The objective of the work was   to   provide investigators of the textile area with hardware and software to ease the investigation on the dynamical behaviour of the following sewing parameters:  force on needle bar,  presser- foot and   thread tensions. It should also have   enough flexibility to incorporate further signal entries, and provide the user with tools to ease the gathering and analysis of tests on different    materials, sewing speeds and machine configurations and settings. Outputs   for actuators to implement closed-loop control strategies are also available. The paper will present an overview of the system, which  is a  development of earlier  hardware and software and will focus on the results concerning the measurement of the force on the needle-bar, parameter is important to  investigate on needle penetration force in fabrics during sewing. Several signal-processing implemented and tested algorithms, that aim to automate  the detection of some characteristics, will be described. The purpose of this system, that implements some novel strategies, is to develop an add-on kit  to apply to different sewing machines, but presently it has been implemented on a PC as a  quality assessment system  which  will be used  by textile technicians to build a quality database.<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vssewingmachine.in\/\">VS Sewing Machines <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> Present   trends in the  textile   industry  point  to  the reduction of the order  sizes and to greater  demands on shorter delivery times and higher quality. This factor  leads  apparel  manufacturers to  adopt new management strategies to enable a quick market response. On the  other hand,  in  the  sewing room, manufacturers must  be  able to quickly  reconfigure  their   production system and equipments to cope with the rapidly changing needs of the materials that are being processed. The setting of sewing machines can, in this context, be a  task that introduces si@icant time loss, as sewing technicians  set the machines on base of experience and empirical   methods. A scientifical   approach   to   the behaviour of sewing parameters has been undertaken only in  the  last  few years [l-41 and has revealed  itself to be extremely difficult. A. Objectives The present  project aims to  accomplish the  following To  ease  the  acquisition,  storage  and visualisation of the different signals acquired; To  provide the  user  with  analysis  tools  other than a simple time representation of the signals; To investigate on the usefulness of analysis tools used in other signal processing areas; To be   itself a modular system, with   expandable hardware so as to make it possible to accommodate other signal sources in addition to the ones considered at this moment, and also adding outputs for a  control system based on the  information collected in the first stages of this work. The-aim   is  to  produce an add-on kit applicable  to different sewing machines <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vssewingmachine.in\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/arms10.org\/publication\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/juki_MO-6816S-5-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"feature extraction in high-speed sewing\" class=\"wp-image-128\" srcset=\"https:\/\/arms10.org\/publication\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/juki_MO-6816S-5-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/arms10.org\/publication\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/juki_MO-6816S-5-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/arms10.org\/publication\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/juki_MO-6816S-5-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/arms10.org\/publication\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/juki_MO-6816S-5-1536x1023.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/arms10.org\/publication\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/juki_MO-6816S-5.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p> 11. HARDWARE A. Sensors Two types of sensors were used to  measure the above stated parameters: 0 Piezoelectric washers Nstler) were built directly into the needle and presser-foot bars to  measure force on these components; 0 The    sensing of thread tensions was achieved measuring the strain in cantilever beams  put into  the thread paths, as close as possible to the needle and loopers. Since quick variations on all of these parameters were expected, it was  necessary to select  components  with  a proper bandwidth. The piezoelectric  sensors selected  have   a resonant frequency in the order of 200 KHZ, which lies very  much above the maximum  working frequency of the machine (7500 rpm = 125 Hz). In the case of the thread tension sensors, semiconductor strain gages were used to measure the  strain produced in the beam. Calculation of the dimensions of a beam with a  natural frequency of 5 KHz or above showed that  the  strain produced on its surface for the expected force values (max. 500 cN) would be too small to be picked up  adequately by resistive strain gauges. Semiconductor strain gauges were used instead. This kind of strain gauge  has a  poorer performance concerning temperature drift and electromagnetic interference, but    a much higher sensitivity. The sensor, manufactured by a Czech development institute, revealed to have very low temperature  and mechanical drift, good frequency response and sensitivity. B. Data acquisition Hardware The hardware is divided into two blocks: 0 A Data Acquisition-board plugged in a PC 0 External signal conditioning hardware for the sensors. For the data acquisition, a LAB-PC+ board   from National  Instruments  was selected,   already   tested in earlier experimentation. This board, although simple and economic, supports a  sequential sampling of 8 analog channels at 83.33 KHz , features 3 parallel  digital 1\/0 ports and 2 analogue output channels. Concerning the signal conditioning circuitry,   the ollowing requirements should be met: 0 All signal  amplifiers should be  gain programmable, since  significant  variations of the  signals&#8217; amplitudes are expected due to the testing at different  sewing speeds and with different materials. Use of the LAB- PC&#8217;s own gain programming is to be avoided because at higher gains settling times of the board&#8217;s amplifiers and sample-and-hold circuits do not allow high sample rates. 0 The signal conditioning  board for the piezoelectric sensors should  include a   peak   detector for sensor calibration (as explained in Section 1II.C.)Addition of new signal conditioning boards should be possible in a simple way; 0 One of the boards  should include conditioning of a signal coming from the machme motor: This &#8220;synchronisation signal&#8221;  delivers a  pulse at a  specific point of the sewing cycle (stitch) and is fed into  the data  acquisition board to trigger  acquisitions and to provide data to measure sewing speed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vssewingmachine.in\/\">https:\/\/www.vssewingmachine.in\/ <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/g.page\/vssewing?share\">https:\/\/g.page\/vssewing?share<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>feature extraction in high-speed sewing This paper presents the development of a signal acquisition and analysis equipment for measurement of sewing parameters on a high-speed overlock sewing machine.
