Abstract
Described is a method for operating a winding machine used for winding up and/or unwinding a winding material, said winding machine comprising a device for controlling and/or regulating the winding process. A variable value is monitored that concerns a machine state and/or a change in the winding material, and at least one parameter of said controlling and/or regulating device is modified in accordance with the change identified.
Claims4
A method for operating a winding machine, comprising:
- providing a controller to control the winding;
- monitoring a set of variable values related to a change of a winding material and to a change of a state of the winding, wherein a first variable value is a tractive force acting on the winding material that is sensed by a traction measuring device, wherein at least one second variable value is selected from the group consisting of a thickness of the winding material and a coefficient of friction of the winding material;
- identifying a fault condition caused by an external interference signal, based on a determined change of at least one the variable values;
- and
- modifying a parameter of the controller when a fault condition is identified, wherein the modification of the of the controller parameter provides a compensation for the external interference signal.
