Abstract

Now, the automotive, especially in diesel engines, is experiencing a development. The use of diesel engines nowadays is also increasing because the fuel consumption of diesel motorbikes is more efficient when compared to petrol motorbikes. Meanwhile, the disc braking system has become a common choice in motorized vehicles, because when compared to other braking systems. However, the impact of loading on the performance of diesel engines with disc braking systems on motorbikes still requires more in-depth research. The research method used is the test and comparison method, where a diesel motorbike is tested by adding a load in the form of motorcycle braking and comparing fuel between dexlite and diesel. The test results between diesel fuel and dexlite showed that dexlite fuel was better than diesel fuel. The addition of load results in a decrease in engine speed, where the rotation produced by dexlite fuel is greater than diesel fuel, while the torque and power of the engine will increase where the torque and power produced by dexlite fuel is greater than diesel fuel and the ratio between diesel fuel and dexlite shows that dexlite fuel is more efficient than diesel fuel.

Abstract

Friction welding is a metal joining process without melting (solid state process), in which the welding process occurs as a result of combining the rotation rate of one of the workpieces with the compressive force exerted by the rotating workpiece. The friction caused by the meeting of the two workpieces will produce heat which can melt the two ends of the workpiece which are rubbing together so that they are able to melt and finally the joining process occurs. In this study, Continuous Drive Friction Welding (CDFW) was carried out on AISI 304 metal materials. This study aims to determine the effect of double chamfers on the tensile strength and microstructure of AISI 304 friction welding joints. The chamfer angle variations used are 15°, 30°, and 45°. The results of the tensile test show that chamfering can affect the results of the tensile strength. The highest tensile strength value was obtained at a chamfer angle of 30°, namely 454.9Mpa. Meanwhile, the lowest tensile strength value was obtained at the 45° chamfer angle variation, which was 193.5 MPa. The results of the microstructure test show that the chamfer angle has an effect on changes in the microstructure. At all variations of the chamfer angle, the microstructure of the weld area has perlite and ferrite fine grained phases, the HAZ region has perlite and ferrite phases larger and finer grained. Also found in all variations there is porosity. The greatest porosity is found at a chamfer angle of 45°.

Abstract

Welding is joining two or more metal parts by heating the metal until it melts and then adding material (electrode) to fuse like a complete object. The welding process on steel causes the metal around the weld area to experience changes in the thermal cycle, so before welding, providing preheating treatment with temperatures of 100°C, 150°C, and 200°C, then on the surface of the metal and to increase its hardness, a further process is carried out namely the hard facing process.   Hardfacing is a process where a harder material is applied to a parent material through welding. The hard-facing method is carried out by melting the HV-600 electrode wire on a plate until it obtains the desired thickness, resulting in a harder microstructural change on the metal surface. This research aims to determine the effect of preheating temperatures of 100°C, 150°C, and 200°C on the physical and mechanical properties of AISI 1040 steel material which is heat faced with HV – 600 electrodes in the Shield Metal Arch Welding process. The tests carried out in the research for physical properties were microstructure, and for mechanical properties were hardness and wear. The results of microstructure research at preheating temperatures of 100°C, 150°C, and 200°C, the magnitudes are 79.52%, 72.01%, and 68.56% respectively and the hardness values are 79.6 HRC, and 78 HRC respectively. and 75 HRC while the wear values are 0.0000587 m3/kg.m, 0.0000873 m3/kg.m and 0.0000917 m3/kg.m. From the results of this research, the optimum hardness and wear values are hard-facing with the preheating temperature of 100°C.

Abstract

UKM Food Karawang is a small industry engaged in making leather crackers with the main raw material being cowhide. UKM which was founded in 2004 until now produces skin crackers. On this occasion, the author tries to analyse work productivity, effective and efficient use of work tools, because productivity is continuous with the use of simple and not yet representative tools, it is necessary to design work aids to improve productivity in UKM. One way to overcome efforts to increase productivity in UKM is to carry out an analysis of every production process that occurs in UKM. After that, it can be proposed what improvements need to be made to overcome productivity deviations. From the results of research conducted on cracker UKM, there are inefficient production work steps and the use of simple production equipment which can cause inefficiency in the production of skin crackers. A lot of liquid cooking oil was spilled and the cracker seasoning was mixed unevenly during the seasoning process. The potential for inefficiency found in each process at UKM Food Karawang is in the drying process, fur removal and skin cleaning, in the process of taking raw materials, boiling, draining, cutting, frying, packaging, and in the seasoning process. Based on research, the inefficient cracker production process occurs at the stage of the cooking oil draining process and the seasoning mixing process. Things that can cause inefficiency are work tools that are not effective when draining and crackers thatare not mixed evenly during the seasoning process, so it is recommended that companies improve the condition of work tools in order to minimize losses with draining tools in the form of conveyors and spice mixers that are mechanically designed. by paying attention to the dimensions of the work space in the process of frying and powdering crackers.

Abstract

A flying car can fulfill two functions, as a vehicle on the road and as an airplane that capable of flying. To reduce aerodynamic drag, the drive wheels must be able to fold so that a flexible transmission system is required. The Hydrostatic Transmission (HT) system is a flexible transmission that uses a hose to connect hydraulic pump, which is coupled to the engine, to hydraulic motor, which is coupled to the wheel. This research analyzes the specifications of hydrostatic transmission components to optimally transmit power from a V6 engine to two drive wheels through a speed gear transmission system. The hydrostatic transmission system specifications, which include pumps, motors, hoses, charge pumps, and release valves, are simulated and analyzed using Simscape Matlab software. This software enables the user to easily modify the parameters to build an optimal hydrostatic transmission design. The results are obtained, to ensure optimal performance of the entire flying car propulsion system, a 233kW pump and 256 kW motor are required. The hydraulic pump is a variable displacement that has at least 100cc/rev of maximum displacement with 350bar working pressure. The hydraulic motor is fixed displacement that have requirements at least 80 cc/rev of maximum displacement with 350 bar working pressure. The hose used in the flying car hydrostatic transmission has a diameter of 0.02m and is 6m long.
