Abstracts: Since last few decades due to continuous advancement in technology it is prime concern of manufacturers to update their products through various techniques. Value engineering is one such concept. It posses the potential to improve the effectiveness of work that has been conventionally manufactured, through change in design, method of manufacturing etc. Value Engineering on CNC Engraving Machine is identified need of Solar Industries situated at GIDC Makarpura, Vadodara. Engraving is the practice of incising a design on to a surface flat by cutting grooves on it. It is used for representing the logo of the any manufacturing company or any pattern, symbols on surfaces of aluminum, acrylic, copper, plastic, ceramic, stainless steel etc. The machine has 10 components. With the use of Value Engineering, the worthiness of the machine is expected to increase by modification in its existing design and at the same time increasing its functional/operational features keeping in mind the economy of the machine and customer satisfaction. The project also aims at validating the design calculations through the help of modern Analysis software like ANYSIS
