Development Of Cutting Tools Design Simplicia Turmeric By Using TRIZ Method
Abstract: To increase the
production of simplicia, has been designed and fabricated rhizome cutting tools
with 5 parallel blades. Based on testing, there were still weaknesses known in
the knife-blade thus inhibiting the cutting process. At the beginning of the
research showed that the bottleneck caused by the cutting blade is too thick to
be a narrow gap between the blade and the friction becomes large rhizome
pieces. Thinning of the blade is not necessarily done because it will weaken
the blades. This research aims to provide design solutions that is able to
overcome a problem of the blade is. To obtain a solution to the existing
contradiction problems, TRIZ method was used. The first step taken is
identification the problem include the study of literature and direct
observations of turmeric rhizome cutting tools. Then followed by determining
technical requirements of design, resolve problems that occur contradiction,
the last is preparation of design concept and the determination of the design
specifications. The results of this research is produce design concept and
resolve most issues contradictions mainly on cutting blades. By using TRIZ
method, the design of cutting blades not occurring deflection, because the
shape of blade was thin and there was additional features that serve to
regulate the tension of cutting blades.
