As per my memory goes, the only machine which I recalled from my first school trip to a textile mill as a kid was a Barber Coleman winder, with an overhead cleaner.
More then then the winder, the overhead cleaner was very amusing for me, because it moved on a track and had two arms and looked more like an octopus with two arms sucking fibers out of the machine.
As luck would have had it, I did my specialization in Polymer based Textiles, yet worked most of my life with machines and polymers. And the Octopus on the Coleman winder was always flashed into my mind, whenever I saw the overhead cleaner on the machines.
Well, the lazy thinking Textile Industry , it would take time to understand that a Robot, which can clean the floor can do the same job for the machine. It can also vacuum the fibres out of the machine , including floor cleaning . Job, which is currently being done by the OHTC.
At Mantex Technologies , now I am working out with a Robot Vacuum Cleaner to make a Vacuum cleaner, which vacuums in X axis and also in Y axis. Which means, the neck of cleaner will extend right till the area of operation, where the vacuum needs to be done.
The best thing about the Robot Cleaner is that it simply does not keep running till it has already " All Cleared" the dust and fibre from the area of operation. So, it is miles ahead of the old system of travelling OHTC.
The Robot is intelligent, so it also keeps taking pictures in real time and if you do wish to monitor, it can flash the pictures to a receiver.
The Second generation of robot will also calculate, the fly generation of the machine per day or per hour by using a small pizo sensor and alarm the winder or spinner on the short fibres or dust in the system. It will then report this via wireless to your hand phone.
The line of operation of the robot is very easy to make. A simple color sensor will follow the color line drawn besides the machine. The robot will not leave this line and at the end of the machine, will turn back with the inbuilt systems of sensing obstacles etc. Robot will also stop on its own, when it senses that the line of operation is blocked by the operator.
No more Over Head Cleaners. It will now be Robot Cleaners . I only hope my design is not quickly copied away by some jerk.
Wait for the New Robot Cleaner against the Over Head Cleaner.
Low power, no messy wires, no overhead railings etc etc. Nice and clean machines. And interestingly lower priced then the OHTC.
