Optimization of Fast-Moving, Highly Precise Mechanisms

Frank Harmeling, Karl Mayer

The knitting motion in textile machines is generated by mechanisms. The mechanisms parts perform a periodical planar or spatial motion at high frequencies. This affords an optimal lightweight construction. This paper demonstrates how the Equivalent Static Loads Method is advantageous applied for the optimization of such systems with time-varying loads and boundary conditions. Especially the topic of an efficient automated modelling is addressed.
