Controlling Risks Through Ergonomics Participatory In Industry Of Processed Meat Products Certified Halal

The halal certified processed meat industry in Banten province reaches 147 industries spread across eight districts / cities in Banten Province. Evaluation of the HAS-2300 implementation has been carried out periodically, but there are still various weaknesses that result in the company's performance being not optimal. Risk control has also been implemented to anticipate various contaminants and activities that may harm employees, but there are still errors in implementing work procedures. Risk control through participatory ergonomics is needed to find the most critical point in the halal meat processing industry. Respondents in this study were determined based on purposive sampling technique. The results showed that the greatest risk comes from social-technical factors, namely that humans are the main factor at the critical point of materials. Although the process of slaughter has been assisted by the adoption of technology, the existence of humans is not replaced by machines. Animal slaughter techniques are the key to meeting the critical point of meat product

Fabrication of the Ti/SiC Based Composites by Self-Propagating High Temperature Synthesis

Metal matrix composites (MMC) consists of matrix and reinforcement. Aluminium (Al) and titanium (Ti) are mostly used as a matrix, while ceramics like silicon carbide (SiC) play role as a reinforcement where magnesium (Mg) act as wetting agent. Al/Ti alloys often used in the applications of powder-shaped. Nevertheless these materials are very suitable for the processes that are using a simple and novel method called self-propagating high temperature synthesis (SHS). Based on it, some of the advanced materials such as alloys, advanced ceramics and intermetallic compounds have been focused on SHS process. The SHS compacting process is carried out in stages according of the temperatures helping by compacting force applied. Our research work will be focused on the fabrication composites based Ti/SiC by using SHS process. The microstructure of the Ti/SiC based composites was investigated by using optical microscope. The micro-hardness testing device has been used to determine the mechanical properties of Ti/SiC based composites. The relationships between reaction of the Ti and SiC have been investigated to obtain the value of the composite properties and the bond between Ti and SiC. Ti/SiC based composites were obtained with improved properties
