AQCplus – Quality parameter enables autonomous real-time process control

The key quality parameter of AQCplus is the part weight. After each injection molding cycle, the weight is measured by a scale and fed directly back to the machine control system. Deviations – such as those caused by fluctuating material densities in recycled materials, additives, or fillers – are immediately detected and directly adjusted by autonomously modifying the hold pressure profile within the injection molding process.

Autonomous production in the smallest footprint: AQCplus live on the PX 80 production cell
The space-saving production cell of the new all-electric PX 80 (800 kN clamping force) at the KraussMaffei booth demonstrates a compact, productive, and cost-effective solution for manufacturing technical components. The LRXplus linear robot removes the polyamide electronic components from the mold (partner: Wieland Electric), weighs them, and places them on an integrated conveyor belt inside the machine enclosure.
