to the material they annotate.

The chapters may be broadly divided into following sequence

Introduction to Project
Problem Definition
Literature Survey
Research Methodology
Result Analysis
Conclusion

3.12 Appendices – Appendices are provided to give supplementary information, which is

included in the main text may serve as a distraction and cloud the central theme.

Appendices should be numbered using Arabic numerals, e.g. Appendix 1, Appendix 2,

 ABSTRACT
The primary objective is to design and manufacture a machine to perform the task

of paper stapling and folding automatically to reduce the wastage of human efforts,

time and cost. The machine will be fed the required quantity of page. Then the

stapling operation will be performed and then the answer sheet will be folded by

passing it between a set of rollers. It will serve to schools and colleges to make

answer sheets in quiet easy and economic manner.
