Abstract

Bearing adalah salah satu komponen  penting yang di pergunakan pada motor penggerak untuk mendukung industri menengah seperti bengkel-bengkel service sepeda motor yang banyak digunakan pada motor-motor induksi dan juga roda, bearing juga dibutuhkan pada industri skala Besar, hanya saja pemakaian bearing rentan lebih cepat rusak dibanding bearing dengan sistem pelumasan, sehingga jangka waktu pemakaian  perlu dibuat jadwal penggantian permanen sehingga penggantian kuantiti bearing pun semakin terjadwal, akan tetapi pada kenyataan nya penggantian bearing saat ini masih dilakukan dengan cara manual yaitu  dengan cara di ketok agar bearing bisa masuk ke shaft atau rumah bearing sehingga berpotensi kerusakan pada bearing pada saat dipasang, dan berdampak pada waktu life time yang lebih singkat, Untuk itu penelitian disini merancang alat pemuai bearing dengan system pengkonversian laju arus listrik yang dialirkan menjadi energi panas dimana desain alat memuat 2 buah bearing dengan perencanaan pemakaian dinding material menggunakan acrylik dengan ketebalan 5 mm  dan mampu melepaskan panas  sebesar 150°  serta meneyerap panas sebesar 180° dan panas yang keluar dari alat pemuai sebesar 85°. Dimana hasil pengujian pada bearing type Enzo 695Z diameter dalam 5 mm dan diameter luar 13mm mampu memuai hingga ada penambahan 0,2 mm sedangkan Biaya Listrik per Jam     = Rp. 249,6/Jam dimana waktu yang dibutuhkan untuk memuaikan 2 (dua) bearing kurang lebih 30 menit.

Abstract

Pada suatu unit alat berat HM 400 -1 terdapat beberapa sistem, salah satunya adalah sistem bahan bakar CRI yang merupakan sistem injeksi bahan bakar ke dalam ruang bakar dengan sistem pembangkit tekanan yang terpisah dari injektor itu sendiri. Sistem CRI bekerja berdasarkan beberapa sensor yang terdapat pada mesin kemudian memberikan sinyal ke ECM sehingga dapat mengetahui kapan injektor membutuhkan bahan bakar untuk bahan bakar. Bahan bakar pada sistem CRI dialirkan menggunakan pompa bahan bakar melalui PCV kemudian menuju common rail, disini tekanan diatur oleh sensor bahan bakar common rail kemudian dialirkan menuju injektor melalui katup peredam aliran. Sistem CRI harus diperiksa dan dipelihara secara berkala agar tidak terjadi masalah pada sistem ini. Salah satu kerusakan yang dapat terjadi pada sistem CRI adalah kegagalan mesin yang disebabkan oleh rusaknya sensor common rail, dalam hal ini sensor common rail selalu membaca adanya tekanan tinggi pada common rail sehingga sensor common rail memberikan sinyal. ke ECM yang kemudian diteruskan ke katup PCV untuk menyediakan. Persediaan bahan bakar dalam jumlah sedikit mengakibatkan kebutuhan bahan bakar untuk pembakaran tidak terpenuhi. Setelah dilakukan pemeriksaan dan pengukuran maka dapat disimpulkan bahwa kerusakan yang terjadi pada sensor common rail disebabkan karena umur komponen tersebut karena unit sudah mempunyai jam kerja operasional selama 13.376 jam yang mengakibatkan terjadinya diafragma pada common rail. sensor rel tidak dapat kembali ke posisi normal.Kata Kunci : CRI, sistem bahan bakar, sinyal ke ECM.

Abstract

Educational transformation driven by Indonesia’s Merdeka Curriculum has shifted higher education toward more inclusive and learner-centered pedagogies. Within this reform agenda, differentiated learning (DL) has emerged as a key approach to address variations in students’ abilities, interests, and learning profiles. Nevertheless, empirical evidence on the application of DL in English for Specific Purposes (ESP) instruction at the tertiary level, particularly within engineering programs, remains limited. This study investigates engineering students’ perceptions of differentiated learning and examines its relationship with learner engagement and perceived ESP learning effectiveness. Participants were 68 first-year Mechanical Engineering students who completed a 30-item Likert-scale questionnaire adapted from established DL and ESP frameworks. The instrument demonstrated high internal reliability (Cronbach’s α = 0.86). Data were analyzed using descriptive and correlational statistics with SPSS 26. Findings reveal that students reported highly positive perceptions of differentiated learning (M = 4.21, SD = 0.43), with significant positive correlations between DL and engagement (r = 0.63, p < 0.05) and between DL and perceived learning effectiveness (r = 0.59, p < 0.05). These results suggest that differentiated learning promotes inclusivity, motivation, and disciplinary relevance in ESP contexts. The study provides empirical support for differentiated learning as a pedagogical framework linking language learning with professional competence, offering insights for curriculum design, teacher development, and higher education policy committed to responsive and personalized learning. Keywords: Differentiated instruction, English for Specific Purposes (ESP), Students’ perceptions, Engineering students.

Abstract

English for Specific Purposes (ESP) is an English language teaching approach designed to address the specific needs of particular disciplines, including Informatics Engineering. This study aimed to design and develop a website-based English learning platform for Informatics Engineering students. The research employed a Research and Development (R&D) method consisting of needs analysis, system design, website development, testing, and evaluation. Data were collected through interviews with students and industry practitioners to identify learning needs and validate the developed platform. The resulting website provides learning materials related to technical vocabulary, reading comprehension, listening exercises, and professional communication in the field of Informatics Engineering. The needs analysis indicated that students required discipline-specific vocabulary, flexible learning access, and interactive feedback to support independent learning. Functional testing confirmed that all major features of the platform operated as intended, while expert evaluation indicated that the learning content was accurate, relevant, and suitable for the target users. The evaluation results demonstrate that the developed platform effectively supports English learning by connecting academic materials with workplace communication needs. Therefore, the website-based learning platform is a feasible supplementary learning medium for improving English competence among Informatics Engineering students and enhancing their readiness for future academic and professional environments.
