Abstract
Graphical synthesis using MATLAB for a four bar quick return mechanism is a successful approach that will help in designing a mechanism and satisfy all the needed characteristics of the mechanism. The quick return mechanism has wide industrial applications like the shaping machine. This paper discusses the mathematical model of the four bar mechanism, also it shows the analytical equations used to design the mechanism. MATLAB was used to solve a set of equations and give the optimal dimensions of the planar mechanism.

Keywords
Mechanism design, four bar linkage, quick return.
