Simulation Model of the Weaving Machine 'Camel” and Selection of the Sufficient Driving Motor

摘要

The paper deals with the mathematical model of the waving machine CAMEL. This machine consists of many moving parts (rotational and translational movements), belts, flexible elements and therefore it is very complex. CAMEL uses servomotors working in electronic cam regime. It means that the actual angular velocity of the rotor is not constant and therefore it is really important to reduce the moment of inertia of rotating elements. The inertia of the rotor of the drive is very important too. Existing simulation model can help to choose the optimal drive of the machine. It also allows selecting the best displacement laws for different speeds (rpm) in order to decrease the effective torque which is proportional to the heating of the servomotor.
