Abstract :
Recently, the need to accelerate the operating cycle of bottling machines while maintaining low operation cost has arisen. However, conveying bottles at high speed without spilling the liquids inside requires advanced techniques for vibration suppression control. In this paper, we optimize the motion curve for an intermittent conveyance bottling machine by using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation to decrease residual vibration at the surface of the liquid. Additionally, we propose a method for assigning magnitude relations to variables and defining the curve by using variable transformations.
