    摘要: A control system for a process machine, preferably an injection molding machine, and having an improved control system architecture. The system includes a machine controller which is coupled to and drives the machine and a separate display/operator interface. Both of the units are independently processor driven and function in a decoupled fashion. A communication bus links the display/operator interface and the machine controller, and standardized messages are communicated bidirectionally on the bus. By means of that sole linkage, the machine controller is utilized to drive the machine while the display/operator interface emulates a tightly coupled control panel, but operates independently, except for the communication of messages on the data bus. Preferably, a power supply for the display/operator interface is mounted in the machine controller enclosure and coupled to the interface by a power supply cable. The interface can thus be reduced in size, sealed and non-ventilated to allow for mounting the relatively hostile environment expected around an injection molding machine.

    摘要: An adaptive controller is provided for controlling the velocity of a ram in an injection molding apparatus during the injection stage of the molding cycle. The controller includes two sets of parameters. The first set define an open-loop control equation for controlling the ram velocity. The second set of parameters define a closed-loop control equation for controlling the ram velocity. Control of the ram, during the injection stage, is partitioned into discrete segments, wherein the open-loop control equation governs during the first portion of each segment, and the closed-loop equation governs during the latter portion of each segment. Both control equations are designed to drive the ram at a set, target velocity. At the end of each segment, a processor evaluates the actual ram velocity with the set, target velocity. Based upon this evaluation, the first and second set of parameters are modified to improve the ram performance and efficiency on the subsequent injection cycle.
