Investigation of the Controlled Electrotechnical Complex of a Flow Line by Means of Fuzzy Cognitive Maps

The possibility of using fuzzy cognitive maps in the operation of the production line for the fabrication of space-filling nonwoven fabric is considered. A technique of cognitive simulation of complex dynamical objects is determined and a list of concepts that characterize the state of the flow line is presented. Modernization of the electrotechnical complex with the use of a multi-motor electric drive is proposed based on an analysis and simulation of a cognitive map. A dependence of the quality of the weave produced by a combing machine on the speed and linear density of the fibers is found. The problem of impacts against the machine case when the direction of travel of the carriages changes is solved through the use of separate electric motors that assure smooth and independent control.
