        abstract = {The design and development of a car spoiler drilling machine aimed at improving accuracy and productivity in automotive industries. In conventional manual drilling methods, operations often result in increased human error, hole misalignment, and higher production time, which negatively affect product quality and manufacturing efficiency. These limitations highlight the need for an improved and reliable drilling system.
To overcome these challenges, a fixture-based motorized drilling machine is designed and developed. The system incorporates a rigid frame structure, an electric motor-driven drilling unit, and a specially designed fixture to securely hold the spoiler in position. This arrangement ensures proper alignment, stability, and repeatability during the drilling process. The machine is simple in construction and can be easily operated with minimal training.
The performance of the developed system is evaluated by comparing it with conventional manual drilling methods. The results indicate that the proposed machine significantly reduces production time and improves hole accuracy. Experimental observations show that the drilling time is reduced from approximately 3 minutes in manual operation to about 1.5 minute using the developed machine, achieving nearly 66% improvement in efficiency. Additionally, the system reduces operator fatigue and ensures consistent output quality.},
