The shaping machine usually cuts on the forward stroke and does not on the backward stroke. So its not required for the tool to be in contact with the work piece when its on the backward stroke. This is ensured by the Clapper box, a device which is hinged to the ram. The lifting of the cutting tool by the clapper box ensures longer tool life and also accidental scratch or other machining defects on the work piece/final product.
Machine shaper are practically used in shaping materials. The parts of the machine shaper are Ram, Table, Clapper Box, Tool head, Cross rail, Stroke Adjustment, Column, Base and Table supports.
A clapper box on a shaper is designed to hold the cutting tool while allowing it to lift off the workpiece during the return stroke. This prevents the tool from dragging across the surface, which could damage both the tool and the workpiece. By lifting the tool, the clapper box ensures a clean and efficient cutting action, enhancing the quality of the machined surface.
A clapper box is a device used in theatrical productions to create sound effects, typically for simulating thunder or other loud noises. It consists of two wooden boards that are clapped together to produce a sharp, resonant sound. The clapper box can enhance the auditory experience of a performance, adding realism and drama to scenes that require sound effects. Additionally, it can serve as a simple and effective tool in various settings beyond theater, such as in music or education.

A shaper machine typically includes accessories such as a vice for securing workpieces, various types of cutting tools (like single-point cutters), tool holders, and feed mechanisms. The primary function of a shaper machine is to produce flat surfaces, grooves, and contours on metal or other materials by using a reciprocating cutting tool. It can also be used for making keyways and slots. The machine operates by moving the cutting tool back and forth across the workpiece, allowing for precise shaping and finishing.
