Abstract - There is a lot of paper work that needs to be arranged into files and folders in various institutions, offices and industries. For this to be achieved, holes have to be made in paper using a punching machine. Employees in most offices and institutions usually share manual paper punching machines. Automated paper punching machines are a solution but existing brands are too costly for the working class in this nation.

Paper punching is a tedious task and requires a lot of human effort. This leads to a lot of fatigue among workers especially those working in paper centric departments of institutions and offices. Punching multiple papers at a time requires a lot of energy as well as time when done manually. Plus, the existing automated paper punching machines are too costly to attain. The existing automated paper punching machines can be commonly found in high end offices and industries that manufacture stationary such as calendars and notebooks.
