Background:
Injection molding is a method of producing industrial goods materials. Products usually use rubber injection molding or plastic injection molding. Injection molding can also be divided into injection molding and die casting. Injection molding machine (also called as injection machine) is the main molding equipment that uses plastic molding molds to make plastic products of various shapes from thermoplastics or thermosetting materials. Injection molding is achieved through injection molding machines and molds.
Injection molding machines are key equipment for plastic processing and are widely used in many industries such as automobiles, electronics, packaging, construction, medical care, and industry. With the development of digital technology, the market has increasingly higher requirements on quality control, on-site management capability, and budget control. The introduction of MES systems has become an important movement for injection molding companies to achieve digital transformation and sustainable development.
Industry Requirements:
The introduction of the MES system can effectively improve production efficiency, optimize resource management, improve product quality, achieve refined management, and adapt to changes in market demand on the injection molding industry. Applied to injection molding machines, the MES system can monitor equipment status in real time, extend service life, record maintenance data, and guide preventive maintenance. At the same time, the MES system tracks material usage and inventory, reduces inventory costs, and automatically calculates material requirements. In terms of quality monitoring, the whole system monitors production status in real time to ensure product quality and records data to trace quality issues.
The MES system starts from the bottom-level data collection, to process monitoring and online management, and all the way to cost-related data management, forming a complete production information system. So, the MES system not only completes the traditional production monitoring, data statistics, and report output functions, but also becomes an activity platform for production management. Various production management activities can be realized through this platform, including online office, online scheduling, online coordination, and online management, which greatly improves the efficiency of production management.
As a key industrial system in the manufacturing industry, the MES system is used to monitor, manage and optimize the production process. The TAICENN industrial Panel PC is designed for industrial environments, delivers with long durability, high performance, rich I/O interfaces and strict environmental requirements. It can operate stably under harsh industrial conditions, features with rugged structure, IP65 dust-proof and water-proof capacities.
