Progress management for each frame in line molding for foundries! The schedule created on the computer is reflected in the molding instructions of the on-site PLC (sequencer).
The casting line information management system is a system (MES) that creates a manufacturing schedule and controls the production line by communicating with the PLC (programmable logic controller). At the timing of replacing the old computer system with a Windows environment, we improved the functionality to manage progress at the unit level instead of by lot. Additionally, since data from the PLC can be acquired on the PC side, it is used not only for progress management but also for inputting and managing actual results and information analysis. 【Features】 ■ The actual line layout is displayed on the computer screen, making it easy to grasp the status of core delivery, pouring, and disassembly. ■ Information management at the unit level (product name, molding date and time, pouring date and time, mold damage status, etc.) ■ The schedule created on the computer is automatically written to the PLC as molding instructions. 【Basic Functions】 ■ Management of the current schedule and registration/change of the next schedule. ■ Management of the line status. ■ Management of molding and pouring actual results. ■ Management of process progress. ■ Inquiry of planned and actual unforming. *For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.
