Abstract

In this thesis shows, continues research of designing new generation of Fire Fighting ground vehicle (FiGOV) by applying modular design approach. FiGOV is an unmanned ground vehicle also known as mobile machine that been mounted on rigid chassis that can be use to achieve several task in this case completing fire fighting task. FiGOV helps to reduce life sacrifice by fire fighter on fire situation. From this reason, development of FiGOV has been growth in many generation through the years. Previous generation of FiGOV, third generation, has been complete permanently equipped with couple task that are water spraying system and surveillance camera. This two task are attach to FiGOV that occur limited task in helping fire fighter by only provided clear view in fire situation and also provide water spraying system which elevated the nozzle with different heights simultaneously or alternatively without detach one task from the FiGOV. Due to this problem, the fourth generation of FiGOV has been develop by enhance multi tasking with modular design approach. Modularity can provide more flexibility, more functionality and high ability of user friendly. This design approach has been complete with proper design development process starting with design briefing will held among of group of student and between engineer from industry to discuss and brainstorming ideas of modular design of FiGOV. From those ideas, it will be use in set product design specification use as guides in producing several concept design to be choose using weighted objective method. Analysis of design such bolt selection method, FEA analysis will strengthen design that been choose. Detail design will be set by assist of CATIA. Finally, one modular mechanism will be produce based on the design process method discuss on this thesis.
