Penerapan FMECA dalam Mengidentifikasi Kegagalan Komponen Kritis pada Rotary Kiln di Industri Semen

Abstract

The manufacturing sector in Indonesia is experiencing rapid growth. One such company in this industry is a cement producer. Due to high market demand, the cement production process operates continuously, 24 hours a day. This makes the machinery and equipment used in the process susceptible to operational failures. The rotary kiln is a critical component in cement production, also running around the clock. The objective of this research was to identify failure modes and hazards associated with the rotary kiln's components. The study employed the Failure Mode Effect and Criticality Analysis (FMECA) method, an advanced form of Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA). FMECA enables the analysis of production processes, failure effects, failure causes, preventive actions, failure mode detection, and determination of the most critical failure modes. The FMEA analysis revealed 11 distinct failure modes, for which Risk Priority Number (RPN) values were calculated based on severity, occurrence, and detectability. These 11 failure modes were then subjected to criticality analysis using a criticality matrix. The criticality analysis results indicated that the cracked tire component failure mode is the top priority for corrective action.
