Injection molding system
An injection molding system includes a molding device, an inspection device configured to inspect a molded product and a control device that includes a storage unit, and a reception unit configured to receive a change content of a parameter included in a standard molding condition. The control device executes a first control of forming the molded product under a second molding condition in which the parameter is changed based on the change content, a second control of forming the molded product under a third molding condition in which the same parameter is changed, a third control of associating the second molding condition with an inspection result of the molded product formed under the second molding condition and storing the association, and a fourth control of associating the third molding condition with the inspection result of the molded product formed under the third molding condition and storing the association.
1 . An injection molding system comprising:
a molding device configured to discharge a material into a molding pattern and perform injection-mold to form a molded product according to a first molding condition;
an inspection device configured to inspect at least one of a shape and a weight of the molded product and capture an image of the molded product;
a robot configured to convey the molded product from the molding device to the inspection device; and
a control device, wherein the control device includes
a storage unit, and
a reception unit configured to receive a change content of a parameter included in a standard molding condition which is a predetermined molding condition, and the control device executes
a first control of causing the molding device to form the molded product under a second molding condition in which the parameter is changed in accordance with the change content received by the reception unit,
a second control of causing the molding device to form the molded product under a third molding condition in which the same parameter as the parameter changed in the first control is changed,
a third control of associating the second molding condition with an inspection result, obtained by the inspection device and including a second image, of the molded product formed under the second molding condition and storing the association in the storage unit, and
a fourth control of associating the third molding condition with the inspection result of the molded product formed under the third molding condition and storing the association in the storage unit, the association comprising a third image obtained by the inspection device, and
the third molding condition is a condition different from the second molding condition.
2 . The injection molding system according to claim 1 , wherein
the control device outputs data on at least one of a correlation between the changed parameter and the inspection result, and a contribution rate of the changed parameter to the inspection result.
3 . The injection molding system according to claim 1 , wherein
the control device stores, in the storage unit, an association in which the molding condition, the inspection result of the molded product formed under the molding condition, and a physical property of the material are associated for each of a plurality of the molding conditions in which the parameter is changed in accordance with the change content.
4 . The injection molding system according to claim 2 , wherein
the storage unit stores a plurality of the molding conditions in which the parameter is changed in accordance with the change content, and
the control device reads the parameter having a highest contribution rate from the storage unit based on the shape of the molded product and the physical property of the material, and transmits the parameter to the reception unit.
5 . The injection molding system according to claim 1 , wherein
the control device causes the molded product to be formed over a plurality of times under each of the plurality of the molding conditions in which the parameter is changed in accordance with the change content, and
does not cause the inspection device to perform the inspection on at least a first molded product when a mold temperature or a barrel temperature is included as the parameter to be changed according to the change content.
6 . The injection molding system according to claim 1 , wherein
the molding pattern has a plurality of cavities, and
the control device forms the molded product for each of a plurality of the cavities under each of the plurality of the molding conditions in which the parameter is changed in accordance with the change content, and stores, for each cavity, an association in which the molding condition and the inspection result of the molded product formed under the molding condition are associated.
7 . The injection molding system according to claim 6 , wherein
the control device outputs an output indicating that there is an abnormality in the molding pattern when a rejected product is generated in the specific cavity in molding performed under the plurality of the molding conditions in which the parameter is changed.
8 . The injection molding system according to claim 1 , wherein the standard molding condition is derived from computer-aided engineering (CAE) analysis of basic information associated with the molded product, the change content defining a molding process to form a predetermined quantity of molded products with a predetermined sequence to the change of the parameter for the predetermined quantity of molded products as compared to the standard molding condition.
