Authors: Souza Rafael Rodrigues de , Rêgo Marcia Cristina dos Santos , Santos Vicente Leite Barbosa Araújo dos , Oliveira Alexandre Bezerra
Published: July 2024

A prestação de serviços e aquisição de materiais realizados pela Administração Pública para satisfação das necessidades sociais passa pelas licitações públicas. Esse foi o meio eleito pelo constituinte originário para o processamento das compras públicas. Os vultosos recursos financeiros envolvidos, as corriqueiras práticas de crimes licitatórios e a necessidade de reduzir essas práticas criminosas revelam a importância do estudo. Este trabalho visa analisar quantitativamente a participação social nas investigações de crimes licitatórios deflagradas pela Polícia Civil, através da Diretoria Estadual de Combate à Corrupção. A revisão bibliográfica apresentou os objetivos e conceito de licitação, o funcionamento do Ciclo Licitatório e os crimes associados, assim como o controle social das licitações. Após o referencial teórico, foram apresentados os dados obtidos no lócus da pesquisa, onde se utilizou a abordagem quantitativa para sistematização dos dados. Os dados obtidos no interregno de 2019 a 2023 na Diretoria Estadual de Combate à Corrupção demonstraram que 22,88% dos inquéritos instaurados foram decorrentes de denúncias de cidadãos, políticos e denúncias anônimas. O controle social se constitui em um dos grandes pilares de proteção e desvendamento dos crimes licitatórios, todavia há um grande espaço para o crescimento da participação popular no combate aos crimes licitatórios. Isso denota a necessidade de investimentos em transparência governamentais na acessibilidade de tais dados no que tange a navegabilidade nas plataformas disponíveis para fomentar a participação popular no controle social dos gastos públicos, por meio de campanhas educativas e treinamentos.

La filosofía de la técnica es una de las ramas más recientes nacidas del tronco principal de lo que suele considerarse la filosofía. El nombre le viene de la tradición filosófica continental, acuñado por Ernst Kapp en Grundlinien einer Philosophie der Technik (Fundamentos de una filosofía de la técnica) en 1877, apenas recientemente traducida al francés, inglés y el castellano. Puede decirse que, su mayor avance ha tenido lugar a partir de la segunda mitad del siglo pasado.
En México se desconoció durante mucho tiempo lo hecho por los filósofos mexicanos, lo que estaba más a la mano, si bien escasamente, se vinculaba mayormente con la tradición analítica. Una parte estaba incluida en la obra Cómo acerarse a la filosofía de León Olivé, dedicándole un capítulo a la filosofía de la tecnología; luego están las aportaciones sustantivas de Miguel Ángel Quintanilla recogidas en Tecnología, un enfoque filosófico, publicado inicialmente en 1989 en Madrid, y luego editado por el Fondo de Cultura Económica en México

Published: July 2024

Serum albumin, a key protein in human plasma, maintains oncotic pressure and transports various substances. In gastrointestinal surgeries, the impact of low preoperative serum albumin on postoperative morbidity and mortality is significant but not fully understood. Objective: To determine the role of serum albumin levels as a predictor of postoperative morbidity and mortality in patients undergoing gastrointestinal surgeries. Methods: This prospective cohort study was conducted at Department of Surgery – Jinnah Post Graduate Medical Centre, Karachi from January 01, 2021, to December 31, 2021. The study included 86 patients with age range 18 to 45 years and of either gender who had undergone elective gastrointestinal surgeries and had preoperative serum albumin levels measured within 7 days before the surgery. Patients having exploratory laparotomy involving organs other than GIT, those who lost to follow-up and patients with conditions that significantly affect serum albumin levels, such as chronic liver disease or nephrotic syndrome, were excluded from the study. Results: Hypoalbuminemia (<3.5 mg/dL) was observed in 61 patients (70.9%), while 25 patients (29.1%) had normal albumin levels (>3.5 mg/dL). All 30-day mortalities occurred in the hypoalbuminemia group (p < 0.05). Superficial surgical site infections were significantly higher in the hypoalbuminemia group as well (73.4% vs. 26.6%, p < 0.05). Other complications were more frequent in patients with hypoalbuminemia but were not statistically significant (p > 0.05). Conclusions: The study findings indicate that preoperative serum albumin levels were a significant predictor of postoperative complications in patients undergoing elective gastrointestinal surgeries

BSTRACT
Introduction: The ongoing global pandemic of Covid-19 has led to a significant increase in the mortality rate of patients, despite the use of various pharmacological agents. This has sparked a rise in interest in the medicinal plants found in Nigeria's south-west (Lagos) and north-central (Ilorin), which have long traditions of using herbal remedies.
Aim: As a result, the current study set out to identify and catalogue the medicinal herbs used to treat Covid-19.
Method: To gather information on the herbal practices, medicinal plants, and personal information of herbal practitioners, questionnaires and oral interviews were conducted. The plants that were cited were collected, taxonomically identified by a botanist, and assigned voucher numbers. The plant names were further authenticated through the use of the Plant List (www.theplantlist.org) and World Flora Online (www.worldfloraonline.org).
Result: A total of 56 herbal practitioners from Ilorin and Lagos were interviewed, revealing the use of 38 distinct plant species. Among these, Petiveria alliacea was the most frequently cited, with a citation rate of 55.5%, while Kigelia africana (Lam.) Benth was the least cited, at 11.1%. For treating Covid-19, practitioners utilized various plant parts, including leaves, bark, roots, and seeds, which were prepared as mixtures, decoctions, or powders, and either applied topically or ingested.
Conclusion: The study emphasizes the medicinal herbs utilized in conventional medical procedures to treat Covid-19., with Petiveria alliacea being the most frequently cited plant. This study also revealed the potential use of 15 medicinal plants for the first time as antiviral plants in treating Covid-19, which could serve as sources for the development of novel agents in the fight against the pandemic.

Authors: Alaskarov Elvin , Vehbi Husam , Ozcelik Necdet
Published: July 2024

This retrospective analysis investigated the impact of interventional sialendoscopy in the management of sialolithiasis. The study included 118 patients who underwent sialoendoscopic intervention under general anesthesia for sialolithiasis between August 2015 and November 2022. Demographic and clinical parameters were collected, and preoperative imaging findings were reviewed. The majority of cases presented with submandibular gland (SMG) sialolithiasis (70.3%) compared to parotid gland (PG) sialolithiasis (29.7%). Swelling and pain were the most common complaints among patients. Stone size was not found to be a significant factor in treatment success, while stone localization and ductal stenosis played crucial roles. Stone fragmentation was achieved using Holmium:YAG (Ho/YAG) laser and pneumatic lithotripsy, with an average surgical duration of approximately 1.8 hours for SMG sialolithiasis and 1.5 hours for PG sialolithiasis. Combined approaches were employed in cases where stones were located anterior to the hilum. Treatment success rates were comparable between Ho/YAG laser and pneumatic lithotripsy. The study highlights the importance of preoperative imaging and suggests that interventional sialendoscopy, with its organ-preserving techniques, offers an effective approach for sialolithiasis management. Further research examining stone localization and ductal pathology is needed to optimize treatment selection and improve patient outcomes.
Perception of vibration threshold potential with tuning fork and pure tone audiometry assessment for early detection of diabetic polyneuropathy
Authors: Ghosh Chitra , Sinha Basumita , Dutta Utpal
Published: July 2024

Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM), a multisystem disorder, is a known etiological entity, leading to several neurological disorders. Among them, nervous system is more commonly affected. In most of the diabetic polyneuropathy cases, sensory symptoms involving both general and special senses predominate. Due to gradual and non-homogenous manifestations, it is not easy to detect its onset. Till now no accepted gold standard has been available for its assessment and diagnosis. In this study, changes in vibration perception threshold (VPT) at different frequencies and auditory perception threshold have been investigated in diabetes patients and healthy controls.

Aims and objectives: Determination of perception threshold of a general sense-vibration sense and a special sense-hearing in normal human subjects and patients of DM and evaluation of perception threshold of the human sensory system by VPT test and pure tone audiometry (PTA) as a diagnostic, prognostic and research tool for diabetic neuropathy.

Materials and Methods: A case–control study, conducted in the department of physiology at medical college, Kolkata, after obtaining approval by the institutional research and ethics committee on 100 cases and 40 control subjects. Testing of vibration sensitivity was performed with the help of tuning forks of frequencies of 128 Hz, 256 Hz, and 512 Hz. Assessment of auditory perception threshold was done by Siemens SD 28 diagnostic audiometer.

Results: All data obtained by the methods described here are tabulated. Graphs and charts are drawn and analyzed by standard statistical methods using Statistical Packages for the Social Sciences (version-16) and MATLAB (version-9). A P < 0.05 was considered as significant. A partial negative correlation was observed between the vibration sensitivity and fasting blood sugar and postprandial blood sugar level of the patient population of DM cases, with a “r” value (Pearson’s correlation coefficient was around −0.5. By PTA, it was found the percentage of rise in auditory threshold is around 92–93% in 8000 Hz frequency, and the results of the t-test yield a very highly significant difference (P < 0.0001) between cases and controls. It was found that 128 Hz and 256 Hz vibration stimuli applied over maxillary prominence are highly sensitive and efficient tools for perception analysis. Pure tone auditory threshold evaluation showed preservation of the right-sided advantage of auditory sensitivity and frequency-dependent loss of hearing in the diabetic study population.

Conclusion: Determination of perception threshold of vibration sense by tuning fork and auditory perception by PTA may be used as an effective, easily performed, and low-cost bedside and also outpatient department-based diagnostic tool in patients with DM.
Rethinking primacy’s effects: On creating, avoiding and filling legal vacuums in the national legal system
Authors: Leloup Mathieu , Spieker Luke Dimitrios
Published: July 2024

While much ink has been spilled on the primacy of EU law, many of its features still remain underexplored. Leaving aside the ubiquitous struggle over primacy’s absolute character for a moment, this article takes a deep dive into primacy’s effects on the daily work of domestic judges. We analyse, systematize and rethink the steps that they are supposed to take after finding that national law conflicts with EU law. In a first step, primacy requires them to disapply the respective national provision (primacy’s negative effect). A recent line of cases goes even further, suggesting that judges might not only be obliged to disapply, but even to invalidate national law. This contribution sheds some light on these developments and assesses their risks and added value. Second, the act of disapplying national law may create a problematic legal vacuum in the domestic legislative framework. Therefore, national judges are increasingly reaching out to the Court of Justice, asking to avoid such gaps by limiting primacy’s temporal effects. Yet, in the absence of such suspension, the domestic judges will need to take the positive step of filling the vacuum (primacy’s positive effects). This article provides a novel systematization of the various situations with which domestic judges may be confronted, showing how ever more legal ingenuity and judicial creativity are required. Finally, the article demonstrates how these requirements may create tensions with fundamental principles of domestic constitutional law, such as the separation of power, the judicial architecture and legal certainty.

Authors: Namli Emlek Merve , Donmez Asli , Polat Reyhan
Published: July 2024

Objective: Orthostatic hypotension is a frequently encountered problem after sitting position. The aim of our study was to evaluate the intravascular volume status with passive leg-raising maneuver (PLRM), vena cava inferior (VCI) diameter measurements and plethysmographic variability index- plethysmographic waveform amplitude (∆Ppleth) before sitting position and to investigate the effect of these on predicting hemodynamic changes that may develop after sitting position. Methods: Fifty-three patients undergoing arthroscopic shoulder surgery under general anesthesia, aged 18-65, ASA I-II, were included in this prospective study. Mechanical ventilation was commenced with tidal volume of 6-8 mL kg-1, 5 cm H2O of PEEP. Heart rates, blood pressure and manually measured plethysmographic waveform amplitudes were recorded and VCI-distensibility index (VCI-DI) was calculated. Measurements were repeated after performing PLRM. Correlation of hemodynamic changes, observed after patients were placed in sitting position, with VCI-DI and variations in the ∆Ppleth was evaluated. Results: After induction, VCI-DI was >18% in 19 (35.8%) of 53 patients and in 14 (73.7%) of these, VCI-DI decreased with PLRM. In 14 (93.3%) of 15 patients with ∆Ppleth >15% after induction, ∆Ppleth decreased after PLRM. The decrease in VCI-DI and ∆Ppleth with PLRM was statistically significant (p<0.001; p<0.001). Changes in VCI-DI were found to correlate with ∆Ppleth (p<0.001). When patients were placed in sitting position, there was a significant decrease in heart rate, systolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure (p=0.031; p<0.001), and a significant increase in ∆Ppleth (p<0.001). Conclusion: Plethysmographic waveform amplitude after PLRM can be used to predict the volume status and hemodynamic response of patients undergoing shoulder surgery in sitting position.

Authors: Handoyo Vonny Apriliani , Mahadianto Moh. Yudi
Published: July 2024

Financial performance as a basic aspect of a company's valuation can affect operational performance. This can be seen based on investor responses through stock price volatility. However, apart from healthy financial performance, investors' considerations in providing their funding can come from non-financial aspects, such as the implementation of Good Corporate Governance (GCG) and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) practices as high standards for companies in paying attention to transparency, accountability, and stakeholder involvement in decision-making. The research aims to determine the linkage of the influence of financial performance on value through good corporate governance and corporate social responsibility as moderation. This collection uses a quantitative method by taking samples through purposive sampling. The object of this research is a company listed on IDX ENERGI from the IDX in 2020-2022. The data analysis technique used Regression Data Panel with Eviews 12. Based on the results of policy research, financial performance has a significant effect on the company's value. The Good Corporate Governance (GCG) variable cannot moderate the influence of financial performance on the company's value. The moderation variable Corporate Social Responsibility moderates the influence of financial performance on company value. Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) effectively contributes to strengthening the improvement of financial performance against the company's value. The implementation of effective CSR practices can yield long-term benefits, including reduced legal risks, improved corporate reputation, and improved operational performance.

Objetivos. Examinar las diferencias de género en las características de la parada cardiaca extrahospitalaria (PCRE), los tratamientos, la supervivencia, y los cambios evolutivos en España. Método. Datos de dos series temporales (2013/2014 y 2017/2018) del registro prospectivo de PCRE (OHSCAR). Se incluyeron todos los casos consecutivos en los que intervino un equipo de emergencias. Las variables dependientes fueron las variables de atención de la PCRE, la llegada al hospital con pulso espontáneo, la supervivencia global al alta, y con buenos resultados neurológicos. El sexo fue la variable independiente. Resultados. Las mujeres fueron significativamente mayores, menos propensas a presentar una PCRE en lugar público, recibir desfibrilación externa automática, tener un ritmo inicial desfibrilable y ser atendidas por una ambulancia en menos de 15 minutos. Además, menos mujeres recibieron intervención coronaria percutánea o hipotermia al ingreso hospitalario. Tanto en 2013/2014 como en 2017/2018 las mujeres tuvieron menos probabilidades de supervivencia al ingreso hospitalario (OR = 0,52; p < 0,001; OR = 0,61; p = 0,009 respectivamente), y al alta hospitalaria (OR = 0,69; p = 0,001; OR = 0,72; p = 0,001, respectivamente) y con buenos resultados neurológicos (OR = 0,50; p < 0,001; OR = 0,63; p <0,001, respectivamente). Conclusiones. En ambos periodos las mujeres tuvieron menos probabilidades de sobrevivir y de hacerlo en buenas condiciones neurológicas. Estos resultados indican la necesidad de adoptar nuevos enfoques para abordar las diferencias de género en la PCRE.

Authors: Mercado Justine , Sy Julian John Paul , Ambay Rica Joy
Published: July 2024

The present study investigated the effectiveness of a developed learning package in teaching Geometry 7 specifically in constructions and solving problems involving polygons. Geometry is one of the subjects that many students find to be the most difficult and may be challenging for some children. The major goal of this study is to determine the effect of the developed learning package in teaching Geometry 7 improving the skills of construction and problem solving skills of the students. The learning package sought to provide an engaging learning environment by merging real-world situations and game-based components. The research design adapted a quasi-experimental design wherein it has a control and an experimental group. Pretest and posttest were conducted in the control and experimental group to compare the performance of students who utilized the learning package with those who did not. With the pretest and posttest scores of the students, it was found that the learning package was not effective in school A but effective in school B. The learning package has had a big impact in rural areas, resulting in the absence of significant differences between rural and urban schools. Furthermore, the study did not produce significant interaction between the locality and the usage of the developed learning package. Thus, the Developed Learning Package improved students’ comprehension and engagement with Geometry.

Authors: Costa Amanda Sarto Siqueira Ferreira da
Published: July 2024

This work explores essential strategies for managing financial and operational risks in the agricultural sector, a crucial pillar of the global economy, but one that is exposed to a wide range of financial risks. These risks include fluctuations in commodity prices, access to credit, operational risks, climate change, exchange rate variations, and government policies. To ensure the sustainability and profitability of agricultural operations, it is imperative that producers adopt effective financial risk management strategies. This article addresses the main mitigation and protection strategies against economic variables in the context of agriculture. The methodology of this study is based on a systematic literature review, focused on identifying, analyzing, and synthesizing financial risk management strategies in agriculture. The review covers the analysis of advanced precision technologies, which optimize agricultural production and reduce waste, as well as sustainable agricultural practices, adequate insurance to mitigate the impacts of climate risks, and commodity hedging. Strategies for diversifying crops and agricultural activities to distribute risk and improve financial resilience are also discussed. In conclusion, effective financial risk management in agriculture requires a multifaceted approach that integrates mitigation strategies for various types of risks. The adoption of advanced technologies, sustainable agricultural practices, adequate insurance, and a thorough understanding of market and policy dynamics are fundamental to strengthening resilience and ensuring the sustainability of the agricultural sector against adverse economic variables.

Mangroves are an ecosystem that features dark colored sediment, rich in organic matter, with humic substances as its main component, which were the target of this work that aimed to characterize those humic substances chemically and spectroscopically and compare the biological activity of different humic materials isolated from mangrove areas with different levels of anthropic interference (Maria Ortiz high and Canal dos Escravos low). The chemical and spectroscopic characterization of the humic materials was performed through the analysis of elemental composition, E4/E6 ratio, fluorescence intensity and infrared and their biological activity was tested by evaluating changes in the root growth of corn seedlings in hydroponics. The humic materials, from the Maria Ortiz area, presented higher values in the C/N ratio, higher values in the fluorescence index and lower values in the E4/E6 ratio, when compared with the humic materials from the area of Canal dos Escravos. The absorption bands of the infrared spectrum indicated similarities with respect to the chemical functionality of the humic materials, however, it was possible to notice clear differences between the study areas. All humic materials promoted, in general, changes in the root architecture of corn seedlings when compared to the control treatment. This work shows that there are differences in the chemical and spectroscopic characteristics and in the biological activity of the studied humic materials, demonstrating that the anthropic activity alters the quality of the organic matter of the mangrove sediments, which may interfere in the survival and development of the mangrove forests.

O ordenamento territorial vem sendo modificado pelo crescimento horizontal das cidades, afetando, muitas vezes, áreas frágeis, devido às formas incorretas de uso e ocupação do solo. Instrumentos urbanísticos, como o zoneamento, permitem a divisão do território em porções ou zonas com limitações específicas de acordo com diretrizes para seu uso. Desta forma, este estudo teve como objetivo desenvolver o Zoneamento Ecológico-Econômico (ZEE) para o município de Vale Real, no estado do Rio Grande do Sul. A caracterização da área de estudo considerou dados relativos ao meio físico, biótico e antrópico para a elaboração dos Planos de Informação (PIs). Cada PI contemplou dados geográficos relevantes que foram sobrepostos para a determinação do ZEE. Para a sobreposição dos mapas e a geração do ZEE, foi utilizada a álgebra booleana. Foram definidas seis zonas: Zona de Sensibilidade Ambiental (ZSA), Zonas Agrícolas (ZA), Zonas de Proteção Florestal (ZPF), Zonas Urbanas (ZU-1), Zonas de Reservatórios Artificiais (ZU-2) e Zonas de Interesse Geológico (ZIG), sendo que a de maior abrangência corresponde à ZSA. Este tipo de estudo corresponde a uma importante ferramenta para a implementação de políticas públicas, pois fornece uma base científica para a gestão sustentável dos recursos naturais, promovendo o equilíbrio entre desenvolvimento econômico e conservação ambiental.

Introdução: A amamentação correta diminui a taxa de infecções nos primeiros seis meses de vida, o que resulta em proteção contra doenças. É importante ressaltar que a introdução de outros alimentos nesse período é contraindicada, uma vez que o aleitamento materno é a melhor forma de alimentar o bebê por sua eficácia na promoção da saúde, além de ser um método de baixo custo financeiro e eficiente para diminuir a mortalidade infantil. Objetivo: Descrever o conhecimento do médico e do enfermeiro relacionado aos fatores de risco para o trauma mamilar causado na amamentação. Metodologia: Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa de literatura, onde se realizou uma pesquisa, na literatura nacional, publicada no após o 2013. Resultados: Os médicos e os profissionais da enfermagem desempenham uma função fundamental no apoio às mulheres grávidas e recém-parturientes, sendo crucial para garantir que suas ações sejam conduzidas com habilidade e dedicação, aprimorando constantemente seus conhecimentos. Através dessa cooperação, fica evidente a relevância da presença da equipe multidisciplinar no incentivo ao aleitamento materno, que é um elemento essencial no ciclo de vida de todas as mulheres. Conclusão: Os principais elementos que aumentam as chances de ocorrer trauma nos mamilos incluem: posicionamento incorreto do bebê ao amamentar, presença de estrias, desenvolvimento de fissuras, dor durante a amamentação, falta de apoio do parceiro, ser mãe de primeira viagem, mamas inchadas e cheias de leite, mamilos planos e/ou com forma irregular, mamilos despigmentados, alimentação materna inadequada, parto cesárea e falta de informações durante o acompanhamento pré-natal.

Published: July 2024

A new direction related to research in the wood industry may be thermal imaging together with computer vision techniques. In this work, an attempt was made to use these to record temperature phenomena during drilling in woodbased materials, using MDF as an example. For this purpose, a CNC station was created with a built-in high-resolution thermal imaging camera (260x200 px). Two drill bits were examined – sharp and dull. The temperatures generated by them during drilling were compared. It was shown that the phenomena which can be recorded during the drilling process can be associated with changes in the tool geometry, and therefore can be used for research related to heat during drilling. The presented results open many new and interesting directions in research in wood-based materials technology.

From Margins to the Centre: Unravelling the Psychological and Symbolic Narrative of Prakriti in Tagore’s Play Chandalika
Authors: Reshu Shukla
Published: July 2024

This study dives into the psychological and symbolic study of Prakriti, the protagonist of Rabindranath Tagore's drama Chandalika. Tagore confronts prevailing caste stereotypes by shifting the focus from the society fringes to the center, while also exploring the process of self-discovery and empowerment. The analysis emphasises Prakriti's development from a marginalised outcast to a self-affirmed individual by investigating the interplay of psychological complexity and symbolic factors that drive this metamorphosis. The thesis uses a close reading of the text to highlight Tagore's critique of social hierarchies as well as his advocacy for human dignity and equality.

Authors: Hari Mohan Meena  , HC Prakasha
Published: July 2024

Soil alkalinity has a detrimental effect on agricultural sustainability and soil health. This experiment was carried out in order to evaluate the impact of both organic and inorganic amendments on reclamations and the enhancement of the alkali soil health in Karnataka, India. A randomized complete block design with seven treatments and three replications was used to set up the experiment. When pressmud was used in conjunction with soil test value-based fertilizer application (STV) + farmyard manure (FYM) + ZnSO4 instead of other integrated treatments, rice grain yield was significantly improved. The use of pressmud and gypsum in conjunction with STV + FYM + ZnSO4 decreased the soil pH values to 7.78 and 7.88, respectively compared to RDF + FYM + ZnSO4 (8.36) and increased soil organic carbon, and available nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium (p≤ 0.05). Exchangeable Na and ESP decreased by 20.2 and 43.5 % in STV + pressmud + FYM + ZnSO4 than RDF + FYM + ZnSO4. When comparing STV + pressmud + FYM + ZnSO4 to RDF + FYM + ZnSO4, the increases in soil microbial biomass carbon (SMBC), soil microbial biomass nitrogen (SMBN), dehydrogenase, urease, and alkaline phosphatase activity were 7.1, 28.1, 19.3, 18.5, and 25.3%, respectively. The pH, exchangeable Na and exchangeable sodium percent (ESP) were negatively correlated with SMBC, SMBN, alkaline phosphatase and available nutrients after the harvest of rice and residual dhaincha crop. The results suggested that the addition of pressmud in combination with FYM significantly decreased the pH, exchangeable Na and ESP, and improved soil biological properties.
ANALISIS PEMBUATAN MAIN PULLEY YST-REVO DENGAN METODE CETAKAN SAND CASTING DAN FINISHING SHOT BLASTING
Authors: Ahcmad Fauzan
Published: July 2024

Metal casting is a manufacturing process that involves melting metal and pouring it into a mold cavity. This process can be used to create complex shapes, such as the main pulley for hand tractors, specifically the YTS-Revo model. The aim of this study is to understand the production process and the raw materials used, namely gray cast iron, due to its high fluidity and low shrinkage, as well as its excellent damping capacity. The molding method employed by PT. Mitra Rekatama Mandiri is sand casting, where the sand used can be reused multiple times. The production of the main pulley YTS-Revo begins with the creation of a mold using a replica pattern to form a cavity. Next, the raw materials, including cast iron (steel scrap, recycled scrap, and chips), silicon, carbon charcoal, and slag remover, are melted until reaching a temperature of 1300°C. The molten iron is then poured into the mold, followed by cooling and solidification. After the mold is dismantled, the product is cleaned using a shot blasting machine. The machining process involves threading the pulley using a conventional lathe. The final step is finishing, where the product is soaked in gasoline to prevent rust, making it ready for market.
