Automation and Robotics Management in Textile Industries

IRJET, 2022

For many years, the industrial world has benefited greatly from the use of automation. High degrees of repeatability and accuracy in production tools as well as high levels of consistency and precision in work items have been required. Only for production in high volumes can economic justification be demonstrated. We need robotics-based adaptive manipulation systems to accomplish this. Robotics is no longer a niche subject; it is now a global one! As a result, the use of robotics in both the industrial sector and the textile industry has produced notable advantages. Robotics in the textile industry is used to reduce labor-intensive procedures that need a lot of human work. Robotics and automation are frequently synonyms in the textile business today.

Lectures Applications of Automation in the Textile Industry 2024-

The textile sector has long been a cornerstone of global economies, known for its labor-intensive processes and rich history. However, with the advent of automation and robotics, we are witnessing a paradigm shift that promises to enhance efficiency, reduce costs, and foster sustainability. Each chapter in this book delves into specific applications of automation and robotics across various aspects of textile production, from spinning and carding to material transportation and quality control. In these lectures, you will find in-depth discussions on the benefits of automation, including increased production rates, improved quality control, and a reduction in labor costs. We explore current trends and innovations, such as the integration of artificial intelligence and collaborative robotics, while also addressing the challenges of implementing these technologies in traditional textile mills. Moreover, this collection emphasizes the importance of sustainable practices in an industry increasingly scrutinized for its environmental impact. As you read through the chapters, we encourage you to think critically about the implications of automation and robotics on the workforce, production processes, and the future of textile manufacturing. Our goal is not only to inform but also to inspire the next generation of engineers to embrace these technologies and drive innovation in the textile sector.

Automatic Fabric Storing and Feeding in Quality Clothing Manufacture

2003

The exploitation of "intelligent" factory setups could enhance the competitiveness of the EU textile and clothes industries, by enabling collaborative design-and-manufacture options, while achieving economies of scope with effective exploitation of (strategic/tactical/execution) flexibility. Simulation turns to be reference aid for developing and acknowledging the appropriate setups and the adaptive schedules. The investigation, besides of reference concepts, summarises, for explanatory purpose, a case example related to the management of the fabric warehouse in order to grant adaptive sorting and dispatching of bolts, with on-process selective retrieval and handling of the actually used cloth, with account of fabric quality-data and of time-varying schedules. Purposely designed frontend automation rigs are required to enable the prospected upgrading options, and example robotic aids are studied, to show their actual feasibility. The considered combined-mode schedules show the benefits for prompt response leaving open middle/long horizons issues; direct checks on alternatives are provided by virtual reality tests.

Robotics and Automation in Textile Industry

International Journal of Scientific Research in Science, Engineering and Technology, 2021

For Many years, the application of automation has resulted in significant benefits to industrial world. High levels of consistency and precision in work pieces and high levels of repeatability and accuracy in manufacturing equipment have been required. Economic Justification can be shown only for large quantities of production. To achieve this, we need adaptive manipulation systems having some robotics mechanisms. Robotics is no longer a restricted field; it is a universal subject! As a result, the application of robotics in the industrial world as well as the textile industry has resulted in significant benefits. Application of robotics in textile industry is directed at minimizing human efforts in labour-intensive processes. Today automation in textile industry is often to be synonymous with Robotics. Since computer plays a key role in robotics, the word robot has a specific meaning and it has an emphasis in industry specially related to textiles.

Advanced Automation in Textile Industry Production Lines

International Journal of Engineering Applied Sciences and Technology

Textile industry is one of the few basic industries that have always been a necessary component of human life. In any study of textile fabrics the meaning of the word textile must be made clear. The dictionary states that the word is derived from the Latin word 'texere' to weave, but a wider meaning than simply that of weaving must be accepted since that is only one of various ways of making textile fabrics. One may classify it as a more glamorous industry, but whatever it is, it provides with the basic requirement called clothes. The researcher has given in this chapter all possible terms and concepts involved in textile production process. Most of these terms are technical. This chapter is an attempt to understand clear cut ideas about research topic. It gives an insight about terms that are used all around the world in context of textile industry. There are numerous kinds of fibres and other raw materials, which are used to produce a cloth. But most of them are unheard of. This chapter is designed in such a way that it is easy to understand the basics of textiles.

Applying autonomous control in apparel manufacturing

Problems caused by manual handling of garments in the apparel industry can be improved by automated data management based on radio frequency identification technology. Autonomous control can be established on top to increase the system robustness and to enable smaller production lot sizes. Different system architectures are defined for autonomous control and technical solutions are proposed to implement autonomous control in apparel manufacturing.

Automation in Garment Manufacturing Cut to Pack Process

Automation is the process or technique of completing certain activities using mechanical equipment rather than human operators during the creation of a product. To achieve automation, highly automated tools and equipment are frequently used. Integrated with high-tech technological devices, they remove human operators from a specific work and replace them with other responsibilities to support the automated system, even though automation eliminates the need for humans. Tools and Equipment Manufacturing, medical, healthcare, engineering, supply chain, and distribution are just a few examples of sectors where automation is commonly used. During the development of a product, automation is the process or technique of executing particular activities using mechanical equipment rather than human operators. Highly automated tools and equipment are regularly utilised to achieve automation. Even though automation eliminates the need for humans, they integrate high-tech technological equipment to remove human operators from certain tasks and replace them with other duties to assist the automated system. Equipment and tools manufacturing, medical, healthcare, engineering, supply chain, and distribution are just a few of the industries that use automation.
