Ensuring that only the good parts that meet the quality requirements leave the production line is the supreme goal of every plastics processing operation – in sectors ranging from automotive supply and medical technology to electronics. Reliable process control is the key to achieving this goal. Mold sensors in combination with the ComoNeo allow information to be obtained directly from inside the cavity and are used for this purpose.

On the basis of cavity pressure data the V/P switch over can be controlled, for example through the continuous automatic algorithm of the ComoNeoSWITCH option. The ComoNeo Multiflow option can also balance the hot runner system based on the mold cavity pressure – no matter which machines, molds and peripherals are in use. Using evaluation objects as monitoring functions, the parts can be sorted on the basis of the cavity pressure curves.

All relevant molding data is fully documented. The course guides the user through the functionalities of the ComoNeo and shows step by step how to use the device to boost the efficiency in plastics processing.

About ComoNeo – Process Monitoring System for Injection Molding and Composite Applications Course

The ComoNeo is a process monitoring system for cavity pressure-based optimization, monitoring and documentation of injection molding processes and composite applications developed by Kistler. The ComoNeo is specifically designed for the requirements of injection molding processes.

Using sensors in the mold, the pressure and temperature inside the cavity is measured and can be displayed on the ComoNeo. Furthermore, monitoring, controlling and optimization functions are available.

This course covers the functionalities of the ComoNeo and shows step by step instructions how to set up the ComoNeo. The course begins with the Maintenance menu, followed by the Device settings. After these basic settings have been made the mould can be created and the mold sensors can be assigned. Afterwards the control settings are made. The V/P switch over can be controlled through a user defined pressure threshold or the optional ComoNeoSWITCH feature, an algorithm which automatically and continuously detects the optimal switch over point. With the optional ComoNeoMULTIFLOW feature automatic and continuous hot runner balancing can be achieved on the basis of the cavity pressure curves. The General thresholds allow the user to set real time threshold to control various events during the injection process. The Monitoring menu allows the user to set Evaluation Objects (EO), which are monitoring functions based on specific evaluation criteria. These can be used for the quality evaluation of the parts in the individual cavities. The EO Wizard will select a correct EO Type automatically and provides help setting the EO limits. ComoNeoPREDICT is an optional feature that enables the prediction of the part quality based on a design of experiment (DoE). The Analysis menu allows recording and evaluating molding curve data. Various process trends for analyzing are available with different visualization options.
