# Industrial Specification: Material Feed Mechanism

## 1. Technical Definition
A mechanical system that precisely advances leather material through an industrial stitching machine.

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **0.5-2.0 m/min feed rate, 10-50 N tension force, ±0.1 mm positioning accuracy**. Failure boundary: **Tension force exceeding 75 N causes material slippage, feed rate below 0.3 m/min causes stitch bunching, positioning error beyond ±0.3 mm causes misalignment**, Mechanism: **Coulomb friction limit between feed rollers and leather (μ=0.25-0.35) determines maximum tension; stepper motor microstepping resolution (1.8°/200 steps) governs positioning accuracy; belt drive elasticity (Young's modulus 2.1 GPa) affects rate stability**.

### 2.1 Analytical Physics Model
Governed by the **Tractive Power & Resistance Model**:

> **Primary Equation**: $P = \frac{F \cdot v}{\eta}$  
> **Engineering Impact**: Ensures motor torque capacity exceeds operational inertia.
