Abstract: In view of the artificial hanging shear yarn phenomenon in the current filament winding process, an automatic yarn hanging mechanism applied to the filament winding machine is designed, and the key parts of the automatic clamping mechanism are tested. Glass fiber and carbon fiber prepreg belt used in industrial production were used as experimental materials. The effect of mechanism on yarn clamping was tested under dry yarn and soaking state respectively. The relationship between yarn sliding tensile force under different clamping forces was analyzed, and the clamping effect of the mechanism under dry yarn and soaking condition was compared. The experimental test results basically meet the demand of the fiber clamping force in the mechanism, which proves the feasibility of the mechanism scheme, and provides a reference for the improvement of the yarn hanging mechanism.
