25 is a view for explaining a liquid product manufacturing method according to the present invention. Hereinafter, descriptions of the parts described in detail above may be omitted. The following manufacturing method may be performed under the control of the controller 600.

Referring to FIG. 25, first, when the power of the liquid product manufacturing apparatus 100A is turned on (S100), the tray unit 20A may be rotated under the control of the controller 600 (S101). .

While rotating the tray part 20A, the identification mark 212 of the sub-tray 21 is sensed using the tray sensor part SR2, and the sub-tray 21 and related information can be checked using this. (S102).

For example, information on the number and type of the sub trays 21 arranged on the base tray 20 can be checked. In addition, container information such as the type and capacity of the raw material container IC mounted on the sub tray 23 and raw material information such as the end of the raw material contained in the raw material container IC can be checked.

Thereafter, it may be determined whether or not a product selection command is input (S103).

As a result of the determination, when the product selection command is not input, another preset function (Default 1) may be performed (S104). For example, you can wait for a product selection command to be entered.

On the other hand, when a product selection command is input, information on a corresponding product can be checked (S105). For example, when cosmetic A is selected as a product, information on the types of raw materials required for the manufacture of cosmetic A and the capacity of each raw material can be checked. Here, the capacity of the raw material may correspond to the number of pumping times of the pump PP.

Thereafter, the route can be checked for the selected product (S106). For example, it is possible to check paths such as the rotation direction and rotation angle of the tray part 20A for the cosmetic A.

Thereafter, it may be determined whether or not the raw material container IC containing the target raw material is located in the pump location (S107). Here, a determination process may be performed based on information on the sub-tray 21 determined based on data sensed through the tray sensor unit SR2.

Here, the pumping position may mean a position at which the head part 400 of the injection part 40A can pump the pump PP of the raw material container IC through a reciprocating motion.

In addition, the target raw material may mean a raw material required for manufacturing the selected product.

As a result of the determination, when the target raw material does not correspond to the pumping position, the tray part 20A may be rotated to move the target raw material to the pumping position (S111).

On the other hand, when the target raw material corresponds to the pumping position, it may be determined whether the cartridge unit 10A is located at the pumping position (S108).

As a result of the determination, if the cartridge unit 10A is not located in the pumping position, information (alarm) notifying the absence of the cartridge unit 10A may be output and the operation of the liquid product manufacturing apparatus 100A may be stopped (S109). ).

On the other hand, when the cartridge unit 10A is positioned at the pumping position, a pumping operation is performed to inject the raw material into the product container PC (S110).

Thereafter, it may be determined whether there is another target raw material for the selected product (S112).

As a result of the determination, if there is another target raw material, the tray 20A may be rotated to move the other target raw material to the pumping position (S111).

On the other hand, when no other target raw material exists, the raw material injection process may be terminated (S113).

Through this process, a liquid product may be manufactured by injecting at least one raw material into the product container PC.

As described above, it will be appreciated that the above-described technical configuration of the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms without changing the technical spirit or essential features of the present invention by those skilled in the art.

Therefore, the above-described embodiments are to be understood as illustrative and not limiting in all respects, and the scope of the present invention is indicated by the claims to be described later rather than the detailed description described above, and the meaning and scope of the claims And all changes or modified forms derived from the equivalent concept should be interpreted as being included in the scope of the present invention.
