We have developed a simulation system for judging the handling behavior of paper sheets. We investigated and classified several kinds of conditional sheets (folded, curled, torn, and wrinkled sheet) that can jam the paper handling guide. Their characteristic sizes were found by experimenting with and simulating handling behaviors, concentrating mainly on the FEM model and simulation method of a heading-fold sheet handled by a V-type guide. The system was developed by combining a 3-dimensional CAD system with the database of the sheets' FEM models. Simulated examples of conditional sheets obtained by the system demonstrate efficiency and usefulness of the system for paper handling guide design.
