The increasing demand for high productivity, reduced operational costs, and efficient space utilization in small-scale industries and maintenance workshops necessitates the development of multifunctional machinery. This paper presents the design and development of a multi-tool indexing drilling machine capable of performing multiple machining operations—such as drilling, sawing, shaping, and selected lathe operations—simultaneously at different working centers. Unlike conventional setups where each operation requires a separate machine, the proposed system integrates these functions into a single unit with indexing capability for precision and versatility. This design not only reduces the need for multiple machines and associated capital investment but also significantly minimizes processing time and labor costs. The machine is particularly beneficial for small-scale industries and automobile maintenance workshops, offering a cost-effective solution without compromising on quality or efficiency. The proposed system emphasizes productivity enhancement while maintaining low production and inventory costs, aligning with the modern industrial goal of achieving high output at minimal expenditure.
