Studi Experimental Pengaruh Variasi Lintasan Aspal, Beton, dan Tanah terhadap Perilaku Keseimbangan Roda Mobil pada Proses Balancing

Abstract

Wheels are one part of a vehicle that functions to support the weight of a vehicle. Unbalance can also be influenced by the roads in Indonesia which are not all smooth, one of which is on toll roads, 80% of which are built using concrete. This experimental study aims to analyze the causes of wheel vibration. analyze the effect of changes in wheel balance on varying trajectories. In this study, the MPU 6050 accelerometer sensor was used with three measurement axes, namely the highest vibration growth occurred on the X axis when the wheel was in direct contact with the concrete track with a vibration growth value of 3.22 ms, the highest vibration growth on the Y axis also occurred on the concrete track with a vibration growth value of 9.19 ms and on the Z axis the highest vibration growth is on the ground track with a vibration growth value of 1.41 ms. To overcome imbalance in the wheels, a balancing process must be carried out to add balancing mass to the wheels every 10,000 km. This maintenance step is none other than to maintain safety when driving
