types of machines and equipment have been used for
various operations such as forging, hammering, cutting etc. But different
problems such as low power supply, less man power and also heavy laborious
work force, safety etc.
This projects relates to operation performed by this can be achieved by either
using electric motor power or by manually by means of simply rotating a hand
lever attached to the shaft and hammering action can be provided. If there is
good power supply it can be run automatically.
For automatic operation A.C. motor is provided. Chain drive, belt drive,
governor are also provided for speed control purposes so that the suitable speed
can be achieved. When no electric power supply is there the advance cam
operated hammer can be used manually by simply rotating the hand lever. Also
the handling is simple and maintenance is easy of the project.
A framing hammer including an automatic feeding magazine supported within
the hammerhead by guide rails with a self-loading magazine. Through the
center of the upper portion of the hammer handle lies the self-loading
reciprocating magazine. The top end of the magazine actuates due to the force
of the impact of the tool through its natural operation. The magazine is inclined
at 21° relative to the handle and is spaced in the center of the handle from the
1
rear of the nail driving face. Structure is provided for individually driving a nail
from a magazine contained row of commercially available 21° collated nails
toward the rearward facing end of the hammerhead. Upon impact the tool
dispenses and sets a nail up to a 1½″ into the work surface, upon disengagement
the tool reciprocates to resets to its resting position whereupon the tool is ready
to repeat the action.

INTRODUCTION
Tread Hammering hammering machine can be considered as the backbone of
any hammering operation in mass production its principle function is to safely
and preciously hammering work like to perform the punching operation,
filleting operation, riveting operation and smithy operation i.e. upset forging etc
for all designed operating conditions.
This paper describes cad modeling, design and analysis of automatic portable
hammering machine. A programmed hammering machine self-working machine
going to assume an imperative part in the assembling procedure (hammering
process). Hammering machine utilized as a part of the generation of material
extending from instruments, to pivots, car frame forming, molding of metal and
so forth. The present development identified with metal squeezing machine and
forming machine included certain outstanding challenges in regard of to drive
nail, fit parts, forge metal and break separated question. The innovation has for
its question cure this downside and to empower, by including helper implies, to
drive nail, fit parts, manufacture metal and break separated protest the like.
Hammering is the most generally utilized in mechanical operation and also
development action. The suitability of such an idea was explored as far as
delivering reasonable and compacted plan for specialist which can be exchange
anyplace of this machine by any laborers.

rotary power and motion that is translated, or converted by the operating
mechanism into reciprocating motion and power for a tool holder having
selective interchangeable tools.
COMPOUND HAMMER
Harold S. Sheldon, Tekoa, Washington DC, United States Patent office
journals, Application – October 15, 1947, Serial no. 779931, Patented – March
21, 1950, Published no. US2501542 The invention herein disclosed relates to
steam and air hammers of the pile driver type and in which, usually the motive
4
fluid is just admitted to lift and then released to drop the ram to achieve a strong
downward force to executing any hammering operations. The another objective
of this invention is also taking less time and reducing the breaking probability
of the load or other parts attached to the ram providing hammering action down
the line.
FORGING HAMMER (FLUID OPERATED)
J.J. Kupta Et Al, United States Patent office journals, Application – December
2, 1955, Serial no. 550718, Patented Oct. 23, 1957, Published no. US2789540
This project found very useful when finding out during the literature survey.
This project is simply is an improvement of forging hammers used for industrial
purposes. As we aware that in forging operation the temperature of the metal
part is so high that manual hammering operation is quite difficult for this
purpose. So in this project they provided control valves which directing the ram
up or down by the steam power. So that ram is moved up and down with
attached hammer automatically. So we can provide automatic control over
hammer for the purpose of vital operation like forging.

SLIDER CRANK MECHANISM
In this prototype model we used slider crank mechanism to convert rotary
motion into linear motion. A crank is an arm attached at a right angle to a
rotating shaft by which reciprocating motion is imparted to or received from the
shaft. It is used to convert circular motion into reciprocating motion, or vice
versa. The arm may be a bent portion of the shaft, or a separate arm or disk
attached to it. Attached to the end of the crank by a pivot is a rod, usually called
a connecting rod (con rod). The end of the rod attached to the crank moves in a
circular motion, while the other end is usually constrained to move in a linear
sliding motion. The term often refers to a human-powered crank which is used
to manually turn an axle, as in a bicycle crank set or a brace and bit drill. In this
case a person's arm or leg serves as the connecting rod, applying reciprocating
force to the crank. There is usually a bar perpendicular to the other end of the
arm, often with a freely rotatable handle or pedal attached.
6
Fig 1: SLIDER CRANK MECHANISM
Many applications require a machine with reciprocating, linear sliding motion
of a component. Engines and compressors require a piston to move through a
precise distance, called the stroke, as a crank continuously rotates. Other
applications such as sewing machines and power hacksaws require a similar,
linear, reciprocating motion. A form of the slider-crank mechanism is used in
virtually all these applications.
1.2 OBJECTIVES OF PROJECTS
Determination of impact velocity and torque force of hammer.
To determine the time required for the various operations.
Prepare the modeling of project on CATIA V5R20.
Automation with minimum man power.
Low initial and operating cost.
As time required in less useful in mass production
7
The main objective of our project work is to reduce or neglect the defined
problem and provide an idea to overcome various problems by fabricating
the concept as well as working model which represents a solution given
to the existing problem.
So our objective is to provide an electric motor driven mechanism so that
the machine can perform operations with the help of electricity and
automatically. The another objective is to give manual handling
attachment by means of hand lever in the same model so that without
power supply the operator can perform the various hammering operations
without disrupting or stopping the machine.
Another objective of our project is to get an impact from the hammer to
the work piece by using the effective way by Snail cam. So that the
complicated mechanisms get neglected and cost of the system can be
reduced very much.
1.3 INVENTIONS
This is the next generation of the hammer. This is an auto-feed system of
installing nails or modern fasteners used in any common facet in general
construction ranging from but not limited to from rough carpentry, finish
carpentry, and all other practical uses where a fastener is utilized. The system is
designed to have an interchangeable magazine and nail driver to accommodate
any nail size lending itself to the diversity of this product. This system will
8
eliminate the need to manually hold a fastener during the act of installing said
fastener as the entire operation can be done with one hand as opposed to modern
techniques which includes the use of employing two hands; one hand to hold
the fastener and the other hand to operate the hammer. This entire single
operation is accomplished through the act of manually swinging the hammer
system with enough force to actuate the magazines' lateral movement upon
impact with the work surface, thereby driving the fastener into the intended
position. Upon impact and installation of said fastener into the work surface, the
subsequent nail from contained clip of nails will lift to position from a spring
pressured spring follower resulting in a fully prepared ready for actuated impact
of the Automatic Hammer.
Upon installation of fasteners into the work surface, the advantage and intended
use of the device is rotated 180° within the workhand. Once the hammer is
rotated, the Automatic Hammer system is used to complete the installation of
fastener through manual swinging and impact of the hammer head to fastener.
The resulting installation of fastener does not release an additional nail on the
opposite side of the hammer, due to the inertia device system. The inertia device
system restrains all lateral movement of the nail magazine. The prevention of
the nail magazine from lateral movement upon impact is due to the inertia
device plunger extending into the inertia device notch contained within the
hammer body. Once impact is complete, the inertia device plunger is reset to its
9
natural position by the force of the inertia device spring into the inertia device
housing.
This Automatic Hammer solves the inherent problem of utilizing two hands as
opposed to the one-handed operation with this device. Secondly, the safety
implications of one handed use resolves the issue of impact to user; from
holding fastener with one hand and possible injury with hammer from other
hand.
The object of this invention is to more efficiently install a fastener into a work
surface with minimal effort as compared to currently used techniques due to the
limited technologies of the basic hammer.
1. A hammer body comprised of a portion divided at the rearward of the
length of said body creating a separation, this separation comes together
near the neck of the hammer body, which brings together a solid neck
connected to a waffle faced hammer head at the frontward portion of the
hammer body; extending from the hammer body towards the lower portion
of the tool; the divided hammer handles continues the separation of said
body, for clarity this creates a continuous separation starting from the
hammer handle and ending at the neck of the hammer body.
2. The hammer body as in claim 1 wherein the guide rail channel is imbedded
on each side of the rearward portion of the divided hammer body.
10
3. The hammer body as in claim 1 wherein the guide rail channel houses a
guide rail channel spring.
4. The hammer body as in claim 1 wherein includes an inertia device notch in
the divided body portion of said body.
5. The hammer body as in claim 1 wherein connects to a hammer handle,
which will be made of fiberglass, composite, or metal wrapped by rubber
as to yet be determined through research and development.
6. The hammer body as in claim 1 wherein a hammer hanger is placed at the
base of the hammer handle in a circular design to hang on a tool belt.
7. A nail driver is the primary impact point between fastener and the
Automatic Hammer for setting fasteners into work surfaces and is
essentially a solid milled hardened rod with a groove milled into the lower
portion of the rod to accommodate the next fastener contained within the
collated nails; the nail driver is directly attached to the inner separation of
the hammer body.
1.3 ANALYTICAL TECHNIQUES.
Analytical methods can also be used to achieve precise results. Advanced
analytical techniques often involve intense mathematical CALCULATION. In
addition, the significance of the calculations is often difficult to visualize.
11
The analytical techniques incorporated in this text couple the theories of
geometry, CAD Modeling and graphical mechanism analysis. This approach
will achieve accurate solutions, yet the CAD modeling of automatic hammering
machine graphical theories allow the solutions to be visualized. A significant of
automatic hammering machine dedicated to these analytical techniques.

No Manual Effort.
Portable System.
Low Initial Cost.

CHAPTER -2
METHODOLOGY AND MATERIALS
This project has various different design paths to complete our products while
matting the objectives. these means we will have to implement and compare our
different design to insure the best product on our sat of objectives .this paths
have changed as we progressed through our project, and there were few fore
seen methods that we expand upon in the design section.
The basic design for automatic hammering machine is to have motor fixed on
stand, and then motor shaft is inserted in center hole of the disc. Disc is
connected to the hammer rod with the link rod when we supply the dc current to
the dc motor by using adopter then the motor shaft start rotating further transmit
the spinning motion to the disc by using shaft the first decision is to create an
impact force for the respective operation this will help to determine product
affordability. A more efficient yet expensive design would be to have battery
instead of adopter. There is bound to be various obstacles and design method to
be implemented as projected progressives and will be observed and recorded as
they occur.
During literature survey we found various research papers in which we found
various methods which are been used to provide strong impact force to the work
13
piece and our aim is to take that review for using as a guidance to make
"Advance cam operated hammer”.
2.1 COMPONENT STEEL PIPE
Steel casing pipe protects one or many of various types of utilities such as water
mains, gas pipes, electrical power cables, fiber optic cables, etc. The utility lines
that are run through the steel casing pipe are most commonly mounted and
spaced within the steel casing pipe by using "casing spacers" that are made of
various materials, including stainless steel or carbon steel and the more
economical plastic versions. The ends of a steel casing pipe "run" are normally
sealed with "casing end seals", which can be of the "pull-on" or "wrap-around"
rubber varieties. Steel casing pipe is also used in the construction of deep
foundations.
14
2.2 HAMMER
In this project we have used hammer having weight 1.5kg for various operations
such as punching, upset forging, riveting, etc. these types of manufacturing
operations in manufacturing industries.
2.3 SPRIING
A spring is an elastic object that stores mechanical energy.
Springs are typically made of spring steel. There are many spring
designs. In everyday use, the term often refers to coil springs. The
rate or spring constant of a spring is the change in the force it
exerts, divided by the change in deflection of the spring.
15
2.4 STEEL PLATE
Steel derives its mechanical properties from a combination of
chemical composition, heat treatment and manufacturing processes.
While the major constituent of steel is iron, the addition of very small
quantities of other elements can have a marked effect upon the
properties of the steel. The strength of steel can be increased by the
addition of alloys such as manganese, niobium and vanadium.
However, these alloy additions can also adversely affect other
properties, such as ductility , toughness and weldability .
Mechanical working takes place as the steel is being rolled or formed.
The more steel is rolled, the stronger it becomes. This effect is
apparent in the material standards, which tend to specify reducing
levels of yield strength with increasing material thickness.
The effect of heat treatment is best explained by reference to the
various production process routes that can be used in steel
manufacturing, the principal ones being:
16
2.5 NUT AND BOLT
Bolts are often used to make a bolted joint. This is a combination of
the nut applying an axial clamping force and also the shank of the bolt
acting as a dowel, pinning the joint against sideways shear forces. For
this reason, many bolts have a plain unthreaded shank (called the grip
length) as this makes for a better, stronger dowel. The presence of the
unthreaded shank has often been given as characteristic of bolts vs.
screws,[3] but this is incidental to its use, rather than defining. The
grip length should be chosen carefully, to be around the same length
as the thickness of the materials, and any washers, bolted together.[4]
Too short places the dowel shear load onto the threads, which may
cause fretting wear on the hole.
A screw must always be turned to assemble the joint. Many bolts are
held fixed in place during assembly, either by a tool or by a design of
non-rotating bolt, such as a carriage bolt, and only the corresponding
nut is turned

Steel Plate = 450mm.× 750 mm.
Spring = 100 gm And 25mm.
Bolt = .5 inch Dia 10mm. Lenth 8. Number of Bolt Used.
2.4 BACKGROUND
The Automatic Hammer is a combination of the common use hammer and
pneumatic nail gun. A nail gun, nailgun, or nailer is a type of tool used to drive
nails into wood or some other kind of material. The first nail gun used air
pressure and was introduced to the market in 1950 to speed the construction of
housing (Unknown, Nail Gun, n.d.).
19
A nail gun uses the most popular sort of nail-loading mechanism. The nails are
connected together in a long strip. This nail strip loads into the gun's magazine,
which feeds into the “barrel” of the gun. Springs in the base of the magazine
push the nail strip into the barrel. When the hammer comes down, it separates
the first nail from the strip, driving it out of the gun and into the wood. When
the hammer is cocked back, the springs push the next nail into position (Harris,
2001).
Framing hammers, used for framing wooden houses, are heavy duty rip
hammers with a straight claw. The hammer heads typically weigh from 20 to 32
ounces (567 to 907 grams) for steel heads, and 12 to 16 ounces (340 to 454
grams) for titanium heads. Heavy heads, longer handles, and milled faces allow
for driving large nails quickly into dimensional lumber.
Framing hammers have increasingly been replaced by nail guns for the majority
of nails driven on a wood framed house. A hammer is a tool meant to deliver an
impact to an object. The most common uses are for driving nails, fitting parts,
forging metal and breaking up objects. Hammers are often designed for a
specific purpose, and vary widely in their shape and structure. The usual
features are a handle and a head, with most of the weight in the head. The basic
design is hand-operated, but there are also many mechanically operated models
for heavier uses, such as steam hammers.
20
The hammer may be the oldest tool for which definite evidence exists. Stone
hammers are known to be dated to 2,600,000 BCE. The hammer is a basic tool
of many professions. By analogy, the name hammer has also been used for
devices that are designed to deliver blows. The essential part of a hammer is the
head, a compact solid mass that is able to deliver the blow to the intended target
without itself deforming.
In recent years the handles have been made of durable plastic or rubber. The
hammer varies at the top; some are larger than others giving a larger surface
area to hit different sized nails and such (Unknown, n.d.).

DESIGN OF HAMMERING MACHINE
3.1. Calculations
A) To calculate maximum torque by Foot
Given Data:-
Force Appied
F = 30 N
D = 1. Meter
Workdane =30 N-M
Power Transmitted by Foot,
P=F×D
= 96 × 1
P= 96 W
22
Distance of rod BA,
Fig 4: FREE BODY DIAGRAM
To find the distance of BA,
By Pythagoras theorem
(AB) 2 + (BC) 2 = (CA) 2
(AB) 2 + (153) 2 = (420)2
(AB) = 391.14 mm
B) To find torque force transmitted we have two cases
23
CASE 1: When Hammer Moves Downward.
Given:
(BC) = h = 153 mm = 0.153 mm
Maximum torque = 30.55 N-m
= 30.55 × 103 N-mm
Length of hammer rod = 420 mm
= 0.42 m
CASE 2: WHEN HAMMER GOES UPWARD, TORQUE FORCE WILL
BE DECREASED
24
C) TO FIND IMPACT VELOCITY OF HAMMER,
Given:-
H =153 mm = 0.153 m
T (time required for one re revolution of Disc) = 2 sec.
So,
V=h×T
V = 0.15 × 2
So the impact velocity of hammer is 0.306 m /sec.
RESULT
Thus for riveting of 2mm rivet calculated the impact velocity
is 0.306 m/sec with a torque force of 83.86 N-m is sufficient
and it is calculated successfully.
D) TO CALCULATE SHEAR STRESS IN BOLTED JOINT
25
We have bolted joints so there is torsional shear stress in
joints,
We have,
T = 30.55 N-m.
d = Diameter of bolt 10 mm.
J = polar moment of inertia.
RESULT
As the standard permissible value of shear stress for M10 bolt is 396.8 × 103
N/mm2 and the calculated value of shear stresses is 311.73 × 103 N/m2 so
Therefore the value of shear stress is less than permissible shear stress the
design is safe.

CHAPTER -3
COMPUTER AIDED MODELLING
4.1 INTRODUCTION
CAD modelling is used by many designers to create elaborate computerized
model of objects. CAD is computer-aided design. Engineers, architects, and
even stands artists utilize computers to assist their design projects. Computers
allow them to in visualize their designs and confront problems before they have
expended any of the resources necessary to put them into physical form CAD
modelling takes many different forms depending on the type of project. Some
models are simple two dimensional representations of various views of an
object. Others are elaborate threedimensional cross-sections that show every
detail in great depth. It is an important industrial art involved in automotive,
aerospace, prosthetic, and artistic designs. The use of CAD modelling is
massively widespread; anything from chairs to rockets can be designed with the
aid of computer programs. CAD modelling has had a profound effect on the
process's development. First, a general idea must be made to solve a specific
problem. Next, CAD modelling is used to work out the specifics of the model's
design.
27
4.2 TYPE OF CAD MODELING
4.2.1 WIREFRAME MODELS
Wireframe systems were developed in the early 1960s to automate design
drafting of the early 3 CAD Systems used wireframe models. The very first
systems were only 2D and the user had to construct a model point by point and
line by line. A wireframe model is represented by tables defining edges and
points. The start point and the end point of each edge are stored in the edge
table. An edge may be a line or a curve. The coordinates of each point are stored
in the point table. This representation is natural for a designer who is familiar
with mechanical drawing" since is the lines and curves in a drawing which
define 3D shape a wireframe it simply in a computer as a data structure. The
storage space is Del stored very is l and the access time very short.
4.2.2 SURFACE MODELS
Surface models a surface model is represented by tables of edges and points, as
is a wireframe model, but additional to wireframe. A surface model is
represented by tables of faces. The face table stores information on which edges
are attached to each face, In most conventional CAD systems for free-form
surfaces, surface models have been used as internal representations. However, a
surface model is a set of faces, and as such can be ambiguous when determining
28
the volume of an object. Surface models play an important role in industry,
because they give an accurate description of the surface of an object. An
example of a very simple surface models shown in Figure.
4.2.3 SOLID MODELS
Because there is no ambiguity in using a solid s 3D object, the importance of
using solid modelling has been widely recognized. Solid models can support a
wide range of activities, like interference check computation of volume and
surface area, finite element analysis etc. In general, most solid modelling
systems have adopted either constructive solid geometry CSG) or boundary
representation (B-Rep) as representations of solid Solids. Solid models may be
divided in three basic classes as follows:
l. Decomposition models represent a solid as a collection of simple object
from a fixed collection of primitive object types, combined with a single
gluing operation;
2. Constructive models represent a solid as a combination of primitive solids
each of the primitives is represented as an instance of a primitive solid
type. Different types of constructive modelling representations are half
pace representation and CSG;
3. Boundary models represent a solid in terms of its boundary. The boundary
of a solid is a surface that is usually represented as a collection of faces.
29
Faces again, are often represented as a bounded region of the surfaces. B-
Rep represents a solid boundary as a "skin" around the object. Following
showing the 3D solid models of various components of project by using
modelling software CATIA V5R20
