  • Abstract
    The textile industry requires complex drive and control systems in the areas of bleaching, finishing, and dyeing processes. Electrical system designs associated with the use of this equipment are, in general, overly traditional. It will be shown in this paper that for little extra, cost, current technology can be applied in the form of programmable controllers (PC´s) and electronic drive regulators in such a way as to improve the reliability and operating efficiency of the range drives.
