The article provides a discussion on the results of the original studies of a power transmission system of a mining scraper conveyor coupled with an innovative highly flexible clutch, conducted in operating conditions. The research consisted in establishing the static characteristics of the highly flexible clutch in question, determining the torsional vibrations of the said highly flexible clutch and the vibrations of the transmission housings at a test rig, verifying if the coupling between the innovative flexible clutch and a typical scraper conveyor drive unit was correct, and testing durability of individual components of the highly flexible clutch. Following the aforementioned tests, one can distinguish three phases of its operation: initial, main, and final – all differing in terms of flexibility. Furthermore, upon increasing the flexibility of the metal clutch, a significant decline in the root mean square (RMS) values of linear vibration accelerations was observed compared to the blocked condition of the clutch.

Micro gears play an increasingly important role in various industrial applications, and the minimization of their deviations is challenging for metrology and manufacturing. A promising method is the focus variation technology, which enables areal measurements of micro gears. Practice-related standards are used to determine measurement uncertainties by comparison with calibration values. In this work, the external micro gear standard of the Physikalisch–Technische Bundesanstalt is used to evaluate experimental measurement uncertainties of a focus variation coordinate measurement system for the first time. The traceable standard with modules between 0.1 and 1 mm is calibrated using micro tactile coordinate measurements. Optical and tactile measurements are then compared. As a result, small expanded measurement uncertainties of less than 4 μm are achieved.

Peristaltic pumps are widely used in biomedical applications to ensure the safe flow of sterile or medical fluids. They are commonly employed for drug injections, IV fluids, and blood separation (apheresis). These pumps operate through a progressive contraction or expansion along a flexible tube, enabling fluid flow. They are also utilized in industrial applications for sanitary fluid transport, corrosive fluid handling, and novel pharmacological delivery systems. This research provides valuable insights into the selection and optimal design of the powertrain stages for peristaltic pumps implemented in drug delivery systems. The focus of this paper lies in the simulation and optimization of the performance of a power transmission gearbox by examining the energy consumption, sound levels, reliability, and volume as output metrics. The components of the powertrain consist of a helical gear pair for the first stage, a bevel gear pair for the second one, and finally a planetary transmission. Through extensive simulations, the model exhibits promising results, achieving an efficiency of up to 90%. Furthermore, alternative configurations were investigated to optimize the overall performance of the powertrain. This process has been simulated by employing the KISSsoft/KISSsys software package. The findings of this investigation contribute to advancements in the field of biomedical engineering and hold significant potential for improving the efficiency, reliability, and performance of drug delivery mechanisms.
