PENGEMBANGAN TEKNIK REKONDISI TABUNG STORAGE CRYOGENIC UNTUK OPTIMALISASI PROGRAM INSEMINASI BUATAN (ARTIFICIAL INSEMINATION)
Abstract: Karanganyar district
of Central Java as the one of cattle meat production has more than
52,000 ox popullation,
70% cow and
30% ox. However,
the breeders no longer use ox for breeding, meaning that almost 95% of
breeding rely artificial insemination
techniques. Important equipment
and the most easily damaged IB is for cryogenic
storage tank. Important equipment and the most easily damaged IB is for
cryogenic storage tank. Need of liquid nitrogen storage tank reaches 65 unit
with the level of damage to the 14 unit per year, and not
have a workshop
that is capable
of recondition well.
Damage from the main
tube is tube
leak, sponge seal
leak closed, and
the remaining includes the
tube broken neck,
broken canister, hanger
dropouts. The main purpose of these activities is to
develop recondition techniques and the tank so that it
is able to
(1) reduce the
import dependency of the product
tanks, (2) reduce the cost of
artificial insemination, and (3) the self-help insemination by farmer.
Materials research is
a tube container
(cryogenic storage tanks)
that have been damaged which is
then reconditioned. Process improvements were made with surgical
tubing, then determined
the tools used
in the tube
division, describes its components,
danselanjutnya analyzed the
materials used in the
tube. Next, the tube was reconditioned.
The results showed that the main damage on the tube is 30% leaky tube,
50% sponge cover seal
is leaking, and
the remaining 20%
covering broken neck tube,
canister broke, broken
hanger. Based on
the tests, the
results of reconditioning on
tubes showed that the level
of liquid nitrogen leakage will still occur but can be pressed up to the
volume of nitrogen was 60% (period of a month).
