The optimization of the interaction between tillage tools and soil is an intensively
researched field due to both economic and environmental reasons. Even a small increase
in efficiency during tillage can lead to significant energy savings due to the large
areas involved. Moreover, the proper design of tillage tools is crucial for maintaining
soil health. The aim of this research is to model the geometry of a sweep tool with
a parametric design, defined by freeform surfaces. The Blender Geometry Nodes (GN)
tool was used to create the geometry. The parametrically designed sweep tool is defined
by 14 parameters. Its 3D model enables geometric optimization through numerical simulations,
such as the discrete element method (DEM), and serves as a basis for manufacturing.
The results of this research contribute to the development of more cost-effective
and environmentally friendly tillage tools in the future.
