Abstract

In general, this activity aims to improve the production system used in the brick industry in South Sulawesi, particularly
in the Kulo Village, Kulo District, Sidrap Regency. Specifically the purpose of this activity is to facilitate the process of
making bricks, reduce the workload of craftsmen. The main problem experienced by brick craftsmen in Kulo Village,
Kulo District, Sidrap Regency is the process of making dough, molding, and burning bricks. The process of making
dough, and printing is done traditionally using a very simple tool. Therefore the solution offered by the PKM team to
solve the craftsman's problem is to improve the process of making dough, and molding bricks. This is done by designing
and making brick making machines, which will then be used by craftsmen. To achieve this, PKM activities include: (1)
Preparation of materials and tools, (2) Designing, (3) Manufacturing and Testing, (4) Implementation. The results
obtained from these activities are made by printing machines that can be used to make dough, and print bricks. This
