Design and Fabrication of Paper Shredder Machine

Abstract

--This paper deals with a detailed study & design procedure of a paper shredder machine. A detailed study of various parts of shredder machine like stand (frame), transmission system and cutting system are made and designed separately. The first part deals with the study of cutting system of a shredder machine i.e. types of blades, different profiles, its dimensions, its alignment, advantages and disadvantages of different types of blades. The second part includes problem definition, objectives, procedure of design with the detailed design of each component of the cutting and transmission system i.e. designing a blade and making certain modifications in it and the frame. The third and last part deals with the design of 3D model of various parts on Dassult Systems " SOLIDWORKS 2014 " and its motion study and the analysis of the stand in ANSYS 15.
