Research on virtual prototype of take-up and let-off mechatronics of new loom

Firstly the take-up and let-off mechatronics are considered as the winding and unreeling machines respectively. The mathematics model of the servo control system is set up, and the MATLAB software is used to model and simulate. Secondly the actual system has been simplified to establish mechatronics model of the system. On the made virtual prototype platform of new loom, the control toolbox of ADAMS software is used to establish control model of system, and a simulation has been made. The Control plug-in modules of ADAMS software are combined with MATLAB / Simulink to establish a unite simulation model of the mechanical and control system. The interactive simulation and analysis has been made, not only reflects the advantages of combinations of two kinds of excellent engineering software, but also achieves collaborative design strategy of the mechanical and control systems. The parameters of winding and unreeling, reducer and increaser controller have been decided. In this paper, the 3D virtual prototype of a typical mechanical transmission system (speed regulation) of the loom is completed. The modeling and simulation methods can be applied to the performance analysis and design of other system, and have important theoretical significance and practical engineering value.
