Pengembangan Meja Potong Kain dengan Metode Reverse Engineering di UKM Pembuatan Cadar Al-Kubro di Desa Temboro

Al Qubro is one of Small Medium Enterprise (SME) "niqab" production in Temboro village. Several processes must be done to produce fabric becomes ready to wear a niqab. In the overlay process before the cutting process must be handled by two people. In this process, only skilled and experienced people who can handle it because the cutting process is the key to the best result of the product. Therefore the industries look forward to getting a solution to make this process can be handled by one person only and with more effective time. Base on the problem, this research was done to make or develop the design of a fabric cutting board to make the cutting process more effective and efficient. The developing of this cutting board was by using a reverse engineering method. This method observed the advantages and disadvantages of the conventional cutting board. Furthermore, it was compared with the advantages and disadvantages of the new cutting board. Based on the research on the redesign of the fabric cutting board in Al Qubro SME by reverse engineering method, the new design of fabric cutting board is suitable with the factory needs. Furthermore, from the comparison analysis, the new cutting board needs 14,6 minutes in one round of the cutting process. Otherwise, the conventional cutting boards need 26,7 minutes in one round of the cutting process. Moreover, the new design cutting boards need one handler only, whereas the conventional one needs two people. Keywords: Cutting Board, Reverse Engineering, Benchmarkin
