Abstract - The "Precise Wood Engraving Machine" project is primarily used to accurately and correctly cut mild steel, plastic, and wood plates into various shapes. The pantograph, a mechanical linkage connected in a parallelogram-based fashion and used for copying and scaling line drawings with complex images, is included in this machine along with the conventional cutting tools. The working principle of a four-bar mechanism in which one link is fixed while the others pivot. These other links move in sync with the tracing link. This device is inexpensive and highly useful. In this project, a model of the "Precise Wood Engraving Machine" will be created using CAD software such as AutoCAD, Pro-E, Solid Works, etc. The machine's performance would be reduced if the components that are readily available in the marketplace were taken into account, which would result in a poor surface finish.
Key Words: Pantograph, Parallelogram, Four Bar Mechanism and AutoCAD, etc.
