Pengembangan Alat Sistem Pengecatan Water Transfer Printing Film Untuk Komponen Sepeda Motor Di Laboratorium Pengecatan Dan Perbaikan Bodi Jurusan Teknik Mesin Ft Unesa

Tool Development Of Water Transfer Printing Film System For Motorcycle Components In The Laboratory Of Painting And Repair Body Department Of Engineering Ft. Unesa

Teknologi pengecatan akhir-akhir ini mengalami kemajuan dan perkembangan yang sangat pesat. Salah satu yaitu water transfer printing film dimana proses pengecatannya menggunakan media air. Laboratorium Pengecatan dan Perbaikan Bodi Jurusan Teknik Mesin Unesa belum memiliki alat pengecatan dengan teknologi water transfer printing film sehingga diperlukan media pembelajaran dalam bentuk trainer

Perancangan dilaksanakan di bengkel las yang meliputi 1) menentukan bahan, 2) mendesain alat, 3) proses pengerjaan alat, 4) uji coba alat, 5) penerapan alat pada benda kerja, untuk mengetahui hasil pengecatan menggunakan sistem water transfer printing film yang sudah dikembangkan.

Setelah dilakukan proses pembuatan dan pengujian  diketahui alat bekerja dengan baik dan hasil dari pengecatan pada benda kerja yang memiliki ukuran 12.5 cm²  ditemukan bahwa pattern film ukuran 15.5 cm² dan aktivator sebanyak 4 ml mampu menampilkan hasil visual yang baik pada benda kerja, serta setiap 1x proses pengecetan hanya membutuhkan waktu 1 menit lebih 12 detik.   Hasil ini diharapkan agar bisa memenuhi syarat untuk digunakan dalam media pembelajaran mata kuliah teknik pengecatan dan perbaikan bodi dalam proses pengecatan teknik water printing transfer film.

Painting technology has recently progressed and developed very rapidly. One of them is water transfer printing film where the painting process uses water media. The Body Painting and Repair Laboratory of the Department of Mechanical Engineering Unesa does not have a painting tool with water transfer printing film technology so learning media are needed in the form of trainers

The design is carried out in a welding workshop which includes 1) determining the materials, 2) designing the tools, 3) the process of working the tools, 4) testing the tools, 5) applying the tools to the workpiece, to find out the results of painting using a water transfer printing film system that has been developed .

After the manufacturing and testing process is known the tool works well and the results of painting on a workpiece that has a size of 12.5 cm2 found that the film pattern size of 15.5 cm2 and activator as much as 4 ml is able to display good visual results on the workpiece, and every 1x the painting process it only takes 1 minute over 12 seconds. This result is expected to be able to meet the requirements for use in learning media for body painting and body improvement courses in the process of painting water transfer film printing techniques.
