Abstract

MIG (Metal Inert Gas) welding is a welding process that uses rolled electrodes which are the same as the base metal and uses a protective gas.  Aluminum is one of the most commonly used metals in the industrial world. Connecting aluminum by welding is a challenge in itself because of its high heat conductivity. This is why a lot of research has been carried out on welding aluminum. This research aims to investigate the effect of travel speed on the tensile strength and macro structure of welds from the robotic welding process. The research was carried out using experimental methods and observing the macro structure of the fracture results. The research results, it was found that changes in welding speed (travel speed) in the aluminum MIG welding process showed a decreasing trend in maximum tensile strength. The highest tensile strength was obtained at the TS variation of 40 mm/minute, while at TS 70 mm/minute the tensile strength was lower. The higher the welding speed, the lower the resulting tensile strength. This is due to reduced heat applied which affects weld penetration and metal joining. A lower welding speed results in better penetration and higher tensile strength, but a speed that is too slow can cause overheating and damage the metal micro structure. The macro structure of the fracture, it was found that higher welding speeds cause fractures that tend to be brittle with defects such as porosity, which can also reduce tensile strength

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of mineral, semi-synthetic, and full-synthetic engine oils on temperature rise in a 125cc four-stroke motorcycle engine. A quantitative experimental method was applied using three lubricants: AHM MPX 1 (mineral), Mobil Super Moto (semi-synthetic), and AHM SPX 1 (full-synthetic). Tests were conducted on a Honda Supra X 125cc KPH-type engine running at 2000 rpm for 5 minutes from an initial temperature of 40°C. Temperature was measured using a Habotest HT-9829 digital infrared thermometer, while engine speed was monitored with a digital tachometer. One-way ANOVA analysis produced an F-value of 50.293 and a p-value of 0.000 (p < 0.05), indicating significant differences among oil types. The full-synthetic oil yielded the lowest average temperature rise (37.6°C), followed by semi-synthetic (40.5°C) and mineral oil (42.5°C). The results show that lubricant type affects thermal stability, with full-synthetic oil providing superior temperature control.

Abstract

This research analyzes the aerodynamic characteristics of the VU-EV electric vehicle using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulation. The study evaluates airflow patterns, pressure distribution, and wake formation at three speeds (20 km/h, 25 km/h, and 30 km/h), aiming to enhance the aerodynamic efficiency and performance of a six-passenger electric golf car equipped with solar panels.The simulation results indicate that higher speeds result in more turbulent airflow, greater pressure differentials between the front and rear, and increased aerodynamic drag. For future studies, improvements in body design—especially at the rear—and the addition of aerodynamic devices are recommended to minimize drag, alongside experimental validation to ensure simulation accuracy and wider applicability for the development of sustainable vehicles.

Abstract

The use of metal or steel in a variety of applications has begun to be replaced by Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP). Some of the advantages of CFRP include mechanical strength almost equal to, and sometimes exceeding, that of metal materials. One innovation in the manufacture of carbon fibre composites is the vacuum infusion method. Resin is drawn into the mould under suction pressure from a vacuum pump. Excess resin is drained from the mould through a hose and collected in a container, which also serves to control the vacuum pressure in the mould before it enters the pump. Previously, the catchpot was made of square-shaped iron with permanently welded joints, resulting in unstable suction pressure. Additionally, the resin's fast curing properties made cleaning difficult, leading to blockages in the hose over time. These issues highlight the need for a vacuum infusion design that is easy to open and close, easy to control and leak-proof. In this study, a research and development (R&D) approach was taken. The design process for the Cylinder Catchpot Vacuum Infusion begins with the design, calculation, and design stages, and ends with functional testing. The design process takes into account dimensions and the motor power required to use ¼HP for a 1-liter catchpot. The component is manufactured through the manufacturing stage and undergoes functional testing, where the Cylinder Catchpot Vacuum Infusion tool detects no leaks in the circuit, ensuring stable pressure, and ensuring proper resin distribution throughout the fibers, ensuring no voids in the composite

Abstract

Bearing failure is one of the main causes of operational disruptions in mechanical systems due to the lack of continuous condition monitoring. Early detection of vibration and temperature increases is essential to prevent downtime and reduce maintenance costs. This study aims to design and develop a bearing condition monitoring prototype based on the Internet of Things (IoT) using the Research and Development (R&D) approach. The system employs an Arduino Uno and NodeMCU ESP8266 as the main controllers, a piezoelectric sensor to detect vibration, and an MLX90614 infrared sensor to measure the bearing surface temperature. The measured data are transmitted in real time to the ThingSpeak platform for remote visualization and analysis. Experimental testing over three hours showed an average vibration of 7.25 Hz and an average temperature of 35.87 °C, where the condition indicators on the LED and LCD operated according to the predefined thresholds. The system successfully provided early warnings of potential bearing failure through continuous parameter monitoring. The novelty of this research lies in the integration of low-cost multi-sensor technology with the ThingSpeak platform for real-time, end-to-end bearing condition monitoring, supporting the concept of predictive maintenance.
