An apparatus for the manufacture and unloading of preforms for the manufacture of plastic containers includes a device for the injection molding of preforms and a device for the cooling and extraction of the preforms from the molding device, and further includes a device for the selective extraction of a predetermined subset of preforms supported by the unloading plate in an orderly manner along at least one pickup direction. The apparatus also includes a component for the orderly transfer of the predetermined subset of preforms to a control and inspection device adapted to perform at least one control on the predetermined subset of preforms.

The invention relates to a packaging method and to an associated packaging device (1) for packaging injection-molded plastic parts (2), which are pipette tips or medical reaction vessels, the injection-molded plastic parts (2) being arranged in cavity-pure subgroups (6) and then subjected to lateral inspection sub-subgroup (10) per sub-subgroup (10).

In an injection molding system, an insert formed with a cavity or an insert member for molding an insert-molded article is shot by a camera, and the insert or the insert member to be inserted into a mold is identified based on a characteristic of the insert or the insert member shot by the camera and previously stored data on the insert or the insert member.

A injection molding system extracts molding data and inspection data having a difference between a first position information of a conveyance part where a molded article produced by an injection molding apparatus is picked up by a conveyor device and a second position information of the conveyance part where the molded article is inspected by an inspection device is equal to a predetermined distance between a pickup position and an inspection position, and stores the molding data and the inspection data in association with each other as a set. This configuration makes it possible to associate molding data of an injection molding apparatus when producing a molded article and inspection data with each other to control the quality of molded articles.

A plastic injection-moulding machine includes an injection unit for processing a plastic mass to be moulded, and a closing unit having an injection-moulding tool having at least one cavity, into which the plastic mass processed by the injection unit is injected to produce a moulded part. A machine controller controls the injection unit and the closing unit, and a user interface device, which has at least one input means and at least one output means. The at least one output means is designed as a screen. At least one camera is provided to record a region of the plastic injection-moulding machine lying behind the user interface device, with the machine controller being designed to display the region recorded by the camera on the screen.

A plastic injection-moulding machine includes an injection unit for processing a plastic mass, and a closing unit having an injection-moulding tool with a cavity, into which plastic mass is injected by the injection unit to produce a moulded part. A machine controller controls the injection unit and the closing unit according to a machine program running on the machine controller. A user interface device communicates with the machine controller and has a screen for displaying text information and/or image information. The machine controller includes a data memory for storing the text information and/or image information in the form of data sets, and a process generator for manually assigning each state parameter of the plastic injection-moulding machine a data set. The process generator automatically writes the data set into the data memory or automatically reads out the data set for display on the screen in accordance with the associated state parameter.

A manufacturing method of a semiconductor device includes the steps of: preparing a lead frame; mounting a plurality of semiconductor chips on the lead frame; and sealing one portion of the lead frame with a sealing resin. The resin-sealing step includes the step of: disposing the lead frame, molds having main surfaces on which cavity parts are formed, the lead frame being disposed on the main surface of the heated molds; injecting a resin in the main surfaces of the heated molds so as to seal the one portion of the lead frame with the sealing resin; and taking out the lead frame from the heated molds. In the taking-out step, while the lead frame is taken out, the main surfaces of the molds are inspected by using a sensor, and the sensor is cooled and formed integrally with an arm used for taking out the lead frame.

A molding machine management system includes a molding machine molding a plurality of molded products using a molding mold having a plurality of cavities, a camera capturing a plurality of first images of the plurality of molded products, respectively, and an inspection device inspecting the plurality of molded products. The plurality of first images, a second image of a parting surface of the molding mold, a plurality of inspection results corresponding to the plurality of molded products, and information on the plurality of cavities are displayed on the same screen of a display. The plurality of molded products in the plurality of first images are respectively displayed to overlap positions of corresponding cavities of the plurality of cavities of the parting surface in the second image.

A method and a device for detecting a geometric feature of consistent molded parts takes into account the different stages of cooling due to different durations of transport of the individual removed molded parts to the inspection system. Both the geometric feature and the temperature of each molded part is measured. The detected geometric features are corrected using a calibration function taking into account the measured temperatures.

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.
