Objectives
|
Design and implementation of a control system for a wire-treatment machine based on a new technology of magnetically focused plasma. |
|
Description
|
Complete electrode power management, including the control and monitoring of all the electrical parameters of the electrodes. Control of additional units (pre-heating, cooling, preparation and maintenance of the atmosphere inside the electrodes, gas-pressure control, etc.). |
|
Innovation
|
New algorithms for power control meeting various demands (robustness at high wire speed, accuracy at low speed, fast control response during wire acceleration/deceleration to prevent wire from underheating/overheating, taking into account the variation of the process conditions within the electrodes). |
|
Benefits
|
Mastering difficult processes related to the plasma and the entirely automated control of the machine. |
