以下,利用圖式對本發明之實施形態進行說明。再者,於所有圖式中,對相同之構成要素標註相同之符號,並適當省略說明。 (第1實施形態) <鑄造支援系統之構成> 圖1係概念性地表示本發明之實施形態之鑄造支援系統1之系統構成的圖。於以下之各圖中,省略且未圖示與本發明之本質無關之部分之構成。 鑄造支援系統1對各鑄造工廠9(顧客使用者(圖中表示為使用者U1、U2、U3、…))提供各種服務。 鑄造支援系統1包含支援複數個鑄造工廠9之鑄模製造裝置10中之鑄造之鑄造支援裝置100(管理伺服器40及網頁伺服器50)、及於各鑄造工廠9之事務所30由顧客利用之使用者終端32。 鑄造支援裝置100(管理伺服器40及網頁伺服器50)包含於雲端資料中心7(以下,亦稱為雲端7)。雲端資料中心7包含多台電腦。 各鑄造工廠9之鑄模製造裝置10包含複數個控制器20。各控制器20利用有線纜線而相互連接,且經由閘道器(GW:Gate Way)14等通信單元而連接於行動電話通信網3。而且,各控制器20與管理伺服器40經由行動電話通信網3而相互通信。管理伺服器40自控制器20接收與鑄模製造裝置10相關之資訊。所接收到之資訊儲存於資料庫42中。 鑄造支援裝置100使用自各鑄造工廠9收集到之資訊,向顧客使用者(鑄造工廠9)提供與鑄模製造有關之各種資訊及服務。又,鑄造支援裝置100所收集之資訊亦被提供給鑄造支援系統1之各部門(維修部門60、管理部門70、經營銷售部門80)。 各部門向鑄造支援系統1之顧客使用者提供與各部門之專業領域相關之各種服務。例如,維修部門60向顧客提供鑄造工廠9之鑄模製造裝置10之警報及維護管理相關之服務。管理部門70進行各鑄造工廠9之顧客管理,並且進行鑄模製造裝置10之運行資訊之管理。經營銷售部門80向顧客提供鑄模製造裝置10及材料之銷售之相關服務。 各部門分別具有電腦62、72、82。各電腦經由網際網路5等網路而訪問(access)雲端7。 再者,認為各部門之系統構成有各種,不受限定。例如,電腦包含伺服器或個人電腦等。進而,亦可包含員工攜帶並利用之移動終端、例如智慧型手機、行動電話、平板終端、PHS(Personal Handyphone System,個人手持電話系統)、PDA(Personal Digital Assistants,個人數位助理)等。 顧客使用者之事務所30之使用者終端32例如包含智慧型手機、平板終端、個人電腦、伺服器電腦、行動電話、PHS、PDA等,但並不限定於該等。使用者終端32經由網際網路5而連接於網頁伺服器50。 各鑄造工廠9於開始利用鑄造支援系統1之服務時,預先進行使用者註冊。 管理伺服器40進而對每一使用者管理資訊。例如,對每個鑄造工廠9註冊使用者資訊。 網頁伺服器50於網站52構築使用者專用之網頁,各使用者藉由使用使用者終端32進行登錄,可訪問使用者專用頁面而接受各種服務。 如上所述,顧客使用者之鑄模製造裝置10與鑄造支援裝置100之間係利用行動電話通信網3直接連接,而不經由網際網路5等,因此可確保鑄模製造裝置10之運行狀況等資訊之安全性。又,經由網際網路5進行之鑄造支援裝置100與使用者終端32、或各部門之電腦間之通信係在利用使用者ID(identifier,識別符)與密碼登錄後才能進行通信、且於通信時對收發之資訊進行編碼處理,藉由上述等方面,能夠確保安全性。 <鑄模製造裝置之構成> 其次,對鑄造工廠9之鑄模製造裝置10進行說明。 圖2係模式性地表示本實施形態之鑄模製造裝置10之概略圖。 鑄模製造裝置10具有硬化劑A槽110a、硬化劑B槽110b、硬化劑A供給部112a、硬化劑B供給部112b、硬化劑A用流量計116a、硬化劑B用流量計116b、黏結劑槽120、黏結劑供給部122、料斗130、砂溫感測器132、混練機140、及控制盤142。 硬化劑A供給部112a、硬化劑B供給部112b、及黏結劑供給部122分別連接於控制器20,根據控制條件控制硬化劑及黏結劑之供給量。 於本實施形態中,將不同之2種硬化劑A及硬化劑B以特定之調配自硬化劑A槽110a及硬化劑B槽110b通過配管114供給至混練機140。 硬化劑A用流量計116a及硬化劑B用流量計116b係自配管114之外部以非接觸之形式計測自各硬化劑槽(硬化劑A槽110a及硬化劑B槽110b)藉由各硬化劑供給部(硬化劑A供給部112a及硬化劑B供給部112b)供給之各硬化劑之流量的管夾式流量計。硬化劑A用流量計116a及硬化劑B用流量計116b係自配管114之外部分別計測於配管114內流動之硬化劑A及硬化劑B之流量,並將計測值發送至控制器20。 作為各流量計116,可使用電磁式、科氏力式、超音波式、渦流式等使用各種測定原理之流量計,尤佳為超音波式之管夾式流量計。 管夾式流量計與其他流量計、例如電磁式流量計或科氏力式流量計相比,價格較低。 又,作為管夾式流量計之特徵,可列舉以下方面。 (i)由於可自外部安裝,故配管工程不會耗費工夫與成本。 (ii)由於安裝位置可移動,故不用使製造生產線停止便可調整至計測精度較佳之場所。 (iii)由於不存在壓力損失,故不會對生產條件造成影響。 (iv)由於與計測對象之材料不接觸,故即便計測對象之材料為腐蝕性液體(酸性、鹼性、溶劑等),亦不會對計器造成不良影響。由於與計測對象之材料不接觸,故計器不會劣化,而可實現高精度且穩定之計測。又,即便於粉塵等混入至液體之情形時,計器亦不會劣化,而可實現高精度且穩定之計測。 如此,藉由使用管夾式流量計,可準確地計測實際流經配管114之硬化劑之流量,因此,藉由對流量之計測值與硬化劑之供給量之指示值(即,自槽向配管114供給硬化劑之泵之輸出指示值)之差量進行修正,可更準確地供給硬化劑,而可使鑄模之硬化速度或可用時間穩定化。 管夾式流量計由於具有此種特徵,故可從與使用其他流量計之情形不同之觀點來監視供給量。例如,可準確地掌握硬化劑之供給量之經時變化,因此,例如,於在較長之跨度內流量逐漸減少或者增加之情形時,亦可視為異常之預兆而進行偵測。 於自硬化劑A槽110a及硬化劑B槽110b朝向混練機140之配管114之外側分別安裝有硬化劑A用流量計116a及硬化劑B用流量計116b。認為安裝方法有各種,例如,首先,以自配管114之兩側夾持配管114之方式安裝各流量計116之基座。繼而,將流量計116可裝卸地安裝至基座。 亦可於配管114與流量計116之間介置潤滑脂等接觸介質。藉由如此於配管114塗佈潤滑脂,可使感測面與配管114表面良好地密接而使超音波信號之傳輸提昇。又,安裝各流量計116之配管114較佳為大致鉛直地設置。其原因係為了防止因配管114內之氣泡而導致計測精度降低。 又,各流量計116如圖8中所說明般,向控制器20發送計測值。流量計116與控制器20間可進行類比連接,亦可進行數位連接。又,流量計116亦可具備無線通信部。無線通信部例如亦可為無線LAN(Local Area Network,區域網路)、或近距離通信之Bluetooth(註冊商標)等。於具備無線通信部之情形時,流量計116可向控制器20發送計測值,亦可向GW14發送計測值。於不經由控制器20而直接向GW14發送計測值之情形時,GW14預先將流量計116之IP(Internet Protocol,網際網路協定)位址等識別資訊與控制器20之識別資訊建立關聯地進行管理。 計測值係逐次或定期地或隨時根據請求而輸出。又,各流量計116亦可具有於特定時間段保持計測值之記憶體。藉由該構成,於通信環境變差之情形時,可將特定時間段之計測值記憶於記憶體中而於通信環境變得良好時發送。 硬化劑係使黏結劑發生硬化反應之液狀之觸媒。於黏結劑為有機自硬性樹脂之情形時,硬化劑可使用利用包含硫酸、磷酸、有機磺酸之酸性之硬化觸媒調節酸強度與酸濃度而分類為速硬性及遲硬性者的硬化劑、或能夠根據水解度及相容性之大小而調節硬化速度之有機酯。於黏結劑為無機自硬性樹脂之情形時,硬化劑可使用能夠根據水解度及相容性之大小而調劑硬化速度之有機酯。 料斗130係矽砂或人工砂等耐火性粒子之槽,其將耐火性粒子投入至混練機140。砂溫感測器132設置於料斗130之耐火性粒子之投入口附近,檢測耐火性粒子之溫度,並向控制器20發送砂溫。 作為耐火性粒子,可使用例如矽砂、鋯英石、鉻鐵礦、橄欖石、氧化鋁、合成莫來石等之單獨砂或混合砂,亦可為新砂及再生砂之任一者。再者,所謂再生砂係指將過去用作鑄模材料者再生所得之耐火性粒子。 混練機140將耐火性粒子、黏結劑、及硬化劑混練,並使所獲得之混練物流入至框144中。混練機140之控制盤142與控制器20連接,控制混練機140之攪拌動作。 黏結劑供給部122自黏結劑槽120將黏結劑投入至混練機140。自黏結劑槽120供給至混練機140之黏結劑之流量亦可藉由流量計(未圖示)計測,並發送至控制器20。黏結劑之供給量由控制器20控制。控制器20亦可進而使用流量計(未圖示)之流量計測值而調整黏結劑之供給量。 作為黏結劑,可使用例如作為酸硬化性樹脂之呋喃樹脂、酚醛樹脂或作為酯硬化性樹脂之鹼性酚醛樹脂等有機自硬性樹脂,又,可使用水玻璃等無機自硬性樹脂。 <鑄模製造裝置10之製造步驟> 圖3係用於說明本實施形態之鑄造工廠9中之鑄模製造裝置10之鑄模製造步驟的圖。 鑄模製造步驟包含造模步驟S1、脫模步驟S2、及澆注步驟S3。 首先,於造模步驟S1中,將矽砂或人工砂等耐火性粒子自料斗130投入至混練機140。進而將黏結劑與硬化劑投入至混練機140。於混練機140設置有控制盤142,控制混練機140之攪拌。 投入至混練機140之硬化劑之組成及供給量由控制器20進行調整。例如,將不同之2種以上硬化劑根據砂溫調整為特定之調配比之供給量而供給。砂溫感測器132設置於料斗130之出口附近,控制器20自砂溫感測器132接收砂溫,並於硬化劑之調整時用作控制條件或者監視砂溫。進而,控制器20亦接收控制盤142之信號,監視混練機140之動作狀態。

藉此,可基於大量資訊構築適當之FAQ資訊,而可提供可靠性較高之服務。 進而,維護管理部420亦可具有供各顧客使用者輸入與故障或維護檢查相關之提問、進而對策資訊(技術訣竅)等之編輯畫面,將在編輯畫面上受理之內容發送至管理伺服器40。自顧客使用者之使用者終端32接收到之資訊係作為使用者發送之資訊而存儲於FAQ資訊記憶部422中。再者,針對自顧客使用者集中之提問,系統側之各部門之行家製作回答,輸入至編輯畫面而進行受理,並存儲於FAQ資訊記憶部422中。又,對於提問之回答亦可利用郵件直接向指定之顧客使用者之郵件位址回復。又,亦可為,關於自顧客使用者集中之對策資訊,系統側之各部門之行家亦能夠驗證內容並在編輯畫面上修正或添加內容。 再者,設為能夠指定與技術訣竅相關之資訊僅能於顧客使用者(鑄造工廠9)內共享還是可提供給其他使用者(其他鑄造工廠9)。於僅能於顧客使用者內共享之情形時,不向其他鑄造工廠9提供該資訊,而僅能於一鑄造工廠9內於複數個作業人員間共享。藉此,可使熟練之作業人員至今為止個別持有之技術訣竅由同一個鑄造工廠9內之複數個作業人員或管理者共享。 再者,該等資訊之共享設定可為與上述顧客之權限連動之設定,亦可不連動而能夠個別地設定。 維修記錄畫面233例如係能夠輸入需要維修之部位、分部位之症狀或數值、維修內容(例如,零件更換、調整、跟蹤觀察等)等資訊的畫面。顧客使用者可自該畫面進行維修記錄。維護管理部420可經由提供部106自各使用者終端32接收在維修記錄233之畫面上受理之資訊。所接收之維修資訊儲存於維修記錄存儲部423中。又,於其他例中,亦可為不由顧客使用者而由維修部門60之技術人員或員工使用電腦62自維修記錄233之畫面輸入維修記錄。 維修歷程234宜為能夠將自維修記錄233之畫面記錄、存儲之維修記錄以例如指定期間之一覽顯示進行畫面顯示或印字輸出。又,亦可為能夠進行指定項目之縮選、分類處理等。 又,例如,FAQ資訊記憶部422或維修記錄存儲部423之資訊亦可與設備(泵、混練機、電源等)、機器、計器(流量計等)或零件(閥等)之種類或型號、使用之控制器20之型號或編程之版本、材料之種類、鑄造工廠9之處所地區、製造之製品之形狀或尺寸等屬性資訊建立關聯地儲存。維護管理部420亦可具有自FAQ資訊記憶部422或維修記錄存儲部423中擷取與顧客使用者之屬性對應之資訊而提供給該顧客使用者的構成。 進而,維護管理部420亦可設為如下構成,即,將與特定之屬性或複數個屬性之組合相符之顧客使用者分組,對特定組之顧客使用者,自FAQ資訊記憶部422或維修記錄存儲部423中擷取並提供與該屬性對應之資訊。既可對每組設置能夠瀏覽之資訊提供網頁,亦可對同一組內之各顧客使用者分別設置相同網頁。或者,亦可對同一組之各顧客使用者發送資訊提供之郵件。例如,亦可將某個零件之缺陷資訊等統一以郵件發送至利用該零件之所有顧客使用者。 又,亦可具有如下構成,即,顧客使用者指定欲獲得之資訊之屬性,自FAQ資訊記憶部422或維修記錄存儲部423中擷取並提供與指定之屬性對應之資訊。 維護管理部420針對鑄造工廠9之每一個鑄模製造裝置10,將消耗零件及需要檢量之機器之資訊由顧客使用者或維修部門60之作業者預先註冊於維修記錄存儲部423中。進而,維護管理部420針對預先設定之消耗零件及機器中之每一個,根據更換或量測週期,計算更換時期或量測預定日、及自更換日或上一次量測日等起經過之天數。該等資訊能夠以更換時期資訊235進行畫面顯示或印字輸出。 進而,維護管理部420亦可具有將更換時期或量測預定日之通知以郵件發送至預先指定之郵件位址的功能。通知係以顧客使用者預先指定之天數及次數於更換時期或量測預定日之前發送。 進而,維護管理部420亦可包含進行維修部門60等對鑄造工廠9之巡迴計劃之提案及預約之受理等的功能。該等功能亦宜為能夠以更換時期資訊235進行畫面顯示。又,維護管理部420亦可於巡迴計劃之提案或預約受理時向顧客使用者指定之郵件位址以郵件發送接收通知。 進而,維護管理部420亦可具有基於運行時間之累計值而預測各設備之維修時期的預測部(未圖示)、及將維修時期通知給使用者終端之通知部(未圖示)。 維護管理部420之預測部具有如下功能,即,偵測鑄造工廠9之鑄模製造裝置10之控制器20及機器之故障之預兆,並推定偵測出之故障部位。故障預兆例如可藉由基於自控制器20接收之輸入資料160及輸出資料170進行分析而偵測。具體而言,維護管理部420例如可基於自鑄造工廠9之鑄模製造裝置10之控制器20接收之運行時間之累計值、及閥或泵等之耐久使用期間之資訊而預測該等之更換或維修時期。又,亦可監視自控制器20接收之流量計測值之經時變化而進行故障預兆之偵測。例如,於流量計測值之經時變化較長之跨度內流量逐漸減少或增加之情形時,亦可視為異常之預兆而進行偵測。 維護管理部420之通知部將故障預兆之資訊顯示於故障預兆236之畫面而通知給顧客使用者。又,維護管理部420之通知部亦可將偵測到之故障預兆相關之資訊以郵件發送至顧客使用者指定之郵件位址。 亦可基於複數個鑄造工廠9之資訊而事先調整各鑄造工廠9之巡迴或維修之計劃。例如,亦可具有日曆功能,亦可設置將維修之作業人員之計劃、零件之調撥計劃、及顧客使用者之計劃等組合且以能夠瀏覽之方式顯示的畫面。而且,亦可進行維修預定之調整而決定計劃並向顧客使用者指定之郵件位址發送提案郵件。計劃係以各顧客使用者之維修日程不重疊之方式進行調整。計劃之調整既可藉由程式自動地進行,亦可設為受理操作員對日程之指定之構成。 如以上所說明般,根據本實施形態之鑄造支援系統1,可基於自鑄造工廠9之鑄模製造裝置10收集到之資訊而進行維修時期或零件更換時期之預測並通知給使用者。藉此,對使用者而言,可於故障等產生之前進行零件更換或維修,因此,可防止因故障等而使生產線徒勞地停止,因此,可提昇生產性。又,由於基於實際之運行時間而推定維修時期,故與不考慮運行時間之情形相比,可於適當之時期進行維修,因此效率較佳。 又,由於可基於複數個鑄造工廠9之資訊而事先掌握各鑄造工廠9之維修計劃,故可事先進行複數個鑄造工廠9之維修計劃之調整,而可高效率地分配作業。又,可基於複數個鑄造工廠9之資訊而構築FAQ資訊或維修資訊,因此,可謀求維護檢查內容之最佳化及充實,而可提昇服務質量。 (第5實施形態) <推薦資訊提供功能> 圖27係表示本實施形態之鑄造支援裝置100之邏輯構成之功能區塊圖。鑄造支援裝置100除圖9之鑄造支援裝置100之構成以外,還具有產生部500,該產生部500產生與每個使用者之環境氣溫、濕度、及砂溫等製造條件對應的硬化劑與黏結劑之組成與供給量之推薦資訊。再者,於圖27中,未圖示與本實施形態之功能無關之構成。又,本實施形態之功能亦可與其他實施形態之功能組合。 產生部500若受理包含鑄造工廠9之氣溫及要製造之鑄模相關之資訊的製造條件,則根據製造條件產生對耐火性粒子添加之硬化劑或黏結劑之組成與供給量之推薦資訊。 提供部106將所產生之推薦資訊提供給該鑄造工廠9之使用者終端32。 所謂推薦資訊,係指對使用者之製造條件推薦的硬化劑或黏結劑之組成與供給量之處方資訊,包含黏結劑之種類或編號與至少2種硬化劑(於第1實施形態中為硬化劑A與硬化劑B)之種類或編號等資訊、及至少2種硬化劑之供給量之調配比之資訊。推薦資訊係作為硬化劑之複數個推薦處方模式按製造條件預先記憶。又,亦可更新該等資訊之記錄。 以下,作為製造條件,以鑄造工廠9之環境氣溫為例進行說明。製造條件亦可進而包含上述第1實施形態中所說明的顧客使用者操作控制器20之操作部或操作畫面而輸入之外部設定值(a1)~(a6)之至少任一個。該外部設定值由接收部102自控制器20接收。 鑄造工廠9之環境氣溫等資訊可使用鑄造支援裝置100之操作部(未圖示)而輸入。可輸入氣溫之值,或者,亦可輸入鑄造工廠9之處所地區與製造時期之資訊,還可讀出預先由管理伺服器40管理之鑄造工廠9之處所地區之資訊。 鑄造支援裝置100將推薦處方模式與氣溫或地區建立對應之表記憶於記憶部(未圖示)中。記憶部例如記憶有按氣溫之推薦處方表502、或按地區之推薦處方表506、或按地區之平均氣溫表504與按氣溫之推薦處方表502。 按氣溫之推薦處方表502係按氣溫建立關聯地記憶推薦處方之模式。產生部500自按氣溫之推薦處方表502中讀出而獲取與所輸入之氣溫對應之推薦之處方模式。 按地區之平均氣溫表504係與地區(例如按都道府縣)與季節(例如按月)建立關聯地記憶平均氣溫。產生部500係自按地區之平均氣溫表504中讀出與所輸入之地區及季節對應之平均氣溫,自按氣溫之推薦處方表502中讀出而獲取與所讀出之平均氣溫對應之推薦處方之模式。 按地區之推薦處方表506係與地區(例如按都道府縣)與季節(例如按月)建立關聯地記憶推薦處方之模式。產生部500係自按地區之推薦處方表506中讀出而獲取與所輸入之地區及季節對應之推薦處方之模式。 又,如上述第1實施形態中所說明般,對黏結劑設定的硬化劑A與硬化劑B之供給量之調配比係由控制器20之控制部152根據砂溫、溫度、濕度等條件進行調整。控制器20之控制部152係根據按硬化劑調配模式準備複數個之程式進行動作。 對使用者之製造條件推薦之硬化劑調配模式所對應的程式儲存於控制器20之記憶體或儲存器中。而且,由CPU執行該程式。再者,與硬化劑調配模式對應之程式較理想為決定硬化劑調配模式,且於由顧客使用者或維修部門60之負責者進行黏結劑、硬化劑等材料之準備時切換。 將程式儲存於控制器20之記憶體或儲存器之方法並無特別限定,例如,可自管理伺服器40下載而載入至控制器20之記憶體或儲存器,亦可由顧客使用者或維修部門60之負責者將於ROM中載入新的程式所得者安裝於控制器20,還可預先將複數個程式儲存於控制器20之儲存器,藉由管理者用之管理用程式切換要啟動之程式。或者,亦可設為如下構成,即,於控制器20之操作面板上,受理顧客使用者或維修部門60之負責者之選擇操作,使所選擇之程式啟動。 提供部106將產生部500所產生之推薦資訊提供給使用者終端32。提供方法與上述實施形態相同,可將推薦資訊顯示於顧客使用者用之網頁,亦可以郵件發送至使用者終端32。 又,提供部106亦可將推薦資訊提供給經營銷售部門80之電腦82。可自電腦82訪問經營銷售部門80專用之網頁而瀏覽推薦資訊,亦可對經營銷售部門80之負責者發送包含推薦資訊之郵件。經營銷售部門80之負責者可基於推薦資訊向顧客使用者進行材料購買之經營。 又,產生部500受理表示黏結劑之種類、製造之鑄模之形狀、鑄模之硬化速度、砂溫、耐火性粒子中再生砂之比率、再生砂之酸消耗量、以及鑄造工廠9之環境溫度及濕度中之至少任一個的資訊,並更新推薦資訊。 如上述第1實施形態中所說明般,對耐火性粒子添加之硬化劑係使黏結劑發生硬化反應之觸媒,混合使用至少2種不同種類之硬化劑。各硬化劑之調配比根據黏結劑之種類、製造之鑄模之形狀、要求之硬化速度、砂溫(耐火性粒子之溫度)、再生砂之酸消耗量、鑄造工廠9之環境氣溫、濕度等條件而改變。 因此,於本實施形態中,獲取以下之資訊之計測值、設定值或輸入值,根據製造條件更新推薦資訊。 (c1)黏結劑之種類、或製造之鑄模之形狀之資訊之輸入值 於顧客使用者專用之網頁設置輸入該等資訊之輸入畫面(未圖示),供顧客使用者使用使用者終端32進行輸入。 (c2)鑄模之硬化速度之計測值、或輸入值 可受理輸入畫面中之要求之鑄模之硬化速度之輸入,亦可使用利用下述方法獲得之實測值。 鑄模之硬化速度例如可藉由計測鑄模之溫度而計測。由此,鑄模製造裝置10具備計測鑄模之溫度之溫度感測器。 又,鑄模之硬化速度亦可藉由計測鑄模之導電率而計測。例如,可使用日本專利特開昭63-230252號公報記載之方法。由此,鑄模製造裝置10亦可具備計測鑄模之導電率之感測器。 (c3)砂溫之計測值 使用砂溫感測器132(圖2)計測砂溫。 (c4)再生砂之酸消耗量之計測值 利用特定之檢查方法測定再生砂之酸消耗量,使顧客使用者或經營銷售部門80之負責者使用使用者終端32將其結果輸入至顧客使用者專用之網頁之輸入畫面。 (c5)鑄造工廠9之環境氣溫之計測值 鑄模製造裝置10可獲取計測鑄造工廠9之環境氣溫或濕度之溫度感測器或濕度感測器之計測值,亦可由顧客使用者使用使用者終端32將鑄造工廠9中所設置之溫度計或濕度計之值輸入至顧客使用者專用之網頁之輸入畫面。 以下,以上述(c4)之再生砂之酸消耗量為例,對推薦資訊之更新方法進行說明。 於使用呋喃樹脂、硬化劑之情形時,因用作耐火性粒子之再生砂中殘留有黏結劑或硬化劑而使耐火性粒子有偏向酸性之傾向,較理想為根據其酸性度而改變硬化劑之調配比。因此,於本實施形態中,受理表示再生砂之酸消耗量之資訊而更新硬化劑之推薦處方模式。 由於已知新品之耐火性粒子之酸性度,故耐火性粒子之酸性度例如亦可根據計測或推定出酸消耗量之再生砂相對於耐火性粒子之混合比率而求出。由此,產生部500受理再生砂之酸消耗量之計測值、及再生砂之比率之至少任一者之輸入作為表示耐火性粒子之酸性度之資訊。 再生砂之酸消耗量之計測值、及再生砂之比率之資訊可由鑄造工廠9之顧客使用者使用使用者終端32訪問顧客使用者用之網頁並於耐火性粒子之資訊之輸入畫面(未圖示)中輸入。 鑄造支援裝置100預先與再生砂之酸消耗量建立對應地記憶對應之硬化劑之調配比之推薦處方模式。例如,於按氣溫且按酸性度之推薦處方表(未圖示)中,按氣溫地對應於再生砂之酸消耗量而對應有推薦處方模式。又,再生砂之酸消耗量既可以2個等級進行分類,亦可以3個等級以上之多個等級進行分類。產生部500獲取與再生砂之酸消耗量對應之推薦處方模式,並作為推薦資訊而輸出。 而且,藉由提供部106將更新後之推薦資訊提供給使用者終端32。 如以上所說明般,根據本實施形態,可根據製造條件產生硬化劑或黏結劑之組成與供給量之推薦資訊並提供給顧客使用者。藉此,可使控制器20以適合於使用者之環境之推薦處方模式之程式進行動作。又,經營銷售部門80可勸告顧客使用者購買推薦處方模式之硬化劑。 又,根據本實施形態,可根據顧客使用者之環境之變化更新推薦資訊並進行提供。藉此,可使控制器20以適應環境變化之適當之處方模式之程式進行動作。又,經營銷售部門80可勸告顧客使用者購買適當之處方模式之硬化劑。 (第6實施形態) <警報已讀通知功能> 圖28係表示本實施形態之控制器20與鑄造支援裝置100之邏輯構成之功能區塊圖。本實施形態之控制器20除圖4之控制器20之構成以外,還具有輸出部510。鑄造支援裝置100除圖9之鑄造支援裝置100之構成以外,還具有通知部512。再者,於圖28中,未圖示與本實施形態之功能無關之構成。又,本實施形態之功能亦可與其他實施形態之功能組合。 如上述第1實施形態中所說明般,控制器20之輸出資料170中包含各設備之警報資訊或異常資訊。輸出部510將該各設備之警報資訊或異常資訊經由通信部158發送至鑄造支援裝置100。 於鑄造支援裝置100中,通知部512若自控制器20接收各設備之警報資訊或異常資訊,則鑄造支援裝置100之負責者確認該警報資訊或異常資訊,並對該控制器20之鑄造工廠9之負責者通知鑄造支援裝置100之負責者已確認。 例如,如上述第1實施形態中所說明般,鑄造支援裝置100之接收部102若自控制器20接收警報資訊或異常資訊,則於圖18所示之控制器即時監控畫面227顯示設備之狀況。顧客可藉由自使用者終端32訪問顧客使用者用之網頁而瀏覽該畫面227。再者,亦可於使用者終端32顯示用於將其他警報或異常通知給顧客之警報畫面(未圖示)。 又,該畫面227或警報畫面亦顯示於維修部門60之電腦62。由此,維修部門60之操作員藉由瀏覽該等畫面,而能夠辨識鑄造工廠9中發生之設備之警報或異常。 又,亦可根據警報或異常之級別而將例如彈出畫面顯示、閃爍顯示、反轉顯示、動畫、語音輸出、警報音輸出等之至少任一個輸出至維修部門60之電腦62。藉此,維修部門60之操作員可迅速地發現警報或異常。 圖29係表示本實施形態之鑄造支援系統1之警報或異常發生時之資訊顯示處理之程序之一例的流程圖。 首先,利用控制器20偵測警報或異常,並將該資訊發送至鑄造支援裝置100(管理伺服器40)(步驟S101)。管理伺服器40接收資訊,並將接收到之資訊儲存於資料庫42中(步驟S103)。繼而,若偵測出所接收到之資訊表示警報或異常(步驟S105之是(YES)),則於上述警報畫面顯示表示警報或異常之資訊(步驟S107)。 繼而,顧客使用者使用使用者終端32瀏覽顧客使用者專用之網頁,在警報畫面上辨識已發生警報或異常(步驟S109)。又,於維修部門60,亦於電腦62顯示警報畫面,操作員在警報畫面上辨識已發生警報或異常(步驟S111)。 繼而,維修部門60之操作員若辨識出警報或異常,則對操作部進行操作,進行表示已辨識出警報或異常之發生之確認操作(步驟S113)。所謂操作部之操作,例如係指特定鍵操作、畫面操作等,並無特別限定。通知部512若受理該操作員之確認操作,則鑄造支援裝置100(管理伺服器40)於控制器即時監控畫面227或警報畫面中顯示表示已於維修部門60辨識出警報或異常之警報已讀標記(步驟S115)。 於使用者終端32,於警報畫面中顯示表示已於維修部門60辨識出警報或異常之警報已讀標記,因此,鑄造工廠9之顧客使用者可確認維修部門60已辨識出警報。再者,亦於電腦62之警報畫面顯示警報已讀標記(未圖示)。 例如,警報已讀標記亦可包含「警報認識」、「調查中」、「應對中」、「完成對策」等表示維修部門60之應對狀況之資訊而顯示。警報已讀標記既可以文本或圖標等影像顯示,亦可進行警報(警報或異常)顯示之變色、閃爍顯示之停止等顯示控制。又,亦可與警報已讀標記一併顯示確認時刻(更新時刻)。於鑄造工廠9,負責者自使用者終端32瀏覽顧客使用者用之網頁之控制器即時監控畫面227或警報畫面時,可知曉維修部門60之警報或異常之確認狀態或應對狀況。 如以上所說明般,根據本實施形態,可對顧客使用者通知維修部門60之負責者已確認警報或異常資訊,故顧客使用者之不安降低。進而,藉由具有通知維修部門60之應對狀況之構成,而顧客使用者可確認當前之狀況。 (第7實施形態) <統計處理功能> 圖30係表示本實施形態之鑄造支援裝置100之邏輯構成之功能區塊圖。本實施形態之鑄造支援裝置100除圖9之鑄造支援裝置100之構成以外,還具有統計處理部520。再者,於圖30中,未圖示與本實施形態之功能無關之構成。又,本實施形態之功能亦可與其他實施形態之功能組合。 統計處理部520對所存儲之複數個鑄造工廠9之資訊進行統計處理。提供部106將統計處理後之資訊提供給各鑄造工廠6之使用者終端32。 成為統計處理對象之資訊例如可包含上述各實施形態中所說明的設備運行資訊、警報資訊、異常資訊、鑄模製造裝置10之資訊、鑄模製造時使用之材料管理相關之資訊等。統計處理例如包含計算平均值、中間值、標準偏差等之處理。 統計處理部520擷取資訊中包含之至少一個項目滿足預先規定之條件之複數個資訊,對所擷取之複數個資訊進行統計處理。 例如,黏結劑或硬化劑之推薦處方模式如上所述,在某種程度上由鑄造工廠9之環境氣溫確定。即,可根據鑄造工廠9之處所地區或季節(夏與冬)特定出推薦處方模式。例如,藉由將自複數個鑄造工廠9收集到之處方模式之資訊按地區且按季節擷取並進行合計,可特定出適合於該季節之該地區之氣候之處方模式。而且,可向該地區之鑄造工廠9之顧客使用者提供適當之資訊。 如以上所說明般,根據本實施形態,可對不同之複數個顧客之鑄造工廠9之資訊進行統計處理,將資訊概括化並使其具有匿名性之後,向其他顧客提供資訊。藉此,其他鑄造工廠9之資訊機密部分能夠以非公開之狀態相互共享地利用複數個鑄造工廠9之資訊。不只是一個鑄造工廠9之資訊,而且可共享複數個鑄造工廠9之資訊,因此,成為基礎之資訊量增加,而精度提昇,可靠性亦提昇。如此,可在其他複數個鑄造工廠9之間共享基於與每個鑄造工廠9獨自所擁有之技術訣竅有關之資訊而產生的各種資訊。 (第8實施形態) <材料使用實績之提示功能> 圖31係表示本實施形態之鑄造支援裝置100之邏輯構成之主要部分的功能區塊圖。鑄造支援裝置100除圖9之鑄造支援裝置100之構成以外,進而具備合計部530與訂貨時期通知部532。又,鑄造支援裝置100亦可進而具備訂貨受理部540與訂貨處理部542。再者,於圖31中,未圖示與本實施形態之功能無關之構成。又,本實施形態之功能亦可與其他實施形態之功能組合。 本實施形態之鑄造支援裝置100之提供部106具有於圖10之材料管理畫面240中將材料之使用實績等資訊提供給顧客使用者及經營銷售部門80之負責者的功能。 合計部530針對每個鑄造工廠9或鑄造工廠9之每個設備,對黏結劑、硬化劑及砂量之使用量之計測值或輸入值分別進行合計,並記憶合計值。上述計測值可使用接收部102自各鑄造工廠9接收到之資訊、或藉由資訊存儲部104存儲於資料庫42之資訊。 訂貨時期通知部532係於各合計值分別超過特定之規定值或規定之數量之情形時,通知超過規定值或規定之數量之材料之訂貨時期。合計既可將材料之交貨日作為第一天而進行累計,亦可催促顧客使用者輸入第一天之設定。 訂貨時期通知部532向顧客使用者之使用者終端32或經營銷售部門80之電腦82通知材料之訂貨時期。通知方法包含於網頁顯示訂貨時期通知畫面534或以郵件發送。 訂貨受理部540係於各合計值分別超過規定值或規定之數量之情形時,受理超過規定值或規定之數量之材料之訂貨。訂貨處理部542基於所受理之材料之訂購,進行訂貨處理。 訂貨受理部540自顧客使用者專用之網頁之訂貨受理畫面544受理訂購手續。此時,於上述實施形態中,亦可基於推薦處方模式提示推薦之材料。 受理材料之編號與數量之輸入,由訂貨處理部542接收所受理之訂購資訊。 訂貨處理部542基於所接收到之訂購資訊進行訂貨處理。 又,於經營銷售部門80,接收訂貨時期之通知,進而,亦可進一步參照該顧客使用者之推薦資訊而向使用者進行新材料之購買之經營活動。又,亦可使向顧客使用者通知訂貨時期之合計值之規定值或規定之數量、與向經營銷售部門80通知訂貨時期之合計值之規定值或規定之數量不同。 根據本實施形態,可根據材料之使用實績向顧客使用者或經營銷售部門80通知材料之訂貨時期,因此,顧客使用者可防止材料缺貨,或者亦可直接進行訂購處理,因此方便性較佳。又,經營銷售部門80亦可參照該顧客之推薦資訊而進行新材料銷售之經營活動。 (其他實施形態) <製造方法> 又,本發明之製造方法係使用鑄造工廠之鑄模製造裝置的鑄模之製造方法,且係使用組入有上述第1~第8實施形態中之至少任一個所記載之鑄造支援系統之鑄模製造裝置的鑄模之製造方法。 以下,利用上述第1實施形態中所說明之圖12之流程圖,對本實施形態之鑄造支援系統1中之鑄模之製造方法進行說明。 包含鑄模製造裝置10(控制器20)獲取耐火性粒子之溫度(砂溫)之步驟(S11)、及根據各鑄造工廠之包含砂溫之條件調整硬化劑或黏結劑之組成及供給量的步驟(S13)。進而,包含鑄造支援裝置(伺服器裝置)100自鑄造工廠9之鑄模製造裝置10接收並存儲表示各設備之各步驟中之動作狀態之動作狀態資訊的步驟(S22)、使用所存儲之資訊監視各設備之各步驟中之動作狀態而檢測警報或異常的步驟(S24)、以及將檢測出之警報或異常之資訊發送至使用者終端之步驟(S32、S33)。

Furthermore, In all the schemas, Label the same components with the same symbols. The description is omitted as appropriate.  (First Embodiment) <Configuration of Casting Support System> Fig. 1 is a view conceptually showing a system configuration of a casting support system 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention. In the following figures, The configuration of the portion that is not related to the essence of the present invention is omitted and not shown.  Casting support system 1 for each foundry factory 9 (customer user (shown as user U1 in the figure) U2 U3, ...)) Provide a variety of services.  The casting support system 1 includes a casting support device 100 (management server 40 and web server 50) that supports casting in a mold manufacturing device 10 of a plurality of foundries 9 The user terminal 32 of the office 30 of each foundry factory is used by the customer.  The casting support device 100 (the management server 40 and the web server 50) is included in the cloud data center 7 (hereinafter, Also known as the cloud 7). Cloud Data Center 7 contains multiple computers.  The mold manufacturing apparatus 10 of each foundry 9 includes a plurality of controllers 20. Each controller 20 is connected to each other by using a cable. And via the gateway (GW: A communication unit such as a Gate Way 14 is connected to the mobile communication network 3. and, Each controller 20 and the management server 40 communicate with each other via the mobile telephone communication network 3. The management server 40 receives information related to the mold making apparatus 10 from the controller 20. The received information is stored in the database 42.  The casting support device 100 uses information collected from each foundry factory 9, Various information and services related to mold manufacturing are provided to customer users (casting factory 9). also, The information collected by the casting support device 100 is also supplied to each department of the casting support system 1 (maintenance department 60, Management department 70, Operating sales department 80).  Each department provides customers of the foundry support system 1 with various services related to the professional fields of each department. E.g, The maintenance department 60 provides the customer with an alarm and maintenance management related service of the casting manufacturing apparatus 10 of the foundry factory 9. The management department 70 performs customer management of each foundry factory 9, Further, management of the operation information of the mold manufacturing apparatus 10 is performed. The sales department 80 provides customers with services related to the sales of the mold manufacturing apparatus 10 and materials.  Each department has a computer 62, 72. 82. Each computer accesses the cloud 7 via a network such as the Internet 5.  Furthermore, I think that there are various systems in each department. Not limited. E.g, The computer contains a server or a personal computer. and then, It can also include mobile terminals that are carried and used by employees. Such as smart phones, mobile phone, Tablet terminal, PHS (Personal Handyphone System, Personal hand-held telephone system), PDA (Personal Digital Assistants, Personal digital assistant) and so on.  The user terminal 32 of the client user office 30 includes, for example, a smart phone, Tablet terminal, personal computer, Server computer, mobile phone, PHS, PDA, etc. However, it is not limited to these. The user terminal 32 is connected to the web server 50 via the Internet 5.  When each foundry factory 9 starts to use the service of the casting support system 1, User registration is performed in advance.  The management server 40 in turn manages information for each user. E.g, User information is registered for each foundry factory 9.  The web server 50 constructs a web page dedicated to the user on the website 52. Each user logs in by using the user terminal 32. Access to user-specific pages to accept a variety of services.  As mentioned above, The mold manufacturing apparatus 10 of the customer user and the casting support apparatus 100 are directly connected by the mobile telephone communication network 3, Without going through the Internet 5, etc. Therefore, the safety of information such as the operation state of the mold manufacturing apparatus 10 can be ensured. also, The casting support device 100 and the user terminal 32 via the Internet 5 Or the communication between computers in each department is using the user ID (identifier, The identifier) and the password are logged in to communicate, And encoding and processing the information sent and received during communication, With the above aspects, It ensures security.  <Configuration of Mold Making Apparatus> Next, The mold manufacturing apparatus 10 of the foundry 9 will be described.  Fig. 2 is a schematic view showing a mold manufacturing apparatus 10 of the present embodiment.  The mold manufacturing apparatus 10 has a hardener A groove 110a, Hardener B tank 110b, Hardener A supply portion 112a, Hardener B supply unit 112b, Hardener A uses flow meter 116a, Hardener B uses flow meter 116b, Adhesive tank 120, a binder supply unit 122, Hopper 130, Sand temperature sensor 132, Mixing machine 140, And control panel 142.  Hardener A supply portion 112a, Hardener B supply unit 112b, And the adhesive supply unit 122 is connected to the controller 20, respectively. The supply amount of the hardener and the binder is controlled according to the control conditions.  In this embodiment, The two different types of curing agent A and curing agent B are supplied to the kneading machine 140 through the pipe 114 by a specific arrangement from the curing agent A tank 110a and the curing agent B tank 110b.  The hardener A flowmeter 116a and the hardener B flowmeter 116b are measured from the outside of the pipe 114 in a non-contact manner from each of the hardener tanks (the hardener A tank 110a and the hardener B tank 110b) by each hardener supply. A pipe-clip flowmeter in which the flow rates of the respective hardeners supplied to the portion (the curing agent A supply portion 112a and the curing agent B supply portion 112b) are supplied. The flowmeter 116a for the hardener A and the flow meter 116b for the hardener B measure the flow rates of the hardener A and the hardener B flowing in the pipe 114 from the outside of the pipe 114, respectively. The measured value is sent to the controller 20.  As each flow meter 116, Can use electromagnetic, Coriolis force, Ultrasonic, Eddy flow type flowmeters using various measurement principles, Yu Jia is an ultrasonic tube clamp type flowmeter.  Pipe clamp flowmeters and other flow meters, For example, an electromagnetic flowmeter or a Coriolis flowmeter, The price is lower.  also, As a feature of the pipe clamp type flowmeter, The following aspects can be cited.  (i) since it can be installed from the outside, Therefore, the piping project will not take time and cost.  (ii) since the installation location is movable, Therefore, it is possible to adjust to a place where the measurement accuracy is better without stopping the manufacturing line.  (iii) since there is no pressure loss, Therefore, it will not affect the production conditions.  (iv) due to non-contact with the material of the measurement object, Therefore, even if the material of the measurement object is corrosive liquid (acidic, Alkaline, Solvent, etc.), It will not adversely affect the meter. Due to the contact with the material of the measurement object, Therefore, the meter will not deteriorate. High-precision and stable measurement can be achieved. also, That is, when dust or the like is mixed into the liquid, The meter will not deteriorate, High-precision and stable measurement can be achieved.  in this way, By using a tube-clamped flow meter, The flow rate of the hardener actually flowing through the pipe 114 can be accurately measured. therefore, By indicating the measured value of the flow rate and the supply amount of the hardener (ie, The difference between the output indication value of the pump that supplies the hardener from the tank to the pipe 114 is corrected, More reliable supply of hardener, The hardening speed or usable time of the mold can be stabilized.  Pipe clamp flowmeters have this feature, Therefore, the supply amount can be monitored from a different viewpoint from the case of using other flow meters. E.g, Accurately grasp the change over time of the supply of hardener, therefore, E.g, When the flow is gradually reduced or increased over a longer span, It can also be detected as a sign of anomalies.  A flow meter 116a for the curing agent A and a flow meter 116b for the curing agent B are attached to the outer side of the pipe 114 of the kneading machine 140 from the hardener A tank 110a and the hardener B tank 110b, respectively. I think there are various ways to install it. E.g, First of all, The base of each flow meter 116 is mounted so as to sandwich the pipe 114 from both sides of the pipe 114. Then, The flow meter 116 is detachably mounted to the base.  A contact medium such as grease may be interposed between the pipe 114 and the flow meter 116. By applying the grease to the pipe 114 as described above, The sensing surface can be closely adhered to the surface of the pipe 114 to enhance the transmission of the ultrasonic signal. also, The piping 114 to which each of the flow meters 116 is installed is preferably disposed substantially vertically. The reason for this is to prevent the measurement accuracy from being lowered due to the air bubbles in the pipe 114.  also, Each flow meter 116 is as illustrated in Figure 8, The measured value is sent to the controller 20. An analogy connection between the flow meter 116 and the controller 20 is possible. Digital connections are also possible. also, The flow meter 116 may also include a wireless communication unit. The wireless communication unit may be, for example, a wireless LAN (Local Area Network, Regional network), Or Bluetooth (registered trademark), etc. for short-range communication. In the case of a wireless communication unit, The flow meter 116 can send the measured value to the controller 20, The measured value can also be sent to the GW 14. When the measurement value is directly transmitted to the GW 14 without passing through the controller 20, GW14 pre-sets the IP of the flow meter 116 (Internet Protocol, The identification information such as the Internet Protocol address is managed in association with the identification information of the controller 20.  The measured values are output on a case-by-case basis or on a regular basis or at any time. also, Each flow meter 116 can also have a memory that retains the measured value for a particular period of time. With this composition, When the communication environment is deteriorating, The measured value of the specific time period can be memorized in the memory and transmitted when the communication environment becomes good.  The hardener is a liquid catalyst that causes the binder to harden. When the binder is an organic self-hardening resin, The hardener can be used to utilize sulfuric acid, Phosphoric acid, The hardening catalyst of the acid sulfonic acid of the organic sulfonic acid is classified into a hardening agent which is classified into a fast hardening property and a late hardening property by adjusting the acid strength and the acid concentration. Or an organic ester capable of adjusting the curing rate depending on the degree of hydrolysis and the degree of compatibility. When the binder is an inorganic self-hardening resin, As the hardener, an organic ester capable of adjusting the curing speed depending on the degree of hydrolysis and compatibility can be used.  The hopper 130 is a groove of fire-resistant particles such as sand or artificial sand. This puts the refractory particles into the kneading machine 140. The sand temperature sensor 132 is disposed near the input port of the refractory particles of the hopper 130. Detecting the temperature of the refractory particles, The sand temperature is sent to the controller 20.  As a fire resistant particle, Can use, for example, sand, Zircon, chromite, Peridot, Alumina, Synthetic mullite or other mixed sand or mixed sand, It can also be any of new sand and reclaimed sand. Furthermore, The term "recycled sand" refers to a fire-resistant particle obtained by regenerating a material used as a mold material in the past.  The kneading machine 140 will have fire resistant particles, Adhesive, And hardening agent mixing, The resulting kneading is flowed into block 144. The control panel 142 of the kneading machine 140 is connected to the controller 20. The stirring action of the kneading machine 140 is controlled.  The binder supply unit 122 puts the binder into the kneading machine 140 from the binder tank 120. The flow rate of the adhesive supplied from the adhesive tank 120 to the kneading machine 140 can also be measured by a flow meter (not shown). And sent to the controller 20. The supply amount of the binder is controlled by the controller 20. The controller 20 can further adjust the amount of supply of the binder using the flow rate measurement of the flow meter (not shown).  As a binder, For example, a furan resin which is an acid curable resin, An organic self-hardening resin such as a phenol resin or an alkali phenol resin as an ester curable resin, also, An inorganic self-hardening resin such as water glass can be used.  <Manufacturing Procedure of Mold Making Apparatus 10> FIG. 3 is a view for explaining a mold manufacturing step of the mold manufacturing apparatus 10 in the foundry 9 of the present embodiment.  The mold manufacturing step includes a molding step S1 Demolding step S2 And pouring step S3.  First of all, In the molding step S1, Fire-resistant particles such as sand or artificial sand are supplied from the hopper 130 to the kneading machine 140. Further, the binder and the hardener are introduced into the kneading machine 140. The control unit 140 is provided with a control panel 142. The mixing of the kneading machine 140 is controlled.  The composition and supply amount of the hardener charged to the kneading machine 140 are adjusted by the controller 20. E.g, Two or more different types of hardeners are supplied according to the supply temperature of the specific blending ratio according to the sand temperature. The sand temperature sensor 132 is disposed near the outlet of the hopper 130. The controller 20 receives the sand temperature from the sand temperature sensor 132, It is used as a control condition or monitors the temperature of the sand during the adjustment of the hardener. and then, Controller 20 also receives signals from control panel 142. The operating state of the kneading machine 140 is monitored.  The composition and supply amount of the hardener means, for example, the kind of the hardener, Ratio, And supply. By the controller 20, for example, each of the hardener supply portions 112a that supplies the curing agent to the pipe 114 from the curing agent tank is controlled, 112b output (for example, Pump frequency setting), And choose the type of hardener to supply, Adjusting the blending ratio of a plurality of hardeners, The amount of each hardener supplied, etc.  Using the kneading machine 140 to fire-resistant particles, Adhesive, The kneaded sand obtained by kneading the hardener is filled into a master mold such as a wooden mold. And the mold is molded.  Then, In the demolding step S2, When the mixed sand hardens, Pull out the master mold such as a wooden mold, Thereby, a mold is produced (only the upper mold is shown in the drawing). The mold made here is, for example, a mold, Die, The core or the like is combined and used in the next step.  Then, In the pouring step S3, To the mold, Die, A molten metal is injected into a mold obtained by mold clamping or the like. then, Cooled by molten metal, After curing, It was taken out as a product from the mold. Furthermore, The sand is regenerated, It can be utilized again in the molding step S1.  <Functional Configuration of Controller 20> Fig. 4 is a functional block diagram showing the logical configuration of the controller 20 for controlling the mold manufacturing apparatus 10 of the present embodiment. Figure 4 does not show the composition of the hardware unit. And the block representing the functional unit.  The controller 20 includes a control unit 152, Supply amount acquisition unit 154, Sand temperature acquisition unit 156, And a communication unit 158.  The sand temperature acquisition unit 156 acquires the temperature of the refractory particles. in particular, The sand temperature sensor 132 receives the sand temperature.  The supply amount acquisition unit 154 acquires a measured value of the supply amount of each of the hardeners added to the refractory particles and the binder. in particular, The self-hardener A flow meter 116a and the hardener B flow meter 116b receive the measured value of the supply amount of each hardener.  The control unit 152 adjusts the fire-resistant particles according to the conditions (sand temperature, etc.) of each foundry factory 9 (more specifically, 矽 sand) added hardener or binder (more specifically, Furan resin, Composition and supply amount of alkaline phenolic resin). In this embodiment, The hardener is supplied with two types of hardener A and hardener B in a specific blending ratio.  In this embodiment, E.g, Adding a binder to the fire-resistant particles and two different hardeners A, Hardener B. Here, Hardener A uses a higher acid concentration than hardener B, Has a faster hardening rate than hardener B. As shown in Figure 5, The control unit 152 adjusts the mixing ratio of the two types of curing agents A and B according to the sand temperature. It is possible to keep the hardening speed constant.  Secondly, The input and output data of the controller 20 will be described. FIG. 6 is a diagram for explaining input and output data of the controller 20.  The input data 160 of FIG. 6(a) includes the temperature of the sand received from the sand temperature sensor 132, The ambient temperature of the foundry factory 9 received from a thermometer not shown, The environmental humidity of the foundry 9 received from a hygrometer not shown, External set value, And internal settings.
