be carried out so that these people's businesses remain and
increasingly develop, among others by improving the quality of the
process of a blacksmith so that their products are quite competitive.
This article describes the results of the research in the laboratory
regarding the physical processes of heating and quenching under
blacksmith, which the results have been applied to community service
activities at the Suger Kidul villages in Jember Regency. The study
aimed to find the most appropriate procedure for steel tool
manufacturing processes so that the blacksmith products have high
quality as high hardness. The physical process for blacksmith process
is heating and quenching. This study analyzes the proper heat
(temperature), proper processing time, and proper media for heating
and quenching to produce good harness quality of the product. | en_US |
