2. Answer :

The factory produced 2 product each day. So the unit load alternative is the factor of 2, that are
unit load 1 and 2. Based on the processing time in OPC. This is the Calculation of unit load.

Based on the calculation, the result is :


Total time by using unit load 2 is 25 minutes.
Total time by using unit load 1 is 24 minutes.
The optimum unit load is 1.

3. Answer :

• Volume material A = 20x15x15 cm


• Volume of Forklife = 120x120x120 cm
• Output = 300 product/day
• Workdays = 25 a month
• Workhours = 8 workhours/day
• The price of forklift = Rp 30.000.000
• Economic life of forklift = 10 years
• The salary of operator = Rp 800.000/month
• Maintenance Cost = Rp 500.000/month
• Fuel cost = Rp 1.000.000/month
• The Milleage of forklife per day = 300 meters
• Total Distance between stations in = 200 meters
• Equipment Capacity = Vol of equipment / Vol of material
= 120x120x120 / 20x15x15
= 384

We we will calculate by equalizing the time,


• Maintenance Cost = Maintenance Cost MHE per month / Workday per month
• Maintenance Cost = Rp 500.000 / 25 days
• Maintenance Cost = Rp 20.000 /day
• Fuel Cost = Fuel Cost per month / Workday per month
• Fuel Cost = Rp 1.000.000 / 25 days
• Fuel Cost = Rp 40.000/day
• Depreciation = Price of MHE / Economic life x Workday per year
• Depreciation = Rp 30.000.000 / 10 x 25 x 12
• Depreciation = Rp 10.000 /day
• Operator Cost = Salary of Operator / Workday per month
• Operator Cost = Rp 800.000 / 25 days
• Operator Cost = Rp 32.000/day

Telp.(022)7564108 Ext.2212 e-mail: pftlabz.org@gmail.com

• MHE Cost = Maintenance cost + Fuel Cost + Depreciation


= Rp 20.000 /day + Rp 40.000 /day + Rp 10.000 /day
= Rp 70.000 /day
• Equipment Cost per meter movement = (MHE Cost + Operator Cost) / Mileage
MHE)
= (Rp 70.000 + Rp 32.000) / 300
= Rp 340 /meters
• Frequency = Output / Equipment Capacity
= 300 / 384
= 0,78 ≈ 1
• Total MHC = Equipment cost per meters movement x Stations Distance x Frequency
= Rp 340/meters x 200 meters x 1
= Rp 68.000 /day
