Abstract

This paper concludes the first steps for CAE with sorting systems from ICMaS’12. As high
performance sorting processes are more and more relevant not only but very much from e-commerce business engineering is addressed to bring faster, more accurate and safer technologies therein.
The authors describe the in-feed-process, identified as a crucial one for extending sorter performance. An analytical solution (2D) for the “classic” belt feeder is presented and compared with a multibody model.
Valuable insights for modelling, effort and practical use are demonstrated. A MBD-simulation is presented and an overview shows where and how to adjust the design from simulation findings
