Uji Alat Pemotong Ubi Kayu Berbentuk Cassava Fries Tipe Pres

Abstract

Cassava cutter is a tool that can make it easier to cut cassava into cassava fries. This study aims to test the effectiveness of the cassava cutting tool with the parameters used in this study, namely the effective capacity of the tool, the percentage of yield damage, the percentage of the cut yield. The best effective capacity of the tool was obtained in the P1 treatment of 11.0267 Kg/hour and the smallest effective capacity of the tool was obtained in the P3 treatment of 4.54 Kg/hour. The percentage of the largest yield damage was obtained in treatment P1 of 62.6667 % and the smallest percentage of damage was obtained in treatment P3 of 26.4667 %. The largest percentage of truncated results was obtained in treatment P3 of 73.5333 % and the percentage of truncated results was obtained in treatment P1 of 37.3333 %. From the calculation of economic analysis obtained BEP (Break Even Points) of 0.0047 kg/hour, NPV (Net Present Value) 5 % of IDR 302,265,502.656/year, while for NPV (Net Present Value) 6 % is IDR 293,925,756.576/year, and IRR (Internal Rate of Return) is 41.9137 %.
