Perancangan Mesin Pengurai Sabut Kelapa Berbasiskan Metode Quality Function Deployment (QFD)

Abstract

Generally, coconut farmers in areas of Indragiri Hilir have not exploited waste plantation of coconut in the
form of coir. There is only a small portion of them utilize the coir to be processed further but the processing is
manually or traditionally. Whereas coconut husk if it is processed properly that can increase the economic
value of the coir and also can support the economic community. To overcome these problems, the design of
coconut coir machine is conduced in this research. This design uses the method of Quality Function
Deployment (QFD) as the design basis that aims to get the design parameters in accordance with the wishes of
the community. From the ranking of house of quality (HOQ) which become the main priority in design of this
coconut coir decomposer machine is ergonomic design, with the total value of importance of 159. The second
priority is the tool dimension with the total value of importance of 93.12, And the third priority is the selection
of materials and components supporting the engineers of coconut coir, with a total value of interest 89.75. The
selection of the main material and components are: selection of the decomposer blade, selection of the driving
motor, selection of the pulleys and belts, the selection of the shaft, the choice of bearings, the choice of steel
plate, the selection of the profi L steel.
