EN In this paper the model of four degree-of-freedom mechanical sliding system with dry friction is considered. One of the components of the mentioned system rides on driving belt, which is driven at constant velocity. This model corresponds to a row of carriage laying on a guideway, which moves at constant velocity with respect to the guideway as a foundation. From a mathematical point of view the analyzed problem is governed by four second order differential equations of motion, and numerical analysis is performed in Mathematica software. Some interesting behaviors are detected and reported using Phase Portraits, Poincaré Maps and Lyapunov Exponents. Moreover, Power Spectral Densities obtained by the Fast Fourier Transform technique are reported. The presented results show different behaviors of the system, including periodic, quasi-periodic and chaotic orbits.
