Wire tension as well as wire feed should be controlled tightly for the geometry and corner accuracy of wire-EDM. A closed-loop wire tension control system for Micro-Wire-EDM is presented to guarantee a smooth wire transport and a constant tension value. To keep smooth wire transportation and avoid wire breakage during wire feeding, the reel roller is modified and the clip reel is removed from the wire transport mechanism. A genetic algorithm-based fuzzy logic controller (FLC) is proposed to investigate the dynamic performance of the closed-loop wire tension control system. Theoretical analysis and experimental research demonstrate that the developed wire transport system can result in satisfactory transient response, steady-state response and robustness. The proposed FLC can obtain faster transient response and smaller steady-state error than PI controller.

Traditional proportional–integral–derivative (PID) control performance optimization is an essential method to improve a loom’s warp tension control performance. This work proposes an improved genetic algorithm optimized PID control scheme to overcome the decline in control performance of the traditional PID control algorithm in a loom’s warp tension control system. Through the decoupling analysis of loom motion mechanism, the establishment of warp tension model and the optimization of fitness evaluation mechanism of genetic algorithm can effectively overcome the problems of local optimal solution and algorithm degradation of genetic algorithm. Simulation experiments were carried out with the traditional PID, the integral separation PID, and the genetic PID in warp tension control. The results show the advantage of the genetic-PID algorithm to control warp tension stability. Ultimately, according to the functional characteristics of the loom mechanism, a tension control platform for experimental studies was established. The test results show that the maximum fluctuation range of warp tension is within [−2, +6] at the test speed of 850 rpm, which meets the requirements of long-term stable and reliable control of warp tension under different weaving conditions.

Track tension is closely related to the maneuverability of tracked vehicles and the durability of their tracks and suspension systems. The tension needs to be maintained at an optimum level throughout the maneuver in order to minimize the excessive load on the tracks and to prevent track peeloff from the sprocket. In this paper, a track tension control system is developed for tracked vehicles which are subject to various maneuvering tasks. It consists of track tension estimator, track tension controller, and hydraulic unit. The tension around the idler and sprocket is estimated in real time, respectively. Using the estimated track tension and considering the highly nonlinear vehicle characteristics, a fuzzy logic controller is designed in order to control the track tension in the vehicles. The performance of the proposed tension control system is verified through simulation and experimental field tests.

<p class="Author"><span>It is known that controlling the speed of a three phase Induction Motor (IM) under different operating conditions is an important task and this can be accomplished through the process of controlling the applied voltage on its stator circuit. Conventional Proportional- Integral- Differeantional (PID) controller takes long time in selecting the error signal gain values. In this paper a hybrid Fuzzy Logic Controller (FLC) with Genetic Algorithm (GA) is proposed to reduce the selected time for the optimized error signal gain values and as a result inhances the controller and system performance. The proposed controller FL with GA is designed, modeled and simulated using MATLAB/ software under different load torque motor operating condition. The simulation result shows that the closed loop system performance efficiency under the controller has a maximum value of 95.92%. In terms of efficiency and at reference speed signal of 146.53 rad/sec, this system performance shows an inhancement of 0.67%,0.49% and 0.05% with respect to the closed loop system efficiency performance of the PID, FL, and PID with GA controllers respectively. Also the simulation result of the well designed and efficient GA in speeding up the process of selecting the gain values, makes the system to have an efficiency improvement of 14.42% with respect to the open loop system performance.</span></p>

Nowadays, wire sawing becomes the most advanced brittle crystals slicing technology because of its advantages of slicing larger crystals ingots into very small thickness, high surface quality, high yield wafers. In the process, the thin wire, which is the processing tools, travels at high speed, and subjects to external excitation from many aspects. Wire saw tension control is the core and difficulty of the control system. Mathematical models of tension subsystems were studied. The control strategy of swing arm motor tension direct closed-loop combination of speed difference indirect closed-loop was proposed. The developed tension control hardware and software system reached the functional requirements and technical indicators, and constant tension precision control was solved effectively.
