In the journey of worship, the theme of paradise plays a significant role as a source of motivation and spiritual guidance. Paradise, viewed as the ultimate destination filled with eternal happiness, pleasure, and peace, holds importance across various religious beliefs. Implementing studies on the theme of paradise in the spirit of worship is relevant for deepening understanding, motivating, and enhancing the quality of believers' worship. This research employs a qualitative approach, combining literature analysis and field studies. The analysis reveals that understanding the concept of paradise significantly influences believers' worship spirit. The theme of paradise serves not only as a personal motivator but also reinforces religious values and shapes moral behavior and ethics within religious communities. Challenges in implementing studies on the theme of paradise include varying individual understandings and interpretations of religious texts.D iscussion highlights the need for harmonizing understanding of the concept of paradise, optimizing the implementation of paradise-themed studies in worship through religious education and community activities, strengthening religious values through religious education programs, and addressing challenges through open dialogue and contextual approaches. This research contributes to a deeper understanding of implementing studies on the theme of paradise in the spirit of worship and proposes steps for developing more meaningful and directed worship practices within the religious context.</p> khoiri khoiri Copyright (c) 2024 khoiri khoiri https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 2023-12-30 2023-12-30 7 10.21070/pels.v7i0.1603 Analysis of Process Failures in Plastic Product Manufacturing Using Blow Molding Machines https://pels.umsida.ac.id/index.php/PELS/article/view/1452 <p>Abstract. The rapid advancement of technology, particularly in the plastics industry, is closely intertwined with the<br>development of machinery used in plastic production processes. Commonly used machines in plastic raw material<br>production include blow molding, injection molding, and extrusion. The production cycle time significantly affects<br>both the quality and quantity of production. While a faster production cycle may increase the quantity of output, it<br>does not necessarily guarantee an improvement in product quality. Hence, it is imperative for companies to identify<br>factors leading to production defects to plan controlled improvements. Product quality is a crucial consideration for<br>consumers when selecting products. PT. XYZ Pasuruan, a manufacturing company specializing in plastic packaging<br>processing, faces production issues involving defective products and the underlying factors causing them. This<br>results in time and cost losses due to the need to reproduce faulty products. Therefore, this research aims to develop<br>effective strategies for preventing and reducing production defects. Possible measures include improving production<br>processes, machinery, employee training, or changing raw material suppliers. By addressing the root causes of<br>these issues, the industry can enhance product quality, reduce production costs, and increase customer satisfaction..<br>Keywords - Blow Molding Machine; Product Failures; Product Quality</p> Muhammad Alriz Nur Aftian Ali Akbar Copyright (c) 2024 Muhammad Alriz Nur Aftian Muhammad Alriz Nur Aftian https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 2024-03-13 2024-03-13 7 232 238 10.21070/pels.v7i0.1452 Welding And Maintenance Factory Work Tools https://pels.umsida.ac.id/index.php/PELS/article/view/1453 <p>Abstract. The welding process is widely used to join metals. However, there are still many welders who have not <br>mastered welding techniques that comply with the standards set by welding associations. This research was <br>conducted to find out how the welding process and maintenance of factory work tools works. Research begins by <br>identifying machine damage or factory equipment damage. Once the damage is known, repairs are then carried out <br>on the damaged machine. The results of research regarding welding and maintenance of factory work equipment <br>show that damaged factory equipment must receive regular inspection and maintenance. Factors that cause damage <br>to factory work equipment are human error, lack of diligent cleaning of industrial work tools, and can also be <br>caused by the age of industrial machines. <br>Keywords – Damage; Welding; Maintenance</p> <p><br>Abstrak.

Electrical panels are an important component in industry, which provides security to electrical installations in various industrial sectors. Large-scale companies dominate this industry to meet the high needs of consumers and maintain the quality and security of electrical installations. Electric panels must be installed carefully, pay attention to the surrounding environment, and play an important role in controlling ventilation to regulate the temperature and air conditions inside the cage. This research uses qualitative methods to understand the process of making ventilation panels. The results cover two types of panels: electric panels and ventilation panels. Electric panels serve as storage for electrical components, protect from the surrounding environment, and facilitate the operation of electrical machines. Meanwhile, ventilation panels are a crucial part of modern farm management, adjusting temperature and humidity to suit the needs of animals. The components in the ventilation panel involve various elements such as MCBs, TORs, contactors, relays, busbars, and others. The process of creating ventilation panels includes steps such as sketching pictures, making electrical panel boxes, assembling components, busbar assembly, wiring, as well as QA and QC stages to ensure panel quality. This process ends with finishing and packing before delivery to the consumer.

Therefore, a reliable electrical transmission and distribution system is essential. Transformers, especially in an industrial context, play a key role in power supply. Transformer maintenance is a critical step in maintaining a stable flow of electricity. This study adopts the Research and Development (R&amp;D) method and focuses on measuring insulation resistance and voltage ratios in the context of transformer maintenance. The research was conducted at the Pole Transformer Substation (GTT) in P. Melati, Sidoarjo Regency, East Java, starting in August 2023. The research variables involve measuring the insulation resistance referring to IEC standards and measuring the voltage ratio to ensure proper transformer performance. The test results indicate that the insulation resistance in the transformer, both on the primary and secondary sides, meets the standards, demonstrating that the transformer functions well and safely. Voltage ratio measurements closely approximate theoretical calculations and fall within a tolerance of ± 0.5%. This study underscores the importance of transformer maintenance in maintaining a stable flow of electricity. Proper maintenance will prevent disruptions that can be detrimental, such as current leakage or short circuits.

The condition of the superheater needs to be considered, if there is rust it will reduce the performance of the superheater in heating steam to the point of superheat. Rust / corrosion is the enemy of dangerous metals. Corrosion is defined as a deterioration in the quality of metals due to electrochemical reactions with their environment In corrosion events, metals undergo oxidation, while oxygen (air) undergoes reduction. The corrosion event itself is an electrochemical process, which is a process (change / chemical reaction) that involves electricity. Certain parts of the metal act as the negative pole (negative electrode, anode), while the other part acts as the positive pole (positive electrode, cathode). Electrons flow from the anode to the cathode, resulting in corrosion. By calculating the corrosion rate of superheaters with material A-213 T22 can be a consideration for using materials that are more resistant to rust or become a consideration in estimating repair time.</p> Satria Agung Wibisono A’rasy Fahruddin Copyright (c) 2024 Satria Agung Wibisono , A’rasy Fahruddin https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 2024-03-20 2024-03-20 7 494 497 10.21070/pels.v7i0.1513 Analysis of The Causes of Defects In Products in Cup Filing Machines https://pels.umsida.ac.id/index.php/PELS/article/view/1514 <p>Drinking water is good water and can be in natural form or processed like sea water for desalination, it<br>must meet the drinking water standards set.
