Perancangan Panggung Penuangan yang Ergonomis untuk Mengurangi Waste pada Proses Mixing dan Perancangan Wadah Bahan Baku pada PT. Elastis Reka Aktif

Ergonomi dapat didefinisikan sebagai studi tentang aspek-aspek manusia dalam lingkungan kerjanya yang ditinjau secara anatomi, fisiologi, psikologi, engineering, manajemen dan desain atau perancangan. Permasalahan yang dihadapi PT. Elastis Reka Aktif adalah bahan baku terjatuh ke lantai sewaktu dilakukan penuangan ke mesin mixing dan wadah penampungan bahan baku yang ada sekarang tidak dapat membuat bahan baku terhisap semua ke mesin yang menggunakan autoloader berupa vacuum. Permasalahan tersebut dapat terpecahkan dengan menggunakan panggung penuangan untuk melakukan proses penuangan bahan baku dan trolley wadah yang baru sehingga bahan baku dapat terhisap semua ke mesin yang menggunakan autoloader dan juga alat sudah didesain berdasarkan anthropometri masyarakat Indonesia sehingga nyaman dalam menggunakannya. Berdasarkan pemilihan konsep yang sesuai dengan keinginan dari Perusahaan maka terpilih konsep 2 untuk panggung penuangan dan konsep 1 untuk trolley wadah bahan baku. Perbaikan yang dihasilkan oleh panggung penuangan adalah waste yang awalnya 3 kg menjadi 0 kg – 0,5 kg dan untuk wadah bahan baku adalah sisa bahan baku pada wadah yang awalnya 2,1277 kg menjadi 0,69 kg

Design Work Station Of Pipe Welding With Ergonomic Approach

The activity of welding specimens on a big pipe that causes various problems for the body, in this activity the worker is at a risky position such as lifting a pipe weight 90 kg, lifting the specimen and welding the pipe with the specimen and the final process is to lower the pipe that has been connected. The purpose of this study is to design workstation by the principles of ergonomics to help reduce physical worker complaints. The research method in this study was the Nordic Body Map (NBM) questionnaire to determine complaints of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs); the work posture was analyzed by the Rapid Entire Body Assessment (REBA) method. From the results of this study, it can be concluded that the welding work requires a tool in the form of a bench, pipe support, a pulley used at a new welding workstation. With a new workstation, poor work posture can be repaired. With a new work station, there is an efficiency of 8.33 minutes of work time from previous working conditions

Pendekatan Ergonomi Makro sebagai Solusi Perencanaan Sistem Kerja Bergilir untuk Meningkatkan Produktivitas, Kualitas dan Keselamatan Kerja Industri

According to IEA 9International Ergonomics Association), ergonomics or human factors is the scientific discipline concerned with the understanding or interactions among humans and other elements of a system, and the profession that applies theory, principles, data and methods to design in order to optimize human well-being and overall system performance. To achieve effectiveness and productivity, work system designer have to consider not only the technological aspects, but also the relationship between user and system. User satisfaction, comfortabillity, adjustablillity and worker safety, for example, are the most important parameters to be considered in the design processea. There are two ergonomics approach in the job design, i.e., micro ergonomics and macro ergonomics. Micro ergonomics analyzes task-sub task, optimize worker, focused on detail design, and generally physical measure such as length, force, lumens, decibels, time, etc. Macro ergonomics analyzezz group of worker, focused on broad overview and generally organizational and/or subjective measures such as number of people, span of controls, attiudes, morals, shift schedules and sosio-technical design. Shift work is well recognized risk factors for occuptional safety and health. Evaluation and design of working time arrangements gain importance due to economical changes and overall reduction of safety and health problems. The aim of this paper is to review the main factors of ergonomics approach applied on shift work design to improve systems productivity and occupation safety and health
