Welding is a joining process used to join materials, usually metals or thermoplastics, by causing coalescence. This is mostly done by melting the work-pieces and adding a filler material to form a pool of molten material that cools to become a strong joint, with pressure sometimes used in association with heat, or by itself, to produce the weld. The present work deals with a live task to design Double End Drive machine a SPM for manufacturing industry. The main aim is to design a machine to automate the circular welding process with the help of automatic drive. We have designed and analyzed various components of Double End drive machine and it is found that the newly designed machine is performing its intended function with expected effectiveness and efficiency. The newly designed machine automates the process of welding thereby reducing the work fatigue, Monotonous work and complexity of the process. The paper presents the details of design and analysis of components as well as pneumatic circuit to automate the welding process.
