PLC Based Paper Cutting Machine

Here we propose the concept of “Automatic Paper Cutting Machine Using Geneva
Mechanism”. The system is based on the “Geneva Mechanism”, a mechanism that
translates a continuous rotational movement into intermittent rotary motion. This
mechanism is used here in Automatic Paper Cutting Machine, where an Internal
Geneva drive, helps to run the whole system.
Along with this mechanism the system also consists a “Programmable Logic
Controller” or commonly known as “PLC”. The PLC being the industrial grade
digital computer provide us the full operational control over the system with the
help of programming, also it makes the system fully automated. These two
components make the Automatic Paper Cutting Machine efficient in it’s task and
reliable very up to the mark. For demonstration purpose, above machine is
designed to cut a group of 5 cut outs in a single command, but the PLC
programing and Geneva Mechanism can be modified in order to fit any industrial
usage or for any other desired application and output.
