The transmission design of the carding machine should pay full attention to the starting and power consumption of the cylinder with a large moment of inertia. Choosing a reasonable transmission route and the most suitable transmission method between various motion mechanisms is necessary to ensure the accurate and reliable movement of each working mechanism of the carding machine, as well as lower power balance, and to make the appearance of the carding machine neat, easy to operate and maintain, and safe.
In the transmission design of the new carding machine, it is also necessary to consider the fast and slow speed regulation requirements of the carding function to adapt to low-speed carding and high-speed operation.
One of the main measures for designing high-yield carding machines is to improve the working speed of each carding mechanism. In theory, power consumption will increase dramatically with the square of the rotational speed of the components. After adopting the design measure of replacing the original sliding bearings with rolling bearings, the power consumption still significantly increased with the increase of cylinder speed, cotton feeding pressure, and strip capacity.
