In today’s fast life everyone wants to save time and money, even small scale industrialist wants to earn more profits with
given limited resources .due to the globalization the competition is increasing day by day, especially micro industries is
facing lot of trouble to sustain in throat cutting competition. So we came up with an idea of saving money and also we
can increase the flexibility by designing and fabricating of slotting attachment for lathe machine. By this attachment we
can make a slot on shaft on lathe machine. Which can save money of small industrialist by avoiding the subcontracting of
works which may require special machines. This paper aims to help the small scale production floors where a lathe
machine exists. Using this project slots can be cut on work pieces using a lathe machine. This project is an attempt to
design and fabricate an attachment for lathe machine which would produce square slot much easier than the currently
available methods.
