Therefore, in the method according to the invention, the operation correlation between cigarette-making machine and buffer unit or cigarette
The quality and degree of operation correlation or the two correlations between packaging machine and buffer unit are during the operation of group
It is changed.It is advantageous in that, although being operated initially at least one parameter for being arranged to starting value to group, institute
Starting value is stated for given cigarette brand or brand and is therefore specially selected for given raw material and production requirement combination
It selects, but same parameters meeting is in view of being related to the efficiency change of the automation cell of production process and being adaptively adjusted.
Preferably, at least one operating parameter is selected from the group of consisting of：Cigarette-making machine starts limit value, perfume (or spice)
Limit that cigarette manufacturing machine deceleration limit value, cigarette-making machine sluggishness width, cigarette pack machine start limit value, cigarette pack machine slows down
Value, cigarette pack machine sluggishness width.The present inventor has been observed that, this is adaptively adjusted according to the logic of the present invention is supported
The clear and definite correlation between the mode of operation of cigarette-making machine or cigarette pack machine and the loading of buffer unit carries out a bit
One or more of parameter of setting is easy to improve group's overall production and efficiency.
Preferably, when the step of being resetted to the value of at least one operating parameter includes determining with the period 1
Between at the end of group's relative efficiency and the corrected value of at least one operating parameter that becomes.
In some embodiments, if the corrected value of at least one parameter is in the following of at least one parameter
In the range of dividing value to the upper boundary values of at least one parameter, then at least one operating parameter is reset to the school
Positive value.Otherwise, if the corrected value of at least one parameter is less than the lower border value of at least one parameter or more than institute
The upper boundary values of at least one parameter are stated, then at least one operating parameter are reset to starting value.
In other embodiments, if the corrected value of at least one parameter is from the following of at least one parameter
At least one operating parameter is then reset to the corrected value by dividing value to the upper boundary values of at least one parameter.Such as
The corrected value of at least one parameter described in fruit is less than the lower border value of at least one parameter, then by least one operation
Parameter reset is into the lower border value of at least one parameter.If the corrected value of at least one parameter be more than it is described at least
At least one operating parameter is then reset to the upper boundary values of at least one parameter by the upper boundary values of one parameter.
Hence it is advantageous to confirm that at least one operating parameter is in tolerance interval it is possible that checking.This is not only
Be related to the relevant inherent constraint condition of the property of group (such as the loading of buffer unit only can be from 0% to 100%), and
Also relate to this truth：Certain relationships between various operating parameters are preferably retained.For example, cigarette-making machine
Deceleration limit value is preferably lower than cigarette-making machine and starts limit value.In addition, be advantageous in that, boundary value can be optimized so that according to
The implementation of the method for the present invention obtains most stable of output increased.
Preferably, the step of determining the corrected value of at least one operating parameter is included at least one operation
The baseline value of parameter be multiplied by essentially equal to time period 1 at the end of group's relative efficiency factor or be multiplied by its inverse.
Cigarette-making machine starts this loading that limit value defines buffer unit：When less than this amount, cigarette-making machine exists
It is restarted after stopping caused by buffer unit fills up.If the full speed of production of cigarette-making machine is more than cigarette-packaging machine
The full speed of production (that is, bottle-neck zone is close to 100% buffer unit loading) of device, and if cigarette manufacture engine efficiency is protected
Hold constant, and cigarette pack efficiency increases, then the incidence that cigarette-making machine caused by buffer unit becomes full stops will drop
It is low.It is contemplated that the full speed of production of cigarette pack machine is more than the full speed of production of cigarette-making machine (that is, wherein bottleneck
Area is close to 0% buffer unit loading) and cigarette manufacture engine efficiency keep constant and cigarette pack efficiency it is increased in the case of
There is similar performance.
However, in the latter case, the incidence that cigarette-making machine stops will reduce in slightly larger degree.
In practice, need the buffer unit inner capacities that cigarette pack machine consumes that can reduce before cigarette-making machine can start again.
Therefore, cigarette-making machine starting limit value can be considered directly proportional to the efficiency of packaging machine.Meanwhile cigarette-making machine starting limit value can
It is considered as and is inversely proportional with the efficiency of cigarette-making machine.Thus, it is believed that：
Manufacturing machine starts limit value ∝ (packaging machine efficiency/manufacture engine efficiency) (3)
Cigarette-making machine deceleration limit value defines this loading of buffer unit：When higher than this amount, cigarette-making machine
Speed of production drops to the speed of production of reduction from full speed of production.If the full speed of production of cigarette-making machine is more than cigarette pack
The full speed of production (that is, bottle-neck zone is close to 100% buffer unit loading) of machine and if cigarette manufacture engine efficiency
It keeps constant and the increase of cigarette pack efficiency, then the incidence that the cigarette-making machine caused by buffer unit becomes full stops will drop
It is low, because packaging machine substantially consumes more.On the other hand, if the full speed of production of cigarette pack machine is more than cigarette system
The full speed of production (that is, bottle-neck zone is close to 0% buffer unit loading) of machine is made, and if cigarette manufacture engine efficiency is protected
Hold it is constant, and cigarette pack efficiency increase, then the frequency that buffer unit becomes full will be reduced largely.Therefore, wherein
Cigarette-making machine can be reduced with the loading range that the speed reduced is run.This can generate wherein cigarette-making machine can be to give birth to entirely
Produce the extra padding amount range of speed operation, it is contemplated that yield increase can be obtained in this way.
Therefore, cigarette-making machine deceleration limit value can be considered directly proportional to the efficiency of packaging machine.Meanwhile cigarette-making machine subtracts
Speed limit value can be considered that the efficiency with cigarette-making machine is inversely proportional.Thus, it is believed that：
Manufacturing machine deceleration limit value ∝ (packaging machine efficiency/manufacture engine efficiency) (4)
Cigarette-making machine sluggishness width defines the difference between following two buffer unit loadings：Cigarette when higher than this amount
The speed of production of manufacturing machine drops to the buffer unit loading of the speed of production of reduction from full speed of production (that is, cigarette-making machine
Deceleration limit value) and the speed of production of cigarette-making machine increases back up to full production speed from the speed of production of reduction when less than this amount
The buffer unit loading of degree.If the full speed of production of cigarette-making machine be more than cigarette pack machine full speed of production (
That is bottle-neck zone is close to 100% buffer unit loading) and if cigarette manufacture engine efficiency is kept constant and cigarette-packaging machine
Device efficiency increases, then needs the possibility for stopping cigarette-making machine that will slightly increase due to buffer unit becomes full.However, such as fruity
The full speed of production of cigarette packaging machine is more than the full speed of production of cigarette-making machine (that is, wherein bottle-neck zone is slow close to 0%
Flushing device loading), and if cigarette manufacture engine efficiency keeps identical, and cigarette pack efficiency increases, then because of buffer unit
The possibility that cigarette pack machine caused by emptying stops will increase.Therefore, in such situations, cigarette capable of reducing manufacturing machine is slow
Stagnant width is to limit the influence caused by the formation of bottleneck.
Therefore, cigarette-making machine sluggishness width can be considered that the efficiency with cigarette pack machine is inversely proportional.Meanwhile cigarette manufacture
Machine sluggishness width can be considered directly proportional to the efficiency of cigarette-making machine.Thus, it is believed that：
Manufacturing machine sluggishness width ∝ (manufacture engine efficiency/packaging machine efficiency) (5)
Cigarette pack machine starts this loading that limit value defines buffer unit：When higher than this amount, cigarette-packaging machine
Device is restarted after the stopping caused by buffer unit is emptying.If the full speed of production of cigarette-making machine is more than cigarette packets
The full speed of production (that is, bottle-neck zone is close to 100% buffer unit loading) of machine, and if cigarette pack machine
Efficiency is kept constant, and cigarette manufacture engine efficiency increases, then what the cigarette pack machine caused by buffer unit is emptying stopped
Incidence will reduce.Therefore, in order to improve yield, cigarette capable of reducing packaging machine starts limit value, so as to wider range
Buffer unit fills magnitude, and cigarette pack machine is usefully in generation state in the case where the buffer unit fills magnitude.However,
If the full speed of production of cigarette pack machine is more than the full speed of production of cigarette-making machine, and if cigarette pack machine efficiency
Keep identical and the increase of cigarette manufacture engine efficiency, then the cigarette pack machine stopping caused by buffer unit is emptying incidence general
Reduce.Therefore, cigarette pack machine, which starts limit value, should reduce small amount.Therefore, cigarette pack machine start limit value can be considered with
The efficiency of cigarette-making machine is inversely proportional.
If the full speed of production of cigarette-making machine is more than the full speed of production of cigarette pack machine, if packaging machine
Efficiency increases and the efficiency of cigarette-making machine is kept constant, then the emptying possibility of buffer unit also will increase.Therefore, cigarette packets
Machine, which starts limit value, should increase to improve productivity.On the other hand, if the full speed of production of cigarette pack machine is more than perfume
The full speed of production of cigarette manufacturing machine, and cigarette manufacture engine efficiency keeps identical if packaging machine efficiency increases, compared with full
Buffer unit situation, empty buffer unit situation will more frequently occur.Therefore, in such cases, cigarette pack machine
Starting limit value should increase largely.Therefore, cigarette pack machine start limit value can be considered with the efficiency of cigarette pack machine into
Direct ratio.Thus, it is believed that：
Packaging machine starts limit value ∝ (packaging machine efficiency/manufacture engine efficiency) (6)
Cigarette pack machine deceleration limit value defines this loading of buffer unit：When less than this amount, cigarette-packaging machine
The speed of production of device drops to the speed of production of reduction from full speed of production.If the full speed of production of cigarette-making machine is more than cigarette
The full speed of production of packaging machine, and cigarette manufacture engine efficiency keeps identical, cigarette packets if packaging machine efficiency increases
The incidence that machine stops will increase, because cigarette pack machine can produce more.In such situations, it may be advantageous to increase
Cigarette pack machine deceleration limit value.On the other hand, if the full speed of production of cigarette pack machine is more than the complete of cigarette-making machine
Speed of production, and cigarette manufacture engine efficiency keeps identical if packaging machine efficiency increases, cigarette pack machine, which slows down, to be limited
Value should be high because buffer unit will be more likely to it is emptying.Therefore, cigarette pack machine deceleration limit value can be considered and cigarette
The efficiency of packaging machine is directly proportional.
If the full speed of production of cigarette-making machine is more than the full speed of production of cigarette pack machine, if cigarette-making machine
Efficiency increase and the efficiency of cigarette pack machine is kept constant, then buffer unit will be less likely to emptying.Therefore, in such feelings
Under shape, cigarette capable of reducing packaging machine deceleration limit value.On the other hand, if the full speed of production of cigarette pack machine is more than cigarette
The full speed of production of manufacturing machine, then the reduction of cigarette pack machine deceleration limit value should slightly less significantly, because bottle-neck zone leans on
Nearly 0% buffer unit loading.Thus, it is believed that：
Packaging machine deceleration limit value ∝ (packaging machine efficiency/manufacture engine efficiency) (7)
Cigarette pack machine sluggishness width defines the difference between following two buffer unit loadings：It is fragrant when less than this amount
The speed of production of cigarette packaging machine drops to the buffer unit loading of the speed of production of reduction from full speed of production (that is, cigarette packets
Machine deceleration limit value) and the speed of production of cigarette pack machine is increased back up to from the speed of production of reduction when higher than this amount
The buffer unit loading of full speed of production.If the full speed of production of cigarette-making machine is more than the full production of cigarette pack machine
Speed, then buffer unit loading will be closer to 100 in most of production time.If cigarette-making machine efficiency increase and
The efficiency of cigarette pack machine is kept constant, then the number that cigarette pack machine stops will increase.On the other hand, if cigarette packets
The full speed of production of machine is more than the full speed of production of cigarette-making machine, and increased packaging machine efficiency will lead to packaging machine
The stopping of more high reps.In order to resist this effect, cigarette pack machine sluggishness width can increase so that cigarette pack machine
Influence caused by stopping reduces.Therefore, cigarette pack machine sluggishness width can be considered directly proportional to the efficiency of cigarette pack machine.
If the full speed of production of cigarette-making machine is more than the full speed of production of cigarette pack machine, if cigarette-packaging machine
Device efficiency keeps identical and cigarette manufacture engine efficiency to increase, then the possibility that buffer unit becomes full will increase and therefore cigarette manufacture
Machine will more frequently stop.In such cases, cigarette pack machine sluggishness width can reduce so that packaging machine can to the greatest extent may be used
It is run in time more than energy with full speed of production.It is more than the full production of cigarette-making machine in the full speed of production of cigarette pack machine
It can observe similar performance in the case of speed.Therefore, cigarette pack machine sluggishness width can be considered the effect with cigarette-making machine
Rate is inversely proportional.Thus, it is believed that：
Packaging machine sluggishness ∝ (packaging machine efficiency/manufacture engine efficiency) (8)
