Stable, reliable and high-speed weft insertion is an urgent challenge for high-speed industrial textile weaving devices. More stable and large electromagnetic forces can be provided by the segmented combined electromagnetic launch weft insertion, compared to the conventional electromagnetic launch weft insertion, which facilitates the realization of high-speed weft insertion. For digital electromagnetic launch weft insertion textile devices, it is necessary to respond quickly to the signals fed back by the sensors. Therefore, a fast and high-precision dynamical model capable of characterizing the kinematic properties of the weft inserter is extremely essential for control, which is conducive to the stable and reliable operation of the device. In this paper, we consider the electromagnetic force, weft yarn tension, air resistance, pipe wall friction, and gravity during the movement of the weft inserter, and establish a dynamic prediction model of segmented combined electromagnetic launch weft insertion (DPMSCEI) for control. Combining simulations and experiments to evaluate the performance of DPMSCEI validates the effectiveness and professionalism of DPMSCEI in solving electromagnetic weft insertion dynamics.
