Automatic monitoring and control for the pultrusion process

Objetivo



The pultrusion process still needs substantial operator skill to compensate for the complex interacting variables which occur in materials and operating parameters. This results in higher costs, variable quality, reject non-recy-clable scrap and limits the market for high quality structural applications where the benefits of structural integrity and durability are most needed. This research project will develop a comprehensive monitoring system, an accurate process model and an experimental process control system capable of continuous control with minimum operator intervention. Specific project tasks will include condition monitoring and management of Reinforcements; Resin system mixing and feed to the impregnation stage; Die temperature profile monitoring and rapid response thermal control, coupled with die pressure and axial forces; Resin cure state and product quality monitoring. A process model will be developed to relate the process variables to product throughput and quality for a range of resin and reinforcement systems. The experimental control system will ensure that any operator inputs are constrained to be both timely and consistent with the defined process manage-ment strategy. The monitoring and management system will be operated with a range of materials to quantify benefits and to validate and refine the process model and control strategy.
