Experimental Study of the Temperature of Ironwood Powder, Rice Husk and 1:1 Mix Fuel on Boiling Time of Water
type: item
description: This study aims to evaluate the efficiency of three types of biomass fuels ironwood powder, rice husks, and a 1:1 mixture of bothin relation to the boiling time of water using a simple biomass stove. The experiment was conducted at the Mechanical Engineering Workshop of Politeknik Negeri Manado with two variations of fuel mass: 500 grams and 800 grams. The primary parameters observed were the maximum temperature and the time required to boil 1 liter of water. The test results showed that ironwood powder had the highest thermal efficiency and was the fastest in boiling water for both fuel masses, with boiling times of 57 minutes (500 g) and 1 hour 40 minutes (800 g), respectively. In contrast, rice husks and the 1:1 mixture were only able to heat the water without reaching the boiling point. Heat calculations based on the conduction heat transfer equation indicated that ironwood powder produced heat of 2.911,68 Watt (500 grams) and 4.665,6 Watt (800 grams) the convectiv heat transfer in the container is 0,253 Watts (for 500 grams) and 0,186 Watt (for 800 grams). These results demonstrate that sawdust is more effective as a biomass fuel compared to rice husks and the 1:1 mixture. This research contributes to the utilization of biomass waste as an efficient alternative energy source, particularly in rural areas.

Analysis of the Effect of Shielded Metal Arc Welding on the Blade of a Plastic Waste Shredding Machine to Determine Hardness Value
type: item
description: This study aims to determine the hardness values of leaf spring steel material after undergoing a welding process using LB 52U electrodes. The specimens were tested using the Rockwell hardness method on the HRC scale in accordance with ASTM E18 standards. The hardness tests were conducted on three distinct areas: the weld metal zone, the heat-affected zone (HAZ), and the base metal (unwelded area), with five measurement points in each area. The results showed that the highest hardness was found in the base metal area, with an average of 81,78 HRC, while the weld metal area exhibited the lowest hardness, averaging 55,97 HRC. The HAZ displayed intermediate hardness values, averaging 72,82 HRC. The differences in hardness are attributed to microstructural changes caused by thermal effects during the welding process. These findings indicate that welding significantly affects the mechanical properties of the material, especially around the welded joint. This research can serve as a reference for selecting appropriate welding parameters to maintain optimal material performance.

type: item
description: The use of composition in coconut fiber and latex as binders is an influential factor in the process of making coconut fiber sheets or cocosheets. Therefore, this study was conducted to improve the quality of coconut husk sheets produced by this machine. Specifically, this study focuses on determining the appropriate and optimal composition or ratio of coconut husk and latex in the production of coconut husk sheets using three different composition ratios to identify the optimal results of the sheets produced. In this study, literature review, observation/monitoring, and experimentation methods were used to analyze the data that will be used in the process of producing coconut husk sheets using three composition ratios. The coconut husk sheets produced from the first composition test used a ratio of 5% coconut husk and 95% latex, where the coconut husk composition weighed 138 g and the liquid latex amounted to 144 ml, which then underwent a flattening process using a roll machine with a 5 mm gap and a roll rotation speed of 48 r/min, resulting in coconut husk sheets with a uniform thickness of 5 mm, but the density produced exhibited gaps between the coconut husk fibers. In the second composition test using a ratio of 10% coconut husk and 90% latex, where the coconut husk composition weighed 275 g and the liquid latex weighed 272 ml, which then underwent a flattening process using a roll machine with a 5 mm gap and a roll speed of 48 r/min, resulting in a flat coconut husk sheet with a thickness of 5 mm and density that did not exhibit gaps between the coconut husk fibers. In the third composition test using a ratio of 15% coconut husk and 85% latex, where the amount of coconut husk composition was 413 g and the amount of liquid latex was 386 ml, which then underwent a flattening process using a roll machine with a 5 mm gap and a roll speed of 48 r/min, producing a flat coconut husk sheet with a thickness of 10 mm and a density that did not experience gaps between t…

type: item
description: Plastic waste, which is difficult to degrade, requires effective management solutions, one of which is recycling using a sheet press machine. The quality of the produced plastic sheets is strongly influenced by process parameters, particularly temperature and heating time. This study aims to analyze the effect of temperature and heating time variations on the sheet press machine toward the hardness of recycled polypropylene (PP) and high-density polyethylene (HDPE) plastics. The research was conducted experimentally using a quantitative approach at the Materials Testing Laboratory of Politeknik Negeri Manado. The temperature variations used were 165°C, 170°C, and 180°C for HDPE, and 170°C, 185°C, and 195°C for PP, with heating times ranging from 150 to 200 minutes. Hardness values were measured using the Rockwell M scale method in accordance with ASTM D785 standards, with five repetitions for each specimen. The results showed that PP achieved the highest hardness value of 17.13 HRM at 195°C/200 minutes, while HDPE reached its maximum hardness of 15.4 HRM at 165°C/150 minutes. Increasing temperature and heating time tended to increase PP hardness but reduced HDPE hardness due to thermal degradation. These findings can serve as a reference for optimizing the plastic recycling process to produce products with better mechanical properties.

description: This study was conducted to evaluate the performance of a tractor modified with a combinable plow blade system for dry land cultivation. Dry land typically has dense soil characteristics, which are difficult to loosen using conventional plows. Therefore, this research designed a flexible combinable plow blade system that can adapt to various soil conditions, aiming to improve the tractor's working efficiency and the quality of soil cultivation. The testing was carried out on three different types of land, each measuring 100 m², by observing the parameters of processing time and fuel consumption. The results showed that the first plot, with loose soil structure, had an average processing time of 19,43 minutes and fuel consumption of 201 ml. The second plot required an average time of 21,72 minutes and 206 ml of fuel, while the third plot took an average of 24,43 minutes with 214 ml of fuel consumption. These differences indicate that soil conditions significantly affect the efficiency of the equipment. In conclusion, the combinable plow blade system demonstrated good performance and greater flexibility in handling variations in dry land conditions. This tool is capable of accelerating the soil loosening process and saving fuel, especially when the land is cleared beforehand. These findings offer a practical solution for farmers to enhance productivity and land cultivation efficiency.

Experimental Study of Instrumentation and Control Devices on Water Level for On Off with Programmable Logic Controller (PLC)
type: item
description: Liquid level control is an important factor in various industrial processes such as water treatment, chemical, pharmaceutical, and manufacturing to ensure efficiency, safety, and product quality. One commonly used technology is the Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) due to its flexibility, reliability, and ease of integration with automation systems. This research aims to design, build, and test a PLC-based liquid level control and instrumentation tool with an on-off control method using electrode sensors. The research process includes literature study, system design, component selection, assembly, PLC programming using ladder diagrams, and system performance testing. The developed device consists of a main tank, a pump, electrode sensors at three points (high, medium, low), a PLC input-output circuit, and a relay driver. The testing was carried out in two stages: first, direct sensor testing without a PLC to determine accuracy and response time; second, integrated system testing to evaluate automatic control performance. The results show that the electrode sensor is able to detect liquid levels with 100% accuracy in clean water with a response time of less than 1 second. The integrated system with PLC works according to the programmed on-off logic, is able to maintain the liquid level at the desired limit without manual intervention, and operates stably in repeated tests without sensor reading errors or control failures. The conclusion of this study is that the PLC-based liquid level instrumentation and control system with electrode sensors is proven to be effective, responsive, and reliable, and has the potential to be applied to small to medium-scale industries with minimal modifications, and can be further developed for more complex controls such as Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) or integration with Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA).
