SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Presently, the process of cutting the substances including tiles, marble, and stones, remains substantially the same as cutting methods that have been employed for the past 50 years and is still popular throughout the world. However, with the development over the past twenty years, in the production of tiles and marbles, there have been developments resulting in the design of the marble tiles with a greater contemporary appearance and size in response to the fashion and trends of modern architecture and interior design. One concern with many existing techniques adopted in the cutting is that it requires manual labor and it is time-consuming, impactive the productivity of manufacturers and causing financial losses due to the delay in the delivery of the pieces. Secondly, the precision which is expected from the cutting based on the expected size is not achievable with the apparatus being used today. The advance machinery using which the accuracy is possible are either too bulky or expensive to be used in this industry, so a viable and affordable solution is required for the about stated problem. This invention provides a mechanism in the form of an apparatus which can almost automate the rigorous procedure of fixing a measurement for the cutting machine to obtain predicted output. The system is

made operable using a remote-controlled mechanism where the optimal measure can be fed to the system and the inventive apparatus will set the bars of the system to the sized in which the marbles need to be cut using the default cutting machine. The enhances system does not cause any change to the current working of the cutting machines, so it outshines as an economical apparatus modernizing the presently available marble cutting machine. It also tries to reduce the utilization of the water in the cutting machine thus reducing the wastage of water

The present invention is regarding a system which serves as an automatic mechanism to the marble cutting system to arrange the marble in the position so as to cut it in the optimal size requirement.
The inventive system is made with the benefit to be easily assembled and dissembled into any of the presently available marble cutting systems. The problem with the presently available system is that to obtain the size of the marble manual procedure is used to fix the scale so as to use the cutting machine to achieve acceptable size. The problem of achieving variable size with the manual procedure is one of the leading drawbacks of the present system. This inventive apparatus provides the flexibility to achieve marble of any varying length effortlessly using the automated mechanism in fixing the measurement.
The marble cutting system’s designed has not be changed instead the apparatus built has a liner slider on which a bar is assembled which is moved to and fro so as to fix the length of the marble from the cutting end. The distance from the cutting blade to the horizontal bar defines the length of the marble tile. The bar

is made movable so that any designed length can be achieved between 0 – 24-inch size.
The system constructs of an LCD screen, a remote communication set up, an Arduino/PLC which is programmed to receive the command which has been set by the operator on the LCD screen of the computing device and using wireless communication including internet, RF Frequency the message is sent to the Arduino/PLC which in turn commands the stepper motor/servo motor to provide the rotational motion to move the bar to and fro on the linear slider.
The system is powered using transformer/SMPSs and two transformer/SMPSs are used into the apparatus where one is used to power the Arduino/PLC and other to power the drivers. The drivers command the motors to move the bar as per the measurement fixed in the remote device. The liner slider on which the bar is mounted consists of 2 roller bearing and 2 linear bearing. The roller bearings provide support and degree of freedom to ball screw/lead screw with respect to two end support and the linear bearing provides support and degree of freedom to the platform with respect to shafting, which is supported with both end metal support. In addition to it consists of 2 shafts and ball screw/lead screw which are attached to support, in a parallel manner. The shafts are at the sides and the ball screw/lead screw is fixed in the middle. The movement of the platform is because of ball screw/lead screw nut which is integrated between ball screw/lead screw and platform and one end of the ball screw/lead screw is connected to a pulley which is connected to the stepper motor/servo motor, timing belt, and pulley mechanism.
The above state system work in coordination for setting the measurement in a marble cutting machine. The apparatus above stated form a system where the operator is in possession of the computing system which is made capable to accept the length measurement of the marble which needs to be cut. The accepted data is received by the Arduino system attached physically to the apparatus unit mounted on the cutting machine. The Arduino/PLC is powered using a transformer/SMPS which is inbuilt in the apparatus system. The

Arduino/PLC then sends the command to the stepper motor/servo motor driver which in turn manages the server motor or the stepper motor which is attached to the liner slider of the system. The slider is responsible for the movement of the bar mounted on it to fix the size of the marble with respect to the cutting blade of the cutting machine. This inventive system is fixed to the existing marble cutting machine to utilize its provision for the obtaining precise cut marble due to the optimal arrangement of marble bloc on the system. When the Horizontal bar gets fixed exactly at the distance as commanded by the operator, the marble can be placed on to the machine table and the system will consider the size of the marble from the cutting blade to the bar and the cutting operation is performed. The bar is so strongly built that it holds the marble as possible when the blade is cutting through the marble piece place on the machine table.
As the arrangement of the automatic arrangement of the marble as per the optimal size has become quick and programmed this can serve as a factor in reducing the water wastage in the marble cutting apparatus. Usually, water is used while the marble is being cut to reduce friction and to obtain smooth finishing at the edge and the water flow usually starts when the system is switched on and the in case the measurement needs to be adjusted, the water is kept flowing as it consumes time to adjust it manually. With this implemented system the adjustment is made automatic reducing the adjustment time thus saving water. This system increases productivity as less time duration is utilized in the arrangement to obtain optimal size, so the huge quantity of varying size marble tiles can be made. This enhances the economic status and as water is preserved it provides ecological benefits.
