Automatic Control System for the Declivity Angle of the Finishing Beam

Mircea V. Nemescu, Mitica Temneanu
Abstract:

The paper presents a new system for automatic control of the position of finishing beam of a machine for the deposition of asphaltic mixtures. The system uses an inertial transducer for measuring the inclination angle of the beam. The transducer’s functioning is without mechanical contact, the variations of the inclination angle being directly transformed into phase variations. A good agreement has been observed between experimental results and theoretical considerations.
