BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
[0035] Figure 1The figure is a flow chart of the system of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0036] In order to deepen the understanding of the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with examples. The following examples are only used to explain the present invention and do not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0037] like Figure 1 As shown, a printing machine Internet of Things integrated system, which realizes real-time monitoring and analysis of various key parameters of the printing machine through the collaborative work of multiple modules, thereby improving production efficiency and ensuring the safety and stability of the production process.
[0038] It includes the following main modules: information collection module, data processing module, visualization module, data transmission module, service guidance module and alarm module. Each module is connected by wire or wireless through the data transmission module to form a complete Internet of Things system.
[0039] Among them, the information collection modules are distributed in various key parts of the printing machine, which can monitor the changes of various parameters in the production process in real time. Specifically including:
[0040] Gas leak detection: Use gas detectors, specifically the independent combustible gas detector HM-713, installed next to the printing press burner. By real-time monitoring of the gas concentration in the air, ensure timely alarm in case of gas leaks.
[0041] Leakage detection: Use a unidirectional ammeter, specifically 48×48-500mA-RS485, installed on the grounding wire of the printing press to detect in real time whether the printing press has leakage and trigger the safety protection mechanism in case of abnormality.
[0042] Static electricity detection: Use a static electricity detector, specifically the intelligent static electricity sensor QP-C01-RS485, installed above the paper feeding device of the printing press to detect the static electricity accumulation on the surface of the printing paper in real time to prevent the static electricity from affecting the printing quality. Of course, the ion fan can also be used to automatically eliminate excessive static electricity to prevent the static electricity from affecting the printing quality.
[0043] Vibration detection: Use vibration sensors installed on the middle wall of the printing press to monitor the overall vibration of the printing press and detect potential mechanical failures in a timely manner. Of course, spectrum analysis can also be used to identify the source of abnormal vibration, such as mechanical failure or imbalance. The system can automatically slow down or stop the machine after detecting abnormal vibration and generate maintenance recommendations.
[0044] Oven circulating air parameter detection: Temperature and humidity sensors and air volume and pressure sensors are installed on the circulating air duct of the oven to monitor the circulating air parameters of each stage in real time to ensure the stability of the drying process.
[0045] Oven temperature detection: Use a temperature detector installed on the outer surface of the oven to detect the temperature of the oven in real time to prevent printing quality problems caused by overheating or uneven temperature.
[0046] External exhaust air parameter detection: Use wind speed transmitters and duct dust concentration detectors, installed in the exhaust duct, to monitor the flow rate and dust concentration of exhaust gas in real time to ensure compliance with environmental protection standards. When the data exceeds the standard, the system can automatically adjust the fan speed and prompt maintenance personnel to clean the exhaust duct.
[0047] Environmental noise detection: Use a decibel meter, specific model JHM-NS02-RS485, installed on the printing press frame to monitor the noise level in the workshop in real time to ensure that the working environment of the operators meets health standards.
[0048] Printing accuracy detection: The whole still picture system is installed on the winding side of the printing press. Through high-precision analysis of the printed image, the printing accuracy is monitored in real time. The whole still picture system uses a high-resolution camera and image processing software, combined with artificial intelligence algorithms, to automatically identify and correct subtle printing deviations. The system not only records accuracy data, but also provides accuracy optimization suggestions based on historical data trends.
[0049] Defect recording: A visual online detector is installed on the winding and traction side of the printing press to record the defects that occur during the printing process in real time, providing data support for subsequent analysis. At the same time, the visual online detector uses multi-spectral scanning technology to identify various types of defects (such as ink overflow, paper damage, color difference, etc.). The detector compares with the standard image, classifies and stores the frequency and location of each defect, and generates a quality report.
[0050] Safety protection of the stamping part: Use infrared light sensor, specifically the E3Z-D61 photoelectric switch, installed on the roller of the stamping part. When foreign objects are detected, the machine will be stopped immediately to avoid safety accidents.
[0051] Oil parameter detection of plate roller: Use oil detector, installed on the plate roller rotating part, to monitor the status of oil in real time to ensure the lubricity of machine operation.
[0052] Furthermore, the data processing module is responsible for analyzing and processing the data collected by the information collection module. This module uses artificial intelligence to classify, count and calculate various data, generate detailed charts and reports, and transmit them to the visualization display module. In addition, the data processing module can also generate suggestions for optimizing the production process based on historical data and set parameters, and send them to operators through the service guidance module.
[0053] The visualization display module mainly includes a dashboard installed in the workshop. The user interface of the dashboard is divided into a primary interface and a secondary interface. The primary interface is used to display the processed and analyzed data, including energy consumption curves, production costs, output and other information, which are intuitively presented in the form of charts and dashboards. The secondary interface directly displays the original data obtained from the information collection module, providing operators with more detailed parameter information so that they can adjust the production process in a timely manner.
[0054] The data transmission module is responsible for transmitting data between modules by wire or wirelessly, ensuring smooth data communication between the information acquisition module, data processing module, visualization module and service guidance module. In this embodiment, wired transmission is used, so each information acquisition unit uses a collector with an R485 interface. The module uses the latest industrial Internet of Things transmission protocol to ensure the stability and real-time performance of data transmission. In other embodiments, one or more combinations of 5G network, LAN or Internet can also be used.
[0055] The service guidance module is set on the user's terminal device, such as the printing machine human-machine interface, tablet computer, smart phone or computer, to provide system maintenance reminders and operation guidance to the operator. The module includes functions such as remote service diagnosis, instruction manual, electrical system fault and troubleshooting, air intake inspection and maintenance, hot air drying abnormality and troubleshooting, scraper inspection and maintenance, and material collection and release abnormality and troubleshooting. In addition, the service guidance module can also give operators tips on optimizing the operation process based on the production suggestions provided by the data processing module.
[0056] As another further optimized embodiment, the present invention also includes an alarm module. The module is divided into two forms: on-site alarm and visual alarm. On-site alarm is performed through an alarm light installed next to the printing press, and the alarm light is immediately triggered to flash when an abnormal situation is detected. Visual alarm is issued through the alarm interface of the visual display module, prompting the operator to pay attention to and deal with the abnormality in time.
[0057] Specifically, when the system detects data anomalies (such as high temperature, leakage, excessive static electricity, etc.), it will automatically trigger an alarm and ensure production safety through preset emergency response procedures, such as automatic shutdown, gas or power cut-off, etc.
[0058] The printing machine Internet of Things integrated system of the present invention monitors various parameters in the printing process in real time through the information collection module. The data processing module analyzes and processes the collected data, generates various production reports and suggestions, and transmits the data to the visualization display module and the service guidance module through the data transmission module. The visualization display module displays real-time production parameters and data analysis results on the workshop board to help operators keep abreast of production dynamics. The service guidance module guides operators to perform necessary maintenance on the system through the user terminal and optimizes the operation process according to production suggestions.
[0059] The system of the present invention detects printing accuracy and defect data in real time, analyzes them through artificial intelligence algorithms, and automatically adjusts printing parameters such as speed, pressure, ink volume, etc. to improve production quality. The system also correlates static electricity, vibration, leakage and other data with printing quality to find out potential sources of quality problems.
