The project is to make some modifications in automatic pouch filling machine which is mainly used for filling and the packing of milk pouches. The project is sponsored by Qualitronics industry. The machine was operated by electric power and it was fully automatic this saves a lot of time and cost as it is automatic machine. But, the main problem lies in the rural areas where the electric power supply is not available consistently . Also, due to the frequent power cuts and fluctuating supply of electricity , it becomes very difficult to operate the machine in the rural areas and to achieve desired production. The main purpose of modification is to make the machine manually operated , so that the operator can continue his work without any interruption caused by power failure. In this project, we narrowed our focus to make the, horizontal sealing mechanism manually operated as it consumes maximum amount of power. We designed a suitable mechanism which consists of pulley, gears, and cam operated correspondingly with hand lever. The design is specified and by theoretical calculations it was found to be correct. The mechanism that we designed has higher F.O.S and also it is small and compact with the minimum effort applied at handle the mechanical advantage is gained at the gears , pulleys and we get required high torque at the Cam and follower.
