In the industrial and metallurgical sectors, there's a significant amount of activity, with numerous tasks requiring timely completion to optimize company profits. Technological advancements have led to increased market demands for various product components. To address this need, there's been a development of a cost-effective, compact, and user-friendly power hammer machine aimed at easing the forging operations of blacksmiths. This innovative machine targets small-scale industries or workshops seeking more efficient forging solutions that demand less force compared to existing hammer machines. It specifically aids in producing intricate small-scale components. The current project revolves around the modelling, design, and fabrication of this power hammer machine. AutoCAD was utilized for modelling, and design calculations harnessed kinetic principles to determine critical parameters such as motor capacity, hammer impact velocity, torque, kinetic energy, and sudden impact strokes.
