How to Make Arduino based paper cutting machine | Arduino project

Hello friends in this video I have made a paper cutting machine using arduino and some stepper motors and custom PCB.
I have used Two stepper motors one feeds the paper to the cutter and one stepper motor slides the blade to cut the paper.
User will enter data like how many strips need to cut and how long each strip would be, from the the 2.8" nextion HMI

A good application can be plastic rectangles needed for rewinding motors, the material is a little more hard than paper, in a rewinding you require a lot of cuts for a single motor!

Cheers! I hope you put her to good work. I used to work in a shop that made road signs, they cut wax paper on full sized machines like this to stack between parts to prevent scratching. That machine will really help to elevate the customers impression of any shipped good.

Nice one! Quick and easy improvement: use a blade that cuts on the way back too. This way you don't need to drag it back each time.

I want to see this guy make an arduino based CNC that carves a log into thousands of toothpicks

can u do the same proyect but also a printer before cutting the paper?then u have a printer and a cutter

When I first read the title I thought it was some weapon that gave people papers cuts! Great project keep them up! 👍

It's a great project! Looks like the belt needs some tension:)

It’s very neat. But for a bunch of straight cuts of paper, I just lay a ruler over a stack of paper and run a box cutter across. But, I like the arduino ingenuity.

Nice work. Maybe adding a second blade facing the opposite way for a second cut would make it much faster

This thing could also be an amazing compact drawing robot. Very nice design

[youngtevanced]

good work, it is really helpful for those who are multi-tasking, hope you keep improving this

Hello : just asking : what software shouild be used to open the paper.hmi file ?
and will you share the stl files for this project ?

Thank you.

Curious why you produced a DC brushed speed controller segment on the PCB but never used it.Tried for the drive motor but didn't work? More options?

[garramiro]

why is this labeled a "how to" video, you show a pcb but no way to buy it or design it or program it. you don't provide a BOM for the project either.

[geoffreyphillips]

maybe i am silly but were can i get the parts to make this and i have looked every ware to 3d print some of the parts ???

[Badcrow]

Why does this need a custom PCB? Is it just for powering the motors?

[basitkupe]

Which components you have used for it ? All information about it

[splendensregan]

Great! Now, why not a wire cutting and bending machine to format jumpers to breadboards?

[TechsScience]

😯Amazing
It would cost thousands of Rupees

[maianovolan]

do you have a solution also for paper with smaller width? (like cash machine roll paper)
