Abstract
Method of diagnosing failures in a production process of a synthetic filament yarn, in which a first process parameter dependent on the process control is continuously measured and evaluated, and in which as a function of the evaluation or course derived therefrom an indication signal is generated, there being continuously measured and evaluated at least a second reference parameter dependent on the process control, and the indication signal being generated, when an error-typical behavior is found in the first and in at least one additional parameter.
Claims9
A method of processing a continuous synthetic filament material while monitoring its quality, and comprising the steps of
- performing a production process which includes advancing a continuous synthetic filament material along a path of travel and winding the advancing filament material into a package,
- monitoring a first parameter which is dependent on the production process or the package and generating a first output signal which is a function of the monitored first parameter, and wherein the first parameter comprises the tension of the advancing material measured at a predetermined location along the advance of the material,
- monitoring at least a second further parameter which is dependent on the production process or the package and generating a second output signal which is a function of the monitored second parameter, and
- generating an indication signal whenever the first output signal and at least the second output signal indicate an error typical behavior.
A method of processing a continuous synthetic filament material while monitoring its quality, and comprising the steps of
- performing a production process which includes advancing a continuous synthetic filament material along a path of travel, gathering the advancing material to form an advancing yarn, winding the advancing yarn into a package, and contacting the advancing yarn with a godet upstream of the winding step,
- monitoring the yarn tension upstream of the godet and generating a first output signal which is a function of the monitored upstream yarn tension,
- monitoring the yarn tension downstream of the godet and generating a second output signal which is a function of the monitored downstream yarn tension, and
- generating an indication signal whenever the first output signal and the second output signal indicate an error typical behavior.
A method of producing a continuous synthetic filament material while monitoring its quality, and comprising the steps of
- performing a production process which includes extruding a thermoplastic material so as to form a plurality of continuous synthetic filaments, advancing the filaments along a path of travel, gathering the advancing material to form an advancing yarn, and then winding the advancing yarn into a package,
- monitoring a first parameter of the advancing yarn which is dependent on the production process or the package and generating a first output signal which is a function of the monitored first parameter,
- monitoring a second further parameter of the advancing yarn which is dependent on the production process or the package and generating a second output signal which is a function of the monitored second parameter, and
- generating an indication signal whenever the first output signal and at least the second output signal indicate an error typical behaviors
- wherein the step of performing a production process further includes contacting the advancing yarn with a godet upstream of the winding step, and wherein the first parameter comprises the yarn tension upstream of the godet and the second further parameter comprises the yarn tension downstream of the godet.
