“…To ensure a reliable evaluation, the metered materials were evaluated by groups of components (concentrated and bulk ones) [13]. Taking into account the fact that the use of robotic platforms for the feed mixture distribution is gaining popularity every year [14], the dynamic monitoring of feed mixture distribution also increases the relevance of studies of the effectiveness of weight control systems (metering) [15,16].…”

The study purpose is to determine the operational efficiency of the on-board weight control system using the technological process of preparing the feed mixture as an example. The Daily TMR Manager, an on-board weight control system, consisting of communication components, digital indicators with information on the display installed in the operator’s cab (of the mixer-and-distributor) and loader operator, and the “Feeding Management” software package were used as a means of controlling the technological process of preparing the feed mixture. The recorded data were transmitted via Internet resources to a cloud storage that provides round-the-clock access to information. The process of evaluating the performance of the weighing system involved loading stalky bulk and loose concentrated components of the feed mixture. Analyzing the evaluation results of the weight control protocols with the recorded data, the authors have determined the influence of human-machine interaction on accuracy, and revealed that the material dosing error increases inversely with the dosed material mass. To improve the operational characteristics of on-board weight control systems it is recommended to install weight sensors on the loader boom to reduce the error when dispensing materials and increase the operator’s response speed.

Abstract. A horizontal mixer can realize the cutting and mixing of coarse and fine feeds and achieve the purpose of scientific feeding. Studying the wear resistance of the mixer blades can improve the service life of a horizontal mixer. The wear performance of blades made of three different materials (manganese steel, tool steel, and spring steel) was studied under laboratory conditions and working conditions. In laboratory conditions, the wear scar morphology and surface elements were analyzed by means of three-dimensional topography, scanning electron microscopy, and energy spectrum analysis. The results show that the friction coefficient, wear quality, and surface roughness of manganese steel blades had the lowest values of 0.49158, 0.0061 mg, and 4.341 µm in three groups of tests. In working conditions, the wear amount and surface roughness of the manganese steel blades in different zones of the mixer were the lowest. In addition, electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) results showed that the grain size of the manganese steel blades was the smallest. Therefore, compared with the tool steel and spring steel blades, the manganese steel blades showed excellent wear resistance.HighlightsThe wear characteristics of horizontal mixer blades with different materials were studied.The wear characteristics of the blades were studied under laboratory and working conditions.The effect of grain on the wear performance of the blades was studied by electron backscatter diffraction. Keywords: Blade, Grain, Horizontal mixer, Wear resistance, Wear test.
