Abstract

Purpose: development of a methodology for operational assessment of the influence of innovative solutions to the technical and operational characteristics of individual mechanisms and systems on the reliability of the sock automatic machine on a posteriori information about failures in production.Methodology: the method of search, description, analogies and analysis of information is used to audit the set of possible solutions to the subject of research, the basics of reliability theory, methods for assessing reliability indicators based on experimental data, matrix theory, elements of numerical methods and methodology of a posteriori reliability analysis of structurally complex technical systems. Findings: the calculation algorithm and mathematical support for operational assessment of influence of technical and operational changes of one of mechanisms on reliability of the sock automatic machine as a whole in the conditions of uncertainty of the information about failures and sources of its receipt are presented. The advantages of the proposed approach in comparison with the traditional one are shown, which allows to reduce the design duration while ensuring the required quality and minimizing costs by limiting tests and calculations. A numerical estimate of the degree of influence on the reliability of the sock automatic machine of changes in the design of the knitting mechanism is obtained. It is shown that the increase in the average failure time to 24.82 hours, when changing the technical characteristics of the knitting mechanism leads to an increase in this indicator for the machine as a whole to 1.24 hours. Originality: it is the further development of the theory and methodology of reliability analysis of sock automatic machines at the stages of design or modernization in cases of controlled variety of options for innovative mechanisms with limited information about failures and while maintaining functional and structural relationships. Practical value: the method of modeling the reliability of the sock automatic machine according to the innovative solutions of its mechanisms is proposed, which minimizes the costs of additional tests and calculations. The results of the above concept of the analysis of the reliability of the machine confirmed the sufficient accuracy of the calculations at the stage before the design preparation, which allows it to be used for other knitting machines.
