Abstract

Apparatus and method for controlling a molding machine includes structure and function for a human machine interface control panel having: (i) a flat panel display screen; (ii) a pointing device; (iii) a plurality of pushbuttons overlaid with or without icons; (iv) a housing containing the above and the associated electronics; (v) structure to uniquely identify each users preferred configuration; (vi) structure to connect to a remote controller for both digital information and video signal communication; (vii) a connection for receiving external power to drive the panel's electronics and display; and (viii) software running in the remote controller to provide all the operating functions of the human machine interface.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for controlling a molding machine, and more specifically to a man-machine interface in the form of a control panel of a machine controller, which controls and monitors a molding system (such as a metal or plastic injection molding machine) The operation and processing and related equipment (such as robots or other product processing equipment). The present invention also relates to a man-machine interface that provides operators with means to simplify and optimize the operation of manual functions of the machine. Background technique [0002] The man-machine interface of a machine includes a display, an optional indicating device, and some buttons, which provide data entry, screen selection, machine operation selection and manual operation trigger functions. In the molding system, each independent machine is manually operated and assigned a dedicated button. The more complex the injection molding proc...
