In this paper presents friction coefficient determination method between scraped object's material and fence material, determined directly on the conveyor belt, which then is introduced in the FEM program (LSDyna) for simulation of the scraping process in the automated sorting plant. In this case, the necessity of using an additional laboratory stand to determine the coefficient of friction is omitted. Due to the existing balance of friction forces, the model of the phenomenon can be treated as static, therefore the measurement is very simple and does not depend on time.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
