I am designing a frisbee pickup unit and I am wondering about what kind of materials your team has found to have a high coefficient of friction with the frisbee. If you have exact findings I would like the coeffecient to be higher than .138 because that is the coeffecient of friction between the frisbee and the pick up unit base.
.138 is quite low. Just about any traditional high traction material, like nitrile tread, rubber, polycord, etc. should work. Prototype and experiment to find the best solution, and remember that intake geometry is as, or more, important than raw traction.
We’ve had success with VEX intake rollers, operating in a unique geometry.
