| Summary: | PT X is a company engaged in the palm oil plantation and processing industries. One of the
operational activities at PT X is the inventory receiving of FFB (Fresh Fruit Bunche). This
activity includes the weighing of FFB, grading of FFB, and the process of entering FFB into
the loading hopper. At one of PT X's mills, Mill H, a problem was identified with a significant
amount of FFB being crushed by transport vehicles. This issue has led to losses for the
company. The study's background is based on FFB losses occurring at the loading ramp,
with estimated losses up to hundreds of thousands of rupiah per day. Improving the FFB
receiving system has become the focus of this research. The study aims to find a receiving
system that can reduce FFB losses and provide a storage facility that offers protection for
the FFB. Besides FFB losses, the waiting time for external dump trucks is also a concern for
PT X, considering that external parties contribute to the company’s profits.
In this study, the proposed receipt system was developed through simulation and design of
experiment methods. The simulation was conducted using ProModel software. The
development of the proposed system involved the addition of a conveyor grading machine,
the use of bins, and the increase in loading hopper capacity. An investment feasibility
analysis was also employed as a consideration in determining the best proposed system to
reduce FFB losses in the existing system.
The study results indicate that the selected proposed system includes a grading conveyor
system with six units and 20 bins. The proposed system was able to reduce FFB losses to
zero tons, from a previous total of 59.67 tons. Additionally, the proposed system achieved a
48.57% reduction in the waiting time for external dump trucks, decreasing from 16.09
minutes to 8.27 minutes.
