An information processing system includes: an acquisition unit that acquires waveform data obtained through an operation of control target equipment; an analysis unit that extracts, based on a relationship of variables included in the acquired waveform data, a first variable that is at least a portion of the variables and a second variable that is at least another portion of the variables, that derives variables corresponding to the second variables based on the first variable, and that defines characteristics of the control target equipment based on the derived variables and the second variable; and an output unit that outputs information used in controlling the control target equipment based on the characteristics of the control target equipment.

A feeder according to an embodiment includes: a weight-type feeder including a hopper to which a raw material is supplied, and a discharging port from which the raw material is discharged; and a volume-type feeder including a hopper to which the raw material discharged from the discharging port is supplied, and a discharging port from which the raw material is discharged. The volume-type feeder repeats the discharging of the raw material from the discharging port and the stopping of the discharging, and the weight-type feeder continuously discharges the raw material from the discharging port to the hopper during which the discharging of the raw material from the discharging port and the stopping of the discharging are performed.

A method of producing an iron core product may include: substantially simultaneously putting resin materials into each of a plurality of first accommodating portions formed in a heating portion; substantially simultaneously initiating heating, by the heating portion, of the resin materials disposed in the first accommodating portions; and supplying a molten resin from the first accommodating portions to resin forming regions provided in a core body.

A plasticizing device includes a plasticizing mechanism including a feeding port for receiving a material and configured to plasticize the material to generate a melted material and a material feeding mechanism configured to feed the material to the plasticizing mechanism. The material feeding mechanism includes a housing including a depositing port communicating with the feeding port, the housing storing the material, and a rotating member housed in the housing and capable of rotating along an inner edge of the housing. A plurality of through-holes are provided in the rotating member at intervals along an outer circumference of the rotating member. When the rotating member rotates and any one of the plurality of through-holes and the depositing port communicate, the material stored in the housing is fed from the feeding port to the plasticizing mechanism through the depositing port.

A molded article management apparatus includes a processor; and a memory storing instructions that cause the processor to execute a process, wherein the process includes storing identification information of each molded article manufactured by an injection molding machine in association with a material loss amount per molded article manufactured during a set period. The material loss amount is an amount of resin that does not become the molded article, of an amount of resin injected from the injection molding machine during the set period, and the storing includes dividing the material loss amount into a waste amount and a recycle amount and storing the waste amount and the recycle amount.

An injection molding system includes a molding device, an inspection device configured to inspect a molded product and a control device that includes a storage unit, and a reception unit configured to receive a change content of a parameter included in a standard molding condition. The control device executes a first control of forming the molded product under a second molding condition in which the parameter is changed based on the change content, a second control of forming the molded product under a third molding condition in which the same parameter is changed, a third control of associating the second molding condition with an inspection result of the molded product formed under the second molding condition and storing the association, and a fourth control of associating the third molding condition with the inspection result of the molded product formed under the third molding condition and storing the association.
