Abstract:

In order to realize the monitoring and control knitting equipment, the knitting enterprise mainly adopts the respective network and separate R & D management system with the problems of difficult networking, incapability of interconnecting and intercommunicating, and high cost. The wireless local area network with convenient layout and low cost was proposed and accessed into the Internet, a unified platform was built, unified interconnection and intercommunication of agreement of knitting equipment was designed, covering three main types of knitting equipment of the circular knitting machine, the knitting machine and the warp knitting machine, and directly data exchange between the knitting equipment of all enterprises with the cloud platform was realized. The cloud platform real-time processed the production data, stored them in the cloud database system, and provided a unified MES service function for knitting enterprises. The experiment results prove that knitting equipment realizes interconnection and intercommunication by cloud platform, meeting the management needs of enterprises based on the cloud platform, and laying the foundation for big data analysis for knitting industry.

Key words: Internet of machine, cloud platform, knitting equipment, interconnection and intercommunication
