Design and implementation of an automatic cable winding machine
In order to solve the problems such as low efficiency and easy damage of electrical per-formance in the maintenance of high voltage cable,which is an important part of transmission and distri-bution,the paper presents a design of automatic cable winding machine which uses a microcontroller to automatically adjust the gear for winding motion.The mechanical structure of the automatic cable winding machine uses the stepper motor and C-type gear structure to realize the winding mechanical movement.The hardware part of the control system uses sensors,microcontrollers,serial ports and digital-to-ana-log conversion processing circuits to realize the constant tension feedback system of the high voltage cable winding process.The software part meets the real-time and interactive requirements of the winding process through the operation mode and debugging mode.Three kinds of strips commonly used in the wrapping process are used to complete the actual effect test of automatic wrapping.The test results show that the automatic cable wrapping machine in this paper can ensure the constant tension during the wrap-ping process of the three kinds of materials,and the results meet the performance required for laying ca-bles,and improve the efficiency and quality of the wrapping.
