The Automation field is rapidly taking over the production and manufacturing sectors because of its heightened performance with improved accuracy and precision. Therefore, it is essential to understand the application and the significance of the involvement of automation in conventional drilling machines. The CAD geometry of the project is prepared in Solid Works, and finite element analysis considering the von misses stress, and displacement theory is carried out to find the effects of external loads on the motors and critical components of the fixture. The analysis where performed based on load calculated to be of 580.75 N, which gives stresses ranging of 1.466 to 117.7 MPa in the components. The project goal underscores the advantages of automation in drilling, including identifying and correcting errors occurring due to manual handling of systems. This project raises procedures for maintaining, setting up the work and work holding devices to get the job done accurately
