A new technique for determination the machine timing, shuttle location and shuttle speed by using electronic triggers

الملخص EN

It is necessary to determine the start and the end of the machine cycle of the loom, because it will facilitate the investigation of the behavior of the loom during the machine cycle.

An instrument was developed to determine the machine cycle electronically.

This instrument consisted of a light switch which could be made of different shapes to fit the different parts of the loom where needed.

Two types of the light switch were made and used in this work, type (E) and type (F).

Both types were used in this work.

Type (E) was used to determine the start and the end of two machines cycled.

Type (F) was used to determine the shuttle locations during its flight through the warp shed and the shuttle speed inside the shuttle box.

The results obtained gave accurate and valuable knowledge about machine timing and shuttle locations at any milli second through the machine cycle.
