Abstract

Ragapadmi's automobile was modified by the Sevta team so that it could compete in the KMHE race. To increase fuel efficiency, the car's materials and design were altered. In order to decrease excessive friction in the brake system, the caliper bracket needed to be adjusted. Lightweight and simple materials also needed to be used when doing repairs. Therefore, to minimize caliper friction when not braking, a perfect bracket is required. Three different caliper bracket designs were created to create a suitable (strong, light, and precise) bracket that can resist the 569.43 N braking force of the Ragapadmi automobile. Utilizing CAD and CAM tools to simulate strength, the strength of the brackets and materials is tested by creating a CNC toolpath program. The aluminium 6061 material used to make the calliper bracket is robust, lightweight, and precise. Following strength modelling, model 3 provides a mass of 0.099567 kg and a deflection value of 0.084 mm. The caliper bracket was machined in 174.86 minutes using a CNC milling machine, and its roughness value is 0.432µm, or N5 roughness class.

Abstract

Kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan kapasitas pelaku UMKM petis goreng di Sampang dalam memanfaatkan digital marketing sebagai strategi pemasaran produk. Permasalahan utama mitra adalah keterbatasan pengetahuan dan keterampilan dalam pemasaran digital, sehingga produk masih dipasarkan secara konvensional dan memiliki jangkauan terbatas. Pelatihan dilaksanakan dengan metode ceramah interaktif, praktik langsung, serta pendampingan pembuatan akun media sosial dan marketplace. Evaluasi efektivitas kegiatan dilakukan menggunakan instrumen pre-test dan post-test yang diikuti oleh 11 peserta. Hasil pengukuran menunjukkan bahwa rata-rata skor pre-test adalah 1,55 sedangkan rata-rata skor post-test meningkat menjadi 4,08. Uji paired sample t-test menghasilkan nilai t = -15,34 dengan p-value = 2,81 × 10⁻⁸ (< 0,05), yang menunjukkan terdapat perbedaan signifikan antara persepsi sebelum dan sesudah pelatihan. Peningkatan skor ini mencerminkan perubahan persepsi peserta dari kategori rendah menuju kategori sangat positif terhadap digital marketing. Secara teoritis, hasil ini mendukung konsep Diffusion of Innovations yang menekankan pentingnya persepsi dalam adopsi teknologi baru. Implikasi praktisnya, pelatihan ini tidak hanya meningkatkan kesadaran peserta, tetapi juga membuka peluang bagi UMKM petis goreng untuk memperluas jangkauan pasar melalui strategi digital. Kegiatan ini dinilai efektif, meskipun pendampingan lanjutan masih diperlukan agar perubahan persepsi dapat terwujud menjadi perilaku nyata dalam pengelolaan usaha berbasis digital.

Abstract

The present study evaluates the feasibility of non-edible and waste oils as sustainable feedstocks for biodiesel production through a two-step esterification–transesterification process. Waste cooking oil, Calophyllum inophyllum oil, and sunflower oil were employed as raw materials, with sodium hydroxide used as the base catalyst during transesterification. The initial free fatty acid content varied significantly among the feedstocks, ranging from 29.38% in Calophyllum inophyllum oil to 3.20% in waste cooking oil and 1.28% in sunflower oil. Acid-catalyzed esterification effectively reduced the free fatty acid levels, enabling efficient conversion during the subsequent transesterification step. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy confirmed the successful formation of fatty acid methyl esters, indicated by the presence of characteristic ester functional group absorption bands. Methyl oleate is the dominant component in all biodiesel samples, reaching 83.12% in sunflower oil biodiesel. The produced biodiesel exhibited kinematic viscosities of 4.61-5.63 cSt and flash points of 164-175 °C, meeting ASTM D6751 specifications.
