AI Technical Summary
In the existing technology, circular looms have a large deviation when controlling the fold diameter of the woven fabric. The conventional method of changing the size ring cannot meet the real-time adjustment requirements. Moreover, the existing variable diameter control mechanism is complex and costly, and cannot be upgraded on the existing circular loom.
A variable diameter size ring is used. By setting a lead screw and nut driven by a geared motor on the size ring, and with the help of photoelectric sensors and PLC controller, automatic closed-loop control is realized, and the diameter of the size ring is adjusted in real time to stabilize the width of the fabric.
Effective control of fabric width fluctuations within 5mm ensures fabric quality and maintains consistent warp and weft density and strength under normal raw material formulation and process parameters.

[0002] In the plastic braiding industry, the circular weaving machine is the main equipment for plastic braiding. The folding diameter size of the woven cloth surface (the folding diameter size is half of the circumference of the woven tube cloth) is a key process parameter that needs to be controlled in the tube cloth forming process. The change of the folding diameter size directly affects the subsequent bag making, printing and other processes. At present, the common way to control the folding diameter size is to replace different specifications of the size ring to control the circumference of the woven tube cloth. However, due to the difference between the formation mechanism of the weft yarn spindle and the yarn feeding mechanism of the circular weaving machine in the shuttle body, the yarn feeding tension value is greatly different at different diameters. In addition, the accumulation of various factors such as warp and weft tension control, flat silk raw material quality and formula proportion during the weaving process also causes the weaving weft feeding point to drift, resulting in a large deviation of the folding diameter size. Therefore, it is urgent to adjust the size ring to control the folding diameter size in real time during the weaving process. However, the conventional way of replacing the size ring cannot meet the above-mentioned needs.
