Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a control method for controlling at least a part of a production process of a film extrusion plant and a corresponding computer program product.
  • film extrusion systems can be evaluated on the basis of input parameters and output parameters with regard to a production situation and / or with regard to a film product situation. This applies in particular to the setting, that is to say the control and / or regulation of the film extrusion system. For example, a large number of input parameters are necessary in order to set the film extrusion system in such a way that it generates a defined film product situation.
  • Such input parameters can, for example, parameters of the raw materials, parameters
  • the recipe but also parameters of the film extrusion line itself.
  • the evaluation of the quality of the film product also depends on a large number of parameters.
  • the usage parameter i.e. the actual fulfillment of a function of the film, but also measurable film parameters such as tear resistance or stretchability can be used here as output parameters.
  • a control method according to the invention is used to control at least part of a production process of a film extrusion plant by means of a production model.
  • Such a control procedure has the following steps:
  • a control method thus serves to influence a film extrusion installation and the production process taking place thereon, in particular in a controlling or regulating manner.
  • the control is based on a generally known logic of a target / actual comparison.
  • a model parameter is recorded in the form of an output parameter of the production model.
  • the film product situation can thus be recorded.
  • This can be, for example, film parameters, but also stability parameters of the film web that is produced by the film extrusion system.
  • the acquisition can take place directly or indirectly as well as inline but also offline. In particular, the acquisition step is integrated into a control process so that a closed control loop can be formed.
  • a difference value is determined, that is to say a deviation, between the recorded output parameter and a setpoint value correlating with this output parameter.
  • This setpoint can be a static setpoint, but also a regularly varying setpoint.
  • the setpoint can also be additional Have dependencies, for example on the recipe currently being produced on the film extrusion line.
  • a parameter relationship is established, namely between the determined difference value and at least one model parameter in the form of an input parameter of the production model.
  • a production model can be, for example, an algorithmic model, an empirical model and / or a model based on what is known as artificial intelligence.
  • so-called neural networks can be used here, which, with corresponding training data, depicts the individual model parameters that are actually present on the film extrusion system and relate them to one another.
  • a parameter relationship is now created by the production model between the difference value and at least one input parameter. It is thus determined in what way and with what parameter relationship the identified and determined difference interacts with one or more input parameters of the production model.
  • At least one control value is now generated as a specification for the at least one input parameter of the parameter relationship that has been established.
  • This control value is based on the parameter relationship and now allows the difference to be compensated.
  • the aim of a control method according to the invention is therefore to compensate for and reduce undesired deviations from setpoint values by means of control intervention or control intervention.
  • the core idea according to the invention is based on the fact that such a control must take place not only on the basis of the experience of the operating personnel or the actual knowledge of the special film extrusion plant.
  • a production model now provides the parameter relationship between the difference value and at least one input parameter.
  • the film extrusion system can be any form of film extrusion system. In particular, this is to be understood as meaning blown film machines as well as flat film machines.
  • combinations between classic algorithmic models, empirical models and neural networks in the form of artificial intelligence are also conceivable within the scope of the present invention.
  • control value can be saved in the simplest possible way so that, so to speak, sustainable monitoring of the production process, i.e. so-called monitoring, can take place.
  • an output of the generated control value is also conceivable, in principle as an indication for the operating personnel with which parameter relationship a control value would be useful for regulating a machine or for manual intervention on the machine.
  • an active control intervention in the form of an automated regulation with the generated at least one control value is also conceivable within the meaning of the present invention.
  • model parameter is to be understood as any parameter that can be used in the production model.
  • model parameters can be divided into input parameters and output parameters of the film extrusion system.
  • the generated control value is output as an indication to the operating personnel.
  • the generated manipulated variable in the form of a note can, for example, take the form of a visual display. Also is the output both as an individually generated control value, but also as a control value corridor is conceivable.
  • the basic output of the direction in which and for which input parameters an adjustment or manual intervention would be useful can also be made available as an output of the manipulated variable. For example, the output of incorrect positioning of the frost line in a flat film production would be.
  • the generated control value would indicate to the operating personnel that a greater cooling capacity is to be generated.
  • the production process can be improved by simply generating the manipulated variable and outputting it as a reference to the operating personnel.
  • the generated control value directly or indirectly changes an input parameter, in particular in the form of a machine parameter, of the film extrusion system in a targeted manner.
  • Such an intervention can also be understood as an automatic control or automatic regulation.
  • the targeted intervention or direct adaptation of the machine parameter can be, for example, intervention in the melt temperature with a direct input parameter.
  • An indirect adjustment is also conceivable here, for example if a cooling capacity is adjusted if the melt temperature is incorrect.
  • a control method according to the invention it can bring further advantages if, in a control method according to the invention, the steps of detecting, determining, forming and generating are carried out at least partially, in particular completely or essentially completely before the start of a production process of the film extrusion system for the creation of a start configuration of the at least one input parameter.
  • a control method according to the invention it is possible to use a control method according to the invention to set a presetting, so to speak, for the film extrusion plant in order to start the production process.

  • a control method according to the invention is used for an improved and stabilized start-up of the film extrusion plant.
  • a control method the steps of detecting, determining, forming and generating are carried out at least partially, in particular completely or essentially completely, after the start of a production process of the film extrusion system.
  • this involves carrying out the control method during the operation of the production process of the film extrusion plant.
  • ongoing regulation and / or control during operation of the film extrusion system can be possible here.
  • such an operational control method can be combined with a start-up control method in accordance with the preceding paragraph.
  • a result of an actuating intervention is recorded and, in particular, stored on the basis of the generated control value in the form of a changed, recorded output parameter.
  • Such a result therefore provides feedback on how successfully the generated control value actually had an effect.
  • Such a feedback and storage of the feedback makes it possible to carry out a correspondingly adapted control in the future.
  • the control value generated based on the control method according to the invention does not lead to the desired qualitative or quantitative control intervention, either the parameter relationship can be changed specifically or even the entire production model can be changed by this feedback. This is of course also possible with two or more model parameters. In other words, this makes it possible to ensure a self-learning production model or a self-learning control method.

  • a control process now makes it possible to automatically and / or support the part of the machine park that best suits the respective production order, i.e. to select an exact, specific, best-fitting film extrusion system.

This selection can either be automated or used as an indication for a manual selection of the corresponding specific film extrusion system.
  • control value ensures a minimum quality, in particular in the form of an upper limit for the determined difference value. This means that a quality promise can be given, so to speak, that the maximum deviation from the required production quality can be specified.
  • This can also be further optimized by monitoring, in particular via the course of the regulation and the setting of the inertia or the permitted rule deflections.
