ABSTRACT

In order to improve the power selection of the drive unit for the shredding machines,
the authors determine the values of friction coefficients used in the cutting force models. These
values consider the friction between steel and such wood-based materials as chipboard, MDF and
OSB. The tests concern laminated and non-laminated external surfaces and surfaces subjected to
cutting processes. The value of the coefficient of friction for the tested materials is in the range:
for the static coefficient of friction 0.77-0.33, and for the kinetic coefficient of friction 0.68-0.25.
The highest values of the static and kinematic coefficient of friction were recorded for MDF
(non-laminated external surface) and they were equal respectively: 0.77 and 0.68. In turn,
the smallest values of the discussed coefficients were recorded for chipboard (laminated external
wood-base surface), which were at the level of 0.33 and 0.25, resp.

KEYWORDS: Static friction coefficient, kinetic friction coefficient, MDF board, OSB board,
chipboard, carpentry waste.

INTRODUCTION

Many processes that use wood and wood-based waste need shredding of these materials.
This improves their transport, storage and processing. The re-use of waste wood and
wood-based products from production or from the use of products, contributes to reducing both
wood waste and deforestation in various geographical areas. At the same time, it is important to
use economically efficient machines with a low environmental impact. The increase in
consumption worldwide (Blühdorn 2017, Zaharia and Zaharia 2015) contributes to the increase
in the amount of waste (Fan and Meng 2020), including: post-consumer waste (Ihnat et al.
2020), used furniture, packaging (Czarnecka-Komorowska and Wiszumirska 2020,

Czarnecka-Komorowska et al. 2018). Processes managing wood-based waste often use


shredding machines (Warguła and Kukla 2020, Zhang et al. 2019, Yu et al. 2012), as this
facilitates the processes of storage, transport (Reczulski 2015, Gałęzia 2013,
Warguła et al. 2020b) and processing, for example: combustion (Rabajczyk 2020,
Kajda-Szcześniak and Jaworski 2018, 2019, Spîrchez et al. 2019, Chen 2015), composting
(Knitter et al. 2019) including biomass gasification (Sheth and Babu 2010), biochars production
(Kosakowski et al. 2020), pellet production (Saosee et al. 2020, Macko and Mroziński 2018,
2019, Ibrahim et al. 2018) and briquettes production (Garrido et al. 2017) or reuse in
the production of furniture boards (Ihnát et al. 2017, 2018, Souza et al. 2018).
In these processes, the chippers are mostly mobile machines, powered by combustion
engines (Laitila and Routa 2015, Han et al. 2015, Spinelli and Magagnotti 2013). In the case of
such machines, it is advantageous to choose a drive unit with no more power than required, as
larger internal combustion engines are characterized by an increase in fuel consumption and
exhaust gas emissions. This is also important due to the ongoing process, which in essence is not
continuous (Warguła et al. 2019). Shredding is usually a periodic-change process in which
the machine load results from the frequency of waste delivery (Warguła et al. 2020b). Designing
innovative machines shredding wood and wood-based materials is carried out to reduce:
environmental impact (Waluś et al. 2018) and operating costs (Warguła and Krawiec 2020).
The most popular solutions include the use of: cutting mechanisms, characterized by lower
cutting force and increased durability (Guerrini et al. 2019, Macko et al. 2018a,b, Czerniak et al.
2016, Reczulski 2016, 2018), innovative control processes - improving adaptation to conditions
of use (Warguła et al. 2020a,d), but also powering engines with fuels alternative to gasoline
(LPG and CNG) (Warguła et al. 2020c,e, Dziewiatkowski et al. 2020, Szpica 2018).
Designing machines with a drive unit selected efficiently for the required shredding
processes requires precise models of cutting force. These are used, for example, during
designing: circular saw (Kopecký et al. 2014, Orłowski et al. 2013, Porankiewicz et al. 2011),
a band saw (Chuchała and Orłowski 2018, Orłowski and Ochrymiuk 2017), a chain saw (Kuvik
et al. 2017), a large size crusher (Yu et al. 2012), a milling machine (Kopecký et al. 2019,
Durkowić et al. 2018, Krauss et al. 2016, Pinkowski et al. 2016, Mandić et al. 2015, Guo et al.
2015, Džinčić et al. 2012). In the event of significant overcapacity, the machine will be
characterised by inefficient operation and increased emissions of air pollutants. On the other
hand, insufficient power of the drive unit may hinder, and in extreme cases prevent the shredding
process (e.g. by blocking the cutting mechanism). The creation of a mathematical model requires
knowledge of the values of the coefficients on which it is based, with the greatest accuracy being
achieved by experimentally determining the values sought. The results of previous research work
on cutting force (Warguła and Kukla 2020) suggest that the shredding process of wood-based
panels can essentially be divided into two parts. In the first part, the material is crushed by
compacting it. However, the actual part of the process, i.e. cutting, takes place only after the tool
has been recessed to a certain depth. This is due to the properties of the cut furniture boards,
which are a wood-based material, as schematically presented in Fig. 1. Considering
the conclusions from previous studies, it was noted that the cutting process of the discussed
wood-based and wooden materials is similar to that of other materials of plant origin. Therefore,

790

it is reasonable to use available theoretical models of cutting materials of plant origin describing
this phenomenon, such as the one described in Eq.1:

(1)

where: F is the pressure force per blade length unit, is the thickness of the blade, is the stress
in the material created during cutting, E is Young's modulus of the material to be cut, is
the thickness of the layer of material to be crushed with the knife, H is the total height of
the material, β is the angle of application of the knife blade, μ is the coefficient of internal friction,
μ' is the coefficient of friction between the knife blade material and the material to be cut
(Kanafojski and Karwowski 1976).

Fig. 1: Force acting on the knife edge at the beginning of the cutting process of plant-based
material; H- thickness of the material being cut, h - thickness of the crushed layer, R - reaction
force of the material being cut; prepared based on (Kanafojski and Karwowski 1976).

Of course, it is possible to numerically model different values of the friction coefficient μ'
corresponding to different values of the cutting depth . This will allow to take into account
the layered structure of the material. This is necessary because each of the layers (in general) may
have various properties - including the different values of coefficient of friction.
The main objective of the conducted research is to develop innovative solutions for drive
systems of low-power internal combustion chippers for the purpose of shredding wood material
and its derivatives, especially wood-based panels. Therefore, it is necessary to precisely define
and model the values of forces which must be transferred by cutting mechanisms of machines
shredding furniture waste. As a result, this will also translate into the determination of
the mechanical power requirements of their drive systems. The proper selection of the drive unit,
without too much power reserve, translates into measurable environmental and economic
benefits related to the energy saving during the implemented process. This is why it is important
to conduct research in the discussed direction. In the presented model (1), only the first
component represents a useful force, which is necessary to carry out the cutting process. Due to
the large variety of plant-based materials, its value can only be determined based on experiments.
Research work is currently under way on this issue. The second segment of Eq. 1 is related to
cutting resistances not directly related to the process itself, i.e. crushing of the material, internal
friction and friction between the blade and the material being cut. The results presented in this

article are related to the experimental determination of coefficients of the described model.
The literature provides values of friction coefficients of wood-based materials (Kazlauskas et al.
2020, Stasiak et al. 2020, Bejo et al. 2000), but does not consider all materials presented in this
article and does not consider all surfaces with which the cutting knife may come into
contact during the shredding process.
The value of the friction coefficient between: wood-based materials, a wood-based and
wood-based materials and/or the cutting tool can depend on many factors. The value of
the friction coefficient between two wood-based materials may change, for example, with
an increase in contact pressure (an increase in contact pressure causes a decrease
in the kinematic and static friction coefficient) (Bejo et al. 2000). Wood moisture contributes to
the increase of the static and dynamic friction coefficient (Aira et al. 2014, Seki et al. 2013).
The average coefficient of friction between the cemented carbide and the wood surface increased
with increasing moisture below the fiber saturation point (FSP). However, an increase in
the amount of free water may lead to a more significant decrease in the friction coefficient
(Li and Zhang 2019). The arrangement of wood fibers may result in even a twice higher value of
the friction coefficient (Aira et al. 2014). The kinematic parameters of the contact, e.g. velocity,
also affect the value of the kinetic friction coefficient, however, the available studies for a variety
of wood and wood-based materials do not show unequivocal relationships (Li et al. 2013).
The value of the dynamic friction coefficient, e.g. during cutting with a steel tool or sintered
carbides, can be reduced by applying various types of coatings, e.g. carbon (Karczewski et al.
2012), carbon and titanium (Kaczorowski and Batiry 2008), CrxNy (Djouadi et al. 2000),
TiAlN/a-CN (Czarniak et al. 2020) coatings. With the properties of, for example, a cutting tool,
the coefficients of dynamic friction of wood-based and wooden materials are affected by their
roughness (Xu et al. 2014). The value of the friction coefficient is influenced by many
parameters, the authors of the article presented research for a classic tool set in grinders made of
tool steel. The speed of the process corresponded to the actual operating conditions of the tested
machines, which can range from 40 rpm to 2500 rpm (Huber et al. 2017, Warguła and Kukla
2020, Warguła et al. 2020f) and the ambient temperature similar to that available in
the production halls of carpentry workshops.

MATERIALS AND METHODS

Wood-based materials samples preparation


Measurements in this study were carried out for 11 sample types. Using mechanical
processing, individual samples of 40 × 15 cm were cut out from boards supplied by commercial
suppliers. Depending on the type of board, they differed slightly in thickness, but this parameter
does not affect the measurement results.
In the case of a wood-based panel, the external surface was tested in its nominal condition
(i.e. the surface condition as the material is immediately after purchase, without any additional
treatment likely to change its properties). In the case of MDF, the external surface was tested
in its nominal laminated and non-laminated condition. Additionally, experiments were carried out
on the surface created after mechanical cutting off of the selected plane of the tested material. In

792
WOOD RESEARCH

the case of chipboard, its external and side surfaces were tested in their nominal condition and
the surface created after mechanical cutting off part of the material. In addition, the external
surface in its nominal condition for the second type of laminated chipboard (porous structure)
was also tested. For OSB, the external surface in its nominal condition, the side surface after
mechanical cutting of the material and the surface after removal of the cover layer were also
tested. In the last case, it was necessary to prepare the surface for testing by partial smoothing.
The aim of this treatment was to remove protruding parts of the chips with a grinding wheel
(because they were crushed or broken during the tests, making it impossible to carry out
the experiment) and not to obtain a smooth surface structure. It was decided to leave the boards
nominal thickness so that it is not necessary to cut them wide. The characteristics and
determinations of the individual samples are presented in Tab. 1. The markings introduced in
Tab. 1 have been consistently maintained throughout the article. The individual surfaces are
shown in Fig. 2.
Temperature and humidity affect the results of friction tests (Park et al. 2011). Thus,
prepared test samples were conditioned at temperature of 20°C and humidity of 65% so that they
reached a moisture content (MC) of 10% ± 0.1%. For this purpose, a climatic chamber was used.
The moisture content was checked with a Mettler Toledo moisture analyser during conditioning
until the desired value was obtained. The measurement consisted in precise weighing of
the sample (± 0.001 g) and simultaneous drying (change of MC from measured value to
oven-dry).

Chipper knives material


A lot of research work can be indicated in the field of surface roughness and topography of
contact surfaces, but the exact relationship between surface roughness and friction has not yet
been defined (Sedlaček et al. 2009, Meine et al. 2002). Moreover, there are a number of
parameters that describe the surface profile. A maximum of 17 parameters are currently being
used for this purpose (Meine et al. 2002). So far, however, no single definition of roughness
describes the surface profile in a complete way. As a result, quite different surface topographies
can have the same roughness value (Meine et al. 2002, Bhushan 1999). However, test results are
available to indicate the relationship between roughness and coefficient of friction in dry
conditions (without lubricants) (Al-Samarai et al. 2012). Therefore, tests have been performed to
determine the surface roughness of cutting plates made of metallic material. However, when
interpreting them, the above-mentioned comments should be considered.
The test uses cuboidal plates made of HADOX steel, type 500. It is the same type of material
that is used for knives in a cylindrical chipper. The plates were cut out by machining. Before
the test, their surface was prepared by rough cleaning with sandpaper and degreasing with a high
percentage solution of technical alcohol. The material in this condition corresponds to brand new
knives used in chippers. It should be stressed that they are subject to relatively fast wear as
a result of the impact character of this type of machines. The condition of the knives' surface may
affect the friction coefficient measurements.
The roughness was measured with a Jenoptik IMG Hommel Tester T1000 profilometer using
a T1E sensor within a measuring range of 80 μm. The measuring distance was = 4.8 mm and
the elementary distance was = 0.8 mm. Five measurements were taken at different places of
the prepared plate. The recorded surface profiles are shown in Fig. 3. The collected results
concerning: the highest roughness height , the highest roughness height according to
the measured 10 highest profiles and the mean arithmetic deviation from the mean line are
shown in Tab. 2.

Kinetic friction tests


The research was carried out to determine the coefficient of friction between panels made of
wood-based materials and the metal alloy which is used for the production of chipper knives.
The determination of the kinetic coefficient of friction took place on a specially prepared station
according to the scheme presented in Fig. 4. The tested sample (1) was fixed to the base.
A rectangular element made of the used metal alloy (2), which was additionally loaded with mass
(3), was placed on it. The total mass of the cuboidal block of the tested metal alloy and the weight
was = 39.5 kg. The hydraulic cylinder (5) was equipped with a force transducer (4), (C9C
1 kN by HBM) which registered this physical value F(t) cooperating with a measuring amplifier
(Spider 8 by HBM) and a PC class computer. Hydraulic system cooperating with the actuator
allowed to provide a constant value of the actuator's displacement velocity independent of
the applied load. The force was applied to the element being moved axially in order to ensure its
linear movement, despite this the position of of the tested element was controlled during
the experiment. The actuator's displacement velocity was = 22 mm.s-1. It was selected in such
a way that for set load value, for the largest possible group of materials there was no stip-slick
phenomenon.

In the tests described, the force vs displacement can be presented as one of the three
characteristic curve types, shown in Fig. 5. In the case shown in Fig. 5a, there is the stick-slip
phenomenon, which is the effect of cyclic overpowering of the force causing the movement and
the resistance force of this movement. In this case the maximum friction force was determined
from the first extreme of the recorded force. The average friction force was calculated from
the sum of the successive minimum and maximum extremes of the measured signal. In the case
shown in Fig. 5b, the value of the maximum friction force was determined in a similar way.
The average value of the friction force was taken as the arithmetic mean from the measured
signal of the friction force course. The sought value for the case from Fig. 5c was determined
in the same way, except that for this case it was impossible to define unambiguously
the maximum friction force, because the point of occurrence was not a local extreme of
the recorded force course. The described test methodology was based on ASTM D2394: 2011.

Based on the determined values: and , static and kinetic coefficients of


friction were calculated, according to Eqs. 2 and 3:

In order to analyse the values of these two coefficients, the values of their ratio have also
been determined in accordance with Eq. 4:

For each of the 11 types of samples 10 experiments were carried out. The arithmetic mean of
all measurements for each type of material was taken as the estimator of the static and kinetic
coefficient of friction values sought. The standard deviation of the arithmetic mean was taken
as the estimator error.

DISCUSSION

The static and kinetic coefficient of friction values determined indicate that the former
is always greater. Their ratio is 0.77 on average, with the greatest value equal to 0.89 for
sample number 3 and the smallest value equal to 0.67 for sample number 2.
Within MDF samples the lowest coefficients of friction (both static and kinetic) are for
the laminated surface. Higher values were noted for the cut surface and the highest values for
the non-laminated (side) surface. The increase in the static coefficient of friction from
minimum to maximum for this type of material was 39% and for the kinetic coefficient of friction
it was 51%.
The test results for chipboard are characterized by similar values of friction coefficients in
the range of non-laminated surfaces (type 6-8 samples). The biggest difference (8%) in the static
coefficient of friction was observed for samples 7 and 8, and the biggest difference in
the kinetic coefficient of friction (6%) was observed when comparing the results for samples
6 and 7. Due to the nature of the process, it was not possible to determine the static coefficient
of friction for sample number 5, while the kinetic coefficient of friction was 0.35 and was 18%
lower than the next value for this type of material (samples type 5 and 7).

798
WOOD RESEARCH
___________________________________________________________________________________________________

Interestingly, in the case of OSB, the surface created after mechanical cutting of the material
had the lowest friction coefficient value. A higher value was recorded for the external surface in
its nominal condition, and the highest value of the coefficient of friction was recorded for
the internal surface (after removing the top of the material). The difference between the extreme
values was 18% for the static coefficient of friction and 26% for the kinetic coefficient of
friction (type 9 and 11 samples).
Test results for materials with a laminated surface (type 2 and 5 samples) compared to
non-laminated surfaces (type 3 and 4 and 6-8 samples respectively) indicate lower values of both
coefficients of friction. This is of course due to the different type of material and other
parameters of the cooperating surfaces, which however has important implications for
the cutting process. The laminate (lower coefficient of friction) may be located only in the small
top part of the furniture board's cross-section, while the main part of it consists of a compressed
wood-base material (higher coefficient of friction). Therefore, in addition to, for example,
the geometry of the blade, the structure of the material itself is also a source of variation in
the cutting force value during the process.
The recorded values of static and kinetic coefficient of friction and their ratio can be
compared, for example, to tests related to the determination of the coefficient of friction of
spruce lumber, for different surface states resulting from the sample preparation method
(Park et al. 2011). The range of determined values and in particular the values of the ratio can
be considered to be similar.

CONCLUSIONS

Within the framework of the described research works, the force necessary to displace 11
types of samples from wood-based materials and metal material used for the production of
cutting elements for chippers with combustion engines was measured. The samples differed in
the type of material and surface condition. Based on the measured force course, static and
kinetic coefficient of friction and their ratio were determined, which were subsequently
analysed. The data collected will be used, among other things, to model the cutting force during
the shredding process of wood-based furniture boards. This will be used to determine
the demand for mechanical power of low-power drive systems of chippers with combustion
engines, which will allow to propose new technical solutions in this aspect. The main conclusions
resulting from the research work can be presented as follows: (1) For the accepted parameters of
the experiment (movement speed = 22 mm.s-1, loading mass = 39.5 kg), an irregular
"stick-slip" movement occurred for sample number 10 (OSB external surface layer in nominal
condition). (2) For the accepted parameters of the experiment (motion velocity = 22 mm.s-1,
loading mass = 39.5 kg) the recorded movements did not allow to define the maximum
friction force, because the point of occurrence (force value at the moment of static/kinetic
transition) was not a local extremity of the recorded movements (case from Fig. 5c) for sample
number 5 (laminated external porous chipboard). (3) The coefficient of friction between
the machine knife and the material to be shredded is not constant. This is, among other things,
due to: the heterogeneous structure of the material, the surface profile of the material before and
799

during the shredding process and its composite structure (different materials included in
the furniture board and surface modifiers). (4) The differences in the value of the friction
coefficient may vary from a dozen to several dozen percent. As a result, the demand for the drive
torque for the chipper's working mechanism will change during the shredding process. This is
important because the working section of this machine is anyway subjected to high dynamic
loads of an impact character due to its nature of work.
