Problem Definition

Design an Automatic Paper Bag making machine which is User friendly, Compact & light weighted in nature. It should cost less than Rs.5000. Aesthetically good paper bags that should carry at least 100 g of weight.Staples should not be used. The machine should first sense the inserted paper,layer the papers fold and store the furnished bags.

Concept 1

FUNCTIONS:

1. Rotors are used for intake of paper
2. Layered paper folded by use of weight to make the bag
3. Piston is used to stick glue properly
4. Bag dispatches into collector

Concept 2:

FUNCTIONS:

1.Sliding base plate carries paper 2.Stiching is used to layer and then seal the edges 3.Folding clamp is used to shape the layered paper 4.Stored in a container

Concept 3:

FUNCTIONS:

1. Layering is done by locking the machine at one side and overlapping the papers.
2. Gluing arrangement
3. Folding arrangement
4. Storing unit

Concept 4:

FUNCTIONS:

1. Rack and pinion gear drive is used to stick tape
2. Hydrolic lift is used for folding
3. Robotic arm is used to store bags
4. stored in a container
