Correlation of Geometrical Specifications for Flexible Quality Control in the Manufacturing of Plastic Products

This article presents an analysis to meet the demand for process-optimized applications in industrial plastic production. Since in an injection molding process primarily plastic products are created, which underlie a strict quality control, machine technicians thereby carry out worker operator control in order to ensure even production drawing quality. Thereby injection molding products are qualified among others via component dimensions. Due to the complex accessibility of molded part geometry, these controls underlie high and varying sensor influence. Due to technology advancement and increasingly accurate quality requirements, the demand for process-optimized quality controls is continuously growing. First, the complexity of geometrical quality control from workpieces is presented. Practical and simulative tests to determine the correlation of geometric specifications are examined by means of a variable injection molding process. Finally, the new control dimensions' relevance shall be implemented via appropriate correlation evidence
