PEMBUATAN DAN UJI KINERJA MESIN PENGADUK ADONAN GELAMAI UNTUK PENINGKATAN PRODUKSI GELAMAI
ABSTRACT: Gelamai, a
traditional well-known food in Indonesia, was produced through hands of
high-skill workers. Since its production needs about 5 to 6 hours it is need a
reliable machine to assist the mixing process, to reduce the dependence on
labor and also to maintain the homogeneity of production. This research was
conducted to implement gelamai kneading machine since the lack appropriate
technologies in this industry to overcome this problem is by applying the
gelamai mixing machine. The performance test has been done at “NITA” as
industrial partner. Specification of the machine is 120x20x130 cm in
dimensions. Gelamai kneading machine gelamai uses one HP electric motor power
source. Capacity of the machine is 7.26 Kg per hour. With the interest rate of
18% per year it is found that the basic cost is Rp. 2,001 per kilogram.. The
success of this research also spur the development of small industries
especially Gelamai industry in Payakumbuh that can create new jobs for the
community such as the growth of new machine and equipment workshop and Gelamai
home industry.
