Abstract

Alumunium dan Metal merupakan bahan material yang umum digunakan pada industry cetakan dan juga manufaktur sparepart mobil karena sifat materialnya yang padat dan keras. Produk berbahan aluminium sering memiliki masalah dalam proses produksinya yang bisa menimbulkan hal fatal yang lebih besar seperti udara yang terjebak dalam hasil cetakan alumunium, hasil cetakan memiliki ketebalan yang abnormal, dan juga adanya goresan non prediktif pada cetakan. Oleh karena itu, diperlukan penelitian tentang teknik analisa penggunaan cetakan yang baik agar tidak menimbulkan kegagalan cetakan. Penelitian ini di laksanakan secara eksperimen dengan tiga variable yaitu lebar gap, temperature dan jumlah pendinginan. Hasil dari penelitian ini menunjukkan Gap yang kecil dengan jumlah lubang pengingan yang sedikit timbul scratch atas dan bawah dengan temperatur yang paling rendah 670oC sampai temperature yang tinggi 750oC. Seiring dengan peningkatan lebar gap dan jumlah lubang pendinginan maka didapatkan pengurangan scrath. Dengan lebar gap space yang besar 0,3 mm maka scrath hilang meskipun jumlah lubang pendinginan yang sedikit maupun banyak dan temperature rendah sampai tinggi.

Abstract

The chassis is an important component car which functions to support the load on the vehicle and has a strong construction. The chassis, as the main support for all vehicle componentsy. Increased fuel use and rising global crude oil prices have encouraged research into energy saving cars with special designs that can reduce fuel consumption and pollutant emissions. The design process with variations in rollbar shape and variations in cross sectional shape with 6061 aluminum material using Autodesk Inventor 2024 software. After the design process is complete, stress analysis test stage is carried out to obtain analysis data, namely von misses stress, strain, displacement, safety factor. The results of the chassis design using concept B with a pipe cross-sectional shape and rollbar fillet model are more recommended, because it has better von Mises stress value and a better safety factor, besides that the concept B chassis design is easier in the assembly process with prototype type energy efficient car body.

Abstract

In the automotive world, rapid advancements in motorized vehicle technology necessitate consumers to be selective in vehicle choice. This study examines the performance of motorcycles using modified racing rollers versus standard factory rollers. Focusing on a 150cc matic motorcycle, we analyzed power and torque outputs using rollers of different masses (11g, 16g, and standard 15.5g). Field studies and literature reviews were conducted, employing tools like dynotests to measure performance at RPM ranges from 4,700 to 9,500. Results indicate that the 16g roller achieved the highest torque of 12.45 N/m at 6,800 RPM, while the 11g roller attained 12.09 N/m at 67,300 RPM. The standard 15.5g roller reached 12.07 N/m at 76,400 RPM. This research highlights the impact of roller mass on motorcycle performance, providing valuable insights for enhancing vehicle efficiency and consumer choice.
