Abstract

Industrial developments, especially in the manufacturing and construction sectors, recognize L-hanger ducting as a critical component in HVAC (heating ventilation and air conditioning) ducting systems, which play a role in supporting and stabilizing air ducts. The L-Hanger ducting manufacturing process involves a series of stages, such as shearing, blanking, piercing, trimming, and bending processes. This research focuses on the design and simulation of dies and punches for piercing, blanking, and bending processes using 1.6 mm-thick SPCC-SD material. The aim of this research is to design and analyze progressive dies in order to increase the efficiency of the production process. A comprehensive calculation of the forces involved in the shearing, blanking, piercing, trimming, and bending processes is required in order to predict press machine tonnage requirements to support the production process. This research applies theoretical and numerical validation approaches. Theoretical analysis is used to calculate the overall forces, which are then compared with numerical results and verified through an experimental approach. By understanding and optimizing the design of progressive dies, it is hoped that we can increase the production efficiency of L-hanger Ducting and expand knowledge in the field of metal forming, contributing to the metal forming industry and supporting the development of science.

Abstract

The results of an experiment that used an orthogonal Taguchi method to improve shielded metal arc welding (SMAW) were given. The SMAW method was used to join dissimilar metal of SPHC and St. 30. SPHC material has a low carbon steel content, while St. 30C steels contain a medium amount of carbon steel, which is used for tractor shaft axles. Carbon percentages vary slightly between the two substances. This study aimed to achieve the highest possible quality of tensile strength by utilizing the specified SMAW parameters. SPHC material has a low carbon content, whereas St. 30 steel has a moderate carbon content. This study used the Taguchi experimental method with three input variables and three experimental levels. The SNR ratio is used to evaluate the most optimal SMAW performance. ANOVA analysis is used to evaluate the most crucial parameters in determining the response variable. This research has successfully provided input on the combination of SPHC and St. 30C for SMEs. It operates effectively with a welding current of 133 A, a welding voltage of 9 V, and a filler diameter of 2.0 mm. The S/N ratio analysis found that the welding current, voltage, and filler diameter all had a significant impact on the outcome.

Abstract

The use of press machines in stamping is an important aspect of the manufacturing industry, especially in producing efficient and quality components. This article aims to analyze the cost of the stamping process using mild steel SPCC-SD material measuring 200 mm x 25 mm x 0.8 mm, using two types of press machines, namely 80 tons and 40 tons. Through the cost analysis method, the total cost of the stamping process for the 80-ton press machine is Rp 16,417.4 per 10 pcs, while for the 40-ton press machine, it is Rp 15,028.5, indicating the cost efficiency of the 40-ton press machine is around 8.5%. The tonnage calculation shows that the 40-ton press machine is adequate for the blanking process, with a tonnage requirement of 4 tons, far below the available capacity. These results provide recommendations for the use of 40-ton press machines in the production of steel components on a small to medium scale, considering cost efficiency and optimal performance. This work is expected to increase productivity and cost efficiency in the manufacturing industry, especially at PT GA.

Abstract

A wind turbine power plant (WTPP) is a renewable energy system that harnesses wind energy to generate electricity. Indonesia has been identified as a region with considerable wind energy potential, making it a promising location for developing this technology. In alignment with this potential, the Indonesian government has set a target of approximately 7 GW of installed wind turbine capacity by 2030. This study examines the influence of blade angle on the efficiency of electrical energy generation. Three blade angle variations—20°, 30°, and 40°—were analyzed using an experimental setup featuring a horizontal-axis wind turbine with five blades and a constant wind speed of 6.2 m/s. The rotation of the blades converts wind energy into kinetic energy, which is subsequently transferred to a generator to produce electricity. Experimental investigations were conducted using a laboratory-scale prototype, revealing that a blade angle of 40° achieved the highest efficiency. Specifically, the turbine exhibited an efficiency of approximately 29% after 3 minutes of rotation, which increased to 42% after 8 minutes. These findings highlight the pivotal role of blade angle optimization in enhancing WTPP performance. Moreover, this study provides a valuable reference for advancing wind energy applications in Indonesia, supporting the transition towards more sustainable and efficient renewable energy solutions.

Abstract

The development of electric vehicles (EV) represents a strategic approach to reducing carbon emissions and decreasing reliance on fossil fuels. This study analyzes the driving range of electric vehicles at the University of Mataram using regression techniques to examine the relationship between vehicle load, energy consumption, and range efficiency. Field tests were conducted under various vehicle load conditions (120.5 kg, 130.5 kg, and 140.5 kg) and gear ratio variations. A linear regression analysis was applied to determine the influence of independent variables (vehicle load and gear ratio) on the dependent variables (energy consumption and driving range). The results indicate a positive correlation between vehicle load and energy consumption, alongside a negative correlation with driving range. Specifically, at a load of 120.5 kg, energy consumption was recorded at 29.29 Wh/km, achieving a maximum range efficiency of 82.82 km per kWh. In contrast, at 140.5 kg, energy consumption increased to 44.00 Wh/km, while range efficiency declined to 54.56 km per kWh. Additionally, gear ratio variations significantly affected vehicle performance, with a gear ratio of 10.29 yielding the highest range efficiency of 112.55 km per kWh, whereas a gear ratio of 6.43 exhibited lower efficiency. These findings emphasize the critical role of vehicle load management and optimal gear ratio selection in enhancing energy efficiency. The study provides valuable insights for the design and development of more efficient and sustainable electric vehicles, contributing to advancements in EV technology.

Abstract

The poultry industry plays a crucial role in meeting the growing global demand for meat. However, the feather plucking process remains a significant challenge, particularly for small-scale poultry farmers who often rely on manual methods that are time-consuming, labor-intensive, and potentially unhygienic. This study aimed to design and construct an affordable and efficient poultry feather plucking machine with a 2 kg processing capacity. The machine was designed using 3D modeling software and constructed using plastic materials for the bucket and rotating disc, and steel for the electric motor mount. The use of plastic components aimed to reduce production costs while maintaining efficiency and minimizing the risk of damage to poultry skin during the plucking process. Functional tests were conducted to evaluate the machine's performance, revealing an average processing time of 28 s per bird, a 30% reduction compared to manual plucking. The machine's efficiency was also assessed, demonstrating a 30% improvement over manual methods. The total production cost of the machine was Rp. 450,000, which is more economical than previous studies. Although the developed machine showed promising results, further study is needed to explore additional parameters such as energy consumption, maintenance requirements, and long-term durability. The incorporation of machine learning algorithms for automated cycle time optimization based on different poultry sizes and feather densities could also be investigated in future studies. Overall, this study contributes to the development of affordable and efficient poultry feather plucking machines, which can benefit small-scale poultry farmers and improve the overall efficiency of the poultry industry.

Abstract

Nowadays, researchers focus on developing catalytic converters based on activated carbon (AC) from organic waste to address environmental concerns. This study presents a preliminary investigation into the application of catalytic converters through the synthesis of AC from coconut shells, with optimization achieved through the implementation of fuzzy logic to ascertain the optimal properties of the AC, specifically the activation temperature. The fuzzy logic approach has determined that the optimal activation temperature is 950 °C. The effectiveness of this approach is substantiated by the successful synthesis of AC, as evidenced by XRD, FTIR, and SEM-EDX analysis. The findings indicate that fuzzy logic provides the most accurate activation temperature information, significantly impacting the AC structure. The resulting yield and bulk density values were 26.29% and 0.519 g/ml, respectively. Proximate analysis indicates that the ash content (4.332%), moisture (7.211%), and volatile matter (16.321%) achieve an FCC of 72.136%. The iodine number is a crucial parameter in evaluating the potential application of AC for the catalytic converter. The results demonstrated that the adsorption performance is achieved in 613 mg/g. In conclusion, the AC produced shows considerable potential for use as a catalytic converter. This assertion is substantiated by the successful evaluation of its efficacy in reducing CO and HC, respectively, by approximately 86.04% and 56.79%. To confirm the suitability of the catalytic converter for the vehicle. A series of dynamometer tests were conducted to verify the catalytic converter's performance. The ensuing test results exhibited a decline in torque and power values, yet these measurements remained within acceptable parameters for typical daily utilization.

Abstract

This investigation focuses on optimizing the sinker electrical discharge machining (sinker-EDM) process parameters for high tensile strength steel (HTSS), specifically SKD-11, utilizing Box-Behnken Response Surface Methodology (BB-RSM). Sinker-EDM is a commonly used technique in manufacturing moulds, dies, and components for sectors like automotive and aerospace. This process eliminates direct contact between the electrode and the workpiece. However, its low material removal rate (MRR) constrains productivity. This research endeavours to enhance MRR by employing rectangular graphite electrodes. The Box-Behnken Response Surface Methodology (BB-RSM) was utilized to evaluate the effects of pulse current, spark-on time, and gap voltage on MRR. The optimal MRR of 45.49 mm³/min was attained at a pulse current of 16 A, spark-on time of 400 µs, and gap voltage of 45 V. ANOVA revealed that pulse current and spark-on time significantly influenced MRR. In contrast, gap voltage had an insignificant impact. Interaction and surface plot analyses confirmed that high pulse current and extended spark-on time resulted in the maximum MRR. These findings provide valuable insights for optimizing the sinker-EDM process for SHTSS, contributing to enhanced productivity and efficiency in manufacturing.

Abstract

This study investigates the optimization of tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding parameters for joining dissimilar metals, specifically ST37 low-carbon steel and SUS 304 stainless steel, using the Taguchi L9 experimental design. The welding parameters evaluated include welding current (45-65 A), tungsten electrode diameter (1.6-2.4 mm), and shielding gas flow rate (12-18 LPM). The aim is to enhance joint integrity and mechanical properties by systematically analyzing the influence of these parameters on hardness and tensile load (TS loads). Hardness testing revealed that the weld zone exhibited the highest hardness, followed by the heat-affected zone and base metal. Tensile testing showed that the highest TS loads of 341 kgf were achieved at 45 A, 1.6 mm electrode diameter, and 12 LPM gas flow rate. Signal-to-noise ratio analysis and analysis of variance (ANOVA) indicated that welding current had the most significant influence on hardness and TS loads, with contributions of 39% and 41.27%, respectively, followed by electrode diameter (17% and 36.42%). In comparison, the gas flow rate had the least impact (45% and 22.31%). However, ANOVA results showed that none of the factors exhibited statistical significance (P > 0.05). The findings contribute to the field of welding engineering by providing optimized TIG welding parameters for ST37-SUS 304 joints, enhancing their reliability in various industrial applications such as automotive manufacturing, oil and gas, and power generation, where durable and corrosion-resistant welds are crucial.
