In this EDEM tutorial, we'll show how to create a family of equal parts that move along the same trajectory but with a delay from each other. This method is useful for creating multiple geometries moving in a complex manner, as you only need to define the kinematics once.
The focus of this tutorial is on:
- Importing a complex polyhedral
- Creating multiple copies of a single geometry
- Creating conveyor slats using copy Motion and copy Geometry tools
- Adding texture to geometry
Tutorial type: EDEM applications - Intermediate level
Note: For this tutorial, you must use EDEM 2024.1 or later versions that support all polyhedral particle shapes, including concave shapes.
