Abstract: An automatic winding machine (1) employs a hierarchical communication system for real time control and scalability. A central controller (2) communicates over a central bus (7) with a group controller (3), a doffer controller (4a) for doffer modules (4), and an auxiliary device controller (6a) for primary auxiliaries (6). Winding heads (5) are organized into sections (5a), each managed by a section controller (5b) via a winding head bus (8). Each winding head includes a local controller (50), and sections may include secondary auxiliary devices (9). The group controller (3) supervises routing, prioritization, and fault isolation, ensuring deterministic delivery of time critical messages while segregating doffer and auxiliary traffic, optionally via additional buses. The architecture reduces congestion, improves latency, enables hot swap of winding heads (5), and supports predictive diagnostics and secure updates. Applicable to automatic winders and other textile machines, the system enhances throughput, reliability, and maintainability through modular controllers and multi bus segmentation.
