Laporan kerja Praktik di PKS Pagar Merbau PTPN IV Regional II

Abstract

Proses produksi di PKS Pagar Merbau dimulai dari penerimaan bahan baku, perebusan TBS, penebahan, pengepresan, pemurnian minyak, hingga pengolahan biji dan utilitas pendukung. Setiap tahapan proses tersebut memiliki potensi permasalahan yang dapat memengaruhi kelancaran produksi, seperti keterlambatan proses, penurunan kinerja mesin, serta ketidakefisienan penggunaan sumber daya. Oleh sebab itu, diperlukan pengelolaan sistem produksi yang baik, termasuk pengaturan tenaga kerja, pemeliharaan mesin, serta penerapan prosedur kerja yang sesuai standar. The production process at the Pagar Merbau Palm Oil Mill encompasses stages ranging from raw material intake, sterilization of Fresh Fruit Bunches (FFB), threshing, pressing, and oil purification to kernel processing and supporting utility operations. Each stage carries the potential for issues that could disrupt smooth production—such as process delays, declining machinery performance, and inefficient resource utilization. Consequently, effective production system management is essential, involving workforce coordination, machinery maintenance, and the implementation of standardized work procedures.
