– Cyber-Physical System: Our product comes with the total package of software and hardware to collect information from the injection machines to send it to the cloud server. This allows the information to be digitalized and accessible anywhere.

– Hardware: Our device is a Data Collector installed on each individual injection machine with a built-in WIFI antenna that transfers the data through a router and to the cloud server.

– Software: Our software not only has the capacity to store a large amount of data, it can also perform data analysis automatically with the frequency of every hour. We also turn data into easy-to-understand graphs and downloadable datasheets for further analysis. The goal for IoM (Internet of Molding) is ultimately to allow top-level managers to see real-time production of the factory without having to be physically there all the time. It frees up time to focus on solving actual problems within the factory. 

– No Brand Limitation: Able to connect and caught signals from 95% of all global injection machine brands (with the exception of machines that are antique or without signals that can be captured). Our product breaks the OPCUA standard problem thus eliminate the need to upgrade machines to support OPCUA.

– Low MES Investment Cost:  Manufacturing Execution System (MES) is a highly sought system to connect devices on the shop floor to monitor and control the data exchanged between the devices. The system allows data and processes to become transparent with the aim to improve production output and manufacturing operations. Currently, it is still a very expensive system to invest in, but our team has developed a device that can help clients easily digest the benefits of MES using a much lower investment, targeted specifically for the injection molding industry. Our device can connect all injection machines to display production, cycle time, and OEE. This is highly suitable for companies in Thailand because of our product’s ability to educate employee’s mindsets on the importance of factory digitalization and transparency as Thailand is slow in technology adoption.

– Customer First: Our RD team is heavily invested in our client’s feedback because we understand the complexity and the unpredictability factors in the field of injection molding. Therefore, we are motivated to keep improving the functions and requirements to better fit the needs and usability with a new version every year. 

– Dashboard: All-at-once glance of the factory production process with details on cycle time and manufacturing production progress

– Data Analysis: Machine Utilization Rate, Production Rate (Total, Hourly, Stability), NG/Goods Rate

– Production Efficiency: Using Cycle time to determine potential scrap rate, machine/mold/cooling channel maintenance time, and expected order completion date

– OEE: Overall Equipment Effectiveness for measuring manufacturing productivity using all the collected data (Availability, Quality, and Performance)

– Daily Report: For top-level managers to receive real-time production status without relying on manual reporting. 

Info: All machines with a cooling channel need maintenance. We have a solution to clean and maintain the cooling channel using the natural, physical principle of vibration. Effective results can be seen within a few hours and could even clean up to 4 molds at once.

Problem: The formation and build-up of the scale inside the cooling channel for every 0.1mm can have a high effect on the efficiency and capacity use of the mold or machine.

Benefits: Our solution uses a chemical-free cleaning mechanism to quickly blast away the scale formed inside the cooling channels. By maintaining the mold or machines at its highest efficiency at all times it helps reduce energy costs, maintain product quality, and condition stability.    

• Reduce maintenance time by 80%
• Recover equipment function
• Prevent equipment overheating
• May clean up to 4 molds at once, depending on the size of the mold
• Impact of scale on machines and molds

• Info: Using simulation software, we can predict the mold flow of plastic and check for any reasons that can cause flow imbalance.
  
  Problem: Flow imbalance causes parts to produce NG or defective parts that may require secondary processing or become scrap, which are all additional costs to companies.
  
  Benefit: We excel in redesigning mold, especially parts with multi-cavity, to not only increasing flow balance to 100% but also increase yield rate and production efficiency.   
  

• Info: Using IoM (Internet of Molding) to capture cycle time data from the injection machines to perform useful analysis and find the best target cycle time for each mold.
  
  Problem: Unstable cycle time can cause production instability, resulting in an impact on quantity and quality. Without proper data or analysis, we will be unable to identify the root cause, which can be from many factors including labor, mold, or machine condition.
  
  Benefits: IoM allows user to view the data in a comprehensible way at once glance. By stabilizing the cycle time, it can help increase production efficiency and quality. Stabilizing cycle time is also one of the basic requirements in order to move towards Automation.

Info

Info: Minnotec’s patented product takes advantage of polarized lights to quickly reflect the area of stress residue on the parts after production.

Problem: Stress on parts cause parts to have the potential to crack easily and cause painted parts to change color over time.

Benefits: By revealing the stress areas, we can troubleshoot the problem using software simulation to increase product durability and reduce the problem of plastic discolor.
