- A correlation between the magnetic flux density and achieved acceleration to overcome the adhesive forces/strength of the particle structure was determined. At a magnetic flux density of B = 38.5 mT, accelerations of |a| = 30–70 m·s−2 were achieved, depending on the position along the fiber;
- The experiments have shown that the regeneration of compact particle structures mainly results in the fracture of the contact points between the individual particles;
- The achieved degrees of regeneration at these parameters depend on fiber loading and fiber orientation to the gravity field. For the horizontal fiber orientation, after three deflections of the fiber against a stop, regeneration degrees of 96% at low fiber loadings (h = 0.25 mm) and of 86% at an increased fiber loading (h = 0.5 mm) were found. Especially at the horizontal fiber orientation with a higher particle structure, a reattachment of already detached particle structures was observed. Therefore, the degree of regeneration in the first regeneration event is lower than in the case of the lower particle structure. In addition, high fragmentation of the detached particle structure was observed at this orientation;
- For the vertical fiber orientation, regeneration degrees of 87% for the lower particle structure (h = 0.25 mm) and regeneration degrees of 93% for the higher particle structure (h = 0.5 mm) were determined. Due to the higher inertia of the higher particle structure (h = 0.5 mm), detachment occurs more easily than with the lower particle structure. Additionally, only slight fragmentation was observed in the vertical orientation of the fiber;
- Regardless of the orientation of the fiber, the degree of regeneration is only slightly improved after the second deflection. Consequently, there appears to be an optimum between the achievable degree of regeneration and the energy consumption for the investigated parameters.
