Notching is used by fabricators in a wide range of applications, including household piping systems, automobile

components, bicycle frames, and aerospace components. Scoring takes many structures and shapes. The

notch shape, the raw material, and manufacturing considerations like tolerance and production rate all

influence the equipment and process required. Most of the time, tube notching is done before joining

two tubes together to form a T or similar joint. Before being welded together, either one or both of the

tubes can be notched. End notching is the process of cutting a hole in the end of a tube to make it into a

shape that will fit into an already-existing tube. The process of cutting an opening into the side of a tube

to create a V notch for bending or a V notch for a T joint is known as side notching or offset notching.

First and foremost, when mounting the tube notcher on a drill press, check to see that the foot is securely

fastened to the table, the shaft is centered beneath the chuck, and the base of the unit is square to the

main body. Ensure that each chuck point is in contact with each shaft flat before inserting the tri-flat

portion of the shaft into the chuck. Check the drill press spindle's up and down motion before turning it

on to ensure there is no binding or friction in the notched tube. Make sure the tubing notcher's base is

securely fastened to a stable benchtop and tightly gripped in a large mounted vice if you plan to use it

with a hand drill or on a tabletop.

The machine that we will create is used to cut the end of the tube so that it can be welded into another shape.

The project provides information about the mechanism for notching the tubes to create their profile.

The cutting speed and electric generated can be altered based on the material to be cut and the

thickness of the jobs. Scoring on pipes/Cylinders is principal process for welding of two roundabout

parts opposite to one another. In the course of our project titled "Development of Mechanism for Notch

Cutting on Circular Objects," A pulley is used to connect the AC motor to the shaft. The cam and follower

mechanism are connected to the Arc cutting torch in order to produce motion in accordance with the

desired profile. The machine is easily transportable and portable

The most crucial function of a vehicle frame is to keep an operator safe while driving normally and in extreme

situations like rollovers. The frame's design and manufacturing will always place safety first. Every BAJA

team in the world and the SAE competition organizers both place a high value on driver safety. Our

frame design will also place an emphasis on accommodating a four-wheel drive system and making the

driver's compartment comfortable for the various potential operators. Because fewer teams have
 worked on these aspects of the frame, there is less data and information about these issues. In the past,

teams have focused on different things. However, there have been teams, such as the 2020 team,

whose objectives and design choices closely match ours. Our team and previous teams share the

objective of making the vehicle as light and compact as possible. However, as previous teams

demonstrated, the driver compartment becomes less comfortable and functional the smaller it is. This

may be the first attempt to address the issue because previous teams have not raised the issue of team

members' varying body sizes. By applying what other teams have learned, our team will be able to

optimize the vehicle's size and make it as comfortable as possible for all team members.

Two processes dominate the market when it comes to making tube and pipe: either by extruding it from an

extrusion press or by forming and welding it on a mill. In the UOE process, for instance, a hydraulic press

is used to produce even larger diameters from plate, while a spiral mill is used to produce large-diameter,

spiral-wound tubes. There are a few more, and many of them were on display in Germany. Seuthe, a

manufacturer of tube mills, makes nearly everything for its mills, peripherals, and tooling because the

company believes that quality control and delivery schedule control begin at home. It is free to design,

build, and demonstrate innovative features for its mills—laser mills for stainless steel and high-frequency

electric resistance welding (HF ERW) mills for carbon steel—with little reliance on outside sources due

to its ability to machine or fabricate nearly everything it needs, down to the electrical cabinets.

Additionally, it indicates that the company can construct mills and peripheral equipment in a one-size-

fits-all manner, adapting the equipment to the application.

Miniature dexterous medical instruments like articulated fiber-optic endoscopic cameras, articulated lasers,

suction and irrigation probes, and wristed forceps, scissors, and drills have increasingly been constructed

using notched-tube compliant joint mechanisms [1–16]. In recent years, a particular emphasis has been

placed on utilizing this technology for endoscope-guided neurosurgery (neuroendoscopy) in order to

produce instruments with flexible wrists [1–7,17]. The instruments used in these applications typically

have a diameter of 1 to 2 mm and are used to operate in small workspaces with dimensions ranging

from 5 to 20 mm [17]. Notched-tube joints can be made using a single material and a single process by

cutting macroscale patterns into metal tubes. An actuation cable can be used to bend these monolithic

geometries in their simplest form, requiring little assembly and few additional components. When

making tools for working in confined body cavities, these features enable this type of joint to be
 manufactured at millimeter sizes, which is why they are frequently preferred to pin-jointed mechanisms.

However, there is a significant design trade-off between joint range of motion, joint stiffness, and joint

compactness when designing these devices for millimeter-sized workspaces.

Saws and plasma cutters are just a few of the tools and machines that can be used to notch pipe and tube. The

hole saw, the abrasive-belt notcher, and the end mill notcher are the most frequently utilized machine

tools for making weld joints for manufacturers, job shops, and hobbyists. Making a few notch holes

for a weld joint with a hole saw is a cheap way to do it. Hole saws can be used with a drill press or a

handheld drill for portability, making them more suitable for hobbyists. To create notches with

various ODs, multiple corresponding hole saws are required. Hole saws produce a less-than-perfect

finish and are not the best option for large numbers of notches or repeatability. It is difficult to notch

thin-walled tube using a hole saw without deforming it, and hole saws typically only come in a

limited number of OD sizes. Having said that, most people who make a notch or two on a budget are

happy with the results. These notchers are produced by a number of manufacturers and share similar

features.
