Utilization of Machines to Produce Craft Raw Materials from Doyo Leaf Fiber

Abstract

The limitation of raw materials for doyo leaf fiber crafts is that the fiber produced is still stiff so it is mostly used for crafts in the form of decoration only. Researchers made a machine to produce doyo leaf fiber with a finer texture to help local craftsmen improve the quality of their products. This research aims to test the use of machines by local craftsmen to produce raw materials from doyo leaf fiber. This research uses a comparative description method between the process of producing raw materials from doyo leaf fiber using a machine and manually. This research found empirical evidence that doyo leaf fiber processed by machine produces products with softer quality than when processed manually. The strength of the fibers produced by the machine is the same as if processed manually. The results of this study are useful for improving the quality and diversity of products produced by local craftsmen using doyo fiber as raw material. While doyo leaf fiber has been mostly used to make decorations, processing it using a machine produces fine fiber so it can be used for fashion products.
