Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of tobacco machinery testing and process control technology, and in particular to a method for testing parameters of tobacco packaging equipment, electronic equipment, and storage medium. Background Technology

[0002] Cigarette production is a high-precision, automated, and continuous processing industry. As the core terminal equipment of the cigarette packaging production line, the operational stability and accuracy of process parameters of cigarette packaging equipment directly determine the final quality of the cigarette product. During the packaging process, key process parameters such as the sealing pressure of the forming rollers, the transmission pressure, and the soldering iron temperature are crucial factors affecting the forming precision, sealing performance, and appearance quality of the cigarette pack, directly impacting whether the cigarette product meets industry quality standards and market demands.

[0003] With the widespread application of technologies such as artificial intelligence, big data analytics, and the Industrial Internet in the tobacco industry, cigarette production faces increasingly stringent demands for higher precision in sensing equipment operating status, stronger control over process parameters, and data-driven support for maintenance decisions. Against this backdrop, equipment parameter detection is no longer merely a tool for parameter verification; it has evolved into a core foundation for quality control, equipment health management, and the implementation of intelligent manufacturing in cigarette production. This places unprecedentedly stringent requirements on the dynamism, standardization, metrological accuracy, and data applicability of parameter detection methods. However, currently, parameter detection for cigarette packaging equipment in the cigarette production industry still predominantly employs traditional methods, primarily relying on the equipment's built-in parameter display screen for reading verification, which presents significant technical shortcomings. Because the parameters displayed on the equipment's built-in screen inherently deviate from the actual parameters during equipment operation, and because it cannot capture instantaneous changes in core process parameters under dynamic operating conditions, the parameter detection results lose accuracy and reference value, failing to meet the high-precision and intelligent quality control requirements of cigarette production.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for an online detection method for the parameters of tobacco packaging equipment to address the shortcomings of existing detection methods. Summary of the Invention

[0005] This invention provides a method, electronic device, and storage medium for detecting parameters of tobacco packaging equipment. Based on a packing detection device, it can detect the operating parameters of tobacco packaging equipment in real time, realize the collection of real parameters throughout the entire packaging process, and achieve high detection accuracy.

[0006] According to one aspect of the present invention, a method for detecting parameters of tobacco packaging equipment is provided, the method comprising: The control device for tracking and detecting the target cigarette pack is placed on the input station of the cigarette pack conveying track of the cigarette packaging equipment; wherein the outlines of the tracking and detecting device and the target cigarette pack are consistent, and the size difference between the tracking and detecting device and the target cigarette pack is within a preset error range; Start the tobacco packaging equipment so that the pack inspection device and the target tobacco pack move synchronously with the tobacco pack conveyor track and enter each inspection station to complete the processing flow; During the processing of the cigarette packaging equipment with the packing inspection device and the target cigarette pack, the packing inspection device monitors the operating parameters of each inspection station on the cigarette pack conveying track in real time.

[0007] According to another aspect of the present invention, an electronic device is provided, the electronic device comprising: At least one processor; and a memory communicatively connected to the at least one processor; wherein the memory stores a computer program executable by the at least one processor, the computer program being executed by the at least one processor to enable the at least one processor to perform a method for detecting parameters of a tobacco packaging equipment according to any embodiment of the present invention.

[0008] According to another aspect of the present invention, a computer-readable storage medium is provided, the computer-readable storage medium storing computer instructions, the computer instructions being configured to cause a processor to execute and implement a method for detecting parameters of a tobacco packaging equipment as described in any embodiment of the present invention.

[0009] The technical solution of this invention involves controlling the placement of a packing inspection device and a target cigarette pack onto the input station of the cigarette pack conveyor track of a cigarette packaging equipment. The packing inspection device and the target cigarette pack have identical outlines, and the dimensional difference between them is within a preset error range. The cigarette packaging equipment is then started, causing the packing inspection device and the target cigarette pack to move synchronously along the cigarette pack conveyor track, entering each inspection station to complete the processing flow. During the processing of the packing inspection device and the target cigarette pack by the cigarette packaging equipment, the packing inspection device monitors the operating parameters of each inspection station on the cigarette pack conveyor track in real time. This technical solution, based on the real-time monitoring of the operating parameters of the cigarette packaging equipment by the packing inspection device, enables the acquisition of real parameters throughout the entire packaging process, resulting in high detection accuracy.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0014] It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this invention are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such data can be interchanged where appropriate so that the embodiments of the invention described herein can be implemented in orders other than those illustrated or described herein. Furthermore, the terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion; for example, a process, method, system, product, or apparatus that comprises a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units explicitly listed, but may include other steps or units not explicitly listed or inherent to such processes, methods, products, or apparatus.

[0015] Example 1 Figure 1 This is a flowchart of a parameter detection method for tobacco packaging equipment according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. This embodiment is applicable to situations requiring real-time detection of parameters of tobacco packaging equipment, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the method includes: S110. Control the packing detection device and the target cigarette pack to be placed on the input station of the cigarette pack conveying track of the cigarette packaging equipment; wherein, the outline of the packing detection device and the target cigarette pack are consistent, and the size difference between the packing detection device and the target cigarette pack is within a preset error range.

[0016] In this embodiment, the tobacco packaging equipment is a main equipment that directly completes the forming and packaging of individual packs or cartons of cigarettes.

[0017] The target cigarette packs are either single packs or cartons.

[0018] In this solution, the outline of the pack inspection device is consistent with that of the target cigarette pack, covering the corner curvature and thickness, and the difference in size between the two is controlled within a preset error range of 2mm. It can smoothly pass through all processing stations of the cigarette pack conveying track, forming wheel, heat sealing mechanism and other processes of the cigarette packaging equipment without interfering with the original components of the cigarette packaging equipment.

[0019] Furthermore, the packing inspection device and the target cigarette pack are placed on the input station of the cigarette pack conveying track of the cigarette packaging equipment, so that the packing inspection device completely simulates the cigarette pack and enters the entire process station of cigarette pack packaging in accordance with the normal operating rhythm of the equipment.

[0020] Specifically, without any structural modifications to the tobacco packaging equipment, the pack detection device can be directly placed into the pack conveying track of the tobacco packaging equipment as a simulated cigarette pack. The device is positioned using the track's own limiting structure, without the need for additional fixing components.

[0021] In this plan, a non-intrusive pre-operation test is conducted: the tobacco packaging equipment is started under no-load operation, and the packing detection device completes 1-2 full-process packing tests along the tobacco pack conveyor track. This verifies whether the packing detection device can pass through all workstations smoothly, whether it interferes with the original components of the tobacco packaging equipment, and whether the sensors are in normal contact, ensuring the feasibility and safety of packing without any modifications.

[0022] Optionally, the pack detection device and the target cigarette pack are arranged sequentially at the input station according to a preset station interval.

[0023] The preset workstation interval can be set according to the parameter detection requirements. For example, the workstation interval can be set to 1 workstation.

[0024] In this solution, the pack inspection device and the target cigarette pack are arranged sequentially at the input station according to a preset station interval. The pack inspection device can be set in front of, behind, or in the middle of the target cigarette pack.

[0025] The arrangement interval and relative position of the pack detection device and the target cigarette pack can be flexibly adjusted to meet the parameter acquisition requirements under different detection scenarios.

[0026] Optionally, before controlling the pack inspection device and the target cigarette pack to be placed on the input station of the cigarette pack conveyor track of the cigarette packaging equipment, the method further includes: Set the acquisition frequency and detection station of the heel pack detection device.

[0027] In this solution, the sampling frequency of the packing detection device is dynamically matched with the operating cycle of the tobacco packaging equipment to ensure that at least 5 sets of valid data are collected at each detection station (e.g., the sampling frequency is set to 50-100Hz at rated speed) to avoid parameter omissions due to excessive equipment speed.

[0028] In this embodiment, inspection stations are set up in the packaging process. The inspection stations include auxiliary material conveying and positioning station, forming mold cavity station, sealing and heating station, folding station, and package exit inspection station.

[0029] Furthermore, before placing the pack inspection device and the target cigarette pack into the cigarette pack conveying track input station of the cigarette packaging equipment, the process standard parameters of the target cigarette pack specifications (such as heat sealing temperature 150±5℃, folding forming pressure 0.6±0.2MPa) are pre-entered as a benchmark for subsequent data comparison and analysis.

[0030] By pre-configuring the acquisition frequency, testing station, and process standard parameters, precise matching with the equipment cycle time is achieved, ensuring the integrity and reliability of the entire process testing data and providing an accurate benchmark for subsequent comparative analysis.

[0031] S120. Start the tobacco packaging equipment, so that the pack inspection device and the target tobacco pack move synchronously with the tobacco pack conveyor track and enter each inspection station to complete the processing flow.

[0032] In this solution, the cigarette packaging equipment is activated, and the pack inspection device and the target cigarette pack follow-up equipment complete the entire packaging process of cigarette pack conveying, hot sealing, extrusion, and forming.

[0033] S130. During the processing of the cigarette packaging equipment with the packing detection device and the target cigarette pack, the packing detection device detects the operating parameters of each detection station on the cigarette pack conveying track in real time.

[0034] The operating parameters include temperature and pressure.

[0035] Furthermore, during the processing of the cigarette packaging equipment and the target cigarette pack, the pack inspection device collects real-time operating parameters at each inspection station inside the equipment.

[0036] The technical solution of this invention involves controlling the placement of a packing inspection device and a target cigarette pack onto the input station of the cigarette pack conveyor track of a cigarette packaging equipment. The packing inspection device and the target cigarette pack have identical outlines, and the dimensional difference between them is within a preset error range. The cigarette packaging equipment is then started, causing the packing inspection device and the target cigarette pack to move synchronously along the cigarette pack conveyor track, entering each inspection station to complete the processing flow. During the processing of the packing inspection device and the target cigarette pack by the cigarette packaging equipment, the packing inspection device monitors the operating parameters of each inspection station on the cigarette pack conveyor track in real time. By implementing this technical solution, based on the real-time monitoring of the operating parameters of the cigarette packaging equipment by the packing inspection device, the collection of real parameters throughout the entire packaging process can be achieved, resulting in high detection accuracy.

[0037] Example 2 Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the parameter detection process of a tobacco packaging equipment according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention. The relationship between this embodiment and the above embodiments is a detailed description of the process by which the packing inspection device detects the parameters of the tobacco packaging equipment. For example... Figure 2 As shown, the method includes: S210. The control device for tracking and detecting the target cigarette pack is placed on the input station of the cigarette pack conveying track of the cigarette packaging equipment; wherein the outlines of the tracking and detecting device and the target cigarette pack are consistent, and the size difference between the tracking and detecting device and the target cigarette pack is within a preset error range.

[0038] S220. Start the tobacco packaging equipment so that the pack inspection device and the target tobacco pack move synchronously with the tobacco pack conveyor track and enter each inspection station to complete the processing flow.

[0039] S230. During the processing of the cigarette packaging equipment with the pack inspection device and the target cigarette pack, the operating parameters of each inspection station on the cigarette pack conveying track are detected in real time by the temperature sensor and the pressure sensor.

[0040] In this plan, Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the bag detection device provided in Embodiment 2 of this application, as shown below. Figure 3 As shown, the pack inspection device incorporates a temperature sensor and a pressure sensor. At least one set of temperature and pressure sensors is provided, with the temperature sensor having an accuracy of ±0.1℃ and the pressure sensor an accuracy of ±0.02MPa. This pack inspection device requires no modification to the existing equipment, nor does it require additional sensors or external devices. It can completely simulate the shape of a real cigarette pack and achieve full-process real parameter acquisition through direct contact with the equipment, effectively filling a gap in the industry.

[0041] In this embodiment, the sensor's contact surface is flush with the outer shell of the packaging detection device, with no protruding structure, ensuring close contact with the processing parts of the tobacco packaging equipment while not affecting the original operating status of the equipment.

[0042] Furthermore, during the packaging process, temperature sensors collect the temperature at each workstation in real time, and pressure sensors collect the actual pressure at each workstation in real time. The data collection process does not affect the original operating speed and processing accuracy of the tobacco packaging equipment, and can form a raw parameter dataset that is precisely correlated with the workstation and time.

[0043] In this embodiment, by adjusting the placement posture of the packing detection device, the contact surfaces of the temperature sensor and pressure sensor on the device are aligned with the action surfaces of key processing stations such as the inner wall of the forming wheel mold cavity, the sealing heating plate, and the folding roller, ensuring that the sensors can accurately collect the actual parameters of each station during the packing process.

[0044] Optionally, the pack detection device also has a built-in attitude sensor; Accordingly, during the processing of the cigarette packaging equipment on the pack inspection device and the target cigarette pack, the operating parameters of each inspection station on the cigarette pack conveying track are monitored in real time by the temperature sensor and the pressure sensor, including: During the processing of the cigarette packaging equipment with the pack detection device and the target cigarette pack, the operating status of the cigarette packaging equipment is collected in real time based on the attitude sensor; Based on the operating status, the temperature sensor and the pressure sensor are activated to monitor the operating parameters of each detection station on the cigarette pack conveying track in real time.

[0045] Among them, the attitude sensor is a sensing device that can detect the operating status of tobacco packaging equipment in real time. It usually integrates sensing units such as accelerometers and gyroscopes, and can output information such as tilt angle, angular velocity, acceleration, and attitude changes of the equipment during operation. This information is used to determine whether the equipment is in a normal working posture, thereby providing data support for equipment status monitoring.

[0046] In this plan, such as Figure 3 As shown, the pack inspection device also has a built-in attitude sensor. Based on the attitude sensor, the device collects the operating status of the cigarette packaging equipment in real time and simultaneously activates the temperature sensor and pressure sensor to detect the operating parameters of each inspection station on the cigarette pack conveying track.

[0047] Specifically, when the operating status of the tobacco packaging equipment is detected as "started," the temperature sensor and pressure sensor are simultaneously activated to detect the operating parameters of each detection station on the tobacco pack conveyor track; or, when the operating status of the tobacco packaging equipment is detected as "operating to the detection station," the temperature sensor and pressure sensor are simultaneously activated to detect the operating parameters of each detection station on the tobacco pack conveyor track.

[0048] In this embodiment, the pack inspection device does not require an additional start command. It identifies the equipment's operating status through a built-in attitude sensor and automatically and synchronously starts the parameter acquisition function. As a simulation of cigarette packs following the processing rhythm of real cigarette packs, it passes through all preset inspection stations in sequence without any human intervention, completely simulating the packaging environment and equipment operating status of real cigarette packs.

[0049] By automatically identifying the operating status of tobacco packaging equipment through attitude sensors, synchronous start of parameter acquisition and fully automated detection are achieved, accurately simulating the real tobacco packaging process without human intervention, resulting in higher detection accuracy and reliability.

[0050] Optionally, the bag detection device also has a built-in wireless transmission module; Accordingly, during the processing of the cigarette packaging equipment on the packing inspection device and the target cigarette pack, after the packing inspection device monitors the operating parameters of each inspection station on the cigarette pack conveying track in real time, the method further includes: The operating parameters are output through the wireless transmission module.

[0051] Specifically, the packaging inspection device will store and output the collected operating parameters to form a complete curve of real parameters for the packaging process, thus completely solving the problems of distorted display parameters and lack of real data for display parameter calibration.

[0052] In this plan, such as Figure 3 As shown, the bag inspection device also has a built-in wireless transmission module, which uses WiFi or Bluetooth wireless transmission.

[0053] In this embodiment, the operating parameters are uploaded to the data processing terminal in real time via a wireless transmission module, with a transmission delay of no more than 100ms, effectively avoiding data loss. The device has a built-in 16GB storage space and supports offline storage, ensuring data integrity and preventing data loss even in environments with poor wireless signals in the workshop.

[0054] Specifically, the wireless transmission module uploads the operating parameters to the data processing terminal in real time.

[0055] With the dual guarantee of real-time wireless transmission and local offline storage, reliable uploading and complete recording of cigarette pack processing parameters are achieved, effectively solving the problems of distorted screen display parameters and lack of real calibration data.

[0056] Optionally, the bag detection device also has a built-in battery module, which powers the temperature sensor, the pressure sensor, the attitude sensor, and the wireless transmission module.

[0057] In this plan, such as Figure 3As shown, the bag inspection device also has a built-in battery module. The battery module uses a rechargeable lithium battery with a battery life of no less than 8 hours; the device does not require an external power supply or wiring, truly achieving a design that requires no installation or modification.

[0058] Specifically, the temperature sensor, pressure sensor, attitude sensor, and wireless transmission module are powered by a battery module.

[0059] It uses a built-in battery module for independent power supply, eliminating the need for external power supply and wiring, achieving device operation without installation or modification, and providing stable and reliable battery life.

[0060] Optionally, after outputting the operating parameters through the wireless transmission module, the method further includes: The operating parameters are standardized to obtain operating data; The operating data is compared with the data displayed on the screen of the tobacco packaging equipment to obtain the comparison result; The display data of the display screen is calibrated based on the comparison results to obtain calibrated display data, and the positions of the mechanical parts of the tobacco packaging equipment are adjusted based on the calibrated display data.

[0061] In this solution, the data processing terminal standardizes the operating parameters according to the tobacco industry equipment testing data standards: adding labels such as equipment number, testing time, number of packing cycles, operating speed, and cigarette pack specifications, and removing invalid data (such as interfering data collected from non-workstation areas), thereby forming operating data.

[0062] In this embodiment, a hierarchical storage structure of single-package cycle-multi-package cycle-historical data is adopted to establish a device package parameter detection archive, which supports data traceability and historical comparison, and provides a standardized data foundation for subsequent analysis and application.

[0063] Furthermore, the collected actual operating data is used as the sole quantitative basis: the operating data collected by the packing detection device is compared with the data displayed on the tobacco packaging equipment display screen, the display screen data is calibrated, the position of the mechanical parts of the equipment is precisely adjusted, a unified process parameter standard for the same model of equipment is established, parameter differences caused by human experience are eliminated, and a basis is provided for process parameter adjustment.

[0064] In this solution, the actual parameters of the adjusted equipment are retested using this tracking and testing method to verify the adjustment effect, thus forming a complete data closed loop of testing-data-adjustment-verification.

[0065] The technical solution of this invention involves controlling the packing inspection device and the target cigarette pack to be placed on the input station of the cigarette pack conveying track of the cigarette packaging equipment; wherein the outlines of the packing inspection device and the target cigarette pack are consistent, and the size difference between the packing inspection device and the target cigarette pack is within a preset error range; the cigarette packaging equipment is started, so that the packing inspection device and the target cigarette pack move synchronously with the cigarette pack conveying track and enter each inspection station to complete the processing flow; during the processing of the packing inspection device and the target cigarette pack by the cigarette packaging equipment, the operating parameters of each inspection station on the cigarette pack conveying track are monitored in real time by temperature sensors and pressure sensors. By implementing this technical solution, no equipment modification or contact-based dual-core detection logic for cigarette packs is required. Without altering the equipment or adding extra sensors or external components, it directly contacts the equipment in the form of a simulated cigarette pack to complete the full-process real parameter acquisition, filling a technological gap in the industry. It achieves full-process actual operating parameter acquisition for tobacco packaging equipment, effectively solving industry pain points such as unverifiable equipment display values ​​and missing dynamic process parameters, allowing for precise understanding of the equipment's internal operating status. The solution employs a no-additions design, requiring no modification to the original structure of the tobacco packaging equipment; simply placing the pack-following detection device as a simulated cigarette pack in the track is sufficient for operation. The preparation time for a single device is no more than 10 seconds. Minutes, no structural damage, no operational interference, and no additional maintenance costs; can be rapidly deployed across multiple models and workshops. It constructs a complete data loop encompassing data collection, standardized processing, multi-dimensional analysis, and scenario-based applications. Based on real-world testing data, it enables quantitative and standardized adjustments to key parameters such as equipment mechanical position and temperature, moving away from traditional manual experience-based debugging. It establishes a quantitative correlation between equipment adjustment parameters, actual operating parameters, and product quality, unifying process standards and stabilizing packaging quality. Simultaneously, it solves the problem of inconsistent parameter settings for the same model of tobacco packaging equipment, achieving full equipment process standardization, establishing a data link between equipment adjustment and product quality, and significantly reducing packaging defect rates. The device size is compatible with tobacco pack height, making it compatible with mainstream tobacco packaging equipment and various cigarette pack specifications. Operation is simple, requiring no specialized technicians; frontline employees can complete the testing. It possesses strong practicality and universality, making it suitable for large-scale application in tobacco production enterprises.

[0066] An example is the application of a contact-type cigarette pack and actual parameter detection method for the ZB416 hard-pack cigarette packaging machine.

[0067] (1) Preparation of testing equipment: Use a pack-following testing device that is exactly the same size as the ZB416 hard pack cigarette pack; (2) Data acquisition parameter settings: The data acquisition frequency is set to 60Hz through the industrial tablet wireless connection device. The data acquisition stations are key stations such as auxiliary material conveying and positioning, forming wheel mold cavity, transparent paper folding and packaging, sealing and heating, and unpacking. The process standard parameter thresholds are: forming pressure 0.6±0.1MPa, heat sealing temperature 150±5℃.

[0068] (3) Packaging Inspection Execution: The packaging inspection device is placed on the conveyor track one station apart from the actual cigarette pack. It follows the equipment to complete the entire packaging process of the hard-pack cigarette pack, and collects the actual temperature of the hot-sealing station and the actual pressure of the forming station in real time. It follows the cigarette pack to complete one full-process packaging (8 seconds), and collects a total of 5 sets of data (60Hz×8 seconds) from each station to form a dataset that is accurately associated with the station. (4) Real data acquisition: The actual temperature of the hot sealing station of the equipment was 172℃ (the temperature displayed on the equipment screen was 185℃, with a deviation of 13℃), and the actual value of the molding pressure was 0.32MPa. (5) Equipment parameter calibration and adjustment: Based on the actual test data, the temperature of the soldering iron is corrected to 172℃, and the position of the parts in the mechanical forming station is adjusted according to the actual pressure data; (6) Standardized process: Based on this real data, a unified process standard for the ZB416 model was formulated to eliminate parameter differences within the same model; (7) Application effect: The defect rate of hard-pack cigarette packs with poor sealing, burn damage and poor molding decreased by 92%, and the process parameters of the same model of equipment were 100% consistent.

[0069] In this embodiment, a contact-type bag detection device based on measurement attributes is used.

[0070] After specialized metrological calibration, the contact-type package inspection device possesses the attributes of a metrological instrument. The collected data conforms to the metrological standards of the tobacco industry and can serve as the formal basis for equipment metrological verification and parameter calibration, filling the gap in the industry for the lack of metrological testing methods for dynamic parameters of tobacco packaging equipment.

[0071] Furthermore, the application of parameter data modeling and equipment health management for the ZB416 hard-pack cigarette packaging machine based on the contact-type packing detection device.

[0072] (1) All-dimensional data acquisition of contact-type bag tracking device The pack inspection device is placed at the cigarette pack input station and accompanies the equipment through the entire process of conveying, hot sealing, extrusion, and forming. During equipment operation, multi-dimensional traceable data is collected simultaneously, including: a. Real-time sequential temperature, peak temperature, temperature fluctuation, and heat sealing duration at the heat sealing station; b. Real-time pressure curve, steady-state pressure value, and pressure impact amplitude at the molding station; c. Data on dwell time at each workstation, runtime sequence deviation, and synchronization of mechanism movements; d. Parameter drift, thermal inertia change, and mechanical stress correlation data during long-term equipment operation.

[0073] (2) Constructing a device operation data model based on the collected data The data collected by the aforementioned packaging detection device is used as the core input to construct the ZB416 packaging machine equipment operation characteristic data model, forming a standardized equipment health benchmark model that includes temperature characteristics, pressure characteristics, time sequence characteristics, and mechanism dynamic characteristics, and establishing the correspondence between "normal working conditions - parameter characteristics - equipment status".

[0074] (3) Algorithm analysis and equipment health status assessment We analyze real data collected from bag tracking detection using data fitting, trend analysis, and anomaly detection algorithms. By comparing measured data with baseline values ​​from the health model, hidden abnormalities such as soldering iron aging, decreased heating efficiency, increased mechanical clearance, wear of the forming mechanism, and asynchronous transmission can be identified. Quantitatively calculate equipment health status, locate deteriorated parts and the degree of deterioration, and achieve quantitative assessment of equipment health status.

[0075] (4) Predictive maintenance and health management of equipment Based on algorithm analysis results, predictive management of equipment can be implemented. a. Based on characteristic data such as continuously increasing temperature fluctuations and slowing thermal response, predict the failure trend of the soldering iron heating module in advance and provide preventive replacement recommendations; b. Based on data such as molding pressure deviation and timing offset, predict potential wear and loosening of mechanical mechanisms and guide precise point-to-point maintenance; c. Establish a full life-cycle health record for equipment to achieve a shift from "reactive maintenance and scheduled maintenance" to "predictive maintenance and health-oriented operation and maintenance".

[0076] (5) Precise equipment adjustment based on real data Based on traceable data from package inspection, quantitative corrections are made to the position of mechanical parts and the temperature of soldering irons, standardizing the process for the same model of equipment and completely eliminating parameter differences caused by experience-based debugging.

[0077] (6) Application effect Relying on the full-process data acquisition capability of the pack inspection device, a data model that can support algorithm analysis has been established, enabling online assessment of equipment health status and early prediction of faults. Unplanned equipment downtime rate has been reduced by more than 70%, and maintenance accuracy has been improved by 85%. At the same time, all equipment parameter adjustments are supported by quantitative data, reducing the defect rate of cigarette pack sealing and forming by 92%, and achieving 100% standardization of process parameters for the same model of equipment.
