CONTROL OF A CONVEYANCE FOR BULK MATERIALS THAT IS DRIVEN BY ELECTRIC LINEAR MOTORS

STEUERUNG EINES MASSENGUT-TRANSPORTMITTELS MIT LINEARMOTOR-ANTRIEB

Concept of a transportation system for bulk materials, whose economics would lay between those of railroad and band conveyor, is discussed. It consists of two, suspended monorail tracks, one for the load and another empty return, which are arranged one over the other in a vertical plane. The problem of control analyses: number of trains in simultaneous operation as well as the arrangement of cams (stators) for the linear motors. In case of multiple trains operation the positioning of the cams (stators) on the track structure provides for optimum control conditions.
