Abstract

In this study, components of the machine are analyzed to group all components into modular groups with a case study of a soil mixing machine. The study begins by creating a design structure matrix of all components. Next, the design structure matrix is transferred into a distance matrix of all components with Jaccard method. After that, the equation of complete linkage must be applied to change the distance matrix to a tree dendrogram for showing the relationship of machine components and dependent coefficient. With this tree dendrogram, six clusters are arranged:- the 1^st cluster has 8 modules at the lowest dependent coefficient, the 2^nd cluster has 7 modules, the 3^rd cluster has 6 modules, the 4^th cluster has 5 modules, the 5^th cluster has 4 modules, and the 6^th cluster has 2 modules at the highest dependent coefficient. Finally, the 1st cluster with 8 modules is considered to be the most proper cluster for this soil mixing machine by applying the repeating method to analyze all six clusters.
