Dynamic analysis of Cam driven Sley mechanism

Abstract

Today looms work at high speeds. For instance, speed reaches greater than 1000 cycles/minute in air jet looms. This situation requires some precautions like mass balancing in order to prevent vibrations In this study, by making dynamic analysis on a loom which have a cam driven sley mechanism, the forces acting on the mechanism and the bearing forces that cause vibrations are provided. And they were presented as graphics with respect to the main cam shaft rotation angle.
