Fuzzy Logic Control (Flc) for a Yarn Conditioning System

Abstract

Conditioning machines have a wide use in the textile industry. For this reason, it is important to control the conditioning machines precisely. Fuzzy logic control has found successful application areas in the control of electrical machines. In this study, fuzzy logic control was used to control the conditioning system. In the computer aided conditioning experiment setup developed for this purpose, information is received via sensors, the measurement values are directly transferred to the computer, and the control of the system is done via the computer. Different experimental measurements were used to evaluate the reliability of FLC. In this study, 100% cotton selected in the most used number range in the market. Yarns in a vacuum environment with saturated steam at different pressures and temperatures. Measurements were taken one hour after conditioning 1 day then repeat after 1 week, after 2 weeks, and after 3 week. A fuzzy model of the yarn conditioning system was created using experimental data. Control of the conditioning machines with fuzzy logic controller (controller) has been done successfully. It has been observed that the fuzzy logic controller works very well, catches the desired set value in a short time and keeps the system at this value.
