1. Basic Working Principle of Yarn Winders and Winding Machines

Yarn winders and winding machines are two critical pieces of equipment widely used in the textile industry, primarily for winding yarn from the spinning process into yarn spools. While their operation slightly differs, their fundamental goal is the same: to wind yarn uniformly and efficiently while controlling the tension.

The winding process typically begins when yarn is fed into the winder from the feeding device. The winder, or spool, is driven by a motor that rotates, and as the spool rotates, yarn is gradually wound onto it. The diameter of the spool increases as the yarn is wound, and at this stage, it is necessary to stabilize the yarn’s transport through the yarn feeding device and control the tension. To ensure the quality of the winding, the motor speed of the winder, the speed of the yarn feeding motor, and the speed of the traverse mechanism need to be adjusted. This coordination helps prevent issues such as uneven yarn tension or improper winding.

2. Core Parameter Calculation Methods

In the winding process, critical parameters such as yarn speed, yarn length, and tension directly affect the quality of the winding. To ensure an efficient and stable winding process, it is essential to accurately calculate and set these core parameters.

1. Calculation of Yarn Speed

Yarn speed refers to the linear speed at which the yarn moves through the winding device, typically measured in meters per minute (m/min). Yarn speed directly affects yarn tension and the efficiency of each winding cycle. The calculation formula is: Yarn speed(m/min)=Spool diameter(mm)×π×Chain speed(r/min)1000\text{Yarn speed} (m/min) = \frac{\text{Spool diameter} (mm) \times \pi \times \text{Chain speed} (r/min)}{1000}

Where the spool diameter (D) is the diameter of the yarn spool formed during the winding process, and the chain speed is the speed of the motor. The formula uses π\pi as the constant for calculating the circumference, and 1000 is the conversion factor from millimeters to meters. This formula allows for calculating the actual yarn speed during the winding process.

2. Calculation of Yarn Length

Yarn length refers to the total length of yarn used in each winding cycle. The formula for calculating yarn length is: Yarn length(m)=Yarn weight(g)×9000Yarn Denier(Den)\text{Yarn length} (m) = \frac{\text{Yarn weight} (g) \times 9000}{\text{Yarn Denier} (Den)}

Yarn denier is a unit of yarn density, representing the weight of 9000 meters of yarn. By knowing the yarn weight and denier, we can calculate the required winding length.

3. Tension Control

Tension is one of the most important parameters in the winding process. It directly determines the tightness and uniformity of the winding. Since the diameter of the spool changes during the winding process, yarn tension will fluctuate as well. Typically, when the spool diameter is small, the yarn tension is high, and when the spool diameter increases, the tension decreases.

To maintain stable tension, it is necessary to adjust the motor speeds of the winder and yarn feeder, and the traverse speed, which can effectively prevent the yarn from becoming too loose or too tight. The stability of tension is a key factor in the final yarn quality and affects properties such as yarn strength and elasticity.

3. Key Points for Winding and Yarn Feeding Control

The control of winding and yarn feeding involves several factors, mainly coordinating the motor speeds of the winder, yarn feeder, and traverse mechanism to ensure uniform and orderly yarn placement.

1. Winder Motor Control: The winder motor needs to adjust its speed to accommodate the increasing spool diameter. As more yarn is wound, the diameter of the spool increases, and the motor speed needs to decrease accordingly to ensure that the yarn tension does not become excessive. In this case, the sway frequency function can help adjust the frequency fluctuations, preventing tension fluctuations caused by a constant frequency.
2. Yarn Feeder Motor Control: The primary task of the yarn feeder motor is to transport the yarn from the supply device to the winder. The speed of the yarn feeder needs to be coordinated with the winder motor speed to ensure that the yarn does not become too loose or too tight. The adjustment of the yarn feeder motor speed directly affects the stability of yarn transport.
3. Traverse Mechanism Control: The traverse mechanism’s role is to adjust the yarn’s placement on the spool, ensuring each layer of yarn is laid down evenly. As the spool diameter changes, the traverse mechanism needs to adjust its speed according to preset parameters to maintain the correct yarn placement angle and density.

4. The Mechanism and Nature of Tension Stability

Tension stability is one of the most critical issues in the winding process, as any fluctuation in tension can lead to yarn breakage, slackness, or uneven winding. The stability of tension mainly relies on the following factors:

1. Adjustment of Motor Speed: By adjusting the motor speeds of the winder and yarn feeder, the yarn tension can be kept uniform throughout the winding process. If the motor speed is too high, it may cause the yarn to become too tight; if it is too low, the yarn may become slack.
2. Cooperation of the Traverse Mechanism: The control of the traverse mechanism helps to adjust the yarn’s tension distribution, especially when the spool diameter changes significantly. The traverse mechanism can balance the yarn’s tension in this case.
3. Control of Frequency Fluctuations: As mentioned earlier, the sway frequency function adjusts the motor frequency periodically to stabilize tension and ensure that yarn remains uniform throughout the winding process.
4. Real-Time Feedback and Adjustment: Although traditional winding control is mostly open-loop control, with the advancement of modern control technologies, many systems now integrate real-time monitoring and feedback mechanisms. By monitoring tension changes, the system can adjust motor speeds or traverse speeds to ensure tension remains within a preset range.

5. The Importance of Sway Frequency and Its Implementation

The sway frequency function is crucial in the winding process. By periodically adjusting the frequency fluctuations of the motor, it reduces and controls tension variations, preventing issues caused by frequent tension changes in the yarn. Modern frequency converters are generally equipped with this function, especially in the textile, spinning, and yarn winding industries. The sway frequency function has become an important method of controlling tension.

Implementation of sway frequency usually relies on the internal algorithms of modern frequency converters, which adjust the frequency periodically to simulate or adjust the mechanical motion during actual production, ultimately achieving the optimal tension distribution effect.

6. The Use of KL-626 Controller

The KL-626 controller is a commonly used device for yarn winders. Its primary function is to adjust the motor speeds, traverse motion, and tension control during the winding and yarn feeding process. The following are some key parameters and usage methods for the KL-626 controller:

1. P.01DD Winding Mode: Used to select the winding mode, such as “Continuous”, “Shut-off”, etc. Different modes can be selected according to the production needs.
2. P.02TR Running Time: Controls the running time for each cycle, i.e., the duration of each winding process. This needs to be adjusted according to actual needs.
3. P.03L1 Starting Travel: Sets the starting position of the winder. It should be adjusted based on the length of the spool and the required number of winding layers.
4. P.05F1 Starting Frequency: Sets the motor frequency at the start of the winding process. This parameter determines the initial yarn tension.
5. P.07UT Traverse Speed: Controls the speed of the traverse mechanism. This parameter adjusts the speed at which the yarn is laid on the spool, based on the spool’s diameter and the required yarn placement density.

7. Replacement and Adjustment Ideas

With advancements in technology, modern frequency converters and PLC systems have gradually replaced some functions of the KL-626 controller. The sway frequency function in modern frequency converters can directly control the winder and yarn feeder motors, while the PLC can be programmed to achieve more flexible control. Here are some suggestions for replacement and adjustment:

1. Using Modern Frequency Converters with Sway Frequency Function: Modern frequency converters with the sway frequency function can replace part of the KL-626 controller’s functions by adjusting the frequency fluctuations to stabilize yarn tension, simplifying the control system.
2. Using PLC Control Systems: PLCs can programmatically control the frequency converter’s settings, adjust speeds, and monitor tension. PLCs offer higher flexibility and customizability, which makes them suitable for applications that require customized adjustments.
3. Adjusting Key Parameters: Based on actual equipment requirements, key parameters like P.02 (running time), P.03 (starting travel), and others should be adjusted to ensure that tension is stable during the winding process, avoiding excess tightness or slackness.

8. Conclusion

The control of yarn winders and winding machines involves multiple critical parameters, with tension control being the most crucial. By optimizing the sway frequency function in modern frequency converters, adjusting motor speeds, and regulating traverse speeds, yarn tension can be stabilized during the entire winding process. The KL-626 controller, a traditional specialized controller, sets parameters to control the winding process, but modern frequency converters and PLC control systems have become important alternatives. With the help of these advanced control methods, the efficiency and quality of textile production have been significantly improved.

Introduction

In the production process of textile factories, the napping machine (also known as the wire-drawing machine or yarn-extracting machine), as key equipment, undertakes the important tasks of stretching and homogenizing fibers. It is widely used in processes such as carding and yarn extraction. The Holip HLP-A100 inverter, as a general-purpose vector inverter, with its high reliability, wide range of applications, and rich control functions, can achieve precise control of the napping machine motor. This solution will comprehensively elaborate on the specific application of the Holip HLP-A100 inverter in the napping machine, covering the application positions, wiring methods, parameter settings, control logic, and providing descriptions of the electrical wiring diagram and control schematic. Additionally, equipment such as PLCs, touch screens, or industrial computers can be introduced according to requirements to achieve more advanced control functions.

I. Equipment Situation of the Napping Machine and Motor Function Analysis

The napping machine mainly stretches and homogenizes fibers through a series of rollers (or rolls). These rollers are usually driven by motors, and some roller groups may require independent motors to achieve precise speed control and ensure a constant drawing ratio (yarn-extracting ratio) of fibers between different rollers. The napping machine mainly includes the following key components and motor functions:

• Main Stretching Roller Motor: Assumes the main stretching function and requires variable speed control to adapt to different fiber types and production requirements.
• Auxiliary Roller Motor: Used for auxiliary stretching and fiber conveying, which may run synchronously with the main motor at a fixed speed ratio.
• Conveying Motor: Responsible for conveying fibers from upstream equipment (such as carding machines) to the napping machine and conveying the processed fibers to downstream equipment (such as spinning machines).
• Tension Control Motor: Some high-end napping machines are equipped with a dedicated tension control motor to maintain fiber tension and ensure production quality.

The motors of the napping machine are usually three-phase asynchronous motors with a power range of 1.5kW – 15kW, depending on the machine size and production capacity. This solution is based on the design of a main stretching roller motor with a power of 4kW.

Introduction

The rotary cutting machine is an essential piece of equipment in the woodworking industry, primarily used to peel logs into thin veneer sheets, which are widely applied in the production of plywood, furniture, and decorative materials. To achieve efficient and precise processing, the rotary cutting machine relies on the coordinated operation of multiple motors, including the main spindle motor for log rotation, the cutting blade motor for veneer cutting, the conveyor belt motor for veneer output, and the feed motor for controlling cutting thickness. These motors require precise speed and torque control to ensure processing quality and production efficiency. As a versatile electrical device capable of flexibly controlling motor operation, the inverter plays a critical role in the rotary cutting machine.

This article provides a detailed explanation of how to apply the Mobeck MT110 inverter to various motor control aspects of a rotary cutting machine, covering functional analysis, inverter selection, wiring design, parameter settings, and the integration of PLC and touchscreen systems. Through a well-designed and implemented solution, the rotary cutting machine can achieve efficient, stable, and automated operation, meeting the demands of modern woodworking processes.

Functional Analysis of the Rotary Cutting Machine

The primary task of a rotary cutting machine is to process logs into veneer sheets, involving log fixation and rotation, cutting by the blade, veneer output, and precise control of cutting thickness. Below is a detailed analysis of the main motor functions in a rotary cutting machine:

1. Main Spindle Motor (Rotation Function)

• Function: The main spindle motor drives the log to rotate, serving as the core power component of the rotary cutting machine.
• Characteristics: It requires high power, typically ranging from 5.5 kW to 15 kW (depending on the machine size), and needs stable speed output while allowing dynamic speed adjustments based on processing requirements.
• Control Requirements: The inverter must support vector control mode to ensure high torque output at low speeds and be capable of receiving external speed reference signals (e.g., from a PLC or potentiometer).

2. Cutting Blade Motor (Cutting Function)

• Function: This motor drives the cutting blade to peel the rotating log into veneer sheets.
• Characteristics: The power typically ranges from 3 kW to 7.5 kW, with speed adjustments required based on veneer thickness, and stable torque support during cutting.
• Control Requirements: The inverter needs fast start/stop capabilities and precise speed control, often requiring synchronization with the main spindle motor.

3. Conveyor Belt Motor (Conveying Function)

• Function: It ensures the smooth output of cut veneer sheets, maintaining production continuity.
• Characteristics: The power is relatively low, typically between 0.75 kW and 2.2 kW, with speed needing to match the cutting rhythm.
• Control Requirements: The inverter should support simple speed regulation and may need to operate in coordination with the cutting blade motor.

4. Feed Motor (Feed Function)

• Function: It controls the feed speed of the cutting blade or log, directly determining the veneer thickness.
• Characteristics: The power is low (0.75 kW to 1.5 kW), and it can be either an asynchronous motor or a servo motor, requiring high-precision speed control.
• Control Requirements: If using an asynchronous motor, the inverter must support high-precision speed regulation and accept external analog signal inputs; if using a servo motor, a dedicated servo drive is required.

5. Other Auxiliary Motors

• Function: These include motors for clamping devices, chip removal fans, etc., used to assist the processing operation.
• Characteristics: The power is low (0.37 kW to 1.5 kW), with simple control requirements, typically needing only basic start/stop functions.

From the above analysis, it is clear that the motor control requirements of a rotary cutting machine are diverse. The main spindle and cutting blade motors demand high-performance control, while the conveyor belt and feed motors prioritize speed stability and precision. The Mobeck MT110 inverter, with its flexible control modes and rich functionality, is an ideal choice to meet these requirements.

Abstract

• Studies indicate that frequency converters can be applied to the feeding, pre-milling, trimming, and polishing functions of edge banding machines, improving efficiency and quality.
• Evidence suggests that frequency converters require integration with PLCs and touchscreens for automated control, with parameter settings adjusted based on motor characteristics.
• It appears that wiring and parameter configuration can be complex, necessitating professional technical support to ensure safe operation.

Background and Functional Analysis

Edge banding machines are essential woodworking equipment in furniture manufacturing, with primary functions including pre-milling, gluing, feeding, pressing, cutting, trimming, and polishing. Frequency converters (Variable Frequency Drives, VFDs) enable precise motor speed control, optimizing the efficiency and accuracy of these processes. Based on the specific requirements of edge banding machines, frequency converters can be applied to the feeding motor, pre-milling motor, trimming motor, and polishing motor.

Application Scheme Overview

The application scheme for frequency converters includes motor allocation, wiring methods, parameter settings, and control system design. Research shows that the feeding motor typically operates at 50 Hz, while pre-milling and polishing motors require high-frequency operation (e.g., 185 Hz and 190 Hz), and the trimming motor supports coarse and fine trimming modes (80 Hz and 102 Hz). Additionally, a PLC (e.g., Siemens S7-1200) and a touchscreen (e.g., Weinview MT8071iE) can achieve automated control and parameter adjustment, which seems particularly important for enhancing operational convenience.

Unexpected Detail: Complex Wiring and Safety Considerations

An unanticipated detail is that frequency converter wiring involves power input (R, S, T), motor output (U, V, W), and control terminals (DI1-DI5, AI1, etc.), requiring proper grounding (PE) to prevent electrical leakage. Parameter settings necessitate motor auto-tuning, and initial commissioning may require professional technical support, adding to the implementation complexity.

Detailed Research Report: Frequency Converter Application and Control Scheme Design in Edge Banding Machines

Introduction

Edge banding machines are indispensable in furniture manufacturing, performing processes such as pre-milling, gluing, feeding, pressing, cutting, trimming, and polishing. Frequency converters (VFDs) significantly enhance the operational efficiency, machining quality, and energy savings of edge banding machines by adjusting motor speeds. This report designs a frequency converter application scheme based on the specific functions of an edge banding machine, covering motor allocation, wiring methods, parameter settings, and control system selection, aiming to provide comprehensive technical guidance.

Functional Analysis of Edge Banding Machines

Based on a typical edge banding machine model (e.g., IGOLDENCNC KT-468), its main functions include:

• Pre-milling: Trims the edge of the panel to ensure flatness.
• Gluing: Applies hot-melt glue to the panel edge for bonding the edge band.
• Feeding and Pressing: Feeds the panel steadily via a conveyor belt and presses the edge band onto the panel.
• Cutting: Cuts off excess edge band.
• Trimming: Includes coarse and fine trimming to level the edge band with the panel.
• Scraping: Smooths the edge band, removing burrs.
• Polishing: Enhances the surface finish of the edge band.

From the operational requirements, feeding demands stable low-speed operation, pre-milling and polishing require high-speed operation, and trimming needs multi-speed switching. These characteristics highlight the critical role of frequency converters in precise motor speed control.

Frequency Converter and Motor Allocation

Based on the functional modules of the edge banding machine and the number of frequency converters (four converters shown in the image), the motor allocation scheme is as follows:

• Converter 1 (F 50.0 Hz): Controls the feeding motor, operating at a lower frequency (50 Hz) for stable operation.
• Converter 2 (F 185 Hz): Controls the pre-milling motor, requiring high-speed operation (approximately 10,000 RPM or more).
• Converter 3 (F 102 Hz): Controls the trimming motor, supporting coarse trimming (80 Hz) and fine trimming (102 Hz).
• Converter 4 (F 190 Hz): Controls the polishing motor, requiring high-speed operation (approximately 10,000 RPM or more).

The cutting motor and gluing motor may be directly controlled by relays, as their speed requirements are lower.

Wiring Scheme Design

Frequency converter wiring includes power input, motor output, and control terminal wiring. Using the INVT frequency converter as an example, the details are as follows:

1. Functional Analysis of the Winding Machine Traverse System

The traverse system of a winding machine typically requires the following functions:

• Main Winding Motor: Drives the reel to rotate, completing the material winding process.
• Traverse Motor: Drives the traverse device to move left and right, ensuring even material distribution on the reel.
• Tension Control: Maintains constant material tension during winding to avoid stretching or slackening.
• Speed Synchronization: The traverse motor’s movement speed must synchronize with the main winding motor’s speed to match the material winding speed.
• Position Control: The traverse device must reciprocate based on the reel width, with left and right limit settings.
• Start/Stop Control: Controls the start and stop of winding and traversing via external signals (e.g., buttons or PLC).
• Fault Protection: Detects faults such as overload, phase loss, or overcurrent, stopping the system for protection.

A typical winding machine traverse device includes a main winding motor (driving the winding drum) and a traverse device (achieving left-right movement through a lead screw). We will use the 900 series frequency converters to control the main winding motor and the traverse motor.

2. Motor Selection and Function Assignment

2.1 Main Winding Motor

• Function: Drives the reel to rotate, completing material winding.
• Motor Selection: Based on the winding machine’s load and reel diameter, we assume a 4kW three-phase asynchronous motor (380V) is required. From the inverter model table on page 5 of the manual, we select the 900-0040G1 model (suitable for a 4kW motor, rated output current 18A).

5. Control Logic Design

5.1 Speed Synchronization Logic

• The traverse motor’s speed must synchronize with the main winding motor’s speed. Assuming the reel diameter is (D), material thickness is (t), and reel speed is (n) (rpm), the material winding linear speed is:
  [
  v = \pi \cdot D \cdot n
  ]
• The traverse device’s movement speed (v_{\text{traverse}}) must match (v). Assuming the lead screw pitch is (p) and the traverse motor speed is (n_{\text{traverse}}), then:
  [
  v_{\text{traverse}} = p \cdot n_{\text{traverse}}
  ]
• Thus, the traverse motor speed should be:
  [
  n_{\text{traverse}} = \frac{\pi \cdot D \cdot n}{p}
  ]
• The PLC calculates (n_{\text{traverse}}) and outputs the corresponding frequency signal (0-10V) to the traverse inverter’s AI1 terminal.

5.2 Reciprocating Motion Control

• The traverse device uses left and right limit switches to control reciprocating motion:
• When the traverse device reaches the left limit, the left limit switch opens, DI1 signal fails, the inverter stops forward rotation, and DI2 triggers reverse rotation.
• When the traverse device reaches the right limit, the right limit switch opens, DI2 signal fails, the inverter stops reverse rotation, and DI1 triggers forward rotation.

5.3 Tension Control

• Tension control can be achieved by fine-tuning the main winding motor’s speed. For more precise tension control, a tension sensor can be added, with the PLC collecting tension signals to dynamically adjust the main winding motor’s speed.

6. PLC and HMI Selection and Application

6.1 Necessity of PLC and HMI

• Calculates the traverse inverter’s target frequency and writes to register 0x01.
