WASABI

"Tools-integrated assistance system for production control in injection moulding of highly complex and demanding component specifications

Problem Statement

  • Permanent operating point monitoring
  • In situ quality control
  • Efficient process adaptations
  • Loss of knowledge on start-stop production processes due to the elimination of co-workers
  • Avoidance of rejects and downtimes

Approach to Solution

  • Implementation of sensors in injection moulds
  • Combination of OptiCheck and EDS sensor signals
  • Hardware and software development for the application of machine learning methods
  • Integration and improvement of classification algorithms

Target

Realization of a digital assistance system for production optimization in plastic injection moulding.
