<p>The industrial sector in Bantul, Yogyakarta potential is still dominated by small industries. There are lack of synergy between many parties, both government and private sectors in developing and empowering small businesses making it difficult to achieve the goal of creating small businesses are resilient and competitive. Thus, the need for a study of alternative priority needs of small industries which results can be used as a reference in formulating policy of development of the small industry. This analysis is used to make decisions effective output over the decision making process. The main tools Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) is a functional hierarchy with the main input of human perception. By hierarchy, a complex and unstructured problems solved in their groups, and the groups are arranged into a hierarchy form. Small industries were chosen as research sample includes melinjo chips industry, rice crackers industry, bakery industry, peyek cracker industry, and snack food industry. Food industries are scattered in the district of Bantul, Yogyakarta Province. The result was two things: (1) the ineffectiveness of the direction of development; (2) the lack of a uniform indicators of success, because each agency builder seeks to pursue the goals and targets in accordance with the criteria that they have set themselves. Factors that influence the activity / operating a small food industry in order are processes, products, labor, and then raw materials. The need for an industrial to an alternative support is the cornerstone of determining the appropriate policy applied to each different industries. Priority factors in every industry are factors that influence the selection of alternatives that may need assistance in the form of training, equipment, technical, capital and then marketing.</p><p><strong>Keywords</strong>: Analytical Hierarchy Process, Policy making, Small Scale Food industries </p>

The role of robots is becoming substantial for industrial applications and business competitiveness. The purpose of this paper is to review robotic transformation concept and to investigate its business applications in the food industry. The robot transformation in food industry provided a robust support in raising business productivity, reduced cost and enhanced customer's loyalty, besides the food safety and quality. Its service in production systems for material handling and packaging operations is inevitable. Despite the importance of robotics in improving productivity, small scale food companies are often reluctant to invest in robotization of their operations. Since it involves high initial investment, maintenance and costs associated with training skilled employees for programming of robotics. Mainly, two points have raised concerns in the discussion of this paper. First, the robot technology has been enhanced to deliver services for the large scale food companies. Meanwhile, the experiences gained in the food service sector which implement robots can replace the human touch. At the end of this review, several solutions are recommended to shed light on the applications of the robot in the food industry.

The aim of this study was to find out the potential of agricultural and food industry wastes as the constituents of pig feed to improve pigs’ performance and to reduce the feeding cost. This study was conducted at Manokwari Regency, West Papua Province. The agricultural and food industry wastes were collected from two traditional market, and four small-scale food industries. All materials used as feed were proximately analyzed to determine their nutritional values. Average daily gain, feed consumption and feed coversion ratio were taken to determine the pigs performance. Feed cost using local market prices was estimated in knowing the ability of agricultural and food industry wastes to substitutes commercial feed. The result of this research indicates that the use of agricultural and food industries wastes as an alternative components of pigs’ feed to substitute the commercial feed do not reduce the pigs’ performance and production. Among three feeds that use of agricultural and food industry wastes, feed with the combination of 75% waste and 25% commercial feed had the best feed conversion ratio, namely 2.36. On the other hand, a mixture of 25% wastes and 75% commercial feed was the most economic one, and able to reduce the feeding cost of grower pig up to 48.00%.Key words: agricultural waste,  food industry wastes, grower period, pig, feed

The problem which is often faced by small scale industry is the conventional problems, i.e. product quality, capacities, technology, management, marketing and capital. Its low quality of roof tile product yielded by Small and Middle Industry because of raw material quality, technological process applied, labour skill and equipments of production. While the capacity of production is influenced by labour skill, equipments of production and availability of raw material. Mechanism of roof tile press machine which is used during this time (existing equipment) by small scale roof tile industry is machine of manual press by exploiting arm torque. The weakness from this system is the lack of density of tile affected by low emphasis force (100 kgs) and long production cycle. This condition will produce roof tile with low density and low production capacity ( 80 roof liles per machine unit every hour). The solution offered to overcome the problem of quality and capacity of roof tile product is by improving the performance of production equipments, so that production process which is counducted can produce the better product and higher level production capacity. The old roof  tile press machine will all its insuffiency will be substituted with the roof tile press machine using transmission power screw. The new design of press machine can produce the emphasis force 220 kgs and production capacity 150 roof tile per machine unit every 1 hour.

Urgency of the research. Cell production has become one of the most important studies of the arrangement of production systems. This production philosophy is based on the fact that the products are similar in shape and production processes. This allows parts to be grouped into groups that they share during their processing, ensuring an economic effect.Target setting. Automated production systems are built with large investments. The result is small-scale production automation cells, including industrial robots, including handling automation. These automation islands did not meet expectations in terms of costs, commissioning dates, meeting production deadlines, achieving planned performances, so attention must be paid to integrated production. Actual scientific researches and issues analysis. Integrated production reduces material handling and transport time. By making the product more time on the machinery and less time on the road. Because the parts move in the chamber and not in the entire factory, travel time and distance are reduced, leading to a reduction in material handling costs, which represents between 20 and 50 % of the total operating costs. Uninvestigated parts of general matters defining. Most articles and other publications on the problem of modeling integrated manufacturing alleviate the problem of modeling a specific cell. In my article I will solve a production cell in general without specific properties. The research objective This paper focuses on the integrated and logistic of the style of material flow, suitable for realization manufacturing and logistics network. Solution base is defining of mission, objectives and goal integrated of the style of material flow. The core of solution is analysis of strategy on integrated. The result of solution is to define tools integrated and formation evolution profile of the style of material flow. The statement of basic materials.In general, the key to building integrated production is group technology based on the principle of material flow analysis. The problem of modeling integrated production points to possible variants of solutions based on the analysis of material flows. However, considering only this criterion is insufficient for practice, because it does not consider e.g. about the number of pieces. Conclusions. These relationships are representative of some approaching the importance of parameterization, which remains open and accessible to address other tasks to optimize the production system.
