Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If manual transportation of test equipment and manual operation of host computer are used, then the testing process can be completed, but the labor cost increases and testing efficiency decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The system enables automated equipment transportation and automated host computer operation through the intelligent transport device and scheduling host computer, eliminating the need for manual intervention in routine testing tasks
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces manual mechanical operations with an automated control system that uses computer algorithms and automated transport mechanisms to perform equipment movement and testing operations
2Reliability
If manual recording of test data is performed, then the testing process can be completed, but errors in recording and missed records occur
Solution Approach 1:
The scheduling host computer automatically receives, records, and processes test data from the testing equipment, creating a closed-loop feedback system that eliminates manual recording errors and ensures data integrity
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces an automated data transmission interface between the testing equipment and the scheduling host computer, serving as an intermediary that accurately transfers test data without human intervention
3Productivity
If equipment is transported without verification, then the transport process is simple, but unexpected transport occurs reducing testing efficiency
Solution Approach 1:
The scheduling host computer verifies equipment status and transport conditions before initiating equipment movement, performing preliminary checks to ensure only appropriate equipment is transported to the correct locations
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements verification feedback mechanisms where the scheduling host computer confirms equipment identity and destination before transport execution, preventing erroneous transportation

AI summary
This application provides a forming-machine equipment testing method, an apparatus, a system, and a computer-readable storage medium. The method includes: determining, by a scheduling host computer, an equipment transport task for the equipment after a task start time of the equipment is reached; determining, by the scheduling host computer, whether the equipment meets the equipment transport task; and if the equipment meets the equipment transport task, instructing, by scheduling host computer, an intelligent transport device to transport the equipment to a corresponding target location, so as to control the equipment to execute an equipment test task in a target location. In this application, a task start time for each type of equipment is prestored and used to trigger the scheduling host computer to control a piece of equipment to execute a corresponding test task. This implements periodic automatic execution of test tasks and simplifies management, and further prevents the occurrence of problems such as an error in record or missed record, improving the accuracy of test tasks. In addition, a piece of equipment is transported to a target location only if an equipment transport task is met, preventing unexpected transport and improving the efficiency of task execution.
