Design of a embedded embroidery machine controller based on dual processors

The sophisticated computerized embroidery machine controller is urgently needed in embroidery industry. In this paper, we designed a kind of scheme with dual-core processor to implement its function. The controller can be divided into two parts, the host computer part takes S3C2410X as its core controller, it fulfills function of network, graphic user interface and etc through transplanting embedded Linux and GUI software; and the lower computer takes TMS320LF2407A as its core controller, all electrical motors are under its control. Results obtained in this work, demonstrate both the theoretical and practical possibility of designing this controller and provide a feasible method.
