Abstract
Reliability of braking systems is a key requirement to ensure the safety of in using downward belt conveyor brakes. By analyzing and comparing three commonly used braking velocity curves, we conclude that the Harrison curve is the best. Given the characteristics of a downward belt conveyor, we studied the control in a closed-loop velocity, a conventional PID method and an optimal PID control method. We used MATLAB/Simulink to simulate the three control methods. Our simulation results show that optimal PID control is especially suitable for disc braking systems. To verify the results from theoretical analysis and simulation, a multifunctional test-bed was developed to simulate the braking process of a disc brake system. Our experimental results demonstrate that the optimal PID control can make the output velocity to follow a preset velocity correctly with only small fluctuations, meeting the requirements of a flexible brake for a belt conveyor.
