Surakarta, PT SOLO ABADIINDONESIA – It is very important in carrying out activities, humans must have a body posture that is in accordance with these activities. Therefore, the human body posture must be measured precisely and accurately so that the activities carried out can be maximized. One of the measuring tools that can be used to measure human posture is an anthropometer. PT Solo Abadi Indonesia is one of the manufacturers that makes Anthropometer with the Metrisis brand. On this occasion, one of the products from Solo Abadi, namely the Solo Abadi Anthropometer, was published in an international journal by an ATMI Surakarta Lecturer.
The anthropometer produced by PT Solo Abadi Indonesia is very practical, elegant, and precise. The Measuring Range is from 0 to 2500 mm. The smallest reading is 1 mm. This anthropometer can measure the height, width, and depth between points on the body and standard reference surfaces in standing and sitting positions. This tool has been used in various institutions and companies both domestically and abroad such as Malaysia, UAE, Poland, Hungary, Switzerland, and India. Director of PT Solo Abadi Indonesia, Mr. Dian Untoro, continues to innovate and improvise so that the products made by PT Solo Abadi Indonesia can be used properly and users are satisfied. Therefore, Mr. Dian Untoro asked one of the lecturers at the ATMI Surakarta Polytechnic, Mr. Agus Kurniawan, to analyze this anthropometer scientifically.
Mr. Agus Kurniawan, S.T., M.T., a lecturer at the Polytechnic ATMI Surakarta who was born in Sukabumi, West Java 45 years ago. His field of knowledge is mechanical engineering. Although his research focus is on polymers and renewable energy (thermoelectric), he is happy and proficient in conducting any research related to mechanical engineering and his analysis is very deep.
“Initially, the idea emerged to analyze the Solo Abadi metric anthropometer because of a request from the Director of PT Solo Abadi. He saw that I had strong potential in analyzing a problem or any matter so that a solution could be found in overcoming the existing problems scientifically,” said the ATMI Polytechnic Lecturer at the time. contacted by the editorial team of Solo Abadi Saturday (18/12/2021).
Mr. Agus Kurniawan has conducted research related to this anthropometer. He stated that the first thing to be researched was related to the dimensions of the human body posture that had to be measured. “The metrical anthropometer made by PT Solo Abadi Indonesia is very good. This tool has good precision where the calibration results show the allowable accuracy of 1.1 mm, the result is 0.25 mm. These results show that the accuracy and precision of this anthropometer are very good,” he said.
In addition, he also mentioned that the dimensions of the human body as measured by an anthropometer have been around 100 dimensions. “I conducted research using the comparative research method where I compared the measurement dimensions of this tool with the dimensions of measurements carried out in previous studies using international standards. The results show that there is a need for synchronization of the dimensions that have been measured by PT Solo Abadi Indonesia’s anthropometer with previous research where there are several measurement dimensions based on international standards that have not been measured by this anthropometer, so PT Solo Abadi Indonesia needs to re-synchronize the measurement dimensions,” he stated.
The results of this research are in the form of a journal that has been presented at the 2021 Borobudur International Symposium (on Science and Technology) international seminar in December with the title “Dimensional Analysis of Anthropometer Measurement Tools Produced by PT Solo Abadi Indonesia”. This journal was compiled by Mr. Agus Kurniawan, S.T., M.T. and Mr. Bayu Prabandono, S.T., M.T. as an ATMI Polytechnic Lecturer and Mr. Dian Untoro S.T. as the owner of PT. Solo Eternal Indonesia.
“There is still a lot of research that can be done on this tool, including the useful life of this tool because this tool can be in the form of a knockdown (disassembly) so it is necessary to do research related to the service life (how many times the installation and disassembly can be done) so that this tool can remain good for used, the process of working, etc. ” said the UNS postgraduate graduate lecturer
Solo Abadi really appreciates the research from Mr. Agus, and hopes that in the future he can join us in developing the product.
