Abstract: “It is important to improve materials property for the application in engineering fields. In pharmaceutical industries, there are different materials used for different purposes collected from foreign countries whereas the factory uses machine in Bangladesh. In pharmaceutical industries, crimping machine is used at Metered Dose Inhaler (MDI) plant to crimp body and head part of the aluminium can. For this, Clamp Sleeve is used as the part of crimping mechanism which was purchased from foreign countries. Due to the continuous action of the clamp sleeve to the crimping tong the inner surface of the clamp sleeve get corroded and also due to surface roughness the pressure of the clamp sleeve to the crimping tong is not uniform, for which it is unable to provide desire shape crimping quality. The clamp sleeve is replaced frequently whenever the crimping appearance fails to meet compliance. Clamp Sleeve Spare parts has been arranged or purchased from the foreign countries like Switzerland whi”
