Abstract

ABSTRACT SMALL spheres and/or flat belts were formed from 16 polymer materials. The spheres were sorted by being carried on a flat belt over a vibrating metal surface so the vibration passed through the belt to the spheres causing them to bounce over a barrier. It was concluded that specifying the Young's modulus and loss tangent (energy damping) of the vibrating surface (belt) was an effective means of improving sorting compared to using the same specifications for all applications.
