DESAIN PERANCANGAN BELT CONVEYOR UNTUK MENINGKATKAN KEERGONOMIAN PROSES MATERIAL HANDLING

Abstract

The movement of goods with a manual material handling process causes economic inequality in work and has an effect on the health of workers. Therefore an ergonomic lifting device design is needed. To achieve ergonomics, tool designs must be adapted to the anthropometry of company employees. This design aims to produce a lift aircraft design in the form of a conveyor belt at the Kedunglo Air Company as a tool for handling mineral water in an ergonomic, safe and efficient cardboard box. Conveyor belts for Kedunglo Air Safety are designed with a capacity of 9.45 tons / hour and a length of 4.3 m and a maximum tilt  angle The height of the lower end of the conveyor belt frame from the floor using the 5th percentile

is 60 cm and the upper end is 83 cm. The conveyor belt elements in this plan include belts, pulleys, idler rollers, frames and motor drive dynamos.
