Description

【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、半製品を含む製品の製造過程に於いて、前記製品毎の製造指示データと製造環境の環境変化データとに応じたミキサー装置側への制御指示データにより、前記ミキサー装置を使用する製造に関して自動制御を行うシステムに関するものである。
【０００２】
【従来の技術】
小麦粉を主原材料としたパン等を製造するミキシングの製造過程に於いて、室温、主原材料の温度、水温、湿度等の製造環境の変化や主原材料の仕込み量に対応して、生地の仕上がり温度を常に一定に保つことは容易ではなく、これらの環境下でも、ミキサー装置の回転速度、回転時間、吸水量等を調整して、生地の仕上がり温度を一定にする為のミキシングの自動制御が求められている。
【０００３】
又、ミキサー装置の自動制御システムの事例としては、例えば、特開２００１−２７５５５０号公報に開示されている「パン生地ミキシング管理法及び装置」が示すように、パン生地の仕込み量に応じたミキサーの回転速度と回転時間の制御は行われていない。又、製造環境の変化に対しては、ミキシング中のパン生地の平均温度だけをとらえており、その他の仕込み水温や湿度等の変化に対する対策はとられていない為、パン生地の仕上がりの温度は、ばらつきが発生する問題を含んでいる。
