Abstract

This paper has as subject, in a first stage, the experimental study of dynamic friction coefficients between the links of a toothed chain (steel) and two chain guides, made from PAx and PA66, in lubricated conditions. Then there are highlighted the characteristics of the contact area between the toothed links and the guide fragments by using the finite element method. At the end of the paper there are presented the conclusions regarding the tests and the finite element modelling of the frictional contact between the chain link and the PAx.
