Molding Management System - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18613619 titled 'Molding Management System
The abstract describes a molding management system that includes a device storage unit, a defect classification storage unit, receiving units, and a device defect storage unit. This system is designed to store information related to devices used in production and defects in molded articles or materials.
- Device storage unit stores device identification information, including molding machines.
- Defect classification storage unit stores defect classification information related to defects in molded articles or materials.
- First receiving unit receives selection of device identification information.
- Second receiving unit receives selection of defect classification information.
- Device defect storage unit stores device identification and defect classification information in association with each other.
- Third receiving unit receives defect classification information in case of defects in molded articles or materials, associated with device identification information.
Potential Applications: - Quality control in manufacturing processes - Streamlining defect identification and classification - Improving overall production efficiency
Problems Solved: - Efficient storage and retrieval of device and defect information - Enhanced defect classification and analysis - Facilitates quick response to defects in molded articles
Benefits: - Increased production efficiency - Improved quality control measures - Enhanced defect analysis capabilities
Commercial Applications: Title: "Advanced Molding Management System for Enhanced Production Efficiency" This technology can be applied in industries such as automotive, electronics, and consumer goods manufacturing to optimize production processes and improve product quality.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does this system improve defect classification in molded articles? 2. What are the key advantages of storing device and defect information in association with each other?
Original Abstract Submitted
A molding management system includes: a device storage unit configured to store a plurality of pieces of device identification information that are identification information of a device used in production of a molded article and including at least a molding machine; a defect classification storage unit configured to store master data including a plurality pieces of defect classification information that are information related to classification of a defect of the molded article or a material used for molding the molded article; a first receiving unit configured to receive selection of the device identification information stored in the device storage unit; a second receiving unit configured to receive selection of the defect classification information provided in the master data; a device defect storage unit configured to store the device identification information received by the first receiving unit and the defect classification information received by the second receiving unit in association with each other; and a third receiving unit configured to receive, in a case where the defect occurs in the molded article or the material, selection of the defect classification information stored in the device defect storage unit in association with the device identification information of the device used in production of the molded article when the defect occurs.
