Injection moulding machine provides reliable product quality data
Cooperation with ARBURG / Digitize existing machines with MICA®
(PresseBox) - An ARBURG injection moulding machine at the HARTING stand (Hall 11 / C15) will not only produce plastic parts, but also supply significant volumes of data. In cooperation with ARBURG, HARTING will use this practical example to show how e.g. energy measurements and ambient readings can be used to monitor product quality and signs of wear.
Data from machines and equipment systems are the basis for future performance improvements within modern industrial production environments. Enhanced with RFID tags, such systems also ensure optimised material flow in the production process. HARTING will use the ALLROUNDER injection moulding machine from ARBURG to show the latest solutions in the fields of RFID-based tool recognition, energy measurement and OPC UA integration.
OPC UA uses ARBURG e.g. for the online provision of process information to higher-level systems. The ALLROUNDER at HARTING is equipped with an ARBURG IIoT gateway for this purpose. This links the injection moulding machine with the new customer portal "arburgXworld" and connects it to the ARBURG booth at the Hannover Messe (Hall 6/J10). This makes e.g. remote maintenance possible via ARBURG Remote Service. OPC UA is also used for the company''s own MES (ARBURG host computer system ALS), which ARBURG has had in its product range for years and which will also be on show at the Hannover Messe industrial trade fair.
With the MICAonsequently, implementations towards standardised communication protocols such as OPC UA are very simple and require no additional hardware outlays.
For integration tasks, for example in the direction of the Cloud or specific MES systems, HARTING always leverages the MICA.network in cooperation with its customers. The right system integrators can be found here with respect to the specific task or technological expertise. Thus the technology group has teamed with our partner PCO in the machine area to demonstrate how such RFID logistics systems can be implemented to suit the customer''s requirements.
The HARTING Technology Group is one of the world''s leading providers of industrial connection technology for the three lifelines of Data, Signal and Power and has 14 production plants and 44 sales companies. Moreover, the company also produces retail checkout systems, electromagnetic actuators for automotive and industrial series use, charging equipment for electric vehicles, as well as hardware and software for customers and applications in automation technology, mechanical and plant engineering, robotics and transportation engineering. In the 2017/18 business year, some 5,000 employees generated sales of EUR 762 million.
