Abstract

Handling of materials is extensively used in industrial applications such as production lines and product assembly. It is demanded to test the friction coefficient to secure the gripping process, where the grip force can be minimized by increasing friction coefficient. The aim of the present study is to rank the materials of the gloves based on their friction coefficient in order to increase the safety of material handling. Friction measurement was carried out. Five different glove materials of were tested by sliding against steel, glass and wood sheets at dry, water and detergent wet conditions.
 
The experiments revealed that polyamide, polyester and polyethylene glycol gloves are suitable to handle steel sheets, while polyethylene glycol and aniline formal resin coated gloves are convenient for handling glass. Handling wood surfaces can achieved safely by polyethylene glycol and polyamide gloves. The relatively high variation in the friction values in different sliding conditions confirms the proper selection of the glove materials.
