Injection molds have their own memory. High shot volumes, long operating periods, operating errors, downtimes and repairs – they all leave traces behind. The process data and events actually generated in the mold provide information about what has happened.

This relevant process data is captured by moldMind II in real time and a tamper-proof record of the data kept throughout the lifecycle of the injection mold.

The intelligent monitoring system detects problems quickly and thus minimizes downtimes. moldMIND II provides a basis for planning maintenance work and supplies data for optimized production processes.

› Monitoring and analysis of key process parameters during production

› Real-time process data generated within the injection mold

› Tamper-proof

› Throughout the lifecycle of the mold

› Central storage of comprehensive tool data and important documents and reports

› Easy handling

› Numerous interface and storage options

› Cloud storage allows data to be accessed from anywhere in the world

MONITORING WARNING PROTECTING MAINTENANCE

MES

› moldMIND II logs data such as temperature deviations, sensor breakage, downtimes and pin movement when the operating temperature is not reached

› In the event of critical deviations from the specified setpoint parameter, an alarm signal is generated

› For rapid reaction, the alarm signal can be sent to a mobile device or to additional systems via OPC/UA

› Signals from other machines can be received from or sent to other machines via digital I/Os

Warns in order to avoid damage.Rapid reaction times minimize downtimes.

WARNING

› Cycle count

› Minimum and maximum cycle time

› Temperature profiles

› Operating times

› Downtimes

› Internal mold pressure

› Pin movement when operating temperature is not reached

› Acoustic emissions (in development)

Monitors and records.Uninterruptedly, securely, in real time – throughout the lifecycle of an injection mold. Easily accessible.

› The possibility of specifying maintenance intervals (for example based on the number of cycles), makes planning of maintenance and servicing, spare parts management or overhauling of molds easy

› Maintenance work is simplified by the central storage of important machine data, maintenance instructions and other documents such as maintenance logs

› Completed maintenance can be seamlessly documented

› moldMIND II is continuously developed so that data is available for proactive predictive maintenance concepts in the future. This approach will allow early prediction of malfunctions and avoidance of breakdowns

Sample display

› The analysis of historical data allows comparison of mold production efficiency and provides information about potential improvements

› moldMIND II is equipped with a GPS module. Owners and operators of several molds can thus maintain an overview of the exact locations of their molds

› Using the OPC/UA standard, data can be made available to external systems (such as an MES) for further processing via an Ethernet connection

› In addition to seamless documentation of relevant process data throughout the lifecycle of the mold, moldMIND II offers a central location for storing all important mold and hot runner data, mold master data and technical documents such as user manuals and maintenance logs

Protects your property.Locates your molds, analyzes process data for optimization and is the central storage location for all relevant data.

PROTECTING

Supports maintenance.Supports planning and makes it possible to log maintenance that has been carried out.
