RANCANG BANGUN ALAT PENENUN SERAT SAWIT -KEVLAR
Keywords:
kevlar, palm fiber, VDI 2222 design, weaving deviceAbstract
The manual weaving process for composite materials combining natural fibers (palm fibers) and synthetic fibers (Kevlar) faces significant challenges in maintaining yarn tension stability and weave density due to the differing mechanical characteristics of the two materials. To date, the production of such composite weaves has been carried out manually without specialized equipment, resulting in inconsistent quality. This research aims to design and construct a manual weaving device optimized for producing palm fiber-Kevlar composites, ensuring an orderly yarn arrangement and good weave density. The design methodology follows the VDI 2222 standard, encompassing the planning, conceptualization, design, and finalization (fabrication) stages. The device is constructed using hollow steel sections, with key components including the main frame, a yarn winding mechanism, and a weaving reed. Test results demonstrate that the device functions effectively in arranging palm fibers and Kevlar into a weave that is neater and denser than that produced by manual methods without equipment. Although minor issues arose during fiber insertion due to the fibrous nature of the materials, the device successfully improved the overall effectiveness and consistency of composite material production for research-scale applications.
