Real material behavior.
Measured for digital engineering.
MOTUS is a measurement system developed by SADEN for the reproducible characterization of bulk materials.
It captures how particles and granular materials behave under defined motion conditions and transforms physical material behavior into structured engineering data.
The resulting information provides a reliable basis for simulation calibration, process evaluation and the development of robust industrial solutions.
What MOTUS provides
Material-specific data
for simulation and engineering
MOTUS supports the characterization of bulk materials by recording their response under defined test conditions.
The system is designed to generate consistent datasets that can be used to:
​
· Calibrate particle simulations:
Determine realistic input parameters for DEM and other particle-based simulation methods.
· Compare materials:
Identify differences between material batches, particle variants or operating conditions.
· Validate simulation models:
Compare simulated particle behavior with reproducible physical measurements.
· Evaluate process suitability:
Assess how a material behaves during conveying, filling, mixing or other particle-handling processes.
