Background
of the Project
Polygonal surfaces find their
applications in:

• Mechanical fasteners (for gripping

purpose)
• On rods (to couple attachment)
Principal Machining Processes
• Turning
• Milling

Polygonal surfaces can be made by:

• Milling machine (slow)
• CNC (expensive)
Objectives
• To fabricate a lathe attachment for polygonal machining which can
operate without the use of any additional power source.
• Turning the polygonal surfaces on the circular work-piece in a single
stroke without indexing
• Machining of non- circular objects on lathe
• Reduction in machining hrs.
• Economical
