Abstract: This study is concerned with design and construction of a portable circular multi-blade rotary power cutting tool in which rotation of the circular blade is provided by a 3 horse power AC electric motor and the fitting of each blade through the line shaft is done through the use of specialized shims. The test and evaluation were done by the comparative test method. The portable circular multi-blade rotary power cutting tool is consists of two pulleys with a belt and line shaft with two bolt pillow blocks that are used to transmit rotation from the motor to the blade. The motor is powered by electricity using a push button switch. Its body is made of steel to withstand heavy loading. It has two carter wheels located at the lower back for mobility. It is provided with a clamp, wheel guard, belt and pulley cover is provided for safety purposes. The use of single tool performing cutting of material in any type is beneficial not only for the operator but also, to the manufacturing that uses mainly cutting tools.
Keywords: Cutting Tool, Circular Cutting Tool, Portable Multi-blade Cutting Tool, and Rotary Power cutting Tool.
