Extant research on fabrication of machine parts have contributed to an understanding of manufacturing processes for a tank cover, using conventional methods. However, the gap lies in the need to tap on advanced manufacturing processes in the production of a leak-proof tank cover, to achieve not only precision, dependability, and mass production but also to promote the issue of context in the manufacturing industry. To respond to this gap, we present research that utilizes novel experimental techniques for tool and die production, to demonstrate superiority over existing research in terms of using modern trends in the production line. The contribution lies in buttressing the synergy between conventional ways of fabricating machine parts in the workshop by using current trends to achieve same results as conventional ways of fabricating machine parts by exploiting advantages of using computer numerically controlled machines in the production of the minting ink tank cover. A numerically controlled milling machine was used to achieve better results compared with conventional methods. Engineering design software was used to generate 2-D coordinates of the work piece diagram with which a computer program was written, duly simulated and certified fit to produce the work piece. Results showed an exact replication of the minting ink tank cover that is more importantly, capable of producing 25 pieces per hour and an annual volume of 48000 pieces. These results are significant to the manufacturing industry in achieving four things: time and energy management, mass production, super surface finish, and consistent quality.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
