Robust Winder Control System Using Adaptive Model Output Following Control Method

Abstract In the conventional mine winder control systems, S-curve control and PI control are mainly utilized. Since the control parameters of these control methods are constant, they can not adapt sufficiently to the large change of the wire rope length. In this work, we propose a new robust winder control system using the adaptive model output following control based on Backstepping strategy. It is shown that the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed control method are confirmed through experiments using an experimental winder model with a maximum length of 15 meters of wire rope.
