Figure 2. Overview of the braiding machine.

Figure 2.

A) Rendered engineered drawing of the braiding machine. B) Image of the fabricated braiding machine. The braiding height (double arrow) is defined as the distance from the head of the bobbin carrier to the braiding point (BP, magnified image). The mandrel (above braiding point) is controlled by a digital DC drive, that is connected to an incremental encoder feedback system to control the digital input and mandrel speed.
