Abstract
The invention relates to the field of control of textile machinery which enables optimal control of fiber processing machinery to achieve a target operating point. The method optimizes the processing of fibers by determining a machinery model which simulates a fiber processing machine and introduces to the model different parameters related to the machinery and the input fibers to create optimized settings for the parameters of the machinery and the input fibers for the desired output. These optimal settings are introduced to the machinery and the inputted fibers to process the fibers to achieve the desired output.
