초록

Wire breakage in drawing, which is the most critical process in glass fiber manufacturing, is caused by numerous factors such as height, drawing speed, and air flow. The vibrations of the draw tower, however, is the most dominant factor to create the wire breakage. In this study, the structure of a draw tower has been analyzed through experiments and computer simulations to figure out the main reasons of the vibrations. And the design alterations were applied to the machine to identify the effects of those alterations. The result shows that design alterations of the draw tower structure can suppress the 87% of the vibrations, and further can prevent the wire breakage.
