Molding Management System - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18417327 titled 'Molding Management System

The abstract describes a molding management system that stores information on defective articles for each item of molded article in different periods, generates reports based on this information, and outputs these reports.

  • The system includes a storage section for storing molded article information.
  • The storage section records the number of defective articles for each item of molded article in a first period and a second, longer period.
  • A calculation section generates reports based on the molded article information.
  • The output section then outputs these reports, which include identification information, actual defect rates for each item in both periods, and defect rate targets for each item in the first period.

Potential Applications: - Quality control in manufacturing processes - Identifying trends in defect rates over time - Improving production efficiency by targeting specific items with high defect rates

Problems Solved: - Lack of comprehensive data on defect rates for different molded articles - Difficulty in identifying areas for improvement in manufacturing processes - Inefficient reporting systems for quality control purposes

Benefits: - Enhanced quality control measures - Targeted improvements in production processes - Increased efficiency and reduced waste in manufacturing operations

Commercial Applications: Title: "Enhancing Quality Control in Manufacturing Processes with Molding Management System" This technology can be applied in industries such as automotive, electronics, and consumer goods manufacturing to improve product quality and reduce defects.

Questions about Molding Management System: 1. How does the system differentiate between defective and non-defective articles? The system likely uses predefined criteria to classify articles as defective based on specific quality standards.

2. Can the system adapt to changes in production processes over time? The system may be designed to be flexible and customizable to accommodate changes in manufacturing operations.


Original Abstract Submitted

A molding management system includes a storage section configured to store molded article information including information on a number of defective articles for each item of molded article molded in a first period and information on a number of defective articles for each item of molded article molded in a second period, which is longer than the first period, a calculation section configured to generate a report based on the molded article information, and an output section that outputs the report generated by the calculation section. The report includes identification information, which is information for identifying an item of a molded article, information related to an actual defect rate for each item of molded article molded in the first period, information related to a defect rate target for each item of molded article in the first period, and information related to an actual defect rate for each item of molded article molded in the second period.
