Track: Human Factors and Ergonomics

Abstract

Increasing demand for housing causes higher demand for household equipment. To keep the house clean, tools that can help clean the house are needed. Based on the results of the questionnaire on 55 respondents in which the respondents were household cleaners, it can be seen that the product that needs to be redesigned is mop. ANOMALI (An Ergonomic Mop For Healthy Life) is a mop that can be squeezed by pulling, using the back-rolling principle so that the user does not need to bend the body and turn the wrist to squeeze the mop. In addition, you can remove soap only by pressing a button, using the bernoulli principle so that it does not need electricity. Mops can be removed so they are easy to wash. Made with a good working mechanism, making the mop lighter, aesthetically and still comfortable to use. ANOMALI materials are made of plastic and stainless steel. For plastic, Polystyrene (PS) will be used which has strong, hard, and high resistance. Stainless steel is chosen because it is not easily bent, light and anti-rust. It is estimated that the maximum cost for one ANOMALI production is Rp. 233,000. ANOMALI is made using ergonomic methods such as the principles of hand tools design and anthropometric measurements, and also uses the Kano model as a method to identify customer needs.
