Abstract

Based on observations, tofu home industry in several places in the city of Jakarta still uses conventional production methods. The printing and press process using conventional methods takes a long time the equipment used to print and press tofu is teak. According to home industry owners know to press 100 tofu in one container takes about 20 minutes. The process of producing tofu with a conventional system is less effective and efficient because it requires a long period of time. Based on these problems, the aim of this project is to socialize the new method of using the Automatic Tofu Press Tool so that it is useful in providing knowledge to the SME (Small Medium Enterprise) tofu community about more efficient and shorter press processes, and produces uniform production of both the texture and thickness of tofu produced.

Keywords: tofu automatic press, home industry, SME.
