Abstract

Our eyes are the most important organ that helps us to see everything in this beautiful world. But nowadays almost everyone from small children to old people are facing various eye problems. Because of this, surgery has become necessary to solve eye problems in some cases. Currently, doctors prefer diamond knives for precise eye surgery due to the extreme sharpness of diamonds, but these types of knives have high material and processing costs which are not affordable for common people. Hence, the demand for precision surgical knives in eye surgery using SS 304 is increasing day by day. But since the eye surgery knife is completely handmade, so it is not possible to make errorless sharp knife according to our daily needs. CNC edge sharpening process is one of the main important processes to make errorless eye surgery knife which will also help in mass production. This research work has been introduced an automated CNC edge sharpening machine designed and manufacturing to solve this problem with speed up the manufacturing process and sharpen blade edges. This business model will be of significant interest to businessman and policy-makers who looking to develop unique quality ophthalmic knives with improved sharpness and productivity. The main objective of developing this business model is to assess market potential, establish a strong value proposition, identify target customer segments and develop an effective commercialization strategy.
