Introduction
Background
PT. Federal Nittan Industries (PT. FNI) is a
company engaged in the manufacturing of engine
valve automotive components. Products of PT.
Federal Nittan Industries are shown in Figure I-1.
PT. Federal Nittan Industries is a joint venture
company between Nittan Valve Co., Ltd. Japan and
PT. Astra Otoparts, which was established since July
1, 1995. PT. Federal Nittan Industries occupied a
new factory located at Jalan Halmahera-9 Block DD,
MM 2100 Industrial Estate, Cikarang Barat, Bekasi
17520 in 2009. The process of engine valves
manufacturing generally consists of forgings,
stellite, heat treatment and machining.
Some customers of PT. Federal Nittan
Industries are, Daihatsu, Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki,
and Hino. Increased sales of motor vehicles resulted
in increased demand for engine valve production
from customers. Referring to this, PT. Federal Nittan
Industries doing improvement on some machines.
One improvement is the engine which manufacture
snap gauge. Snap gauge is used for valve engine
dimensional inspection process which includes
examination of head, seat, keeper groove, and
carbon. Improvement would be done was on the
loaderoutput which was too short and created
difficulties for operators. In addition, too low
position of loader also affected the operators safety
and ergonomic levels in terms of spine health that
have long-term consequences. Turning to the
morality consequences, it reduced operator working
enthusiasm because in the process of valve engine
withdrawal operators must bend over or even squat.
Limitation of Research
The final project was limited by several
things, namely:

Objectives
The objectives of this final project were:
1. To improve operatorsproductivity of
machining C Line 6.
2. To improve ergonomics and safety in
withdrawing the part process engine valve after
the process of snap gauge.
3. To facilitate snap gauge operators works in
withdrawing the part process engine valve after
the process of snap gauge.
1.5 Benefits
The benefits of conducting this final project,
namely:
1. Increased the productivity due to the
withdrawal and putting back the part process of
valve engine becomes more efficient.
2. Increased safety and ergonomics for operators
when withdrawing and putting back part
process engine valve.
3. Reduced spare parts waste and spare parts
purchasing costs because in making of the
device was utilized used spare parts.

Theoretical basis
2.1
Ergonomics
The definition of ergonomics in
Wignjosoebroto Sritomos book is: ergonomics
(English) actually comes from the Greek words of
Ergo which means work and Nomos which means
legal. Thus ergonomics is intended as a scientific
discipline that studies the human being in relation to
work. Ergonomics discipline in particular learns the
limitations of human ability to interact with
technology and products they make. This discipline
comes from the fact that human beings have
capability limits of both short term and long term
when dealing with environmental circumstances of
their system works in the form of hardware
(machinery, equipment, etc.) and software (working
methods, systems and procedures, etc.). Thus it is
clear that ergonomics is multi-disciplinary science,
because it learns knowledge from biological
(medicine, biology), psychological (psychology)
and society (sociology) sciences.
2.2
Snap Gauge
Snap gauge is a gauge or a measuring
device that is often used in the manufacturing
industry, especially the PT. Federal Nittan
Industries. Gauge is used for measuring the outside
dimensions of an object. This gauge framework is U
shaped and has the jaw with a measuring surface.
Snap gauge there is a fitting type (GO) and not
fitting type (NO GO). Figure II-1 shows a snap
gauge measuring instrument.
Loader
Loader is an entry or exit lane for the
engine valve to be processed in a machine or have
gone through a process to eventually be forwarded
to the next process. In figure II-2 loader output is
used in industry, especially at PT. Federal Nittan
Industries.
Control System
The control system can be viewed as a
system in which an input or some specific inputs are
used to control the output at a specific value. A
control system can control various aspects such as
controlling a variable to obtain the desired value,
controls the sequence of events / processes and
control whether an event occurred or not. Basically
the control system used to control the sequence of
events. A control system consisting of input, the
control element / control and output. The basic
working principle of a control system can be called
a causal relationship between the input and output
components. The presence of an input signal makes
the system processes the signal so as provide the
system output. Simply, the basic working principle
of the control system shown in Figure II-3:

Problems occured
In the previous figure it has been described
that inprovement was done in the unloading or outlet
chute. On the current condition, the height of loader
on each line particular line 6 on the snap gauge was
too low. Before doing this improvement, the author
first conducted interviews with several operators in
the area of machining line 6, three people in three
shifts. Of the three operators who were interviewed,
they claimed that the low height of loader had caused
the decreasing performance of operators within one
working shift. Figure III-2 shows the loader and the
height of loader which was too low in average of
each line.

Specifications required
In the development of automatic loader
output the mechanical development, control systems
and PLC program must be tailored to the needs of
the field or work area. The specs are as follows:

Evaluation after Device Development
4.6.1
Loader Height
After the development of automatic loader output,
the height of loader output increased, from the
previous height of 40cm and added with 25cm, the
height of the current strokecylinder is 65cm. Change
in height can be seen in Figure IV-3.
5.2
Suggestions
The development of the automatic loader
output is not yet ideal in its height increased, with
the ideal height should be 80cm or 40cm of
additional height, but because of the limited
pneumatic cylinders spare part it only can be added
for 25cm. Expectations after the development of this
device is the improvement made to add the height of
automatic loader output to be ideal and to facilitate
operators in the work.
