Abstract

A machine, for example, a plastic injection molding machine, is parameterized based on a start value of a parameter. Based on the start value, a simulation is carried out using a machine model. Corresponding curve progressions are displayed to the user. The curve progressions can be modified whereby resulting in a modified parameter. Based on the modified parameter, a simulation can be carried out once again. The simulated actual values, the measured set values and, optionally, temporal trends of determined machine parameters are displayed during the operation of the machine.

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung und ein Verfahren zur Eingabe eines Maschinenparameters, insbesondere für die Para- meterisierung einer Fertigungsvorrichtung, zum Beispiel einer Produktions-, Werkzeug-, Kunststoff-Spritzgieß- , Spritzblas- form-, Textil-, Holzbearbeitungs- oder Verpackungsmaschine oder einer Fertigungszelle, die mit einem Automatisierungssystems ausgestattet sein kann.The invention relates to a device and a method for entering a machine parameter, in particular for the parameterization of a manufacturing device, for example a production, tool, plastic injection molding, injection blow molding, textile, woodworking or packaging machine or one Manufacturing cell that can be equipped with an automation system.
Aus dem Stand der Technik sind Bedienoberflächen für Kunst- stoff-Spritzgießmaschinen bekannt, bei denen die Bedienung und Parameterisierung der Maschine seitengestützt erfolgt. Falls eine einzelne Seite zur Darstellung der anzuzeigenden Daten oder Eingabeparameter nicht ausreicht, wird bei solchen vorbekannten Systeme eine weitere Seite zum Abrufen angebo- ten.User interfaces for plastic injection molding machines are known from the prior art, in which the machine is operated and parameterized with side support. If a single page is not sufficient to display the data or input parameters to be displayed, such a known system offers another page to be called up.
Die sich hieraus ergebende Seitenorganisation ist oft unsystematisch und verwirrend, so dass für die Bedienung und Parameterisierung einer Maschine eine längere Einarbeitungszeit erforderlich ist. Ferner kann es durch die unklare Seitenorganisation auch zu Fehlbedienungen kommen.The resulting page organization is often unsystematic and confusing, so that a longer training period is required to operate and parameterize a machine. The unclear page organization can also lead to incorrect operation.
Insbesondere für die Parameterisierung der Maschine muß der Anwender bei vorbekannten Systemen über durch lange Erfahrung erworbenes Know-how verfügen. Die Einstellung der für eineIn particular for the parameterization of the machine, the user must have know-how acquired through long experience in previously known systems. The setting of one
Produktionsaufgabe benötigten Parameter setzt Erfahrungswissen voraus; dennoch kann es durch nicht optimale Wahl von Parametern zu Verlusten im Produktionsanlauf kommen.Production parameters require knowledge of experience; nevertheless, the non-optimal selection of parameters can lead to losses in the start-up of production.
Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde eine verbesserte Vorrichtung und ein verbessertes Verfahren für die Ein- gäbe eines Maschinenparameters sowie für die Beobachtung der Maschine zu schaffen.The invention is therefore based on the object of an improved device and an improved method for the a machine parameter as well as for the observation of the machine.
Die der Erfindung zugrundeliegende Aufgabe wird jeweils durch die Merkmale der unabhängigen Patentansprüche gelöst. Bevor- zugte Ausführungsformen sind in den abhängigen Patentansprüchen angegeben .The object on which the invention is based is achieved in each case by the features of the independent patent claims. Preferred embodiments are specified in the dependent claims.
Die Erfindung ermöglicht es die Parameterisierung einer Maschine ausgehend von einem Startwert des Parameters vorzuneh- men. Basierend auf dem Startwert wird zunächst eine Simulation durchgeführt. Zur Simulation wird auf ein in einem entsprechenden Computer gespeichertes Maschinenmodell zurückgegriffen .The invention enables a machine to be parameterized on the basis of a start value of the parameter. Based on the starting value, a simulation is first carried out. A machine model stored in a corresponding computer is used for the simulation.
Daraus wird für einen Maschinenzyklus ein entsprechender Kurvenverlauf berechnet und angezeigt . Entspricht der Kurvenverlauf nicht den Wünschen des Anwenders im Hinblick auf die gestellte Produktionsaufgäbe, so kann der Anwender den angezeigten Kurvenverlauf unmittelbar verändern. Daraus wird un- mittelbar oder mittelbar der geänderte Parameter ermittelt und ggf. eine weitere Simulation für die Kontrolle der Änderung durchgeführt.From this, a corresponding curve profile is calculated and displayed for a machine cycle. If the curve does not correspond to the wishes of the user with regard to the production tasks, the user can change the displayed curve immediately. The changed parameter is determined directly or indirectly from this and, if necessary, a further simulation is carried out to check the change.
Nachdem der simulierte Kurvenverlauf dem gewünschten Verlauf in einem Maschinenzyklus entspricht, kann die Maschine in Betrieb gesetzt werden. Während des Betriebs der Maschine werden Prozessdaten erfasst. Basierend auf den Prozessdaten werden entsprechende Ist-Kurven angezeigt und mit den simulierten und berechneten Ist-Kurven verglichen. Wahlweise kann auch eine analoge Anzeige einzelner Kennwerte erfolgen.After the simulated curve course corresponds to the desired course in a machine cycle, the machine can be put into operation. Process data is recorded while the machine is operating. Based on the process data, the corresponding actual curves are displayed and compared with the simulated and calculated actual curves. Optionally, an analog display of individual characteristic values can also take place.
In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform werden bestimmte Kenngrößen über mehrere Zyklen hin ermittelt und gespeichert. Der zeitliche Verlauf der Kenngrößen in Abhängigkeit von den Ma- schinenzyklen wird graphisch dargestellt, so dass für den Benutzer Trends sichtbar werden. Sobald sich ein Trend abzeichnet, der aus dem erlaubten Bereich hinausführt, kann der Be- nutzer bereits eingreifen, bevor es zu einem Storfall der Maschine kommt .In a preferred embodiment, certain parameters are determined and stored over several cycles. The time course of the parameters depending on the machine cycles is shown graphically so that trends become visible to the user. As soon as a trend emerges that leads out of the permitted range, the user can Intervene before the machine breaks down.

Die Figur 1 zeigt ein Flussdiagramm für die Parameterisierung einer Maschine. Zunächst wird in dem Schritt 1 der Startwert eines Parameters für den Betrieb der Maschine im Hinblick auf eine bestimmte Produktionsaufgabe eingegeben. Im Schritt 2 wird dieser Startwert des Parameters gespeichert.FIG. 1 shows a flow diagram for the parameterization of a machine. First, in step 1, the start value of a parameter for the operation of the machine is entered with regard to a specific production task. In step 2 this start value of the parameter is saved.
Im darauffolgenden Schritt 3 wird dieser Startwert in ein Software-technisch realisiertes Modell der Maschine eingegeben, um den Betrieb der Maschine zu simulieren. Ein oder mehrere Verlaufe von den Betrieb der Maschine beschreibenden Größen werden bei der Simulation in dem Schritt 3 berechnet und in Schritt 4 angezeigt .In the following step 3, this starting value is entered into a software-technical model of the machine in order to simulate the operation of the machine. One or more courses describing the operation of the machine Sizes are calculated in step 3 during the simulation and displayed in step 4.
Der Benutzer kann anhand der angezeigten Kurvenverläufe überprüfen, ob der vorgegebene Startwert des Parameters der gewünschten Produktionsaufgabe entspricht. Falls dies nicht der Fall ist kann der Benutzer die simulierten Kurvenverläufe an die gewünschten Verläufe anpassen, indem er entsprechende Änderungen über eine graphische Schnittstelle eingibt. Dies erfolgt in dem Schritt 5.The user can use the displayed curves to check whether the specified start value of the parameter corresponds to the desired production task. If this is not the case, the user can adapt the simulated curve profiles to the desired profiles by entering corresponding changes via a graphical interface. This is done in step 5.
Basierend auf den geänderten Kurvenverläufen wird eine entsprechende Änderung des Parameters in dem Schritt 6 bestimmt und wiederum in dem Schritt 2 gespeichert. Basierend auf dem geänderten Parameterwert kann dann nochmals eine Simulation in dem Schritt 3 erfolgen, um die sich daraus ergebenden Kurvenverläufe zu überprüfen. Ggf. kann dann auch erneut eine Änderung der Kurvenverläufe erfolgen.On the basis of the changed curve profiles, a corresponding change in the parameter is determined in step 6 and in turn stored in step 2. Based on the changed parameter value, a simulation can then be carried out again in step 3 in order to check the curve profiles resulting therefrom. Possibly. the curves can then be changed again.
Nach der Parameterisierung der Maschine kann diese in Betrieb genommen werden. Wie in Fig. 2 dargestellt, erfolgt während des Betriebs der Maschine eine Prozessdatenerfassung in dem Schritt 7, um eine oder mehrere für den Betrieb der Maschine charakteristische Kenngrößen zu erfassen. Basierend auf den erfassten Prozessdaten werden eine oder mehrere Ist-Kurven zur Darstellung des tatsächlichen Verlaufs der entsprechenden Kenngrößen angezeigt.After the machine has been parameterized, it can be put into operation. As shown in FIG. 2, process data is recorded in step 7 during the operation of the machine in order to record one or more parameters which are characteristic of the operation of the machine. Based on the recorded process data, one or more actual curves are displayed to show the actual course of the corresponding parameters.
Diese Anzeige erfolgt im Vergleich zu den durch die Paramet- rierung und Simulation erhaltenen Soll-Kurven. Die entspre- chende Anzeige von Ist-Kurven und Soll-Kurven erfolgt in dem Schritt 8 auf einer Bedieneroberfläche. Wahlweise können in dem Schritt 9 zusätzlich oder alternativ zu den Kurvenverläufen des Schritts 8 eine oder mehrere Kenngrößen gesondert dargestellt werden. Dazu kann eine analoge Anzeige gewählt werden . In dem Schritt 10 wird e n zeitlicher Verlauf einer bestimmten Kenngroße über mehrere Maschinenzyklen ermittelt Die sich daraus ergebenden Trends werden in dem Schritt 11 angezeigt. Dadurch ist der Nutzer m die Lage versetzt, fruhzei- tig auf eine sich abzeichnende Störung zu reagieren ohne das es tatsächlich zum Storfall kommtThis display is made in comparison to the target curves obtained through parameterization and simulation. The corresponding display of actual curves and target curves takes place in step 8 on a user interface.
