Main Impression

Thank you for your patience while I revised this manuscript. I appreciate the topic and find it relevant to develop an I the mathematical model of the motion of a cut beet tops particle M, along with the conveying and unloading system of a beet tops harvesting machine. I reviewed your manuscript to assess its quality and suitability for this journal. I appreciate the topic and the research effort you put into this research. Overall, the article has a coherent structure.

I recommend that authors improve the beginning of the abstract. The problem that will be investigated remains to be clarified.

At the end of the introduction, I recommend that authors add what will be covered in the next sections of the manuscript.

I recommend that authors split the "3. Results and Discussion" section.

I recommend that authors develop a discussion section in the manuscript. This needs to be done to discuss the evidence identified in this research in relation to other studies in the area.

I recommend that the authors add a table with the advantages and disadvantages of this system in relation to other cases identified in the literature - this will improve the originality and quality of the paper.

I recommend that the authors improve the conclusion of the manuscript. It remains to be added what are the limitations of this research.

Round 2

Reviewer 2 Report

Hello dear authors,

I appreciate the effort you made in this review. Many recommendations I had were adjusted in this new version of the manuscript. However, I am still not satisfied with the discussion section of this paper. I recommend that authors relate the evidence from this work to existing studies in the area. This comparison between research and researchers needs to appear in this section. Furthermore, I recommend adding a table on the advantages and disadvantages of this system in relation to what already exists in the literature.

A small English language edit is needed in the "discussion" section.
