There has been a serious demand for intermittent packet movement in the industries from the beginning. Although continuous movement is more or less important in the same field, sporadic movement has become essential. The objective of our project is to produce a mechanism that provides this movement of stop and movement through mechanical links. The advantage of our system over the conveyor system is that the system has a delay time between moving packages and this delay can be used to introduce any alteration in the package or move the package for any other purpose and equally. While in the conveyor system such actions can not be performed unless the programmed module is used to produce intermittent stop of the belt which is basically costly. The prototype design requires electric motor, shafts and the frame from which the frame and platform on which the containers are moved. All links are made of wood which reduces the weight of the entire system including the head that has a direct contact with the boxes that are moving.
