A method includes recording: a setting value of a setting quantity, a value of a process quantity, and/or a value of an indirect process quantity of the production process obtained from a value of a process quantity by a data recording unit. The method also includes establishing a calculated setting value and/or an electronic message by a computing unit by a set of rules. The input data of the set of rules includes the values recorded and/or a system configuration value of a system configuration quantity and/or classified values from the values. The method also includes deciding whether the calculated setting value should be adopted and/or the recommended action should be followed by a decision-making unit and/or the operator via the operator interface. The set of rules is created by a learning unit by a machine learning process employing training data from production plants and/or production machines.
摘要:
In a method for determining at least one parameter for the description of the compression behavior of a material processed in a molding machine, at least a part of the processed material is introduced into a mold cavity via a distribution system and a gate, and the processed material solidifies in the mold cavity. A compression test is performed in which a volume storing the material is modified and a measurement of the resulting pressure modification is conducted or a pressure applied onto the material is modified and a measurement of the resulting modification of the volume is conducted. A parameter for the description of the compression behavior is calculated based on the result of the compression test by using a mathematical model. The compression test is conducted when the gate is at least substantially solidified or when the hot runner is closed.

A target value progression for a process parameter functioning as a setting variable is established so that an actual value progression for a selected variable has a desired property, or the desired actual value progression itself ensues. The actual value progression occurring in relation to the first configuration is predetermined as a reference value progression for the selected variable, and a target value progression for the process parameter functioning as the setting variable is established by a computer so that the reference value progression as the actual value progression with the desired property or the desired actual value progression itself ensues when the shaping machine in the second configuration operates in a production cycle in accordance with the selected target value progression for the at least one process parameter functioning as the setting variable.

摘要:
A method of simulating a shaping process involves calculating states of objects involved in the shaping process in discrete and successive time steps with presetting of conditions, and the conditions represent input parameters of the shaping process. After a time step which is before the end of the simulated shaping process, (a) a check on the calculated states of the objects involved in the shaping process is carried out based on a quality criterion. If the check in step (a) shows that the quality criterion is not met, then (b) at least one of the following is carried out: resumption of the simulation with repeated calculation of the time step and/or a preceding time step, and continuation of the simulation with calculation of a time step following the time step. When method step (b) is carried out, the conditions are at least partially altered.

摘要:
A method of optimizing a process optimization system for a moulding machine includes setting a setting data by a user on the actual moulding machine, obtaining first values for at least one descriptive variable of the moulding process based on the setting data set and/or on the basis of the cyclically carried out moulding process, and obtaining second values for the at least one descriptive variable based on data from the process optimization system. According to a predetermined differentiating criterion, it is checked whether the first values and the second values differ from each other. If the checking shows that the first values and the second values differ from each other, the process optimization system is modified such that, when applied to the moulding machine and/or the moulding process, the first values for the descriptive variable substantially result instead of the second values for the descriptive variable.
