Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] The traditional mold opening control method of a hydraulic injection molding machine is a five-stage mold opening method. The whole mold opening process is divided into five stages. Each stage has independently set mold opening speed, mold opening position and other parameters. Then the mold opening process of each stage is executed according to the set parameters. Since the parameters of each stage are independently set, each parameter of each stage needs to be obtained independently after debugging. Too many parameters need to be debugged. Debugging personnel often need to frequently adjust parameters and test according to personal experience. The debugging process is relatively complicated. In addition, due to the differences in mold structure and performance of the hydraulic injection molding machine, the mold opening parameter debugging is often difficult. In addition, in the traditional mold opening control method of the hydraulic injection molding machine, the switching of the mold opening speed between stages is in the form of a broken line. In the mold opening process, each stage of the mold opening speed is strictly executed according to the set value. Therefore, it is easy to cause impact, vibration and mold damage in the mold opening process, and the stability of the mold opening process is poor. SUMMARY

The deceleration point is intelligently calculated based on the deceleration coefficient, the speed of the motor and the position of the mold plate. The mold opening speed is planned in real time according to the deceleration coefficient and the position feedback of the mold plate during the deceleration process. The deceleration process is intelligently planned to realize mold opening control.

[0005] The intelligent mold opening control method of the hydraulic injection molding machine comprises the following steps:

[0006] Step 1, setting the mold opening control period T c , the rising slope k of the drive speed command of the mold opening action, the deceleration coefficient a of the mold opening action, the set speed v set of the mold opening and the target position x end of the mold opening in the controller of the hydraulic injection molding machine, wherein the value of the mold opening control period T c is 0.5 ms, the value range of the rising slope k is 1-1000 ms, which is selected according to the actual needs of mold opening control, the deceleration coefficient a is determined by debugging in the value range of 1-100 according to the actual needs of mold opening control, and v set and xend According to the actual production process setting; the initial speed command in the controller of the hydraulic injection molding machine is recorded as v(0), the initial speed command v(0) is initialized as 0, so that the controller of the hydraulic injection molding machine controls the motor driver to drive the motor to rotate according to the speed command v(0), that is, the speed of the motor is v(0);

[0007] Step 2, set the mold opening control period variable, recorded as t, initialize t, t = 0;

[0017]

[0018] If v'(t) is less than v set , the speed command v(t) of the current mold opening control period is equal to v'(t), if not less than, the speed command v(t) of the current mold opening control period is equal to v set Then the controller of the hydraulic injection molding machine sends the speed command v(t) of the current mold opening control period to the motor driver, so that the motor driver controls the motor to rotate according to the speed command v(t) of the current mold opening control period, that is, the speed of the motor is v(t), and when the current mold opening control period ends, return to step 3-1 and enter the next mold opening control period.

[0020] Step 4-1, update the value of t by using the sum of the current value of t and 1, and enter the tth mold opening control period;

[0021] Step 4-2, collect the actual position of the mold plate in the current mold opening control period through the position sensor, and record it as x(t), if x(t) is less than x end , enter step 4-3, if x(t) is not less than x end , it indicates that the target position of mold opening has been reached, and the mold opening work of the hydraulic injection molding machine is completed.

[0022] Step 4-3, record the distance between the actual position of the mold plate in the current mold opening control period and the target position of mold opening as Δx(t), and calculate Δx(t) by using formula (4):

[0023] Δx(t) = x end -x(t) (4)

[0024] Step 4-4, calculate the speed command v(t) of the current mold opening control period by using formula (5):

[0025]

[0026] Step 4-5, the controller of the hydraulic injection molding machine sends the speed command v(t) of the current mold opening control period to the motor driver, so that the motor driver controls the motor to rotate according to the speed command v(t) of the current mold opening control period, and when the current mold opening control period ends, return to step 4-1 and enter the next mold opening control period.
