These cause detrimental effects in conveying process and decrease the durability of chains. To study the vibrations, a multi-body simulation model has been developed, in which rheological elements are used to represent the dynamic effects. A focus was determining material values required for the model. These were identified by hysteresis experiments. Finally, the model was verified by comparing simulation results with measurements in the conveyor system.} }
