Mould
Cycles and maintenance.
Industry and segment
Plastics and packaging: moulds, batches and scrap
In plastics and packaging, series production is fast; a small setting error quickly means a lot of scrap. The system links mould, machine and batch and shows scrap rate and downtime straight away.

Mould and machine
For each mould, cycle count, maintenance interval and the machine used are recorded. A warning is given when a mould nears its maintenance count; setting values are stored per product.
Automatic reading of cycle data from the machine depends on the machine.
Batch and scrap
The granulate or film batch is linked to the work order, so if a problem arises it can be found which raw material was used. Scrap reasons are recorded and compared by shift and product.
Additional requirements for food-contact packaging are clarified with a specialist.
