[0025] In a more specific application of the present application, the injection molding machine controller is a special-purpose automatic control unit integrating hardware circuit, control algorithm and human-computer interaction interface, which can real-time regulate and control the key process parameters of pressure, speed, temperature and time in the injection molding process according to the preset program or the instructions output by the process correlation closed-loop optimization module.
[0026] The specific embodiments of the present application include the following contents:
[0027] The defective product image acquisition module: configure a defective product acquisition device to acquire defective product image data of the injection molded product in real time from multiple angles and transmit the data to the defect intelligent recognition module;
[0028] Further, the defective product acquisition device includes a high-resolution industrial camera, a customized light source system, and an image acquisition card and transmission component, and the defective product image data includes core visual data, associated metadata and quality check data.
[0029] In this embodiment, it is specifically pointed out that the high-resolution industrial camera adopts an industrial area camera with a resolution of not less than 5 million pixels, supports a high-speed shutter with a shutter speed of ≥1 / 1000s, avoids image blur caused by product transmission movement, and converts optical signals of the product appearance into digital image data; the customized light source system includes a main light source and an auxiliary light source, the main light source can be a ring-shaped LED light source or a strip-shaped LED light source, the auxiliary light source can be a coaxial light source, the brightness and color temperature of the light source are adjustable, the light source angle and brightness are adjusted to eliminate product surface reflection and shadow; the image acquisition card and transmission component adopt an industrial image acquisition card supporting Camera Link or GigE Vision protocol, matched with a shielded gigabit Ethernet transmission line, the acquisition card is responsible for high-speed decoding and caching of the digital image signals output by the industrial camera to avoid data loss, and the transmission component ensures real-time transmission of the image data at a rate of ≥25 frames / second, matching the beat of the injection molding production line.
[0030] As shown in Figure 2 The acquisition process of the defective product image data is as follows:
[0031] S1.1: Set up a collection trigger mechanism. According to the production cycle signal of the injection molding machine, when the injection molding machine completes a molding, send a molding cycle start signal through an optical sensor to start the image collection process, realize the synchronization of the production cycle and the collection cycle, set up a mechanical positioning clamp at the collection station to ensure that the placement posture and position of the finished product are consistent when it enters the collection area each time;
[0032] S1.2: Set 3-5 fixed collection angles for the high-defect area of the injection molded product, covering the front, side, gate position, parting line, and bottom five key areas. Load the defect product collection equipment on the multi-axis motion platform to complete all angle image shooting within 2-3 seconds, collect 1-2 images at each angle, and the collection efficiency matches the production line beat;
[0033] S1.3: After collection is completed, automatically verify the clarity and brightness of each image. If there are unqualified images such as blur, overexposure, and underexposure, trigger re-collection. If collection fails for three consecutive times, send an alarm signal to the injection molding machine controller to remind the operator to check the equipment.
[0034] It should be further explained that the core visual data is for the key appearance of the injection molded product, i.e. the position where defects are prone to occur. According to historical data, collect injection molded product images from different angles, including front images, side images, and gate position images. Defects in the front image include but are not limited to shrinkage, bubbles, and color difference; defects in the side image include but are not limited to warping and flash; the gate position image focuses on the starting point of the melt filling and the defects in the surrounding area, including but not limited to material shortage and depression;
[0035] The associated metadata includes production cycle identification information and collection scene information. The production cycle identification information specifically includes production batch number, production cycle serial number, and injection molding machine number. The collection scene information specifically includes collection angle label and collection timestamp;
[0036] Quality verification data includes clarity parameters, brightness parameters, and lighting parameters. The clarity parameter refers to the clarity index calculated by the contrast of image gray value, for example, contrast ≥ 0.8, which is used to judge whether the image is blurred to avoid missing defects due to image blur. The brightness parameter refers to the average brightness value of the image, for example, brightness value 200-255 cd / m 2 The lighting parameter refers to the color temperature of the light source, for example, 5000K, which is used to confirm whether the image is overexposed or underexposed to ensure that the image truly presents the defect characteristics.
[0037] Defect intelligent recognition module: includes a defect intelligent recognition model, which identifies defect associated data through the defect intelligent recognition model, converts the defect associated data into standard defect text, and transmits it to the defect scoring quantization module;
[0038] Further, the defect-related data includes defect type, defect severity level, and defect position information, the defect severity level includes L1, L2, and L3, and the standard defect text adopts the string format of “defect type-severity level-position information”.
[0039] In the embodiment, it needs to be particularly pointed out that the construction of the defect recognition type needs to select a deep convolutional neural network ResNet-50 / ResNet-101, extract the subtle features of the defects in the injection product image according to the residual connection structure of the network, and add a multi-label classification output layer after the ResNet base network in view of the characteristics that multiple types of defects coexist in the injection product, collect a large number of labeled images covering common defect types of the injection product, and manually label the defect type, defect severity level, and defect position information of each picture to form a training data set, use the binary cross-entropy loss function to adapt to the multi-label classification task, select the AdamW optimizer, suppress overfitting through weight decay, introduce the learning rate cosine annealing strategy to improve the model convergence speed and recognition accuracy, and ensure that the defect type recognition accuracy is ≥95% and the position positioning error is ≤0.5 mm.
[0040] It needs to be further pointed out that the defect type recognition refers to extracting the pixel-level features in the defect product image data through the defect intelligent recognition model, matching the feature templates in the training data set, and outputting the 1-3 defect types with the highest probability; the defect severity level is the quantitative features of the defect intelligent recognition model, including area, length, and depth, which are compared with the preset threshold to judge the corresponding defect severity level, which is divided into area dimension, influence range, and morphological characteristics, for example, the length of the flash is less than 1 mm for L1, 1-3 mm for L2, and greater than 3 mm for L3, the influence range is, for example, the shrinkage area accounts for less than 5% of the surface area of the product for L1, 5%-15% for L2, and greater than 15% for L3, and the morphological characteristics are, for example, the maximum gap between the product and the reference surface caused by warping is less than 0.1 mm for L1, 0.1-0.3 mm for L2, and greater than 0.3 mm for L3; the defect position information is the specific coordinate range of the defect in the image framed by the target detection algorithm of the defect intelligent recognition model, which is converted into the actual physical position description of the product.
[0041] The defect scoring quantification module: based on the standard defect text, the defect weight coefficient and the defect severity value are introduced to calculate the comprehensive defect score, which is transmitted to the process-related closed-loop optimization module;
[0042] Further, the acquisition of the comprehensive defect score is based on the defect weight coefficient Wi and the defect severity value Li of a single defect to calculate the single defect score, and the weighted sum of all single defect scores of a single injection product in a production cycle is calculated through the formula The comprehensive defect score DS is calculated, and n is the number of defects of the injection molded product.
[0043] In this embodiment, it needs to be specifically pointed out that the defect weight coefficient is determined according to expert experience and historical loss cost. The expert experience refers to that the injection molding industry process experts or quality engineers score according to the influence degree of various defects on product function, appearance and assembly performance. The historical loss cost refers to that the economic loss caused by various defects in the past 1-3 years of production data is adjusted according to the loss ratio. The defect severity value corresponds to the defect severity level, L1=1, L2=2, L3=3. The defect types include material shortage, shrinkage, flash, warpage and weld line, and the corresponding weights are 0.8, 0.6, 0.2, 0.7 and 0.3 respectively.
[0044] It needs to be further pointed out that the higher the comprehensive defect score DS is, the worse the quality of the injection molded product is. DS belongs to 0-1 as a high-quality product without obvious defects. DS belongs to 1-3 as a qualified product with moderate defects but without affecting the core function. DS is greater than 3 as an unqualified product with serious defects, which needs to be scrapped or reworked.
[0045] The process parameter synchronous collection module: deploy the core collection tool, collect the whole-process process parameters synchronized with the production cycle of the defective product in real time, store them into the time sequence process database, and transfer them to the process risk dynamic analysis module;
[0046] Further, the core collection tool includes an injection molding machine controller data interface, a high-frequency sensor and a time sequence process database. The core collection tool collects the whole-process process parameters of the injection molded product production based on a synchronous trigger signal mechanism. The whole-process process parameters include pressure parameters, speed parameters, temperature parameters and time parameters.
[0047] In this embodiment, it needs to be specifically pointed out that the injection molding machine controller data interface adopts an OPC UA industrial communication protocol interface, directly reads the real-time process parameters stored in the injection molding machine controller, does not need to make large-scale modification to the injection molding machine, and is suitable for the injection molding machine controllers of mainstream brands.
[0048] The high-frequency sensor is a high-frequency industrial sensor deployed to supplement the key parameters that cannot be directly collected by the injection molding machine controller, including a cavity pressure sensor, a melt temperature sensor and a multi-axis speed sensor. The cavity pressure sensor is installed inside the mold cavity to directly collect the pressure change of the melt in the cavity, with an accuracy of ±0.1 MPa and a sampling frequency of ≥100 Hz. The melt temperature sensor is installed at the nozzle of the injection molding machine to collect the temperature of the melt before it comes out of the mold in real time, with an accuracy of ±1℃ and a sampling frequency of 50 Hz. The multi-axis speed sensor is installed at the screw drive mechanism of the injection molding machine to collect the multi-stage injection speed with an accuracy of ±1 mm / s and a sampling frequency of 100 Hz.
[0049] The time series process database refers to a deployed industrial-grade time series database, such as InfluxDB, used to store process parameter data with timestamps, support high-concurrency writing (≥1000 / s) and fast time series query, and adapt to the continuous production rhythm of the injection molding production line.
[0050] It should be further explained that the synchronization trigger signal mechanism specifically refers to taking the molding cycle start signal of the injection molding machine as the reference trigger point. When the injection molding machine completes demolding and a new molding cycle starts, the injection molding machine controller sends a molding cycle start signal to the process parameter synchronization acquisition module through the OPC UA interface, and attaches a unique production cycle serial number. The process parameter synchronization acquisition module triggers the injection molding machine controller data interface and sensors, adopts differentiated acquisition frequencies according to the time lengths of each stage of the injection molding process, uses high-frequency acquisition 50-100Hz in the injection and holding stages to ensure capturing transient fluctuations in pressure and speed, and uses low-frequency acquisition 1-5Hz in the cooling stage to reduce data redundancy and acquire full-process process parameters.
[0051] The pressure parameters in the full-process process parameters include screw head pressure, cavity pressure, and holding pressure. The cavity pressure is the preferred acquisition item, directly reflecting the filling state of the melt in the cavity. The holding pressure needs to record the real-time change value in the holding stage. The speed parameters include filling stage speed, holding stage speed, and end-of-injection speed. According to the speed stages set by the injection molding machine, 3-5 data points are acquired in each stage to form a complete speed curve. The temperature parameters include barrel feeding section temperature, melting section temperature, metering section temperature, mold temperature, and melt temperature. The barrel temperature needs to acquire the actual temperature of each heating area, and the mold temperature needs to acquire the temperature on both sides of the moving mold and the fixed mold. The time parameters include holding time, holding switch position, injection time, cooling time, and production cycle time. The holding switch position records the specific travel unit of the screw from the injection stage to the holding stage, which is mm. The cycle time is the total time consumed for a single molding.
[0052] Process risk dynamic analysis module: based on the full-process process parameters, calculate the single-parameter risk index, introduce the parameter weight, calculate the comprehensive risk index, and transfer to the process correlation closed-loop optimization module;
[0053] Further, the calculation of the single-parameter risk index needs to obtain the real-time value X j of each parameter in the full-process process parameters, the optimal target value XT j corresponding to each parameter in the process standard database, the maximum allowable running value USL j , and the minimum allowable running value LSL j , through the formula:
[0054] ,
[0055] The single-parameter risk index R of each parameter is calculated j , j represents the jth parameter in the whole-process parameter, the single-parameter risk index of each parameter and the parameter weight V j The comprehensive risk index R is calculated by the formula:
[0056] ,
[0057] The comprehensive risk index R is calculated by the formula: j The sum of all V j is 1, the initial parameter weight is obtained by principal component analysis, and a parameter dynamic adjustment mechanism is constructed to adjust the parameter weight.
[0058] In this embodiment, it is particularly pointed out that the real-time value of the pressure parameter is the average value in the cycle, the real-time value of the speed parameter is the stage average of the multi-stage injection speed curve, the real-time value of the temperature parameter is the cycle average of the barrel feeding section temperature, the melting section temperature, the metering section temperature, the mold temperature and the melt temperature, and the real-time value of the time parameter is the actual length of the holding pressure time, the injection time and the cooling time; The process standard database is set by the material supplier and the process engineer, the optimal target value is the ideal value of the parameter operation, the allowed maximum value and the allowed minimum value are the range of parameter fluctuation, and the parameter is out of control if it exceeds the range, and the range of single-parameter risk index is 0-1.
[0059] The initial parameter weight is set by principal component analysis, data analysis is performed on the single-parameter risk index and the comprehensive defect score of the history of 3-6 months, the first N parameters with the greatest impact in the comprehensive defect score are extracted, for example, the holding pressure, the cavity pressure and the melt temperature, and higher initial weights are given, for example, 0.3, 0.25 and 0.2, and lower weights are given to secondary parameters, for example, the initial weight of the cooling time is 0.05;
[0060] The parameter dynamic adjustment mechanism updates the weight coefficient based on the parameter adjustment effect data fed back by the subsequent process correlation closed-loop optimization module, for example, if the holding pressure is adjusted for several times and the decrease amplitude of the comprehensive defect score is significantly higher than that of adjusting other parameters, the weight of the holding pressure is increased, for example, from 0.3 to 0.35; if the injection speed adjustment has little effect on the comprehensive defect score, the weight is reduced, for example, from 0.15 to 0.1, to ensure that the weight matches the actual impact of the parameter.
[0061] The process correlation closed-loop optimization module: based on the comprehensive defect score and the risk dynamic analysis result, a defect-process correlation matrix is constructed, real-time early warning judgment is performed, a reverse optimization scheme is generated, and feedback is fed back to the defect score quantification module and the process risk dynamic analysis module.
[0062] Further, as shown in Figure 3 , the construction steps of the defect-process correlation matrix are as follows:
[0063] S2.1: Obtain the comprehensive defect score in the defect score quantification module and the standardized defect text, obtain the single-parameter risk index and the comprehensive risk index in the process risk dynamic analysis module, associate the two types of data through the time stamp, and form a sample data set;
[0064] In this embodiment, it needs to be specifically pointed out that the number of samples in the sample data set needs to be accumulated to more than 100,000, covering different defect types and process parameter fluctuation scenarios, and the number of samples corresponding to each common defect text, such as shrinkage-L2-gate, lack of material-L3-cavity, is not less than 500.
[0065] S2.2: Select a machine learning algorithm, divide the sample data set into a training set and a test set according to a ratio of 8:2, take the single-parameter risk index as an input variable and the comprehensive defect score as an output variable, and train a defect-process quantification prediction model;
[0066] In this embodiment, it needs to be specifically pointed out that the single-parameter risk index is a core process variable affecting defects, the comprehensive defect score is a quantitative index reflecting quality results, the machine learning algorithm includes random forest, gradient boosting tree and neural network, among which the random forest is suitable for processing nonlinear relationship and can output the contribution of each R j to the DS, the gradient boosting tree is good at processing high-dimensional data and improving the prediction accuracy in the small sample scenario, and the neural network is suitable for the scenario with a large amount of data and can capture more complex parameter interaction; the verification of the defect-process quantification prediction model refers to calculating the deviation rate of the predicted value DS1 and the actual value DS to evaluate the model accuracy, and the deviation rate is required to be less than 5%; if the accuracy is not up to standard, the model is optimized by increasing the sample size and adjusting the algorithm parameters.
[0067] S2.3: Extract the number of standard defect texts as the row of the association matrix, extract the number of process parameters as the column of the association matrix, obtain the contribution of the single-parameter risk index to the defect text as the numerical value of the matrix cell based on the defect-process quantification prediction model, and verify and dynamically update the defect-process association matrix.
[0068] In this embodiment, it needs to be specifically pointed out that the number of standard defect texts needs to remove the number of repeated defect texts as the row of the defect-process correlation matrix, and the value of the matrix cell is, for example, the feature importance of the random forest model output R_holding pressure to shrink-L2-close-to-gate is 0.8, then the corresponding cell in the matrix is filled with 0.8, which represents that the contribution of the holding pressure risk to the shrink defect reaches 80%; verifying and dynamically updating the defect-process correlation matrix specifically means selecting 10% of the validation set samples, substituting them into the correlation matrix to predict the defect text, comparing with the actual defect text, verifying the accuracy of the matrix correlation, and requiring the matching rate to be ≥90%, with the continuous accumulation of new production samples, repeating the process of S2.1-S2.3, retraining the model and updating the correlation value in the matrix, to ensure that the matrix can adapt to the changes of process, material and mold.
[0069] It needs to be further pointed out that real-time early warning judgment specifically means that based on the current production cycle comprehensive risk index and single parameter risk index, the early warning threshold set according to the enterprise quality standard and production experience, for example, R≥0.6 is high-risk early warning, 0.3≤R<0.6 is medium-risk early warning, the threshold can be dynamically adjusted through historical data statistics, for example, when R≥0.6, the defect rate is more than 15%; when the real-time R exceeds the set threshold, the system immediately triggers the early warning, and pushes the early warning information through the workshop display screen and the operator terminal, including the current R value, risk level and production cycle serial number, reminding the relevant personnel to pay attention.
[0070] Further, the generation steps of the reverse optimization scheme are as follows:
[0071] S3.1: determine the process parameters that make the comprehensive risk index R drop below the early warning threshold, while ensuring that the predicted comprehensive defect score DS1<1, and set the constraint condition;
[0072] S3.2: select optimization algorithm to simulate the influence of different process parameter adjustment combinations on R and DS1, preferentially adjust the core process parameters with high contribution in the defect-process correlation matrix, and output the optimization scheme;
[0073] S3.3: the optimization scheme is automatically issued to the injection molding machine controller through the OPC UA interface, and the injection molding machine controller receives the instruction and executes the new parameters immediately after the current production cycle ends.
[0074] In this embodiment, it needs to be specifically pointed out that the early warning threshold can be 0.3, and the constraint condition specifically refers to that the parameter adjustment needs to meet the physical limit of the injection molding machine equipment, for example, the maximum adjustable pressure holding pressure is 100MPa, the minimum is 70MPa, the material property requirement, for example, the melt temperature cannot exceed the material decomposition temperature, and the production efficiency constraint, for example, after the cooling time adjustment, the production cycle cannot be extended by more than 10%; the optimization algorithm can be a constrained nonlinear programming algorithm, for example, a sequential quadratic programming method SQP, or a greedy optimization algorithm based on a correlation matrix; the form of the optimization scheme is parameter adjustment suggestion + expected effect, for example, parameter adjustment suggestion: the pressure holding pressure is increased from 80MPa to 85MPa; the mold temperature is reduced from 65℃ to 62℃; the pressure holding time is extended from 5s to 5.2s; the expected effect: the comprehensive risk R is reduced from 0.7 to 0.25, the shrinkage-L2-close-to-gate defect probability is reduced from 85% to 5%, and DS1≤0.8.
[0075] It needs to be further explained that the parameter adjustment effect data is collected after the execution of the optimization scheme, including quality end data and process end data, the quality end data includes new cycle product images, standardized defect text and comprehensive defect score, the process end data includes new cycle process parameter real-time value, single parameter risk index and comprehensive risk index; the comprehensive risk index deviation and the comprehensive defect score deviation are calculated, the deviation reasons are traced back through the defect-process correlation matrix, and are respectively transmitted to the defect score quantification module and the process risk dynamic analysis module, and the correlation matrix, the single parameter weight V of risk calculation and the defect score weight parameter W are iterated.

The calculation of the single-parameter risk index requires obtaining the real-time value X of each parameter in the entire process parameters. j Obtain the optimal target value XT for each parameter in the process standard database. j Maximum allowed running value USL j and allow running minimum LSL values j Through the formula: , The single-parameter risk index R for each parameter is calculated. j Let j represent the j-th parameter in the overall process parameters, based on the single-parameter risk index and parameter weight V for each parameter. j Through the formula: , The comprehensive risk index R is calculated, where all V j The sum is 1. The initial parameter weights are obtained through principal component analysis, and a dynamic parameter adjustment mechanism is constructed to adjust the parameter weights. Process-related closed-loop optimization module: Based on the comprehensive defect score and risk dynamic analysis results, a defect-process correlation matrix is constructed, real-time early warning judgment is performed, reverse optimization scheme is generated, and feedback is given to the defect score quantification module and the process risk dynamic analysis module; The steps for constructing the defect-process correlation matrix are as follows: S2.1: Obtain the comprehensive defect score and standardized defect text from the defect scoring quantification module, and obtain the single-parameter risk index and comprehensive risk index from the process risk dynamic analysis module. Link the two types of data through timestamps to form a sample dataset. S2.2: Using the single-parameter risk index as the input variable and the comprehensive defect score as the output variable, a machine learning algorithm is selected, and the sample dataset is divided into a training set and a test set in an 8:2 ratio to train the defect-process quantitative prediction model. S2.3: Extract the number of standard defect texts as rows of the association matrix, extract the number of process parameters as columns of the association matrix, obtain the contribution of the single-parameter risk index to the defect text based on the defect-process quantitative prediction model as the value of the matrix cell, verify and dynamically update the defect-process association matrix. The steps for generating the reverse optimization scheme are as follows: S3.1: Determine the process parameters that reduce the comprehensive risk index R to below the warning threshold, while ensuring that the predicted comprehensive defect score DS1 < 1, and set constraints. S3.2: Select an optimization algorithm to simulate the impact of different combinations of process parameter adjustments on R and DS1, prioritize adjusting the core process parameters with high contribution in the defect-process correlation matrix, and output the optimization scheme; S3.3: The optimization plan is automatically sent to the injection molding machine controller via the OPC UA interface. After receiving the instruction, the injection molding machine controller immediately executes the new parameters after the current production cycle ends.
